TfL's Heineken Campaign: Bakerl0.0 Line Rebrand
About this episode
Transport for London generated £375,000 from a Heineken zero percent beer ad campaign by temporarily rebranding the Bakerloo line as Bakerl0.0. The rebranding, which included swapping the letter o for a zero on signs at several stations, received mixed reactions from passengers. While some appreciated the creative marketing, others found it confusing and accessibility-hindering. The mayor confirmed Heineken covered all costs, and TfL extended the name change after consulting with their disability team. Station staff were trained to assist passengers, and stakeholder groups were briefed in advance. The revenue will be used to improve transportation services.
