    Beverages is the fastest-growing category this year: Kantar Brand Footprint India 2023 Report

    Mumbai: Kantar has released the 11th edition of its annual Brand Footprint India report. The report ranks the most chosen (in-home & out-of-home) FMCG Brands based on consumer reach points (CRP’s). CRP considers the actual purchase made by consumers and the frequency at which these purchases are made in a calendar year.

    This year’s report splits the most chosen brands across in-home and the newly launched out-of-home (OOH) list for the first time. The OOH list has been introduced keeping in mind the evolution in the behaviour & preferences of the Indian consumer.

    Key findings: In-Home segment:

    1.  With a CRP score of 7449 million, Parle holds the top spot for a record 11th year in a row, followed by Britannia, Amul, Clinic Plus and Tata Consumer Products.  

    2.  Overall, consumer reach points have increased almost 50 per cent in last five years.

    3.  Four new brands: Balaji, Lux, Sunsilk, Nirma joined the Billion CRP club in 2022. Over the last five years, the number of brands in the billion CRP club has increased from 16 to 28.

    4.  Beverages is the fastest-growing category this year.

    5.  More than half of the brands grew in terms of CRP. This number is highest in the Foods & Beverage categories:

    6.  Dairy brands have low penetration but higher frequency to have more reach points:

    Key findings: Out-of-home segment:

    Speaking about this year’s report and rankings, Kantar MD-South Asia, Worldpanel Division  K. Ramakrishnan said, “Consumer choice is the ultimate strength test for a brand and Brand footprint has been a widely acclaimed ranking system to measure this for the past 10 years. As we see over the years, consumers are making increasing trips for purchase and that adds their options and in turn their choice. This is reflected in the constant increase in CRPS we observe. As purchases for out-of-home consumption are on the rise and seem to have different choice triggers, we found it necessary to introduce a ranking specifically for these categories, where there is a significant out-of-home component.”

  • ITC Fiama launches its first Sandalwood Oil & Patchouli Gel Bar with Rashmika Mandanna

    ITC Fiama launches its first Sandalwood Oil & Patchouli Gel Bar with Rashmika Mandanna

    Mumbai: Sandalwood has been an integral part of bathing rituals across various cultures globally. The refreshing and relaxing scent of sandalwood is known to enhance positivity. ITC’s Fiama, amongst the leading personal wash brands in India, continues to disrupt and innovate in the wash segment, with the recent launch of the unique Fiama Sandalwood Oil and Patchouli Gel Bar. ITC Fiama gives the sandal soap a modern twist. The traditional opaque sandal soap category will witness an innovative experience with sandal in a transparent Gel Bar format. In addition, Patchouli as an ingredient with sandalwood oil brings in a fresh olfactive sensorial experience while preserving the traditional aspects that make sandal soaps special – its fragrance!

    The unique amalgamation of sandalwood oil and patchouli evokes a warm, earthy and exotic sensory experience that blends harmoniously to create a captivating and alluring long lasting fragrance.  The Gel Bar’s fragrance enlivens, energizes and true to the brand ethos, uplifts the mood.   

    The emotion of the Fiama Sandalwood oil and Patchouli gel bar is epitomized by the vivacious, young and spirited new star of Indian cinema, Rashmika Mandanna. As the new brand ambassador, Mandanna brings in her youthful, free-spirited, happy-go -lucky attitude that vibes well with Fiama’s cheerful and vibrant brand repertoire. 

    ITC Ltd. divisional chief executive (Personal Care Products Business Division) Sameer Satpathy said, “Fiama Sandal disrupts the segment with its innovative gel bar format and a unique ingredient mix which is modern yet preserves tradition. We are delighted to have Rashmika Mandanna on board. The product promises a new experience and this, coupled with Rashmika’s infectious energy makes Fiama Sandal a must try.”

    Conceptualized by Ogilvy, the launch film, further captures this refreshingly new vibe in the sandal soap segment. Morning routines are different for different people and almost everybody mark the beginning of a fresh new day with an invigorating and fragrant shower! Often, the daily rigor adds to the lack of a restful sleep leading one to hit the snooze button one time too many. Rashmika as the protagonist embraces a new day with renewed energy. The background score, Rashmika’s playful energy and the unique Fiama Sandal gel bar evokes a delightfully retro yet modern sensibility that is fresh, a lot of fun and presents a must try vibe. 

    Mandanna added, “Since childhood, I have always seen sandal soaps in a certain ritualistic and ancient way, more so owing to my Coorgi roots. Fiama Sandal and the way it is being presented breaks every set notion of a typical sandal soap. I am proud to be a part of this exhilarating journey to redefine the emotion, promise and perception of a sandal soap.”

  • Healthfab partners with Almond Branding to transform its visual identity and expand global presence

    Healthfab partners with Almond Branding to transform its visual identity and expand global presence

    Mumbai: Healthfab, the pioneering company founded in 2019 by Sourav Chakrabarty, Kiriti Acharjee, and Satyajit Chakraborty to provide comfortable and hassle-free solutions to menstruating women, has undergone a remarkable transformation with the strategic expertise of Almond Branding. The revamp encompasses a fresh visual identity, standardized communication strategy, and an ambitious global expansion plan.

    Healthfab initially set out to make the lives of working women in their families easier by creating a stand-alone reusable period panty, the GoPadFree. The product addressed the challenge faced by women who found it difficult to work during their periods due to the lack of a suitable place to change and dispose of old pads. After rigorous testing and feedback incorporation, GoPadFree became the first and only leak-proof reusable standalone period panty in India, garnering significant success both domestically and internationally.

    Healthfab co-founder Sourav Chakrabarty, expressed, “Our mission at Healthfab has always been to provide cost-effective and comfortable solutions to women of all backgrounds, challenging preconceptions while promoting innovation in health and hygiene through eco-friendly and sustainable methods. The collaboration with Almond Branding has been instrumental in amplifying our vision and taking Healthfab to newer heights.”

    Almond Branding, known for its expertise in startup branding, played a pivotal role in reshaping Healthfab’s visual identity. Initially focusing on revamping the logo, the collaboration soon evolved into creating a comprehensive Visual Identity System that harmonizes all aspects of communication, from product packaging to the website and social media.

    Almond Branding founder Shashwat Das shared, “At Almond Branding, we believe that a visual identity transcends a logo alone. It’s a triumph when a brand can be recognized even without displaying its logo. We take pride in developing such Design Language for our clients, ensuring consistency in all forms of communication.”

    The result is a refreshed logo that embodies Healthfab’s core values of comfort, care, and sustainability, inspired by a comforting hug that symbolizes the nurturing experience the brand offers. The captivating colour scheme of turquoise and purple portrays a refreshing, modern, innovative, caring, and trustworthy brand. The newly introduced iconography style reflects care, comfort, affection, and the joy of life, while an illustrative format conveys product details effortlessly.

    Additionally, Healthfab’s commitment to sustainability is evident in the retention of the brown outer packaging box, symbolizing the brand’s mission to eliminate disposable period products and promote eco-friendly practices. By using minimal colours yet dynamic visual elements, even the brown box was transformed into an object of delight.

    Almond has also revamped Healthfab’s Shopify-based website design, transforming it into an information hub for this niche category. The comprehensive revamp has successfully unified all aspects of Healthfab’s brand, resulting in increased website traffic and heightened brand awareness. With the brand infused with renewed energy and vigour, Healthfab is poised for significant expansion in key markets such as India, Middle East, USA, Europe, and Australia.
