An ode to the unseen heroes

A heartfelt campaign, aptly titled #HEARTWORK is an emotional ode to people who work behind the scenes.

One of India's favourite potato chip brand, Lay's launched the campaign to share gratitude towards it's unsung heroes' who have brought joy to millions. The campaign is an ode to each hero in the brand's supply chain who work relentlessly against all odds to ensure the brand brings joy to millions across the country.

The campaign film signifies that each pack of crisps is a celebration of the #HEARTWORK of unseen heroes; Farmers, Factory Workers, Truck Drivers, Distributors, Sales Force, Retailers, and Delivery Executives, whom we don't always get a chance to thank in person. Through this film the brand extends its sincere appreciation and gratitude to them on behalf of the company and every consumer who enjoys the product.

From applauding the Indian farmer who puts in utmost care and love in growing the best quality potatoes to the factory workers, who work day and night to ensure its production. It recognizes the efforts of the truck drivers who often drive long miles across the country, to deliver the shipments. And, last but not the least, the film expresses gratitude to the retailers and delivery executives who ensure that the snack reaches the consumer.

Explaining the idea behind the special ode, Dilen Gandhi, Senior Director and Category Head - Foods, PepsiCo India said, "Every step of the journey from farm to finger is filled with countless stories of people who face tough challenges but overcome them with dedicated efforts and with a smile on their face. They might be working behind the scenes, but they are the real heroes of the story. With the #HEARTWORK campaign, we want to extend our sincere gratitude & appreciation to each one of them. It is thanks to their efforts that LAY'S is able to bring joy to millions of consumers in India."
