Unilever has partnered with former Olympic sprinter Usain Bolt for its ‘Fast Just Got Better’ campaign in support of Persil Wonder Wash detergent.

The campaign is led by a TV advert where Bolt shares his ‘fast’ lifestyle, including using the eponymous detergent.

The supplier says it is breaking from convention by not focusing on dirty clothes, instead adopting a lifestyle-led approach which it claims will connect with a wider customer demographic.
