“Creativity has only one purpose in advertising and that is effectiveness. And no agency network believes in that more than Lowe. Proof of that is the fact that we have been the highest ranked in the Global Effie Index consistently for the last few years. So it is a matter of great pride and honour that we have been recognised for effectiveness in Sri Lanka as well. We would like to thank all our client partners who have supported and encouraged us on this journey,” said Lowe Sri Lanka Chief Executive Officer Hari Krishnan.
Lowe won a Gold Effie in the ‘Packaged Food’ category for Marmite, a Silver Effie in the same category for Knorr, a Bronze Effie in 
the ‘Finance’ category for LOLC and three Black Effies for Fair and Lovely Max Fairness and Vaseline Healthy in the ‘Beauty’ category and Vim in the ‘Detergent’ category. Lowe was also the secondary agency in the ‘Media’ category for Sunlight which won a Gold Effie.

Therefore, these awards are recognition of the tireless efforts we put into each campaign and a validation of our creativity and effectiveness,” said Lowe Sri Lanka Senior Vice President/Executive Creative Director Dilshara Jayamanna.
