BBDO India has been appointed as the integrated creative partner for LT Foods’ flagship rice brand DAAWAT, consolidating brand strategy, advertising, digital, social and integrated communications. The partnership aims to strengthen DAAWAT’s market presence in India through unified storytelling and consumer engagement.

BBDO India has been awarded the integrated creative mandate for LT Foods’ premium rice brand DAAWAT, a move that consolidates the brand’s entire communication strategy under one creative partner. The remit spans brand strategy, mainline advertising, digital, social and integrated communications, ensuring a unified voice across consumer touchpoints. For LT Foods, this marks a significant step in sharpening DAAWAT’s positioning in India’s competitive packaged food sector.

DAAWAT has long been recognised as a household name synonymous with premium basmati rice.

By consolidating creative, digital and social responsibilities under one agency, LT Foods can ensure streamlined execution and a cohesive brand narrative. For BBDO India, the win strengthens its portfolio in the food and FMCG sector, adding a marquee brand to its roster.

The collaboration is expected to deliver campaigns that elevate DAAWAT’s visibility and drive consumer engagement through innovative digital experiences and culturally attuned storytelling. As LT Foods continues to expand its footprint in India and globally, the partnership with BBDO India is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the next chapter of DAAWAT’s brand journey.
