This included targeted promotional campaigns, participation in industry events, and leveraging digital platforms to reach a wide audience of parents and healthcare professionals.

  3. Educational Initiatives: Recognizing the low baby oral care rates in Asia, We developed comprehensive educational programs for healthcare professionals, specifically dentists. Online and offline educational activities were conducted at hospitals and clinics, providing valuable information on the importance of baby oral care and proper techniques. These initiatives aimed to empower dentists to educate parents and advocate for early oral care practices.

Results:

  1. Market Expansion: Through the collaborative efforts, Lansinoh/Pigeon successfully expanded the baby oral care market in Asia. Over 100 distribution points were established within a span of 10 months, ensuring wider availability of the products and reaching a larger customer base.
