Bus Branding in Whitefield
Whitefield is East Bengaluru's IT and business corridor, anchored by International Tech Park Bangalore (ITPB) and a dense belt of tech parks, malls, hospitals, and apartment communities. Branded BMTC buses run through this corridor all day on the routes that carry its workforce, so this page sets out exactly what is in Whitefield, which bus routes pass through it, where the major stops are, and how large the commuting base is.
We hold exclusive partnership rights for bus branding across Bengaluru and the whole of Karnataka, so your Whitefield campaign runs through one accountable partner from planning to proof of display.
Whitefield at a Glance
- Whitefield is one of Bengaluru's largest IT corridors, with International Tech Park Bangalore, the EPIP Zone, and parks such as GR Tech Park, Brigade Tech Park, and KTPO concentrated in a compact area.
- An estimate cited by the Personal2Public public transport campaign puts around six lakh people working in the IT companies in and around Whitefield, with more along the adjoining Outer Ring Road sections.
- The corridor mixes offices, malls, hospitals, schools, and large apartment communities, so the same audience lives, works, shops, and commutes inside Whitefield itself, giving repeated exposure to buses on these routes.
A branded BMTC bus works Whitefield all day, seen by the riders on board and by every commuter, motorist and pedestrian around it, at a fraction of the cost of static outdoor.
