Wieden+Kennedy bags Hero Cycles

Hero Cycles has announced the appointment of Wieden+Kennedy to handle its brand mandate.

 

The account was won without a multi-agency pitch. 

 

The agency's mandate is to steer the brand into a new era, bringing a fresh, contemporary perspective to the entire brand portfolio of the company.

 

Aditya Munjal, CEO, Hero Cycles, said, “As we embark on a journey to transform not just ourselves but also how consumers see cycling in India, it is imperative to have an equally committed partner onboard. With Wieden+Kennedy’s unique approach and experience, I believe Hero Cycles will bring about an impactful change in its interactions with consumers, and we are very excited to start this ride with them.”

 

Ayesha Ghosh, president, Wieden+Kennedy India, said, “When a storied brand like Hero Cycles is revitalised with the energy that Aditya Munjal and his team have brought in with their ambitious plans, it can only mean that the future looks rosy for the brand. Wieden+Kennedy has been known to infuse the spirit of the times into legacy brands. That's our single point agenda on this one.”
