However, he also emphasised on the importance of understanding India's diverse consumer landscape and said the company remains focused on customer-centricity and tailoring offerings to varied consumer needs. "India is not one market and it is certainly not one consumer. It is dozens of markets layered on top of each other by income, geography, language, aspirations, habit and taste. The opportunity ahead of us is not just to serve the India that ...

Startups and regional brands are not only good for providing variety to consumers but also give established players the push to improve their product offerings, Nestle India's outgoing Chairman & Managing Director Suresh Narayanan said.
