Emami aims to stay 'deeply invested' in Ayurveda, achieve competitiveness

FMCG firm Emami aims to achieve higher levels of competitiveness in the present volatile economic environment and intends to "stay deeply invested" in its core area of Ayurveda, its Chairman R S Goenka said on Friday. The Kolkata-headquartered company will emphasise on packaging innovations especially for LUPs (low unit packs) and bridge packs to drive up consumption amongst lower-end consumers amidst increasing inflation, Goenka said at the company's annual general meeting. While focus on analytics and technology in sales and distribution will be further strengthened to drive the business ahead, Goenka said. "Talking about our future roadmap, your company aims to achieve higher levels of competitiveness in a volatile economic environment," he said. Emami, which owns Zandu Ayurveda and has a portfolio of over 300 products based on Ayurvedic formulations across its brands, believes "Ayurveda will continue to be more relevant," he said.
