Helios : Shoe-care products form an integral part of grooming for every individual
It is a proverbial scoff that shoes convey useful information about their wearers. Even the legendary fictitious genius of ‘Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’ has reiterated the importance and reliability of judging a personality based on the way he has maintained himself even when it comes to his shoe-care.
By Mr. Sahil Gupta, Managing Director, C.P. Marketing Inc.
It is apparent that we choose our shoe-care products which on one hand caters to our style, class and status and on the other bestows our shoes with shine, durability and longevity. However, in India our preference remains limited to only buying shoes and we don’t really understand the requirement of shoe care products. And this is the reason why the category of shoe-care products in India is still very small.
As per a recent industry report, currently the participation of shoe-care
products in the shoe industry in India is not more than 1 per cent, while in other regions like Europe, the amount of shoe-care business is 5-6 per cent of the shoe market. Looking at the Indian population as a huge customer base, obviously there is a significant untapped potential in shoe-care segment. Such scenario offers an attractive and very profitable business opportunity, provided stress is laid on adequate consumer education and awareness. The Indian consumers need to understand that well maintained shoes matter the most, as a pair of beautifully made expensive shoes never stand their ground if these are unpolished, torn, faded or dirty.
Still, growing at the current pace, I’m sure within the next five years, the shoe-care segment will be an established category and it will be able to garner double digit growth easily. It is because, fast growing Indian population, maturing middle-class and more and more well-educated people who want to spend more on aspirational brands, have presented a sizeable opportunity in this segment. Making the most of this opportunity, we have already established ourselves as one of the biggest players in this segment. C.P. Marketing Inc, “under the wide umbrella of its shoe-care brand Heliohas already presented an exhaustive range of shoe care products such as trendy and innovative products for suede & nubuck leather, shoe creams, wooden shoe trees, sports cleaners, shoe, besides many other such product
variants.”
At Helios, we envision to change the mindset so far as choice and purchase of shoe care products in India is concerned. There is a need to change the demand pattern from need based to aspiration based, as these products form an integral part of grooming for every individual.
