Enhanced emphasis on hygiene, consumer engagement through campaigns & use of technology, and need for stronger insights form the crux of Burger King's Road to Recovery, highlights Adapa.

The lockdown being the hero (and villain) of the last 5 months, brought many takeaways in its wake. Adapa highlights that communicating with the consumers through these difficult times, has been one of the biggest learnings. The brand came out with two major campaigns during the phase - Bail Me Out Burger King & the Reassurance Whopper - both of which banked on two of the strongest consumer trends seen during the period.
