What @the_edras achieved through authentic creator partnerships
Between February and April 2026, Zillim AIO Systems planned, shot, and managed a 16-piece content campaign pairing @the_edras and @edras_kids with Tanzania's leading maternal nutrition creator Caren Shuubi Victor (@pregnancy_nutritiontz). Every post and reel was tagged as an official Instagram collaboration — building trust, reach, and purchase intent among new and expectant mothers across Tanzania.
Every piece featured Edras products inside Caren's real daily life — travelling with Baby C by flight, pushing a stroller on rural roads, visiting the new Mawasiliano store, bathing and bedtime routines at home. Mothers saw the products in context, not in a catalogue.
Content led with maternal education (co-sleeping safety, bathing technique, travel comfort) and naturally introduced the Edras product as the solution. This format consistently outperformed pure product showcases.
Instagram collaboration labels linked @the_edras directly on every post and reel. Cross-posting to Facebook extended reach further at no extra production cost.

Across collaboration reels and posts, the audience was overwhelmingly female — mothers and women in childbearing age making household purchase decisions.
The 25–34 bracket dominated — women actively having children, setting up nurseries, and buying baby gear for the first time.
Roughly half of viewers were new to @pregnancy_nutritiontz — meaning Edras was introduced to cold audiences, not just existing followers. Top posts pulled 37–59% non-follower reach.
Best-performing reels held attention: 21s average on the cot safety reel (100K views), 19s on the travel cot reel, 16s on the stroller store reel. Educational storytelling kept mothers watching long enough to see the product.
323,721 mothers and parents saw Edras products through a trusted voice they already follow for pregnancy and child nutrition advice. That is the equivalent of reaching every person in Dar es Salaam's maternal buyer market multiple times over — without a single shilling in paid media.
911 saves, 85 new follows, and hundreds of profile visits mean mothers didn't just scroll past — they bookmarked products, visited the creator's profile, and moved closer to a WhatsApp order. Every collaboration post linked directly to @the_edras.
