and HBO’s “The Black List.” Amy Eslami, marketing manager for Grey

Why was it important for Grey Goose® Vodka to be a part of this event?
As our brand — Grey Goose Vodka — grows, we have developed a rather
large percentage of African American customers, and this partnership
provides a way to give back and honor this audience, and pledge our
support.
Why was it significant to show HBO’s ‘The Black List,’ and which part of the film was most memorable for you?”
We thought the ‘The Black List’ was a great way to honor professionals
in the black community. All of the stories were very intriguing, but I
think Chris Rock was amazing.
What is Grey Goose® Vodka doing to advance the brand during the recession?
We want to maintain a buzz in the city. The recession has been hard and
a bit difficult on everyone. But it’s important for us to show our face
and continue being supportive of the community.
