Dairy, especially milk, is not just a food group in India. In most cultures of the country, it is believed to be a sign of prosperity, nutrition and health. Consumed on almost a daily basis in various concoctions or just plain, milk like potatoes is a must-have for most Indian households. Generally, a family has a milk supplier or a designated shop, where the day’s needs are brought from. However, there is one manufacturer who dominates the dairy industry, almost across the country. It is no different in the North East.
Keventer Agro – the fastest growing food company in Eastern India - was looking to gain a foothold in the dairy sector of the North Eastern states of the country. They needed a plan that would help them create awareness about their milk products and grow an affinity toward them. Instead of using conventional marketing channels such as television, which is one-sided and leaves little scope for audience interaction, Keventer wanted something more worthwhile.
