are ready to even spend extra for the product.

Sampoorna. It was a runway hit, selling 1,00,000 sets in the very
first year.
• Coca-Cola : provides low-cost ice boxes, that is a tin box for
new outlets and a thermocole box for seasonal outlets
considering lack of electricity and the absence of refrigerators in
rural areas

of the rural market

model to reach villages

match the needs of rural consumers, at a price
that they feel.
 Low disposable income, daily wage earners
attract small unit packs.

50gm.
Some of the products like Sunsilk, Head &
Shoulders, and Colgate cost around Rs. 1 and Rs. 2
for sachets
