KFC India has signed an interesting partnership deal with famous Indian esports organization Orange Rock and has become their official “Winner Winner Chicken Dinner(WWCD)” sponsor for 2022. This collaboration brings the American fast food restaurant chain at the forefront of Indian esports in terms of exposure.
This alliance will provide OR Esports with multiple benefits. Some of them include gaming event support in terms of streaming, unique jersey designs for players and also a possibility of getting a digital avatar of iconic Colonel Sanders.
The name of this partnership is very intriguing as it is directly connected to the popular catchphrase of PUBG Mobile and BGMI. Whenever a team wins a match in PUBG or BGMI, they are awarded with a “Winner Winner Chicken Dinner’. This collaboration enables the brand to engage with the fast-growing gaming audience via direct connection with their favourite game and convert them into loyal customers in the longer run.
