The document discusses Cadbury's "Kuch Meetha Ho Jaye" integrated marketing campaign in India. The campaign aimed to change Cadbury's image from a kids' brand to one for everyone by positioning Dairy Milk chocolate as an alternative to traditional Indian sweets. Through localization and emotional messaging, the campaign's strategy was to increase occasions when people eat Dairy Milk and replace sweets. As a result, Cadbury saw significant growth in India from 2005-2009, doubling its business and turnover. Chocolate sales volumes grew from 2% to 21.8% during this period due to the successful campaign.
