Doritos and Snapchat partners to roll out snack-based face lens

Doritos, one of the world’s top nacho chip brand has collaborated with Snapchat to bring India’s first snack-based face Lens to the consumers across the country. Capturing the spontaneity of millennial users, Doritos will engage with their audience through this custom Snapchat Lens. This augmented reality experience will communicate the brand’s philosophy of “For The Bold.” The Doritos Snapchat Lens will go live on November 4, 2017, and be available for twenty-four hours.

With this collaboration, Doritos aims to bring the entire fan experience and famous “first bite and then bold” narrative to Snapchat users in India. This exciting new face Lens changes the Snapchat user from a kitten to a tiger when the user opens his or her mouth to bite into a Doritos chip. Users can then share their fun adventures with the Doritos Snapchat experience across various social platforms in their own exciting way.DORITOS AND SNAPCHATOver 170 million people use Snapchat globally every day to Snap with family and friends, watch Stories, and explore content from top publishers and around the world. The average Snapchat daily user visits the app twenty times a day, and daily users spend an average of over 30 minutes on Snapchat every day. Lenses allow Snapchat users to apply real-time augmented reality effects and sound to their selfies — so brands can take part in the communication on Snapchat in the most fun, personal way. Doritos is present in over 55 countries globally and began its Indian manufacturing this year. Doritos is targeted at Indian consumers in the 16 to 24 year age bracket, residing in the urban and semi-urban centers.
