COMPETITION AND INDUSTRY

COMPETITION AND INDUSTRY



Every successful business has competitors.  Your competitor could be a new business offering a substitute or a better product. Knowing who your competitors are and what are they offering can help the company to make their products, services and marketing stand out.



Competitors are of two types:

v  INDIRECT COMPETITORS

  Ø  Soap Cakes:
§  Nirma
§  501
§  Henko
§  Rin Supreme
§  Sunlight
§  Wheel

The price of the above mentioned products are as low as Rupees 5- 15. Many households in both urban and rural areas still use soap cakes and also the low-income households who do not use washing machines.

  Ø  Liquid Detergent:
§  Vanish
§  Henko
§  Tide Bleach
§  Ezee
§  Ujala
§  Rin
§  Robin

The above-mentioned products are priced near to the price of the detergent powder. But powder out - performs the liquid as the liquids are used very rarely, like for delicate material clothes. Most households prefer detergent powder for their daily use.



v  DIRECT COMPETITORS

  Ø  Detergent Powders:
§  Ariel
§  Tide
§  Nirma
§  Vanish
§  Henko
§  Robin
§  Wheel
§  Mr. White
