I DON’T WANT TO TALK IN TERMS OF MARKET SHARE.
I DON’T WANT TO SHARE MY MARKET WITH ANYONE.
-LARRY LIGHT, CEO

The Beginning
A&P’s 8 O'clock
Coffee in 1900s
Background of PLB
 Earlier referred as Cheaper & Low quality alternatives for national
brands.
 Just a profit making concept which needed no marketing effort
 Tescos Value Range in 1995 was the first value pay brand
 Other retailers like Sainsbury etc. quickly followed the suit
 In India in 2000s this concept came up & Future Brand came up with
“SACH” toothbrush & toothpaste range.
Why Did It All Begin?

to National Retailers
 High Quality & Low Price

strong house brand.
How does PLB work?

 Offers value for money
 Increases the price competitiveness
 16-23% less price for the consumers as compared to national brands

only
