PRODUCT FACTOR

Dabur's Health Supplements range includes products like Dabur Chyawanprash, which strictly follows the original recipe that was laid down centuries ago. Dabur now offers the same age-old benefits of Chyawanprash in two new variants -- the sugar-free Dabur ChyawanPrakash and the chocolate-flavored granular Dabur Chyawan Junior.

How Chyawanprash works?
Dust, pollution, stress, competition takes a lot out of life every day. No doubt modern science has contributed a lot in bettering the quality of life but sadly not without side effects, drug induced toxicity, reaction, allergies resulting in weakened immunity system. With each passing day, life seems to become even more stressful than the day before. So as we juggle amidst our varied responsibilities, we aren't able to keep up our inner strength. And thus, we tend to become vulnerable and over-stressed. Knowing this, we must ensure that we're always in control of our lives. And for that, nature has blessed us with the Ayurveda. That power, which builds our inner strength that'll keep us ready, ever-ready for life.
STRENGTHS
ü  Youthfulness:
Is there a person who does not want to retain youthfulness? We don’t know any. Youthfulness is not a yonder possibility; it can very well be sustained by a simple effort of taking the prescribed daily dose of Dabur Chyawanprash. It also helps in improving memory attention and concentration. The research done by I.M.S., BHU, Varanasi proves it.
ü   Stamina:
Stamina, the power within that differentiates between achieving and
losing. One might overlook, but the fact remains that to meet everyday
challenges of modern day life head on, one needs to have enough
stamina to succeed. And the daily dose of Dabur Chyawanprash
provides you with it.
ü  Immunity:
Simply put, immunity is body’s most reliable defense against diseases
and it can be made stronger. Dabur Chyawanprash has ingredients
that help strengthen the immune system.

ü  Round the year protection:
Dabur Chyawanprash - the immunity-builder, does something unique. It strengthens the body's own defense mechanism. Thereby building up resistance and giving your body the inner strength to fight and win its own battles against stress and infections. It gives physical, emotional and spiritual balance which gives you the confidence to take life head-on.
Bad health knows no season; it can strike you anytime of the year, be it summer, winter spring or autumn. Dabur Chyawanprash strengthens your immunity system and protects you all year long. There prevail many apprehensions and myths about its usage, one of which is regarding its usage during non-winter months. Study shows that the effects of Chyawanprash on the general health status remain positive throughout the year.

'   What is that life worth which cannot bring comfort to others'


     For growth to be responsible, it should go beyond numbers... It should do good to the society, create a better world. That's the kind of growth that Dabur India Ltd. believes in, and constantly strives for.


    At Dabur, our commitment to good governance, ethical conduct and social responsibility is core to our way of doing business, and is strongly aligned with our drive to create and increase value for all stakeholders.

It aims to reach out to the weaker and more vulnerable sections -- such as women and children, illiterate and unemployed – of the society.



ECONOMIC FACTOR

   OPPORTUNITY

    It is apt to say that not a day in the lives of people is complete without using Dabur’s product and it is the company’s commitment to evolve with the changing needs of its customers that has helped a 125 year old Dabur emerge a favorite among even the modern Indian consumer and win market share across categories.

   Dabur Chyawanprash, which is the flagship brand in this category, recorded goods gains in 2007-08 to 64.1% in 2008-09 (volume share as per A C Nielsen).




    People power

    Dabur India employs about 3000 employs across all areas of operations. The company has a team of well qualified scientists, ayurvedic doctors, pharmacist culture specialist to drive its R&D.



 
     A state-of-the-art Greenhouse facility has been set up at Banepa, which has the capability to produce 5-6 million saplings of medicinal plants per annum. All the required climatic parameters for uniform growth of saplings of the medicinal plants like temperature, humidity etc. are controlled by automatic computer systems.

TECHNOLOGICAL FACTOR


    Opportunity

   Ã¼  Production & technology center is being set, to ensure that the brand maintains    the highest level of quality & innovation.

ü  Dabur Chyawanprash is adding technology for launching its new product of Chyawanprash, the sugar free Chyawanprash for diabetes patient and the Dabur Chyawan junior in chocolate flavor for children, with the aim of improving customer experience and increasing supply chain efficiency.

  
      Dabur Chyawanprash: using technology to good effect

   When input costs rise, you usually expect this show up in the profit margin. But companies now have many sophisticated tools in their armoury to manage their material costs.
   GIVEN its unique basket of herbal FMCG products, many of Dabur India's raw materials, which include such items as herbs, spices and honey, are seasonal and have to be bought from various sources. To complicate matters, prices of inputs such as sugar and vegetable oils, and packaging material went through the roof in 2003-04. Yet Dabur India says it successfully cut procurement costs last year, thanks to technology.
    In December 2002, Dabur signed up with Free Markets, a global firm which provides IT -enabled solutions that help companies streamline their procurement process. IT-enabled sourcing solutions or "e-sourcing" as it is commonly called, typically allows a company to link up all its suppliers online, rank them on the basis of costs and performance; and procure materials through bidding "events" conducted over the Net.
    In Dabur's case, the technology from Free Markets has significantly cut procurement costs, reduced the cycle time for purchases and shortened the negotiation process for buying materials, claims Mr Jude Magima, the company's Vice-President for Corporate Procurement and Planning.
    In 2003-04, Dabur procured Rs 210 crore worth of materials, half of its total raw material spend, through the e-sourcing channel. The e-sourcing initiative has not been restricted to non-critical inputs alone. In fact, the company says a whole host of herbal raw materials including saffron, spices and essential oils, have been procured online.

    The company has also e-sourced a good bit of its services and logistics, not to talk of the hardware and packing materials. These initiatives have helped pep up Dabur's profit growth, despite the rising commodity prices.
