While the rural markets across FMCG witnessed a significant slowdown, we were able to maintain a significant competitive advantage through our focus to enhance rural footprint and our diligent market practices, which is reflected in the robust topline growth and consistent gain in market share. We continued to invest behind our brands and relaunched “Good Day”, one of our power brands, with the concept of “Multiple Smiles in a pack” backed by TV, print & outdoor media, and visibility drives, towards the end of the quarter.”
On the cost front, Berry added, “we continued to witness an increase in commodity prices with inflation of ~4% sequentially (quarter on quarter) and ~20% over last year. As market leaders, we actioned price increases ahead of the competition. However, the upward trajectory in prices of commodities and fuel impacted profitability, which led us to action further price increases and accelerates cost efficiency programs.”
“We are confident that our resilient Brands and strategic growth initiatives will hold us on a path of sustainable & profitable share gain in the future as well,” Berry lastly said.
