Campaigns we have run for brands like Karnataka Milk Federation
A campaign we planned, booked and photographed for another advertiser in Food & Beverages, run by the same team and the same process you would work with.
Outdoor built around a menu line and four outlet addresses
A multi-city restaurant chain has to sell the food and the location in the same three seconds. The hoardings led with the appetite line, that ghee makes the taste, on a single dominating dish image, then closed with the four outlets by name: Club Road and Lalpur in Ranchi, Golmuri Chowk in Jamshedpur and Salt Lake in Kolkata. Sites were taken near the outlets themselves so the address list read as directions rather than as a corporate footer.
Listing every outlet on every site means one creative works across three cities without a separate version for each, and a diner in any of them finds the nearest branch on the board. Leading with the dish rather than the logo is what makes a restaurant hoarding stop traffic.
Every placement shown was booked directly with the media owner and photographed on the ground by our team.

Food and beverages advertising in India
Television is the sector’s leading medium, taking 72.7% of ad spend over the 12 months to September 2025. Vishnu Packaging leads on 10.1% of that spend, 3.6% of the sector’s ads run on digital, and 1,814 advertisers were still active in January 2026.
Where the volume moved, quarter by quarter
Ad volume indexed against the opening quarter = 100, inside one collection batch. The 2026 exports are not on the same footing, so the trend stays within the 12 months to September 2025 rather than crossing that boundary.
Up 33% on the opening quarter.
Up 52% on the opening quarter.
Down 19% on the opening quarter.
Ads recorded per quarter across the 12 months to September 2025, indexed to Oct-Dec 24. Media with too few ads to compare are left out.
The preferred medium
Television captured the highest share of the sector’s ad spend over the 12 months to September 2025, at 72.7% of estimated television, print and radio spend. Digital sits outside this split because TAM prices it on a different scale; it is reported by ad count instead.
A plan that skips television buys a smaller share of this category’s voice than the headline spend suggests.
