INDUSTRY
PORTER’S FIVE MODEL FORCES- Hair color industry
Bargaining power of suppliers
With the company’s plans to develop its own manufacturing facilities in India, it is attempting to
decrease the bargaining power of the suppliers by decreasing its dependence on them. By doing
so, it is also decreasing the costs and risks of switching the suppliers.
Company’s move into herbal & natural products would definitely help it to explore a better
supplier market in future.
Bargaining power of customers
The bargaining power of the customers, which should have been high, due to the low switching
costs involved, is actually low due to the brand loyalty. The buyers are ready to pay premiums
for their brand rather than switch to other brands.
However, to establish Brand loyalty, Radico has to fight out a lot with existing strong players to
match the bargaining power of customers.
Threat of potential new entrants
Since the capital investments are low, growing market, other companies which are already
present in hair care market will enter hair color market, so the threat of newer entrants is higher.
But this can be decreased by achieving economies of scale and huge customer loyalty.
Also, lots of foreign players are entering into a very lucrative Indian market,which has to be
considered as a serious threat to existing & future product portfolio.

12. Threat of substitutes
There is little differentiation between different types of hair color products in the Indian market.
On the other hand, the customers preferring 100% natural products will not like to go for non-
natural products.
Also, Henna, Mehandi which has been used traditionally for years by Indians is a very easy,
cheap & trusted alternative.
Present competition
The present competitive rivals of the company are mainly, Godrej, Revlon, Wella (P&G),
Schwarzkopf and L’oreal, with the L’oreal and Garnier brands. Other competitors are Bigen and
Blackrose, etc. Godrej is the market leader with approximately 40% (which consists of their hair
dye, powdered color and their hair color Godrej Colorsoft). L’oreal has a market share of 25% (it
does not compare with Godrej as they want to increase their profit margins over the next few
years). Revlon has a market share of about 12% and Wella has 8%.
 Generally hair color market 2016 is Rs.2900 crores in India. So generally first targeted
hair dye companies those who have gray hair But now a days youth preference on style
so their hair as preferring different hair styles in dying. At present problem is gray hair is
coming 15 years only irrespective of gender so more haircare market increase it increase
also hair color market. Urban New saloons my open and rural already present players
concentrate their strategy and New FDI well come Hire care sector It may Help economy
like expanding business help in Indian G.D.P.
Segmentation- Middle age group 35-50, Younger generation 18-34.
Targeting- Youth and mid generation.
Positioning- In Hair color industry Different companies position their products according
people preference based gender and color choice through advertisements or taglines of the
product.

main differentiator between Godrej and other players is that Godrej have kept manufacturing
close to the consumer. So whether it is in Indonesia, Africa, or India, Godrej is That closer the

by lowering specific energy consumption.

dedicated to one product. This allows Godrej to make production schedules switches, and
now have the capability to switch at short notice. Godrej only company that makes daily

company manage its supply chain. It uses APO (advanced planning and optimization), a module
of SAP to plan efficiently and manage the front-end distribution system. Since the company
