This is distributed under Nirma products with exclusive of 450 distributors. In parallel distributors it has reached 2000. It works on Nima products; it has wider reach, Speedy market intelligence, Competitive edge and better focus, and last but not least complementing principal channel. Both the channels have reached two million retail outlets and more than 40 million loyal consumers on its list.
