The mascot, affectionately called ‘K’ internally, was recently unveiled on the brands social media channels and with community newspapers which kicked off an open call for kids of the Cape to help the radio station finalise his ID card for his first day of work at Kfm 94.5. Specifically targeted at primary school leaners, schools across the Cape are also encouraged to get involved in the competition to name the mascot and design his unique Kfm 94.5 t-shirt.
The mascot - an African penguin with a funky style, a serious dancer and a cheerful personality is the personification of the stations brand values and will make the brand’s personality more explicit through his traits and mannerisms.

“Kfm 94.5 has always been highly visible in the Western Cape with our world class activations and immersive station events carefully curated with our audience in mind. The Kfm 94.5 activations arm includes the internal events team, the Kfm 94.5 Crew powered by Toyota and now the Kfm mascot. We strategically selected the African penguin, which has been synonymous with Cape Town since the first colony settled in Boulders Beach in 1982. The aquatic birds are known for their charisma and The Kfm mascot will have just that plus boundless energy and of course happy feet,” said Saskia Hickey, Kfm 94.5 Marketing Manager.
Hickey added: “We are asking Primary school leaners and by extension their schools and families to get involved by helping us to give “K” a proper name and identity.
