On choosing Rediffusion Y&R, Mansoor Ali, Chief Marketing Officer, Hamdard, said, “We've been through an intense evaluation process and have decided to award a significant part of the business to Rediffusion Y&R on the strength of understanding our business and having the right direction on concepts and strategy. Our criterion for shortlisting our agencies have been purely on the compelling passion and love displayed by the agencies for our brands. We at Hamdard have built the brand with a lot of love and were keen to have partners on board who felt equally strongly about our products. We have decided to partner with Rediffusion Y&R on Rooh Afza and its extensions, Safi, Sualin and Joshina.”
