Financial Times: Reckitt Benckiser held steady in a falling London market on Friday amid talk of potential acquisitions.

When Reckitt Benckiser Group Plc (RB/) brought its Veet hair-removal cream to China, sales were sluggish. The problem: Most Chinese women don't have much body hair, and those who do didn't worry about it.

So the company came up with a new marketing plan. Instead of simply explaining what Veet does, Reckitt Benckiser introduced ads that equate hair-free skin with health, confidence and "shining glory." In the process, the company has helped make many Chinese women self-conscious about every stray follicle.

"It's not how much hair you have, it's how much you think you have," Aditya Sehgal, the company's China chief, said by phone from Beijing. "If your concern level is high enough, even one hair is too much."

Veet has become Reckitt Benckiser's fastest-growing brand in China. As the company's growth slows in Europe and the U.S., Asian sales of hair removers are rising 20 percent annually, Euromonitor reports, almost double the rate of women's razors and blades.

Lots of pumplings and dumplings going on.
I assume the correction towards £29 will be a speedy one!

Hope this helps

What odd comments you make. Contradictory in what way? you also make it sound as though i owe you some kind of explanation for my comments when in fact I dont. DYOR and you'll find plenty of financially capable competitors ready and easily able to swallow this company, split it in two or three and divest it across a number of predators you fool

[grahamburn] 02/8/2012 21:27

Strange comment. What foundation?

WHO would be big enough, complementary enough, competition-free to make such a move?

Answers on a postage stamp?!!
