  • Rebel Foods unveils campaign for flagship brand Oven Story Pizza

    By Our Staff

     

    Rebel Foods, the online restaurant company, has unveiled a new campaign for its half-n-half pizza offering by its flagship brand Oven Story Pizza. Conceptualised by Amit Akali’s What’s Your Problem, now a Wondrlab company, the new campaign addresses “common pizza problems”.

     

    Said Akali, Co-founder and Chief Creative Officer, Wondrlab: “There is a dictatorship in the pizza category with every big player giving out the same offerings. For an ardent foodie like myself, it was high time that someone came along and put an end to this dictatorship. Oven Story does just that with its unique half and half pizzas. The film is fun, quirky and drives home the message well. More importantly, they are unexpected. And today, if you catch attention, that’s half the battle won for a brand. You can look forward to a few more episodes with our dictator.”

     

    Added Pragati Dalal, VP, Brands at Rebel Foods: “Oven Story truly believes in exciting innovations with stand out offerings while making every pizza different. This unique identity goes beyond the product and also gets captured in the way we market the brand. Customers usually end up compromising while ordering their pizza when ordering in a group. Through this new campaign, we have addressed these customer problems with Oven Story’s half-n-half pizza where customers can order their choice of pizza/toppings individually. Being a disruptor in the pizza category, we don’t want our customers to compromise which makes us stand out against our competition.”

    By Our Staff

    Ovenstory Pizza has awarded its creative mandate across television and digital platforms to Wondrlab.

     

    Said Indrajit Ghosh, Global Head, Marketing Communication and Design, Rebel Foods: “Pizza is the ultimate comfort food for so many of us. What is necessary, however, is to understand what the customer wants, rather than ‘what works’. There is a reason customer love is at the forefront of all of Rebel Foods’ decisions. Wondrlab understood our vision, and our incessant desire to keep the customer at the heart of all conversations, while constantly innovating. Their thought process on our brand journey resonated with us, and we are confident that the partnership with Wondrlab will yield nothing but amazing results!”

     

    Added Rakesh Hinduja, Co-Founder & Managing Partner – Content Platform, Wondrlab: “Fast food is always an exciting, dynamic category. And it’s even more fun when it’s everyone’s favourite food – pizza. Ovenstory Pizza is fabulous when it comes to the quality and range of pizzas. Wondrlab is excited to take the brand’s story forward to consumers. We look forward to creating some fantastic work with Ovenstory Pizza.”

    By Our Staff

     

    Sequoia and India Quotient-backed staff attendance & payroll management start-up, PagarBook, have announced their partnership with integrated marketing business impact consultancy, One Source. The mandate involves reputation management across corporate and consumer stakeholders, corporate communications, investor relations, consumer outreach and content marketing for Rebel Foods.

     

    For One Source, the mandate will be spearheaded by lead counsel on the account, Sri Kalyani Nippani, supported by the national team.

     

    Said Siva Prasad, Senior Vice President – Marketing & Sales, PagarBook: “At PagarBook, we wanted a partner who understood that marketing in the new normal needs to be a revenue centre, not a by-the-book cost centre. We found in One Source someone who understands the marketing space, as well as we do the SME space. I still remember their lead asking me during the first call – if we don’t drive up PagarBook’s revenues, how do we come back asking for YoY retainer hikes?”

     

    Added Kishor Barua, Principal Consultant & Country Lead – Corporate Communication, One Source: “We’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again. Our business growth depends on growing our clients’ business. The time of tweeting out earned stories and calling it digital is past. Integrated marketing is a sunrise sector in India, and we are honoured by the fact that PagarBook has seen value in a consulting approach, rather than an agency approach. We intend to honour that faith”.
