Chapter 1 : Introduction
About the Company (Formation, Vision, Mission, Objectives,
Dabur India Limited is a consumer care and health care products company. Product
portfolio offered by the company includes personal care products, health care products,
home care products and foods. Dabur also offers ayurveda-based healthcare products. It
markets its products in India as well as in International markets as Middle East, South-
East Asia, Africa, the European Union and America. The company operates through four
divisions namely Consumer Care Division (CCD) that deals in FMCG products across a
wide spectrum of market segments; International Business Division (IBD) that focuses on
developing Dabur's business abroad; Consumer Healthcare Division (CHD) that deals in
the classical and OTC range of products which are grantha based and which follow strict
Ayurvedic formulations; and Retail Division which is currently in the development
phase. The company is headquartered at Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, India.
In 1998, for the first time in the history of Dabur, a non-family member took charge.
Dabur handed over the operations to professionals. Successful implementation of
procedures, timely changes and maintaining its essence, Dabur achieved its highest-ever
sales figure of Rs 1166.5 crores in 2000-01.

As FMCG sector was struggling with the slow growth in the Indian economy, Dabur
decided to take numerous strategic initiatives, reorganize operations and improvise on its
brand architecture beginning 2002. It decided to concentrate its marketing efforts on
Dabur, Vatika, Anmol, Real and Hajmola to strengthen their brand equity, create
differentiation and emerge as a pure FMCG player recognized as a herbal brand. This
was chosen after a study with Accenture, which revealed that Dabur was mainly
perceived as a Herbal brand and connected more with the age group above 35.
Also, larger retailers were making their foray into the FMCG market. Apart from HLL,
P&G, Marico and Himalayan, ITC was also posing a challenge. The supply chain of
Dabur was becoming complex because of the large array of products. Southern markets
share in the sales figure was negligible. These factors posed a threat to Dabur and hence
small changes were not enough.

competitors, or stop you being able to meet objectives. This section will present main
weaknesses of Dabur India.

Over pricing, setting too high prices for Dabur India products/services makes them uncompetitive, which is a major weakness.
Seasonal Demand (like Chayawanprash in winter and Vatika not in winter).
Low penetration (Chayawanprash).
Opportunities are external changes, trends or needs that could enhance the business or
organization’s strategic position, or which could be of a benefit to them. This section will
outline opportunities that Dabur India is currently facing.

currently facing.
Competition in the FMCG sector from well established names.

Consumer lifestyle changes could lead to less of a demand for Dabur India products/services.

New Entrants in the market.
2. INDUSTRIES ANALYSIS OF FMCG SECTOR2. INDUSTRIES ANALYSIS OF FMCG SECTOR
22
The Indian FMCG sector is the fourth largest sector in the economy with a total market
size in excess of US$ 13.1 billion. It has a strong MNC presence and is characterized by a
well established distribution network, intense competition between the organized and
unorganized segments and low operational cost. Availability of key raw materials,
cheaper labour costs and presence across the entire value chain gives India a competitive
advantage.
The FMCG market is set to treble from US$ 11.6 billion in 2003 to US$ 33.4 billion in
2015. Penetration level as well as per capita consumption in most product categories like
jams, toothpaste, skin care, hair wash etc in India is low indicating the untapped market
potential. Burgeoning Indian population, particularly the middle class and the rural
segments, presents an opportunity to makers of branded products to convert consumers to
branded products. Growth is also likely to come from consumer 'upgrading' in the
matured product categories. With 200 million people expected to shift to processed and
packaged food by 2010, India needs around US$ 28 billion of investment in the food-
processing industry.
WHY INDIA
Large domestic marketLarge domestic market
India is one of the largest emerging markets, with a population of over one billion. India
is one of the largest economies in the world in terms of purchasing power and has a
strong middle class base of 300 million.

Market (Towns/Villages) 3,768 627,000
Universe of Outlets (mn) 1 3.3
Around 70 per cent of the total households in India (188 million) reside in the rural areas.
The total number of rural household’s is expected to rise from 135 million in 2001-02 to
153 million in 2009-10. This presents the largest potential market in the world. The
annual size of the rural FMCG market was estimated at around US$ 10.5 billion in 2001-
02. With growing incomes at both the rural and the urban level, the market potential is
expected to expand further.
India - a large consumer goods spender
An average Indian spends around 40 per cent of his income on grocery and 8 per cent on
personal care products. The large share of fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) in total
individual spending along with the large population base is another factor that makes
India one of the largest FMCG markets.

Change in the Indian consumer profile

Population (millions) 846 1,012 1,087
Population < 25 years of age 480 546 565
Urbanization (%) 26 28 31
Rapid urbanization, increased literacy and rising per capita income, have all caused rapid
growth and change in demand patterns, leading to an explosion of new opportunities.
Around 45 per cent of the population in India is below 20 years of age and the young
population is set to rise further. Aspiration levels in this age group have been fuelled by
greater media exposure, unleashing a latent demand with more money and a new
mindset.
Demand-supply gap
Currently, only a small percentage of the raw materials in India are processed into value
added products even as the demand for processed and convenience food is on the rise.
This demand supply gap indicates an untapped opportunity in areas such as packaged
form, convenience food and drinks, milk products etc. In the personal care segment, the
low penetration rate in both the rural and urban areas indicates a market potential.
