    LT Foods launches new campaign for Daawat

    Mumbai: Daawat, the flagship brand of 70-year-old consumer food company LT Foods has launched a new campaign to extend its ‘Banega Toh Farq Dikhega’ proposition. The campaign will be launched pan India across major TV channels, digital, social media, and OTT platforms.

    Speaking on the launch of the new campaign, LT Foods Ltd, managing director and CEO, Ashwani Kumar Arora said, “Consumers today exhibit a high degree of discernibility and consciousness in their consumption choices. The new Daawat campaign by LT Foods not only furthers the proposition of ‘Banega Toh Farq Dikhega’ but also showcases the special care and effort the company takes through a four-stage curation process.”

The extension of ‘Banega Toh Farq Dikhega’ campaign demonstrates the consistent effort taken by the Company to curate the best in category product,” added LT Foods Ltd, CEO India and Far East business, Ritesh Arora.
