publive-imageClose on the heels of winning the Pantaloons account last week, Everest has announced another significant win this week. DS Group has appointed Everest as the creative agency for the group's dairy business. Everest has been chosen as the agency on board following a multi-agency pitch.

Everest is already handling the creative assignments for the Catch Salt and Spices business of DS Group.

The business will be handled by the Delhi office of Everest. The agency has already started working on a 360 degree campaign for the brands and products under the dairy business. The estimated size of the account is put at Rs 10 crore by industry sources.

DS Group has recently ventured into the dairy business by acquiring a dairy plant with a processing capacity of 4 lakh litres of milk per day at Reengus, near Jaipur, in Rajasthan. The modernisation and capacity expansion of the plant is underway for the launch of new products.

DSMPL (DS Milk Product Ltd) has been manufacturing ghee and skimmed milk powder under the brand name 'Dairymax'.  The company further expanded its dairy portfolio with the launch of 'Ksheer,' the premium dairy brand. The products currently available under the Ksheer brand are UHT milk, cow ghee and fresh milk. These will be followed by other specialised products like dairy whitener, flavoured milk, fortified milk, curd, lassi, chaach, paneer and khoya.
