2. Hero MotoCorp Ltd. Formerly Hero Honda, is an Indian
motorcycle and scooter manufacturer based in New Delhi, India.
Hero Honda started in 1984 as a joint venture between Hero Cycles
of India and Honda of Japan. The company is the largest two
wheeler manufacturer in India. The 2006 Forbes 200 Most
Respected companies list has Hero Honda Motors ranked at #108.
In 2010, when Honda decided to move out of the
joint venture, Hero Group bought the shares held by Honda.
Subsequently, in August 2011 the company was renamed Hero
MotoCorp with a new corporate identity. On June 4, 2012,Hero
MotoCorp approved a proposal to merge the investment arm of its
parent Hero Investment Pvt. Ltd. into the automaker. The decision
comes after 18 months of its split from Honda Motors.
3. “Hero” is the brand name used by the Munjal brothers for their
flagship company, Hero Cycles Ltd. A joint venture between the
Hero Group and Honda Motor Company was established in 1984
as the Hero Honda Motors Limited at Dharuhera, India. Munjal
family and Honda group both owned 26% stake in the Company.
In 2010, it was reported that Honda planned to sell its stake in the
venture to the Munjal family.
During the 1980s, the company introduced motorcycles that
were popular in India for their fuel economy and low cost. A
popular advertising campaign based on the slogan 'Fill it - Shut it
- Forget it' that emphasized the motorcycle's fuel efficiency
helped the company grow at a double-digit pace since inception.
The technology in the bikes of Hero Honda for almost 26 years
(1984–2010) has come from the Japanese counterpart Honda.
4. Hero MotoCorp has three manufacturing facilities based at Dharuhera,
Gurgaon in Haryana and at Haridwar in Uttarakhand. These plants together
are capable of churning out 3 million bikes per year. Hero MotoCorp has a
large sales and service network with over 3,000 dealerships and service
points across India. Hero Honda has a customer loyalty program since 2000,
called the Hero Honda Passport Program.
The company has a stated aim of achieving revenues of $10 billion and
volumes of 10 million two-wheelers by 2016–17. This in conjunction with
new countries where they can now market their two-wheelers following the
disengagement from Honda. Hero MotoCorp hopes to achieve 10 per cent
of their revenues from international markets, and they expected to launch
sales in Nigeria by end-2011 or early-2012. In addition, to cope with the
new demand over the coming half decade, the company was going to build
their fourth factory in South India and their fifth factory in Western India.
There is no confirmation where the factories would be built.
