Abstract
Based on a large UK paint manufacturer's experiences in the late 1980s, presents a proposal for
market entry into Germany. Gives reasons why entry into this market is a challenging
proposition. Local requirements make a market research-based adaptation of the marketing
mix elements necessary. Furthermore, additional challenges are presented by the East-West
split of the German market following reunification which calls for a flexible entry strategy,
responding to local rather than national needs. The exploratory stage of the development of a
workable market entry proposal in co-operation with German partners is mapped in this case
study.
I have tried to find an academic article about entry strategies of a paint company into the Indian
market. I could not find such article, but there is another article about entry strategies deployed
by a major UK company entering the German market. In this article, titled ” Proposed Entry
into the German Market (Tiara Paints) “, by Claudio Vignali; Ruth A Schmidt and published
in Management Decision Vol.: 32, No.: 3, March, 1 1994 [Page 29-33]the author came to the
conclusion that local strategies instead of national strategies will work especially when going
into a culturally different or mixed-culture market. From this we learn that Asian Paints must try
to gain insights into local purchasing habits of the consumers, and mould its strategies
accordingly.

Asian Paints is the market leader in the highly fragmented and highly competitive Rs 7750 crore
($1.73 Bn) Indian paint Industry.Theorganised sector constitutes around Rs 540
0crore ( $1.2 Bn).
Asian Paints started its journey in 1942 with four young men in a garage in Bombay. The name
Asian Paints was picked randomly from the telephone directory. The brand has traveled from
that garage to become a Rs 1000 crorebrand.From1968 ,this brand occupies a premium position
in the Indian Paint industry.
The story of the evolution of Asian Paints as a brand is interesting. The brand now has an iconic
status in the industry thanks to some blockbuster big ideas from O&M. The brand once
positioned as a mass market brand has evolved itself to a higher plane.
Indian paint industry can be broadly divided into two segments
a.Decorative segment which constitutes the wall paints : exterior and interior, wood paints etc
b.Industrial segment which consists of automotive paints, and paints for industrial sector.
Decorative segment constitutes around 75 % of the total paint industry and Asian Paints is the
market leader with around 44% share. In the Industrial segment, Nerolac is the market leader.
In the decorative segment, it is interesting to see how Asian Paints have changed the buying
process of the product like paints.Paintsare usually considered to be a low involvement product.
In earlier times, the decision of the brand was taken by the builder/contractor and the home
owners does not involve much in the process may be the decision of color rest with the house
owners.
Asian Paints realized the need for brand building even during sixties. But at that point of time,
the company had a wide range of brands/subbrands. The focus of the company was on product
innovation and service network and managing quality proposition.Th
20
e brand focused on mass and rural market. Asian Paints had a
mascot called Gattu who was created by the celebrated cartoonist R K Laskhman.These efforts
made the brand a leader during the late sixties.
Then the company realised that although volume justified the leadership position, share of mind
for the brand was very low.That was the result of the mass segmentation adopted by the brand.
Rightly so because the industry was driven by channel driven promotions, building a brand at
that time was" uncommon sense". During 1983, the company tried to reposition the brand as a
premium brand. Asian Paints initiated the corporate campaign aimed to position the company as
the number one player in the industry.The objective was to upgrade to a more margin premium
product marketer .The corporate campaign " Spectrum of Excellence" was aimed to increase the
Salience of the brand in a quiet market.
But this campaign failed to inspire any interest in the consumers and the company felt that the
market is moving towards a commodity market where price is the most important differential.
Asian Paints undertook a consumer research aimed at understanding the perception of consumers
about the product category. The research revealed lot of interesting insights. Consumers felt that
paints could change the mood of the space and it was a sign of festival and plenitude.It could
make a gloomy place bright and pleasant. From this insight came the campaign of Asian Paints
associating itself with festivals. Research also confirmed that customers tend to repaint their
houses on the occasion of festivities. Thus born the campaign "Celebrate with Asian Paints". The
campaigns were carefully crafted and there were different campaign for different regions. These
campaigns effectively enhanced the brand equity of Asian Paints and established itelf as a
premium brand. More than that , these campaign ensured an emotional connect with a brand in a
low involvement category.The brand also phased out many subbrands and rest of the subbrands
was brought under Asian Paint's umbrella brand.
21
During the late nineties the brand had to be reinvented. Because no longer festivities formed an
important part in ones life. Since many brands went after festival seasons,the positioning
platform has become cluttered.More over the consumer buying behavior has changed. The
category was becoming less seasonal. People started associating more importance to home decor
and interiors. The choice of color became a high involvement decision. From a low involvement
category, paint was increasingly becoming a high involvement category.
The brand also went in a brand overhaul. The logo was changed to a contemporary upmarket one
designed by Entreprise IG based in Singapore.The logo/design was to convey self expression,
sophistication and Technology.
Thus came the birth of a wonderful positioning strategy created by O&M. The insight was that
the brand is about people and homes and homes reflect the people living in it. Hence "
HarGharKuchKehtaHai" translated to " Every Home has a story to tell". This campaign is a
perfect example of a brand laddering up and connecting to a higher level in the mind of the
customer. The campaigns reinforced the brand as a premium emotional brand.
Along with the campaign Asian Paints also ran parallel ads for its subbrands. Saif Ali Khan
endorsed the premium brand Royale .For Apex Ultima, the campaign was highly localized and
was different in different market
The Asian Paints group is pursuing a three-pronged strategy to drive its export business to
quarter of its total turnover within the next five years. Largely spun around the emerging
markets, the three-way export strategy will primarily see the group train its eyes on markets
where it could gain leadership position, countries where it sees opportunities for growth and
nations where licensing arrangement possibilities exist.
22
The group has under its fold Asian Paints, Apco Coatings, Berger International and Scib.
Through Berger International, it has presence in dozen countries. Its presence in Egypt is through
Scib. Both are acquired units. Asian Paints has a presence in Sri Lanka through an acquisition. In
five countries, it is piggy riding on Apco Coatings.
Mr. Dani said the group had a leadership position in Bahrain, Nepal, South-Pacific Region and
the Caribbean. The group, he said, had identified Egypt, the UAE, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh,
Thailand and Malaysia as `growth focus areas'. The group felt that licensing arrangement could
be the least cost route to grow into some countries. "We can be present in some countries but
avoid financial costs," he said. In this context, he said the group had broken into countries such
as Indonesia, Pakistan and Malta through this licensing arrangement. The foray into Pakistan and
Malta happened only in the last few months.
Under the licensing arrangement, it would provide technology and brand support to local firms
with whom it had tie-ups. Mr. Dani said the group had also identified niche countries and
segments and citied Oman for wood finish and China for protective coatings. Mr. Dani, who is
also the Chairman of Berger International, said post-acquisition of Berger and Scib there had
been a good cash flow and asserted that, "We can support the business growth through internal
accruals."
To a question, he admitted that it was a real challenge for the group when it acquired Berger
nearly one-and-a-half-years ago. "Overnight, they quit 12 countries. It was a real challenge to
integrate them with Asian Paints," he said. Mr. Dani said the group still had to do a lot of work
on a strategy to cross sell technology/brands/products across varied outfits and geographical
areas. Effective alignment of HR (human resources) across operations with the overall group
corporate vision would be a tough task ahead in the coming days.
While asserting that "emerging markets will be our play ground," he said the group would follow
the `hub and spoke' approach and empower regional centres to build size and skill to drive the
value for the group as a whole. A chemical engineer, Mr. Dani entered the family business by
default when one of the founder-promoters sold his holding to a multi-national company,
23
triggering a convulsion at Asian Paints. The wheel had come a full circle when the MNC had
sold the shares back to the Danis. The younger Dani has a passion to make the group an MNC to
reckon with in the international sphere in all respects.

Asian Paints Analysis
Political And Legal Analysis:-
The Political condition and Government rules and regulations of the country can affect any
industry whether that is at introduction, growth, maturity or at
decline. The same case is with the paint industry of India. From the many years, the political
condition of the country is not very certain. The high costs
of the petroleum products, energy crisis and lack of infrastructure are the major hurdles in the
growth of this industry. Government will have to focus on this
industry because it is generating revenues for the country.
Economic Analysis:-
Economy has a critical role in fostering the success or creating problems for any organization.
Similarly in case of paints industry, this industry is facing
instability in the sales and growth from many years. Government has imposed sales tax and
heavy duties on imports of raw materials. Paints industry of India import raw materials so import
duties have increased the production cost thus decreasing the profit margin.
Recessionary conditions continued to prevail as the government pressed on with its efforts to
document the economy. The construction industry, the slow trading industry, and the trading
environment resulted in an overall market shrinkage in the decorative business by 10%. Against
this back drop the business however has able to increase its market share by 1% through its
strong advertising and promotional campaigns and effective after sale service.
The industrial business continued to deliver a robust performance driven by penetration of new
market segments within the general industry sector.
25
Social Analysis:-
In recent years, paint industry has shown a lot of concern for society. Industry is very conscious
about environmental pollution, which occurs because of the
production of paints. The paint producers are trying to produce those products which are free
from the harm full chemicals.

Macro environment:
DEMOGRAPHIC: If we see the demography of Asian Paints. Then this factcome most of its
customer’s are age of 35-40 years.
Technological Environment: They have installed a plant in the company which purifies
all the harmful material from the disposal. Moreover they are also using the latest technology for
paint making. They are also using latest technology for advertisement of their product.
Natural Environment: Asian Paints are producing mercury free and lead free paints,
which are environment friendly Asian Paints approaches the environment issue from the
perspective of waste minimization and conservation of resources. Thus, the continued attempt is
to reuse, recycle and eliminate waste, which results in less and less waste being generated.
Accordingly, our material losses in manufacturing have been reduced substantially over
the last few years.
Further, the company's four paint plants and the two chemical plants have the ISO
14001 certification for environment management standards. The company's latest manufacturing
facility which is situated at Sriperumbudur near Chennai will be certified for ISO 14001 in this
financial year 2006-07.
All their paint plants have achieved 'zero industrial discharge' capability. This has been achieved
by the installation of upgraded effluent treatment facilities and installation of reverse osmosis
plants in conjunction with appropriate recycling and reuse schemes. Our emulsion manufacturing
facility has also achieved 'zero waste' status. We have adopted the principles of "green
productivity".
Some of our innovative schemes which enhance green productivity are dealer tinting systems
which has resulted in large batch sizes ; bulk storage facility for monomers which reduces
wastage; Use of natural gas which is a cleaner fuel ; solvent recovery
31
plants have been set up which has resulted in zero reduction of solvent disposal ;
Improved incinerating systems and reverse osmosis.
