Activity Description: Indian consumer goods giant Hindustan Lever is aggressively pursuing BOP markets. The company uses decentralized production, distribution, and marketing to sell to the poor. It also produces a number of single-serve low cost items designed specifically for rural environments. For example, its "Wheel" brand detergent has a reduced ratio of oil to water, formulated especially for rural poor who wash their clothes in rivers.
