    Parag Milk Foods’ Gowardhan Ghee partners with KBC 14

    Mumbai: Gowardhan Ghee from the house of Parag Milk Foods has collaborated with Sony Entertainment Television’s show Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 14 to launch its new communication initiative, #GARVSEGOWARDHAN.

    The campaign kicks off across multiple consumer touch-points, such as television, out-of-home, digital, and experiential activations. It is an attempt to convey the mutual feeling of pride felt by millions of customers, farmers, and the Parag Milk family.

    Following this partnership, whenever a contestant on the hot seat reaches the second “Padaav” of the game, i.e., wins a minimum of Rs 3.20 lakh, they will also attain the prize of yearly supplies of Gowardhan Ghee.

    Host Amitabh Bachchan will mention “Gauravshali Uphar,” which adds to the contestants’ achievements. This association is a step towards celebrating the brand’s purity while embracing its glorious years in the market.

    Commenting on the collaboration, Parag Milk Foods senior vice president strategy, sales, and marketing Akshali Shah said, “Associating with Kaun Banega Crorepati is a logical extension of our brand and product category Gowardhan ghee, as traditionally ghee has been considered a brain tonic for memory enhancement. It is said to promote all three aspects of mental functioning-learning, memory, and recall—which are essential to performing well on the hot seat. We are also very thrilled with this association as the legendary Amitabh Bachchanji serves as the host. His charming personality and humility bring an unwavering fanfare to this game show. It has a successful track record of reaching a captive audience, delivering stupendous results, and garnering favourable reviews across India. The mention of “aapko milta hai Gowardhan Ghee ki taraf se Gauravshali uphar” by Amitabh Bachchan ji has enormous appeal and would aid in extending our pride in #GARVSEGOWARDHAN to the next level.”

    Parag Milk to launch ‘Go cheese’ campaign by November-end

    BANGALORE: Dairy and milk food products manufacturer Parag Milk Foods (Gowardhan) plans to launch an aggressive campaign for promoting its main staple – cheese – by the end of this month, said company sources.

    The company’s ATL activities include television, radio in metro cities, print and outdoor. Its BTL initiatives include sampling at outlets, mainly modern retail.

    “This will be our second push this year across all media including national, kids and regional television mediums. It should commence by by the end of this November,” revealed Gowardhan’s vice-president of marketing Rahul Akkara. “Our annual ad budgets are around Rs.100 million, and a major chunk of this goes towards the pushes that we have on television.”

    The company also has a range of milk food products under the brand ‘Gowardhan’ manufactured out of its plant in Manchar in Maharashtra. It has a major presence in markets such as Mumbai and Pune.

    Gowardhan also announced the launch of six flavors of ‘Go fruit n dahi’ yoghurt in the Bangalore market today.

    “Our TG for the flavored yoghurts is the woman and the youth in the metos- it is a snack that one can have on the go,” said Akkara. “Since the ‘Fruit n Yoghurt’ is more of a metro centric prodcut, our mass media communications will be mainly on outdoor, local print and radio mediums in Bangalore. Once our new diary in Andhra Pradesh starts production, we will be targeting other cities such as Mysore, Chennai, Hyderabad, etc.,” he added.

    Initially Gowardhan’s flavored yoghurt offering will be available in modern retail outlets. Once its expansion plans are complete, it intends to be present on the local grocery shop shelves.

    Gowardhan pegs the current fruit and yoghurt market in India at 50 tons per month, with Mumbai accounting for 10 tons. The market is growing by around 30 per cent year on year.

    Bangalore based Scion handles the creative and brand promotion duties for Gowardhan, while Karat handles the media buying.
