After all, they do say that good food brings good people together! Today, that friendship has since blossomed into a new and exciting partnership. Innovative Group will be working hand-in-hand with Alabama Coasting to promote tourism, culinary experiences, and culture in Alabama’s local communities through its unique mobile asset solutions and experiential marketing initiatives. ## ![Slide1-7](https://blog.innovativegroup.agency/hs-fs/hubfs/Slide1-7.jpg?width=512&name=Slide1-7.jpg) ## The Alabama Coasting Way [Alabama Coasting](https://alabamacoasting.com/Who-We-Are) is a recognized community resource helping businesses, organizations, and local governments reach both tourists and locals. They proudly serve as ambassadors for Alabama’s local communities by telling the stories of the people, places, and businesses that make the area so special. Through their culinary and food sport initiatives, including the new *Alabama Culinary Guide* to be published in late 2019, Alabama Coasting team has two main goals: 1. To ensure that both active locals and visitors have the opportunity to experience the very best of the Alabama Gulf Coast; and 2. that their clients and marketing partners get noticed by the thousands of consumers in this region. These two goals perfectly align with the way Innovative Group does business—helping to create the ultimate experience, while enabling brands to drive revenue and brand awareness through experiential marketing. ## ![54519125_2351459051553197_4878276631354933248_n](https://blog.innovativegroup.agency/hs-fs/hubfs/54519125_2351459051553197_4878276631354933248_n.jpg?width=576&name=54519125_2351459051553197_4878276631354933248_n.jpg) ## How Innovative Group’s Experiential Marketing Expertise Will Help Alabama Coasting Achieve Their Mission Alabama Coasting’s mission is to tell Alabama’s food stories locally, regionally, and internationally.  By harnessing the power of Innovative Group’s exclusive, one-of-a-kind mobile assets and hospitality expertise, event-goers can experience hands-on, participatory events that will create memorable and exciting ways for guests to truly *experience* these stories.
