Mumbai: Reliance Retail’s JioMart, an e-marketplace, has roped in Indian cricket icon, Mahendra Singh Dhoni as brand ambassador, the company announced in a press release on Friday. In addition, JioMart has re-branded its festive campaign to JioUtsav, Celebrations Of India, which will go live on October 8, 2023.

Sandeep Varaganti, chief executive officer, JioMart, said, “We found a perfect fit in MS Dhoni as our brand ambassador with his personality representing trust, reliability and assurance, just like JioMart. Our new campaign lends itself to celebrating life and all its special moments with our loved ones, ‘shopping’ being an integral part of this revelry. Non-metro regions currently account for around 60% of our overall sales, a sign of gradual growth and a true testament to the fruition of our efforts to democratize digital retail.”

The JioUtsav campaign video will feature Dhoni in a 45-second film. It is conceptualised to highlight the cross-category expertise of JioMart, the celebration of the festive spirit and the great shopping deals and discounts available on the platform.

The JioMart platform currently works with over 1000 artisans, selling 1.5 lakh products. In fact, as part of the campaign shoot, Varaganti presented a Madhubani painting made by Ambika Devi, an award-winning artisan from Bihar to Dhoni.

Speaking on the occasion, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, said, “India is known for its vibrant culture, people and festivals, JioMart’s JioUtsav campaign is an ode to the celebration of India and its people.  I am very excited to come on board with JioMart and be a part of the shopping journey of millions of Indians.”
