Berger Paints Aims to Grow Market Share Amidst Competition
Berger Paints is working hard to get more customers in the paint market.
They want to grow their business and plan to do this by offering their products in more places and making more paint.
They believe that the recent changes in the market will not change who the biggest paint companies are.
They are investing money to increase how much paint they can make.
They also want to be like the companies that are new to the market, to be able to better compete.
Berger Paints aims to increase its market share from 20% to 25% in the coming years.
JSW Paints' acquisition of Akzo Nobel India is not expected to significantly alter the market, according to Berger's MD & CEO.
Berger Paints plans to expand its distribution network and enhance its presence in key markets like Maharashtra and Gujarat.
The company is investing Rs 2,000 crore to increase its paint production capacity.
Berger is both an incumbent and insurgent in the paint market, competing with larger players.
