Speaking at the internal gathering, Mr. Wulff-Caesar emphasised the impact of a smile: “‘Crafting Smiles’ is not just some catchy phrase that our clever marketing people dreamt up. It is a promise that we’re making to Ghanaians. What makes Pepsodent Charcoal stand tall is this promise that we will continue to help them light up that natural, radiant smile they desire, and that so many of us have invested time and brainpower into helping them achieve. It’s also a promise to ourselves, as a team, that we will continue to put our heart and soul into delivering products that genuinely make a difference.” Pepsodent Charcoal is renowned for its unique blend of activated charcoal and zesty lemon, continuing to deliver on its promise of crafting smiles by removing stains and whitening teeth. It has an enhanced focus on fostering the confidence that comes with a naturally bright and healthy smile. This relaunch signifies a deeper connection with consumers, inviting them to embrace their smiles as a reflection of their inner craft.
