Danone Narang Beverages has appointed Scarecrow Communications as its creative agency for its beverage brand, B’lue. The agency was selected after a comprehensive selection process. The business will be approximately in the range of Rs15-20 crore once the product gets launched countrywide. The incumbent on the business is Everest Brand Solutions. The win is significant to Scarecrow as Danone, as a brand internationally, is aligned to the Y&R group and has strayed from this in just few markets, and India is one among them.
An official from Danone Narang has confirmed this development.
The brand B’lue is a new concept in ready-to-drink beverages. It is a restorative drink that leaves you feeling refreshed and uplifted, thanks to it’s unique formulation. B’lue is currently being test marketed in Pune. In 2010, Danone (the world’s second largest bottled water company) partnered Narang Beverages through a joint venture.
Raghu Bhat, Founder Director, Scarecrow Communications said: “It’s a source of personal and professional pride to be associated with a brand like B’lue from Danone Narang Group. And there is a genuine opportunity to create interventions at multiple levels through the power of creativity.”
Manish Bhatt, Founder Director, Scarecrow Communications added: “Danone has given the world iconic brands like Evian. Working on this new innovative FMCG brand conceived by Danone Narang – B’lue – is one of the most exciting opportunities for Scarecrow. ”
