10X Order Growth for a Restaurant in Manchester USA

A Manchester-based restaurant partnered with Varun Digital Media to scale their daily orders
from 5-9 to 50-60 using cultural storytelling, geo-targeted social ads, meme marketing, and
seasonal offers. This high-impact campaign connected directly with the South Asian diaspora
through humor, nostalgia, and occasion-based promotions.

Client Overview

Despite serving authentic and high-quality Indian food, the client struggled to generate consistent order volume. They lacked brand
visibility and emotional connection with the South Asian diaspora. Our culturally-aligned digital strategy helped them
break through the noise and achieve over 1,000% growth in just six weeks.
