Following the 92nd Academy Awards (Oscars), Spanish crisp and churros producer Bonilla a la vista has seen a 150 percent sales surge, as it turns out that the company’s distinctive tins appeared in the Oscar-winning film Parasite, The Guardian reported.
The crisps, which were quite popular in South Korea even before the film came out, began to trend due to social media influencers – leading to a 150 percent surge in online sales.
At the same time, the firm’s head Cesar, the son of Salvador Bonilla – who started the business back in 1932, said that the company’s product has always spoken for itself.
