Amul is a dairy cooperative in India, based in Anand, Gujarat. It is the largest dairy cooperative in the world, and the largest producer of milk and milk products in India. Amul was founded in 1946 by Tribhuvandas Patel and Verghese Kurien. The name “Amul” is derived from the Sanskrit word “Amulya”, which means “priceless” or “precious”.
One of the most famous Amul ads is the “Utterly Butterly Delicious” campaign, which features a picture of a cow with the tagline “Utterly Butterly Delicious”. This campaign was launched in 1966 and has been running ever since. It has helped to make Amul butter one of the most popular brands in India.
Amul has also used its advertising campaigns to address social and political issues. For example, in the 1970s, Amul ran a campaign against the dowry system. This campaign helped to raise awareness of the issue and contributed to its decline.
Amul is a pioneer in the dairy industry and has played a major role in the development of the Indian economy. It is a symbol of self-reliance and cooperative empowerment, and its advertising campaigns are some of the most popular in India.
