Himalaya Men, from the house of The Himalaya Drug Company, has awarded its digital creative mandate to Kinnect. The account will be handled by the agency’s Mumbai office and was won following a multi-agency pitch.

Said Ashwani Gandhi, Head of Men’s Grooming and E-commerce verticals for Himalaya: “Successfully influencing the male consumer, especially with regards to personal care, is both challenging as well as rewarding. With the number of users and the time spent on digital mediums showing an increase day-by-day, digital becomes an imperative medium for brands, and more so for brands that cater to men. Kinnect comes with strong credentials and has a team of highly motivated and passionate individuals. We’re confident that together we will be able to efficiently build digital as a vital growth driver for Himalaya Men.”
