Bisleri Moves into Sanitizers

It was strange to know this, the big Bisleri is entering into ...what ? ... yes ... Santizers. Though tactically they don't call it Sanitizers; still it is a competition with the sanitizer biggies like dettol, and others.

Why would it be ? 

  • Is the water market getting crowded ? Bisleri shouldn't bother much; as still it holds 60% market share, and performing well over others. 
  • Is it that they want to be seen as a diversified player ?
  • Or simply the stakeholder's mood ? 

They are saying, they are entering after everyone else using the "last mover advantage" ; however, they pitch themselves as the pioneers in the bottled water market. Sounds funny.

God knows what's the intention; looks really strange. However, Bisleri hasn't done well with its parallel energy drinks as well, just a sidenote. They might claim this, but masses know bisleri for its water, not for any of its energy drinks so far !
