Background

NDL, producers of Seaman’s, came to us with a clear challenge. The market had been flooded with counterfeit Seaman’s products, and many consumers could not easily tell the fake from the original. The brand needed a strong way to protect trust and help people identify the genuine product.

The Insight

The Insight

The Insight

For Seaman’s users, authenticity matters. People rely on the product for its effectiveness, so buying a fake version does more than waste money. It breaks confidence. To solve this, Seaman’s refreshed its packaging and introduced a unique seal. Our task was to make sure consumers recognised the new seal and understood that it was the mark of the original.

The Idea

The Idea

The Idea

We built the campaign around one simple truth:
If it does not carry the True Seal, it is not the real Seaman’s.

This led to the True Seal campaign. A clear call for consumers to watch out for the seal as proof of authenticity.

To give the idea cultural strength, we introduced the theme Adura Agba. A powerful prayer needs the real thing. In the same way, effective results require the original Seaman’s. No dilution. No alteration. No compromise.

The Story Direction

The Story Direction

The communication focused on three clear messages:

  • Seaman’s remains strong and effective

  • Counterfeits weaken results

  • The True Seal is the proof of authenticity

We showed consumers exactly how to identify the seal and avoid fake products.

The campaign was delivered through:
