GROWTH of HERO HONDA
OBSERVATION For the first time that the joint venture company between Honda of Japan and the Hero group (promoted by the Munjals) has clocked over four lakh units in a single month. Sources say that this could well continue into September too when despatches will be high to meet the festive season demand. Hero Honda has constantly banked on its Splendor and Passion brands as its key growth drivers and the fact that customers still swear by them is a tribute to their durability despite stiff competition. The two Honda entities now have a vice-like grip in the Indian two-wheeler segment though both have entirely different priorities when it comes to their product range and customer profile. The idea is to steer clear of each other’s core competencies so that the customer base does not come under any threat. HERO HONDA ’ s coming out as a WINNER says a LOT !!!
