Aldi launches Christmas advert featuring Kevin the Carrot and missing Cauli Dog

Aldi Ireland’s new Christmas advert, debuting on Thursday 5 November, follows the family of the brand’s mascot Kevin the Carrot as they search for their missing pet, Cauli Dog.

The spot opens with Kevin’s daughter, Chantenay, wishing for Cauli Dog’s safe return. The family puts up “LOST” posters and follows tiny paw prints into a snow‑covered landscape. A scarecrow’s dubious directions briefly lead them off course, and a presumed grizzly bear turns out to be a friendly squirrel.

Kevin slips during the trek, providing a comic moment typical of the carrot’s festive adventures. The paw prints eventually guide the family back home, where they discover Cauli Dog snoring inside a Christmas cracker. Chantenay’s wish is fulfilled as she declares, “Cauli, I love you.” The advert closes with Aldi’s tagline, “All You Want For Christmas.”

Louise Cassidy, Customer Interaction Director at Aldi Ireland, said the campaign highlights the joy of being together with loved ones and pets during the festive season, hoping it will bring smiles and Christmas cheer to families across Ireland.
