Rediffusion bags creative mandate for Shyam Steel

Rediffusion has won the creative mandate for Shyam Steel. The account was won after a multi-agency pitch and will be handled from the agency’s Kolkata office.

Established in 1953, Shyam Steel Industries Ltd., a Rs15-billion company, is one of the leading primary steel producers in India, manufacturing TMT Rebar and Structural steel.

The company’s recent advertising campaigns features its brand Ambassador Virat Kohli and focuses on its core property, ‘strength and flexibility’. The company’s tie-up with Rediffusion as creative partners comes with an elaborate plan to spread the brand message to a larger global audience.

Govind Beriwal, Director, Shyam Steel, said, “When we started looking for a creative agency, we were looking for two things: a strong creative potential and sound strategic council. Reason for choosing Rediffusion as Shyam Steel’s creative agency is that they are not only skilled and passionate in helping create great campaigns and build strong brands, but importantly, are also proficient at helping businesses grow. Innovative thinking across the marketing spectrum was our prime requirement and we found Rediffusion match our brief very well.”
