Wagh Bakri to use Delhi as gateway to go national |
Business Standard New Delhi , 30 Aug, 2009
Shahana Joshi |
The century-old Wagh Bakri tea group has decided to start its operations in North India and plans to use Delhi as its gateway to setting up a national footprint. “People in Delhi certainly love their tea — more than what we see in Mumbai and other cities. Quality tea and consistency is what this brand promises,” said Parag Desai, CEO of the Wagh Bakri group, who also plans to open a tea lounge in this city.
 The company’s advertising and promotion is being handled by Triton and Percept. And, in another six months, India can expect to see Wagh Bakri’s first television and print advertisements. Which will be mainly female-centric, as women are about 60 per cent of their customers, notes Desai. He says there will be no filmstars or famous brand ambassadors to promote the product.
However, the Rs 400-crore company, which is aiming at a five per cent market share in North India by 2010, has many hurdles to cross. Wagh Bakri tea, a family-owned regional company, is the leader in Gujarat, where it has a 50 per cent market share.
The group also has operations in Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Rajasthan.
The North Indian market, though, is dominated by national brands like Tata Tea and Brooke Bond. Tata Tea’s executive director, marketing, Sangeeta Talwar, adds, “Competition from domestic brands is a possibility but it would take a long time.”

World wide there is a fear of Recession in the current down turn scenario, but there is one Indian Company that is swimming against the tide.
The Wagh Bakri Group with a turnover of Rs.400 crore and brands which are household names in India, North America, Australia, UK and Middle East have decided to aggressively invest for customer satisfaction and innovation and to target a 50% growth rate in the Middle East, speaking at Gulf Food exhibition, where the company has for the first time ever launched staple free teabags.
Shri Rasesh Desai, Managing Director of the Group said that last year after the launch of our premium teabags in Dubai, we had done through a professional agency a Consumer Insight Study where consumers have said that the current stapled double chamber teabags is not considered hygienic and they would prefer teabags which are staple free.
The company took this as a challenge and discussed this Consumer Research Insight with IMA, Italy which is one of the world’s largest Tea bag Machine Company. IMA after eight months of thorough R&D has just delivered the first IMA C-27 machine to the Wagh Bakri Tea Group which has big plans to launch these tea bags in the Middle East where more than 70% of all tea consumers consume in the form of teabags and customers deserve this type of cutting edge and world’s best teabags. |
