The Consumer:
Today's young Indian consumer is very aware of the brand Parachute. She is modern in outlook, she is demanding and she knows she has several choices in brands. She believes in the goodness and the nourishing properties of coconut oil. But she is also exposed to different brands that are great in terms of looks and sensorial. While she may still believe in the goodness Parachute offers, she needs a product that is in tune with her current needs.
