Fanta plays with great mobile applications

Fanta (Coca-Cola Company) is about to launch a very innovative campaign on mobile across Europe at the end of January. Alongside the classic goodies (wallpapers, ringtones …), and a game, the wap site will offer original applications too.

Fanta: fun & SMS

Genetsis has created in Spain and Portugal a new online campaign for Fanta, Fun & Wave.
