EMAMI is positioned as everyone’s brand, fulfilling consumer needs through a combination of consumer research and transparent communication. Emami understands latent consumer needs, reflected in the introduction of pathbreaking products. For instance, the Company created an entire category (men’s fairness cream) where none existed and now accounts for a major market share of the segment. Emami leverages diverse media (print, television, digital and outdoor) to enhance product visibility. Emami enlisted national celebrities (Amitabh Bachchan, Shahrukh Khan, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Kareena Kapoor and Virendra Sehwag) to endorse its products, cutting through the competitive clutter, emerging as the leading company in the country’s rubefacient, chyawanprash, balm and ayurvedic segments to utilise national celebrities. It also enlisted regional film stars like Suriya, Rituparna Sengupta, Prosenjit, Chiranjeevi, Junior NTR and Mahesh Babu to enhance its local visibility. Emami endeavours to offer the best products - in India and across world. The result is that Emami possesses a global base of millions of everyday consumers.
