Today, July 25th, global skincare brand NIVEA is launching the NIVEA 100 Year House in Grand Central Terminal as part of its year-long 100th anniversary celebration. Designed to simulate the experience of walking into a life-sized tin of NIVEA Creme, this highly engaging, interactive and informative experience will allow consumers to witness the brand’s evolution – a journey that began with an iconic tin of skin creme and evolved into NIVEA’s current status as the number-one skincare brand in the world.
The latest in a series of NIVEA worldwide centennial celebrations, the brand is bringing the party to New York City with the free, five-day pop-up experience in the West Wing of Grand Central Terminal’s Vanderbilt Hall.
“For the last 100 years, NIVEA has been an iconic skincare global brand that is built on the trust of our consumers,” says Magnus Jonsson, Vice President of Marketing for Beiersdorf North America. “We’re thrilled to offer them the unique opportunity to experience NIVEA’s 100 year journey in a fresh, interactive fashion. As we look forward to the innovation of the next 100 years, we’re excited to connect with a new generation of NIVEA users.”
Television personality Giuliana Rancic will help NIVEA kick off the week-long pop-up, meeting and greeting consumers as they arrive at the opening on the morning on July 25th. Rancic has a long-standing relationship with the brand, from growing up using NIVEA Creme as a child in Naples, Italy to ringing in 2011 atop the NIVEA Kiss Platform on Times Square on New Year’s Eve, and serving as the brand’s official Valentine’s Day Romance Ambassador earlier this year.
“I’m thrilled to help NIVEA celebrate its 100th birthday,” says Giuliana Rancic. “I can always look back to an emotional moment in my life that relates to NIVEA – from using the product as a child, to sharing a kiss with my husband on the NIVEA Kiss platform last year. I look forward to sharing many more moments with the brand for years to come.”
The trusted NIVEA brand has been a staple in the homes of millions around the globe for decades. As the brand enters its centennial, it pays homage to its heritage while looking ahead to the next generation of fans.
