Petzzco appoints Ravi Shastri as Brand Ambassador and Advisor
India's leading pet care service provider, Petzzco, has named former cricketer and commentator Ravi Shastri as their principal advisor and brand ambassador. Shastri, a well-known animal lover, is expected to boost Petzzco's brand awareness and connect with pet owners on an emotional level.
Raj Kantak, Founder of Petzzco, expressed his excitement about the partnership, stating, "Pet lovers often have a strong bond with their pets and look for guidance and recommendations from people they admire. Since Ravi Shastri is an avid pet lover himself, he can connect with Petzzco's target audience on an emotional level. Having Ravi Shastri as a brand ambassador can significantly increase Petzzco's brand awareness. His association with the company will generate positive media attention and public interest."
Growing Pet Care Market in India
The Indian pet care industry is booming, projected to reach $10 billion by FY 2024. This surge is driven by rising pet ownership, with nearly 60% of households having pets. Pet adoption is also witnessing a significant increase, growing at an annual rate of 6%.
