4. Diversified Portfolio Dabur Business category Consumer care division Consumer health Care division Dabur foods Ltd (de-merged With DIL, 07)

5. “The Brand Dabur” turn-around  Why? Overall slowdown in FMCG sector Stiff competition To target young India- “the largest segment” Modernize old Brand Equity- “intangible asset” Streamline/Synergize business operations

9. Special focus on South India  South India contributed only 7% for Dabur  Contributed 25% in overall FMCG sector  Dedicated marketing team created  Three step approach: POS promotion and better stocking practice Customized packaging and commercials Customized product launch  Sales increased from 7% to 10% (2002-06)

10. Other initiatives worth mentioning  Dabur International Ltd, Dubai 2003  11.4% of total sales 2005-06  Introduced SAP ERP System-2005  switched to E-Procurement  Inorganic Expansion; Balsara

11. The Flip Side  Indiscriminate use of the brand across price points may dilute the brand equity.  A finger in many pies  Brand worth still not 100% satisfactory

12. The Path Ahead  Changing Demography  Growth in purchasing power  Growth in rural and urban demand  Telecom, lifestyle, entertainment et al sectors competing with FMCG for share in consumer’s wallet  Growth in organized retail sector

13. Recommendations  Expansion  Keep Innovating  Enter organized retail with exclusive customized formats  Opt out of non-profiting sectors  Crystal Clear Brand and Product Differentiation  Consolidate Herbal and Natural differentiation strategy
