Shanghai - Saatchi & Saatchi China client,
Safeguard, has been named Best Personal Care Brand in China at the inaugural
"best brands – the China brand rankings" conducted by global market
research company, GfK. The "best brands" awards are judged on
consumer perceptions and the emotional attachment that people feel to brands,
and the winning 'Personal Care' category covers Body Care, Hair Care and Skin

“Safeguard is a true Lovemark in China,”
said Neel Chaurasia, Saatchi & Saatchi’s Regional Director - Asia. “We have
a great track record of producing effective and innovative campaigns for Safeguard
in China, and recent awards add to the accolades.”

Best-in-Class example of how agencies and brands can respond to public
emergencies with agility,” said Antoni D’Esterre, Managing Partner at Saatchi
& Saatchi China. “The creative team at Saatchi & Saatchi China
delivered the campaign in record time, enabling Safeguard to launch timely
communication that resonated with consumers during an influenza outbreak.”
