G Shankar Ram, Joint Managing Director, Peps Industries said, “The heights that any company can grow till is purely dependant on the help it gets from its partners. With Phantom, we are rest assured that we are in bed with the best possible partner to help take Peps to new heights. Their professionalism and quality fits perfectly with what we as a brand look to personify.”
According to Phantom’s Founder and Chief Creative Officer Robbie Anthoney, the mandate was too good to resist, since it mirrors Phantom’s own perspective on purpose-driven branding. “Peps has already chomped up half the spring mattress pie by offering a product that’s far superior to anything else in the market. Nobody makes spring mattresses the way Peps does. Our task will now be to take this essential product truth and examine its relevance from a cultural perspective. Indians are in a perennial hurry these days, with most of us compromising on the quality of our sleep. How will Peps fit into people’s lives, as a brand? What will it help make possible? What problems will it solve? This is something we’re eager to explore. Through our engagements with clients across industries, we have found huge merit in creating work that connects culturally.”
Since its establishment, Peps has seen tremendous growth and now sells over two lakh (200,000) mattresses annually. Currently, Peps boasts of 133 exclusive Great Sleep Stores around the country. Peps aims to become a complete bedroom solution for all, by penetrating the different segments of bedroom accessories, and intends to expand its geographic footprint in the South East Asian market as well.
Peps Industries was established in 2006 by K. Madhavan, MD, and his two partners, G Shankar Ram, Joint MD, and P Manjunath, Director. The company controls a majority of India’s spring mattress market and has played a crucial role in bringing world-class affordable spring mattresses to Indian consumers.
