RB Mavericks 2015
RB Mavericks Case Challenge invites applications from the brightest and smartest brains of the B-Schools listed below to solve a real business challenge on Dettol, an iconic brand considered as the gold standard in germ protection. Dettol has been consistently ranked amongst the top 10 Most Trusted Brands in India consecutively for more than 10 years by Brand Equity.
According to the Public Health Association, only 53 per cent of the population wash hands with soap after defecation, 38 per cent wash hands with soap before eating and only 30 per cent wash hands with soap before preparing food. Diarrhoea and respiratory infections are the two biggest causes of child death globally. Hand washing with soap could substantially reduce diarrhoea and respiratory infections, but prevalence of adequate hand washing is very low in our country.
For 80 years, Dettol has been the trusted partner of health for millions of mothers across the country, to protect their family by preventing illnesses, infections and is globally recognized as the market leader. While Dettol started by preventing infections and sickness in hospitals, our brand’s mission has always been much bigger- The Mission for Health. We believe your hands are your first and most critical defence in staying healthy.
Globally, campaigns like 'Give life a Hand' have helped improve health, hygiene and hand washing practices across the world. In India, we have partnered with NDTV for an ambitious 5 years program ‘Dettol Banega Swachh India’ to address the rising need of hygiene and sanitation with the objective of driving behaviour change towards hand hygiene and improving sanitation facilities.
