Commenting on the results and performance, Ramesh Kumar Dua, Chairman and Managing Director said: “We have achieved a moderate increase in revenue for FY24, with a notable improvement in profitability. This performance was largely driven by a significant uptick in open-footwear volumes, a testament to the efficacy of our strategic initiatives to regain market share. During the quarter, the company has implemented Quality Control Orders as issued by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and now all our products are ISI marked. This year, we have taken major sales transformation initiatives to enhance our connect with distributors, retailers and consumers. We have undertaken a major digital initiative to have our retailers directly connected with the company through our ‘Relaxo Parivaar’ app. In a short time frame, we have achieved an industry leading retailer connect through the app and expect this to grow further in the coming year. To help our distributors drive secondary sales to retailers, we have equipped them with a revamped Distributor Management System. We are also expanding our ecommerce operations by directly selling to consumers using ‘Brand as a Seller’ model on all major ecommerce platforms. These initiatives will help the company to improve our market connect and have a positive impact on growth.” Result PDF
