A scalable national quiz program reinforcing milo’s ‘Grow with Sports’ positioning

How we engaged 4 Lakh+ kids from 500+ schools in two years, raised awareness on sports & nutrition and sampled new Milo drink

Solution

A scalable ‘grow with sports’ school program with sampling opportunities. Helping Milo underline its energy proposition for kids and strong sports equity, we conducted 'Milo - National Quiz' for classes III to X based on Sports and Nutrition. It served as an action for the brand's intent for creating awareness among students about the importance of sports and healthy nutrition; and a platform to introduce newly launched product. The components of the quiz were developed keeping in mind that they require low specialized skill and included in-school activities to encourage participation. Exclusive content was developed for different age groups keeping in mind the difficulty level and skill requirement.

  • Focus cities: Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata & Bengaluru
