K G Satheesh, senior manager, marketing and HR, MILMA, says, "The task that we set for the agencies was of reimagining brand MILMA. The strong strategic rigor Lowe demonstrated in its vision for Milma was impressive. Its creative package was endearing and striking. These reasons, along with its track record of doing great communication consistently for other leading brands in the country gave us the confidence to go with Lowe Lintas."

Integral to Kerala, it touches the lives of probably every Malayali, almost every other day, contributing to their growth and well-being.

It gives Lowe Lintas great pride to be entrusted with this responsibility."
