marico-logoMarico and BBH India have created history yet again at the recently concluded Asia Pacific Marketing Congress (APPIES) 2014 in Singapore by winning for the third year in a row on Parachute Advansed Ayurvedic Hair Oil.

With a Silver in 2012, Gold in 2013 and Gold yet again this year, it is a hat-trick, a first-ever for any brand in the history of the APPIES, for Parachute Advansed Ayurvedic Hair Oil. This historic high for the brand follows another record: being the only Indian entry to win a Gold at the APPIES in 2013.

Marico and BBH India have now together won four medals at the APPIES in the last three years.

The other Gold for BBH India and Marico this year came for their work on Nihar Shanti Amla. The winning entries were 'Change with Pride' for Nihar Shanti Amla and 'Sharing Success' for Parachute Advansed Ayurvedic.
