...manufacturing & marketing of personal care & healthcare products. With over 300 diverse products, Emami’s portfolio includes trusted power brands like Zandu, Boroplus, Navratna, Fair & Handsome, Mentho Plus, Fast Relief & Sona Chandi Chyawanprash. Triggers We expect Emami’s Net Sales & PAT to grow by 16.9% & 219.7% respectively over FY12-14. Growth momentum could continue in its power brands viz Boroplus, Navratna, Fair & Handsome & Zandu, led by higher A&P spends, distribution expansion and brand extensions. The management aims to grow each of its power brands to Rs 8-10 bn over the next 5 years. Strong R&D & aggressive marketing & distribution would continue to support portfolio expansion, like in the past. The company’s sub-segmentation strategy of launching variants and brand extensions has worked out well. Emami is a market leader in under penetrated segments like Fairness cream, Antiseptic cream and Cold cream market. Robust outlook of personal care market could prove to be beneficial for Emami going forward. Even the cooling oil market outlook is robust & hence Navratna Oil would do well. Rural India would be a major growth catalyst going forward. Emami expects its revenue share to go up further through focus on value for money products, increase in brand promotion (with the help of celebrities as brand ambassadors) & distribution and rise in rural household incomes. After a flattish growth in 9MFY13, the management expects the...

It is the major driving force for international business. Learning value: This chapter covers the essential aspects, 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Definition of international business Emergence of developing nations in international business Motives of international business from companies and nations Fundamental differences between Domestic and International business Few successful organizations in Domestic & International business International business: Meaning and Scope In the post independence era, more than half-century Indian entrepreneurs concentrated on domestic operations and a surplus production was exported. The physical movement of goods, called EXPORT cannot represent International business. International business is defined as “any commercial transaction-taking place across the boundary lines of a sovereign entity”. It may take place either between countries or companies or both.

Sometimes economic ties are strengthened through such transactions. These transactions include investments, physical movements of goods and services, transfer of technology and manufacturing.
