We thank our earlier agencies Leo Burnett and FCB Ulka, who helped us to re-position & re-launch our brands. I really appreciate their efforts in helping us evolve our campaigns & make them noticeable. We are extremely choosy of our approach to businesses & marketing. While our products and brands are doing well in top league, we believe customized campaign approach is pivotal for success in Edible Oil Market.
