Vegemite’s ‘pretty funny’ ask of the Queen

An Australian icon is getting in early to mark a big milestone next year.
2023 marks 100 years since Vegemite was first put on the market and parent company, Bega, wants a letter from the Queen to celebrate.
Hoping to get Her Majesty’s attention, Bega has produced some cheeky billboards to be driven around London landmarks.
Hey Australia, we’re hitting the hundo in 2023 so we took to the streets of London to let Her Majesty The Queen know! 👑 Who thinks we deserve a 100th Birthday letter on our big day? 💛 #VEGEMITE100 #QueensBirthday #LetterfromtheQueen pic.twitter.com/wwJJXJ7MkZ

If successful, Bega’s general manager Adam McNamara believes Vegemite would be the only Australian brand to have received such an honour.
