Launching Syrco BASÈ – Bringing a Two-Michelin-Starred Vision to Indonesia

Campaign Overview

In January 2024, Syrco BASÈ opened in Ubud as Indonesia’s first culinary hub led by a two-Michelin-starred chef, Syrco Bakker. The destination combined five distinct spaces—a fine dining atelier, a conscious restaurant, a cocktail bar, a garden, and artisan shops—into one immersive culinary journey rooted in the principles of Traceability, Nature, and Transparency. SCOP3 Group partnered from the pre-opening phase with a comprehensive PR program designed to deliver national and international visibility through media relations, creative storytelling, press releases, and tailored interviews, while producing original content to support both traditional and digital media platforms.

Objective

The campaign aimed to introduce Syrco BASÈ as a groundbreaking addition to Indonesia’s hospitality and dining scene, leveraging the reputation of Chef Syrco Bakker as a two-Michelin-starred talent to establish immediate credibility and strong positioning. Beyond highlighting the restaurant as a dining destination, the goal was to frame Ubud not only as a cultural and wellness hub, but also as a rising luxury gastronomy capital. A focus was placed on embedding Syrco BASÈ’s philosophy of Traceability, Nature, and Transparency into all storytelling, ensuring resonance with both luxury travelers and conscious diners.
