Having controlled by three major players Pampers, Huggies and Mamy Poko pants, other players are taking exist from diaper industry in the country due to unprofitable situation in last few years.
The need for diapers was present since the ancient times. However, earlier when the baby diapers were not available, Indian parents used cloth or other materials for infants. With development in technology and design, the present day diapers came into existence. Awareness is increasing through the media campaigns about the different diaper brands and the benefits of using disposable diapers over cloth versions. Even in smaller towns and cities, parents are now willing to spend money on disposable diapers when the baby is taken out of the home, for added convenience. In India, P&G’s Pampers dominates the diaper industry. The brand remained popular due to its long presence in country and promotional campaigns but the company’s gamble on premium products seems to have backfired now.
