Overview of Pencil Making Industry in India
Manufacturers are always finding new ways to enhance their value sales. The new strategy used by most manufacturers involved some innovative consumer packaging strategies. Many manufacturers launched pens in sets of three and five in order to drive sales. For instance, Linc Pens and Pencils launched a pack of three priced at 20 for the Indian market. A similar strategy was used by other brands, such as Reynolds and Cello.
In 2013, Hindustan Pencils continued to lead writing instruments with a value share of 10%. The companys position can be largely attributed to the pan-Indian presence of its Nataraj and Apsara brands. The company also launched various writing accessory products under the Nataraj brand. The company has maintained its leading category position mainly thanks to its strong distribution network and the brand loyalty consumers have towards its flagship brand Nataraj, which is almost considered synonymous with pencils in India
The writing instruments category in India will be driven by an increasing population, which is the second largest in the world. Almost 65% of the population are also under the age of 35. The potential market for companies providing educational services is thus immense, compared with other nations. The literacy rate in India will drive sales further.
