PRIVATE-LABEL PENETRATION

 The product is an inexpensive, easy, low-risk purchase for the consumer.


 It is easy to make from commodity ingredients.
 It is perishable, thereby favouring local suppliers.
 Product category sales are large and growing, so private labels can more easily garner sufficient volume to be
profitable.
 The category is dominated by a few national-brand manufacturers, so retailers promote private labels to reduce
dependency on them.
 It has more margin than national brands.
PRIVATE-LABEL CHARACTERISTICS:

 Private-label goods have been available to consumers for many years.


 Distribution is well-developed.
 Variability in quality is low.
 Quality in comparison with national brands is high and improving.
 Consumers have confidence in their ability to make comparisons about quality.
PRICE AND PROMOTION FACTORS:

 Retail gross margins in the product category are relatively high.


 Price gaps between national brands and private labels are wide.
 National-brand expenditures on price promotions as a percentage of sales are high, raising price sensitivity and
encouraging consumers to switch brands.
 The credibility of national-brand prices is low because of frequent and deep price promotions.
STRATEGIES TO COUNTER PRIVATE LABEL

 Invest in brand equities-Managers must continually monitor how consumers perceive the brand.
 Innovate- technological upgradation-
 Using fighting brands-
 Build trade relationship-The best consumer goods companies should know more about their consumers and their
categories than any private-label manufacturer.
 Manage price Spread-National-brand manufacturers must monitor the price gap both to the distributor and to
the end consumer between each national brand and the other brands, including private labels, in every market.
They must also understand how elastic the price is for each national brand—that is, how much effect changes in
price have on consumers
 Exploit sales-promotion tactics-they can distribute coupons to households in areas where retailers are
aggressively providing private-label products.
