<![CDATA[This article discusses the social media marketing strategy implemented by Kopi Kamu on Instagram to build brand awareness through an inclusive employment identity involving baristas with Down syndrome. The study was developed from a qualitative case study that used interviews, observation, and documentation to examine planning, implementation, integrated communication, and social media integration in the organization. The findings show that Kopi Kamu utilizes Instagram feeds, reels, stories, highlights, consumer interactions, influencer collaboration, and paid boosting to introduce its products and social mission.

The implication is that food and beverage businesses can integrate commercial objectives and social values without reducing the dignity of workers with disabilities.]]>
