The challenge

Tmart does one thing ridiculously fast: groceries at your door in 15 minutes. But every delivery app claims speed, and claims are wallpaper. talabat needed Bahrain to feel what 15 minutes means — not read it on a banner.

The idea

Live the 15 Minutes. Our creative direction turned the promise into a thought experiment. Lead actor Ahmed Sharif is handed the grocery list and scoffs at the app — so his mother imagines what fetching it all would actually take: hauling the catch off a boat, raiding the chicken coop, milking the cow, riding the tractor hard for the potatoes. An entire farm epic for one basket of groceries — held up against a single 15-minute tap.

TCCA led concept, creative direction and the campaign build end to end — campaign and creative lead Thyba Khan, executive producer Ali Abdulhusain — and produced the film with Paradox Films under director Omar Rammal, shot across two days on farms, streets and the sea around Bahrain. The same joke then stretched across every surface: film, digital, social GIFs and out-of-home, all asking people to live the 15 minutes — or let Tmart have them.

The result

A full 360° launch with one idea in every placement: a one-minute hero TVC in English and Arabic, social cutdowns and GIF stickers for the feed, and OOH carrying the 15-minute dare across the island. Comedy did what speed claims can't — it made the promise memorable. How we build campaigns that travel like this is in the journal: one idea, every surface — and in how we run integrated campaigns and film production in Bahrain.

The people who got carried away.
