Vinod Nair, Managing Director, Network Advertising, said, "Essilor India is a strategic addition to our growing clientele and this is a responsibility we feel proud to own. It was on the basis of our ability to understand their business challenges and our sound strategic thinking that has helped us won this mandate. The win is sweeter because a global organisation, with global alignments has chosen us, a 100% Indian agency, for their India business."

Shayondeep Pal, Chief Creative Officer, Network Advertising, said, "From an advertising standpoint, Essilor is unlike many other categories. Because you are communicating with the end consumer indirectly through her optician, knowing very well that the buyer is more interested in the frame, than in the lens. Having said that, both strategically and creatively, we are working on new-world insights as Indians embrace a new work culture where our exposure to screens is maximum. We hope to create excitement in a category which for some reason has believed in functional advertising."

Neha Sharma, Head, Marketing, Essilor South Asia, said, “We have decided to associate with Network’s seasoned team due to their long-standing exposure to the changing advertising landscape, their creative consumer mindset, and a good strategic approach. This will help Essilor strengthen its brand presence further. We are delighted to have Network on board with us and look forward to an enriching association.”
