Mumbai, October 15, 2024 – Experience Commerce (EC), an integrated digital agency within the Cheil Network, proudly announces the renewal of its annual digital, technology, and media mandate for MRF Tyres for the 12th consecutive year. Headquartered in Chennai, MRF Tyres is India’s largest tyre manufacturer and a prominent player in the global tyre industry. EC’s Mumbai team will continue to manage the account, providing a comprehensive suite of services, including social media management, website maintenance, and extensive media planning and buying.
Over the past 11 years, Experience Commerce has successfully executed some of the most impactful and innovative digital campaigns for MRF Tyres. This includes managing the iconic ‘Ride The Thrill’ campaign and launching the ‘Ride Along with MRF’ community, where we engaged biking enthusiasts across India and supported the creation of a dedicated platform for bikers. We also amplified the ‘MRF Rain Day’ campaign across digital and social media, combining safety awareness with engaging content by encouraging vehicle owners to check their tyres before the monsoon season. The ‘MRF Super Fan’ campaign, launched during the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, invited fans to share their personal stories with MRF and compete for the title of #MRFSuperFan, further enhancing brand engagement. Additionally, the ‘ACE of PACE’ campaign was strategically highlighted through digital channels, helping to identify India’s fastest bowlers for the MRF Pace Foundation and reinforcing MRF’s commitment to cricket. Experience Commerce also managed MRF Tyres’ media planning and buying for the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 on Hotstar, demonstrating the agency’s expertise in overseeing high-profile digital and media campaigns.
This enduring partnership is a testament to Experience Commerce’s exceptional work and the trust MRF Tyres has placed in the agency and its team. The agency remains committed to elevating MRF’s digital presence by harnessing its expertise to boost brand awareness and engagement. This includes creating interactive content tailored to MRF’s target audience across various social media platforms and amplifying media outreach through both organic and paid campaigns. Additionally, Experience Commerce will continue to manage MRF’s website, ensuring regular updates, maintenance, and defect fixes, along with overseeing hosting and domain management. Experience Commerce will also manage the comprehensive Media Planning & Buying for the brand across digital media channels including OTT.
MRF Tyres has a storied history, evolving from a small rubber balloon unit in 1946 into a global leader with an approximate USD 2.5 billion valuation. Today, MRF is among the top 20 tyre manufacturers worldwide, with a diversified product range including tyres for passenger cars, commercial vehicles, tractors, earthmovers, 2-wheelers, and even fighter aircraft. MRF’s longstanding association with cricket through the MRF Pace Foundation highlights its commitment to sports and innovation.
