Pune-based Setu Advertising has bagged the communications mandate of Suhana, a brand under Pravin Masalewale, the largest procurer, processor and marketer of spices in Maharashtra. The account win comes on the back of a multi-agency pitch, in which Setu was invited to participate.
Suhana comprises a wide range of products in categories such as ready-to-cook, blended spices and pure spices.
On awarding the business to Setu, Sagar Pande, Manager – Marketing, Pravin Masalewale, said, “We were very impressed to see the extensive research Setu put into their pitch. Their approach, although very strategic in nature, is underlined by a strong emotional appeal. It's something new for us and we're excited to take this ahead and see how it takes shape.”
Rugwed Deshpande, Director, Setu Advertising, commented, “Having grown from a two-person home enterprise, Pravin now employs more than 1,000 people and reaches its consumers through a network of 463 distributors and 1 lakh retailers. That is a great story to be told, and we're excited to tell it.”
Nasir Shaikh, Creative Head, Setu, added here, “From the communication stand-point, we are likely to see the brand move from tactical, product-focused messaging to a more story-based, broad perspective.”
The agency has big plans for the brand. “Suhana has a strong presence all over India and in global markets as well. We are looking forward to creating dynamic brand activation and engagement, crafting it into a truly global brand,” said Abhijit Nikalje, Account Planner at Setu.
