Hero Honda's company profile
The joint venture between India's Hero Group and Honda
Motor Company, Japan has not only created the world's
single largest two wheeler company but also one of the most
successful joint ventures worldwide.
During the 80s, Hero Honda became the first company in
India to prove that it was possible to drive a vehicle without
polluting the roads. The company introduced new generation
motorcycles that set industry benchmarks for fuel thrift and
low emission. A legendary 'Fill it - Shut it - Forget it'
campaign captured the imagination of commuters across
India, and Hero Honda sold millions of bikes purely on the
commitment of increased mileage.
Over 20 million Hero Honda two wheelers tread Indian roads
today. These are almost as many as the number of people in
Finland, Ireland and Sweden put together!
Hero Honda has consistently grown at double digits since
inception; and today, every second motorcycle sold in the
country is a Hero Honda. Every 30 seconds, someone in India
buys Hero Honda's top -selling motorcycle – Splendor. This
festive season, the company sold half a million two wheelers
i n a single month—a feat unparalleled in global automotive
history.

Hero Honda bikes currently roll out from its three globally
benchmarked manufacturing facilities. Two of these are
based at Dharuhera and Gurgaon in Haryana and the third
state of the art manufacturing facility was inaugurated at
Haridwar, Uttrakhand in April this year. These plants
together are capable of producing out 4.4 million units per
year.
Hero Honda's extensive sales and service network now
spans over 3000 customer touch points. These comprise a
mix of dealerships, service and spare points, spare parts
stockiest and authorized representatives of dealers located
across different geographies.
Hero Honda values its relationship with customers. Its unique
CRM initiative - Hero Honda Passport Program, one of the
largest programs of this kind in the world, has over 3 million
members on its roster. The program has not only helped
Hero Honda understand its customers and deliver value at
different price points, but has also created a loyal
community of brand ambassadors.
Having reached an unassailable pole position in the Indian
two wheeler market, Hero Honda is constantly working
towards consolidating its position in the market place. The
company believes that changing demographic profile of
India, increasing urbanization and the empowerment of rural
India will add millions of new families to the economic
4
mainstream. This would provide the growth ballast that
would sustain Hero Honda in the years to come. As
Brijmohan Lall Munjal, the Chairman, Hero Honda Motors
succinctly points out, "We pioneered India's motorcycle
industry, and it's our responsibility now to take the
industry to the next level. We'll do all it takes to
reach there.''
HERO HONDA. 'S MISSION
Hero Honda’s mission is to strive for synergy between

This mission is what drives Hero Honda to new heights in
excellence and helps the organization forge a unique and
mutually beneficial relationship with all its stake holders.
HERO HONDA'S MANDATE

FROM THE CHAIRMAN'S DESK
LEADING WITH A DREAM
We had a dream. The dream of making motorcycles that
would touch and transform the lives of our customers by
giving them a mode of transport that was fuel-efficient,
comfortable and environment friendly. One that would
enhance their efficiency at work, enable them to share
moments of joy with their families and add up to a better
quality of life.
In a scenario where the customer had a few choices, our
vision was to offer the highest quality at a reasonable price,
to meet our customer’s expectations, and to exceed them.
Behind the success of Hero Honda, is the saga of team-work.
We would like to acknowledge the role played by our JV
partners, Honda Motor Company, Japan, and all our business
associates, shareholders and employees

ABOUT THE CHAIRMAN
Brijmohan Lall Munjal – Seeding a Dream
"Don't dream if you can't fulfill your dreams'' Brijmohan Lall
Munjal is often fond of saying. The founder and patriarch of
the $ 2.8 billion Hero Group is your classic first generation
entrepreneur. He is a man who started small, dreamt big and
used a combination of grit and perseverance to create one of
the country's largest corporate groups and the World's No.1
Two Wheeler Company.
Instinctive from a young age, Brijmohan Lall made a rather
unusual start in life. Around the time when the freedom
movement in India was taking shape in the late 1920s, he
walked into a newly opened Gurukul (Indian heritage school)
near his home in Kamalia (now in Pakistan). He was only six
years old then.
Thus began an extraordinary tale of courage and
perseverance. Brijmohan began his business story after
partition in 1947, when he and his brothers relocated to
Ludhiana. The family set up a company that provided poor
people with basic transport (cycles). Three decades later, as
India evolved, he added a second crucial chapter - which
visualized affordable and technologically superior transport
to millions of middle class Indians. The rest is history.
9
Building Relationships
When Brijmohan and his brothers started out, there was no
concept of organized dealer networks. Companies just
produced, and most dealers functioned like traders.
Brijmohan changed the rules of the business by trusting his
gut instincts; introducing business norms that were ahead of
their time, and by investing in strategic relationships.
Brijmohan built a series of bonds and networks with
hundreds of family members, vendors, dealers and
employees. Much like the Japanese keiretsu system, these
networks are now the glue that holds the Hero Group
together.
"Thanks to the relationships that we have nurtured so
passionately in the Hero Family, the younger generations of
some of our bicycle dealers have become dealers of Hero
Honda. These relationships have survived through
generations - through bad times and good times'' the
patriarch now reminiscences.
Besides bonding with his vendors and dealers, Brijmohan has
been personally responsible for kindling a spirit of
entrepreneurship amongst his employees, and today, 40 of
his former employees are successful entrepreneurs.
10
Staying Ahead
Though not technically qualified in the conventional sense,
few of his contemporaries have understood the dynamics of
technology better than Brijmohan Lall has. He could always
visualize the applicability of technology before others could.
For example, in the 1980s, when all two-wheeler companies
in India opted for two-stroke engine technology, Brijmohan
preferred a four-stoke engine - a technology that
dramatically increased fuel efficiency and reduced
maintenance costs. This technology was one of the biggest
reasons for Hero Honda's stupendous success.
Time and again, Brijmohan managed to steal a march over
his industry peers. For example, when Honda Motors of Japan
was looking for a collaborator in the 1980s, the Hero Group
was not high up the pecking order initially as there were
other more eligible and established suitors.
Yet it didn't take long for the astute Japanese to realize that
the Hero Group and Honda had much more in common than
earlier perceived; there a sharp focus on financial and raw
material management, and employee turnover was low.
Honda officials were also amazed to find that the Munjals
were already practicing "Just-in-time-inventory" at the time
(JIT). It turned out that Brijmohan Lall's aspiration to provide
11
cheap transportation to India's poor by default ensured lean
and cost-effective operations. This in turn increased vendor
efficiency and led to near-zero inventories.

of 12.6% per cent. The company had sold 8,14,777 units

of the company are located. The adverse situation impacted
other industries in the region as well. Thanks to the
initiative taken by the Haryana government, the situation
has improved and production is expected to be back on
track.

29
company in the premium deluxe segment, in Western India
during this month. The bike was very successfully launched
in South India in the previous month and has been very well

consolidating its indisputable leadership in the market.
