Britannia 50-50 is inviting snack lovers across the country to participate in its latest initiative, the 'Britannia 50-50 Chief Selector' campaign. This fun and interactive contest lets one step into the shoes of a designer, giving you the unique opportunity to create the next iconic biscuit shape. Whether one is dreaming up zigzags, spirals, or something completely out-of-the-box, this is their moment to shine.
Conceptualised by Schbang, this campaign is a natural extension of Britannia’s long-standing tradition of putting consumers at the heart of its innovation. The film features Ravi Shastri in a digital avatar where he is in a high-tech lab, conversing with scientists and brainstorming the next big biscuit shape—but he’s counting on the consumers, to come up with the most creative ideas. By inviting consumers to become part of the product development process, Britannia continues to push the boundaries of consumer engagement in a unique way.
Shastri perfectly embodies the dynamic and flavourful dual persona of Britannia 50-50. Much like a Chief Selector’s role in identifying top talent and making strategic decisions, Shastri, in his role as Chief Selector for Britannia 50-50, brings his expertise and sharp eye to the task of identifying the new biscuit shape.
Amit Doshi, Chief Marketing Officer, Britannia said, "At Britannia, we believe in the power of consumer collaboration. The 'Britannia 50-50 Chief Selector Campaign' reflects our commitment to innovation by involving consumers in designing the next biscuit shape, deepening our connection with them. Ravi Shastri’s role as Chief Selector brings a unique blend of insight and charisma, aligning perfectly with the energy of Britannia 50-50. The creative team at Schbang has brilliantly captured this dynamic, ensuring the campaign sets a new benchmark in interactive product development. We are eager to see the incredible designs our consumers will bring to life."
Shastri said, "Partnering with Britannia 50-50 has been an absolute delight. The 'Britannia 50-50 Chief Selector Campaign' is a brilliant example of how the brand engages its audience by involving them in the creative process. Britannia is doing fantastic work in connecting with snack lovers across the country, and I am thrilled to be a part of this journey, helping in selecting the next biscuit shape."
Harshil Karia, Founder and MD, Schbang said, “The biscuit world has been confined to a limited selection of shapes for far too long and it was time to break free from the ordinary.
