  • Serving India's
    Serving India’s Rural Supermarket RURAL MARKETS HAVE EMERGED AS AN IMPORTANT GROWTH ENGINE IN INDIA’S CONSUMPTION STORY. Housing some 70% of India’s 1.2 billion population, the hinterland can be best termed as a vast ‘supermarket’ that is ushering in a new impetus into India’s overall economic progress. Thrust on rural development and infrastructure; an increased rural investment scenario; farm-loan waivers and growing disposable income in the pockets of Rural Indians - are all key factors in stimulating overall rural consumption. As demand for everyday products gains momentum in the hinterland, rural consumers are climbing up the value chain, with the result that incremental consumption expenditure in rural India is signifi cantly ahead of urban India. In fact, with an increase in income and awareness levels, consumption in rural India is converging with the larger, more affl uent towns. MOREOVER, RURAL CONSUMERS ARE EXHIBITING AN INCREASED PROPENSITY TO SPEND ON HIGH- QUALITY BRANDED PRODUCTS THAT ARE BACKED BY STRONG VALUES, SIGNALING CONTINUED BUOYANCY IN INDIA’S CONSUMPTION STORY. As a leading FMCG player with a wide portfolio of brands, robust distribution network and deep-rooted understanding of consumer behavior, Dabur India is well-positioned to penetrate the immense rural supermarket. WE ARE TAKING A FRESH LOOK AT OUR RURAL MARKETING STRATEGIES; STRENGTHENING OUR DISTRIBUTION REACH; SHARPENING OUR MARKETING TOOLS; AND CHARTING OUT FRESH COMMUNICATION PLANS. We intend to take continuous proactive measures for optimising our portfolio, products and channels. We aim to synchronise this goal with our broader aim of connecting with the rural masses through affordable price points and relevant product offerings.

DABUR INDIA LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2011-12 behind a billion 1, , Dabur - a name, a brand, a way of life for billions of people across the globe. From its humble beginnings in the bylanes of Kolkata way back in 1884, Dabur has today emerged as a true Indian Transnational with a portfolio of products that has not just won the trust of consumers in over 60 countries but has become an inseparable part of their daily routine. Dabur has been in the business for over 127 years, yet it behaves as a young company that appeals and remains relevant to the youth, not just in India but in every part of the world. And it’s their support and trust that as helped Dabur surpass the Rs 50 billion ($1 billion) turnover mark in 2011-12. Over the years, we have learnt that to cross such far-reaching milestones, one needs not just great products, but excellence, nimble-footedness and committed channel support. But most importantly, one must establish a deep connect with both mature and young consumers - by understanding them fi rst and then by delivering them world-class products that they can appreciate. INDEED, WE BELIEVE THAT OUR $1-BN MILESTONE IS THE RESULT OF THE BILLION PLUS SMILES OUR PRODUCTS HAVE BROUGHT TO THE FACES OF OUR CUSTOMERS. As the leading Ayurveda and Nature-based Consumer Products Company in the world, we continue to be resolved in the pursuit of excellence for delivering sustained success and continuing leadership.

Website: www.icmrindia.org MKTG/099 REPOSITIONING DABUR Our research showed that consumers found it difficult to distinguish Dabur as a corporate brand and as a master brand. The positioning was unclear to the public. So, we decided to embark on a brand recast to identify brands based on their product properties. This essentially means that Dabur is shedding its age-old umbrella brand strategy, where its entire product portfolio was under one roof. - Sunil Duggal, CEO, Dabur India Limited in 20041. INTRODUCTION In 2004, Dabur India Limited (Dabur) which started as a medicine manufacturer in 1884, was ranked at number four in terms of sales among the Fast Moving Consumery Goods (FMCG) companies in India.

  • Brand Positioning.Doc.Docx
    Brand Positioning Introduction In marketing terms, there is no such thing as a product or service that exists by itself in space, independent of the consumer. For a product to exist, it must find a place in an individual consumer's perception of the world of products around him or her. And this perception is subjective, governed by the individual consumer's values, beliefs, needs, experience and environment. The cognitive map of the individual is not a photographic repre sentation of the physical world...Every perceiver is, as it were, to some degree a non-representational artist, painting a picture of the world that expresses his individual view of reality. This is the core thought behind brand positioning - the idea that each brand (if at all noticed) occupies a particular point or space in the individual consumer's mind, a point that is determined by that consumer's perception of the brand in question and in its relation to other brands. The spatial distance between the points in that consumer's mind reflects the subject's perception of similarity or dissimilarity between products and brands. The everyday phrase, 'poles apart', is a simple example of how consumers position products in their mind; for example, an electric shaver vs. a razor. In the section entitled 'Product and Brand Positioning' in his book, Marketing Management, Prof. Philip Kotler says: ―Once the core product concept is chosen, it defines the character of the product space in which the new product has to be positioned. An instant breakfast drink means that this product will compete against bacon and eggs, breakfast cereals, coffee and pastry, and other break fast alternatives...‖ Assume that the instant breakfast drink concept is selected.

  • New Horizons New Opportunities Capturing Newer Horizons
    Half Yearly Financial Report 2010 - 2011 New Horizons New Opportunities Capturing Newer Horizons From its birth in the bylanes of Calcutta, Dabur India Ltd has come a long way. Dabur is today the fourth largest FMCG Company in India and the world’s largest Ayurvedic and Natural Health Care Company. Over the years, Dabur has successfully transformed into a multi-location transnational business with a presence across 60 countries and catering to the ever-changing needs and aspirations of the local populace across these diverse markets. In addition to the 13 manufacturing units spread across India, Dabur's global footprint today includes manufacturing facilities in Nepal, Bangladesh, Dubai, Ras-al-Khaimah, Nigeria, Egypt and Turkey, besides overseas arms in London and Pakistan. The year 2010-11 saw Dabur capture newer horizons with its first-ever overseas acquisition with Hobi Kozmetik Group of Turkey in July 2010. As this report goes to print, Dabur has entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire Namasté Laboratories LLC of the US, giving the company a foothold in the ethnic hair care market in the US and Africa. These acquisitions are in line with Dabur’s strategy to aggressively expand its scale of operations and strengthen its presence in the fast moving consumer goods space in overseas markets. They mark an important step towards further consolidating and expanding Dabur’s already substantial overseas market presence.
