brands then penetrate to the brands in different price level and different
markets eventually implemented in its consumer brands. The prices of this
products are highly moderate, what this brand charges is worth giving. It has
the proper pricing strategy for each and every brand of their product line. If
the quality is higher than another they charge a little bit more than the other
product. So basically they are following contrast of value based & benefit
pricing.

the Garnier Institute are: "The combination of beauty and fashion".
On the other hand position statement for all other L'Oreal products are:
"All natural, all for you”. So by highlighting their natural factor they
are differentiating themselves form others. Their distribution is highly

the first company in America to receive the EDGE (Economic
Dividends for Gender Equality) certification, which recognizes companies for
their gender practices. This makes it the sixth company around the globe
to be certified. So their 3rd party sources play a vital role to leverage the

costs to some extent then it will be easier for them to retain large amount of
customers. Because a lot of people might have willingness to buy their products
but can’t afford to buy them for their high pricing.
