"With a business predicated on speed and a team with its finger on the pulse of culture, Gopuff does more than deliver products — we create experiences," said Tyler Stewart, head of marketing and creative partnerships at Gopuff. "Bring The Magic is a strategic campaign designed to share that magic with a broader audience while also serving as a promise to our existing customers that, with Gopuff, their everyday can be a bit more special. By taking a more refined approach with this campaign and the creative, we're growing up, without growing old."

Based on the question, "what if the everyday could be so much more than everyday?" the film uses a lighthearted and fantastical narrative to give viewed a peek behind the curtain to observe Gopuff's unseen magic.
"There's a belief at Gopuff, from the founders to the micro-fulfillment centers, that there's an opportunity to make life's simplest moments and everyday necessities exciting," said Oriel Davis-Lyons, chief creative officer, Mother New York.
