The size of the business is around Rs 5 crore
Panasonic has awarded the media duties for its Office Automation Systems range to OMS, Ahmedabad, following a multi-agency pitch. OMS will be in charge of the entire media planning, buying and implementation operations for this range in India. The size of the business is around Rs 5 crore. Incidentally, OMS won the Panasonic Toughbook laptop business a few months ago. OMS’ total billings on Panasonic now amount to Rs 8-10 crore.
In India, Panasonic’s creatives are done jointly by its international and local agencies. While the media departments of its local agencies were handling the media duties earlier, OMS’ gain is almost like the first ever consolidation of Panasonic’s media duties in India.
