11. HISTORY
THE LEGEND OF HERO HONDA
What started out as a Joint Venture between Hero Group, the world's
largest bicycle manufacturers and the Honda Motor Company of
Japan, has today become the World's single largest two-wheeler
Company. Coming into existence on January 19, 1984, Hero Honda
Motors Limited gave India nothing less than a revolution on two-
wheels, made even more famous by the 'Fill it - Shut it - Forget it '
campaign. Driven by the trust of over 5 million customers, the Hero
Honda product range today commands a market share of 48% making
it a veritable giant in the industry. Add to that technological excellence,
an expansive dealer network, and reliable after sales service, and you
have one of the most customer- friendly companies.
This is proved by the company's sales over the years:
1985-86 43,000 units
1989-90 96,200 units
1998-99 5,30,600 units
1999-00 7,61,210 units
2000-01 10,29,555 units
2001-02 14,25,195 units
2002-03 16,77,537 units
Customer satisfaction, a high quality product, the strength of Honda
technology and the Hero group's dynamism have helped HHML scale new
frontiers and exceed limits.
In the words of Mr. Brijmohan Lall Munjal, the Chairman and Managing
Director, "We will continue to make every effort required for the
development of the motorcycle industry, through new product development,
12. technological innovation, investment in equipment and facilities and through
and through efficient management."

The manufacturer and wholesaler must decide how to distribute
their products. Working through established distributors or manufacturers'
agent generally is most feasible for small manufacturers. Small retailers
should consider cost and traffic flow as two major factors in location site
selection, especially since advertising and rent can be reciprocal. In other
words, low-cost, low-customer traffic location means you must spend more
on advertising to build traffic.
The nature of the product or service also is important in location
decisions. If purchases are made largely on impulse (e.g., flavored popcorn),
then high customer traffic and visibility are critical. On the other hand,
location is less a concern for products or services that customers are willing
to go out of their way to find (e.g., restaurant suppliers). The recent
