The Market

VMLY&R COMMERCE Dubai/UAE

The Challenge

Dasani, a water brand owned by Coca-Cola, was looking to relaunch in Pakistan. The objective was to provide the brand with a real point of difference to help it stand out in the sea of sameness that is the water category.

The Idea

Dasani ceded their entire advertising space – packaging, promotional, digital presence and experiential environments – to put a spotlight on female heroes championing societal change in Pakistan.

Growth

Dasani overachieved their marketing goals and the brand's digital engagement reached an all-time high in Pakistan, while those heroes were given a loud voice to raise funds and support for their causes.
