GCPL is building a strong backbone, to leverage the data-rich environment of e-commerce to its full potential. COVID-19 has accelerated digital adoption across shoppers, making them opt for direct-to-consumer (D2C) channels which offer more convenience. Recent shifts in consumer behavior also indicate a strong preference for online buying. This has prompted brands to exclusively launch products on e-commerce platforms like Amazon, Big Basket and Flipkart.

Commenting on the digital-first strategy, Sunil Kataria, Chief Executive Officer – India & SAARC, Godrej Consumer Products Limited (GCPL), said, “One of the emerging consumer needs across product categories is high efficacy with great convenience.

We are innovating to offer such niche products created exclusively as e-commerce first products.”

These small but powerful pods fight stains without damaging fibres, colour protect and work well even in hard water. The pods are convenient with their pre-measured packaging, where one pod can be used for a full load of clothes in a washing machine. The formulation reduces scaling, clogging of pipes and is a more sustainable solution in the long run with its zero wastage and zero spilling properties. The ‘Ezee-flow’ technology, ensures equal dispersion of detergent amongst the clothes and provides a superior, long-lasting fragrance. The pods are priced at INR 400 for a set of 20 and are available on Flipkart, Amazon and Big Basket.

Under Godrej Protekt, India most trusted home and personal hygiene brand, GCPL has introduced Godrej Protekt All-in-1 Dishwasher Tablets, a revolutionary product in the dishwashing segment.
