H-E-B 2023 Big Game commercials target love and fanaticism for brand favorites

When you’re in the car and can’t wait to get home before taking a bite from a warm, made-in-store H-E-B Bakery Butter Tortilla, you know. When you take your favorite H-E-B brand sauce with you no matter where you go, you know. And when you relax to the scent of your favorite H-E-B foods in candle form, you know.

For H-E-B, this year’s Big Game commercials get into the hearts, minds, and stomachs of customers, providing some humor to reveal the lengths serious H-E-B fans will go to enjoy their favorite H-E-B brand products.

Set to a hit country song that conveys deep desire and yearning and lends another layer of comedic relief, the commercials highlight a range of quirky scenes that true H-E-B fans will understand. Whether it’s securing H-E-B Creamy Creations ice cream in the passenger-side seatbelt for the ride home, sneaking in a jar of H-E-B That Green Sauce into the stadium to watch the game, making it through the airport security check with dozens of H-E-B Bakery Flour Tortillas crammed into carry-on luggage or slipping into a bath for some peace and relaxation surrounded by H-E-B Flavor Favorites Bakery Butter Tortilla candles, as any H-E-B fan will tell you – if you know, you know.

The 30-second commercials will broadcast between the game’s first and second quarters, then again in the third and fourth quarters, in more than a dozen key Texas markets. The spots will air throughout February. H-E-B’s award-winning marketing team worked with Dallas-based Plot Twist Creativity, the creative agency, for the commercials, which are titled, “If You Know, You Know.”

“At H-E-B, we appreciate that our customers have come to know and love our H-E-B brand products,” said Ashwin Nathan, H-E-B Group Vice President of Marketing. “The love and fanaticism that H-E-B customers have for our brand and our products is like no other, and we think many of our loyal H-E-B fans will see themselves in these commercials.”
