Global consumer goods companies, including Unilever, Coca-Cola, Mondelez, and Reckitt Benckiser, identify India as a key long-term growth market due to rising incomes, urbanisation, and a large middle class. Unilever's CEO Fernando Fernandez described India as a blueprint for emerging-market growth, highlighting targeted acquisitions and quick-commerce advantages. Other firms emphasize India's resilient demand, premiumisation, and expanding distribution.
