The challenge

Grofers is a consumer goods hyper-local delivery service available in 17 cities across India. Users can simply order through the app to receive everything from groceries and hand picked fruit and vegetables, to cosmetics, electronics and bakery items from their neighborhood stores.


The solution

Over six weeks, Grofers shared Instagram photo and carousel ads with its target audience. Simple yet effective, the imagery profiled its fresh fruit and vegetable offering and highlighted its commitment to food quality and safety. The thumb stopping imagery and narrative invited users to flick through the selection of photos to learn more about the Grofers offering.
