In terms of BMR, we had an fantastic execution in overall UAE and results being fabulous. Lulu: It has grown in shares by +12.1pts
since launch by holding a share of +37.8% in Week 35. Johnson’s growth is directly proportional to Sebamed’s decline in Baby
Toiletries. Within Kids: Its shares grew by +28.2pts since launch by holding a share of +66.2% in Week 35. Carrefour: It has grown
in shares by +2.9pts since launch by holding a share of +38.2% in Week 29 for Baby Toiletries. Within Kids: Its shares grew by
+2.8pts since launch by holding a share of +59.0% in Week 29. However, we still need to observe for next two months to
understand the actual performance
After challenging Q1 and Q2 2019, we have improvised our business in Q3 2019 by growing +2.7 pts from -7.4 decline in YTD June
2019 to -4.7% in YTD Sep 2019. Our top priorities for rest of the year is to reduce CIW, reduce inventory and increase consumer
consumption. Hence our strategy is to focus on the lead customers which contribute 70% of our total UAE business by re-
negotiating the spends, understanding the customer’s business model and tapping the right contact, planning and executing right
promo mechanics, executing several local initiatives to increase brand awareness and ofcourse finding several ways to increase
revenue through various alternative channels like eCom and hospitality services.
Overall, each and every team member are striving for organizations growth and success by being one team with one goal in mind.
All in all, I personally appreciate the entire team’s effort who are involved in Johnson & Johnson business for such an amazing Q3
2019 results and wish for its continued success for the balance of the year.
