ADES – Indonesia

 

Objective:

Ades, a legacy bottled water brand in Indonesia, has been in the market since long and is a part of the Coca-Cola umbrella. Despite its familiarity in Indonesia, the brand has lost market share to competitors, some of them far newer, and has been reduced to low single digit market share.

There was an urgent need to relaunch Ades and revive the brand, with the main objectives as follows:

  • To gather sufficient insights into the category, competitors, and the brand’s drivers, to be able to relaunch Ades as a stronger brand in the bottled water category.
  • To understand the positioning of Ades, vis-à-vis some of the major rivals in the crowded Indonesian bottled water market, and carve out a differentiation area to re-establish itself.
  • To assess the acceptability and chalk out a pathway for Ades to enter the hydration category with offerings beyond water (vitamin / flavoured / isotonic).

METHODOLOGY

Online Quantitative Research using Relevance TAGS® Methodology. Coverage of core target groups, and six major competitor brands in Bottled water in Indonesia.

Approach:

Relevance set out by understanding the bottled water category and consumption habits related to it, the when, the where, the how and most impostantly, the why. Using Relevance TAGS® methodology, we found out what the brand Ades stood for, and where it was losing its value to the major competitors in the market. We found the core needs for the consumers and what drives their consideration of water brands, and concluded where Ades was falling short of its competitors. We also analysed the emotional profile of Ades vis-a-vis its competitors, and arrived at those areas of positioning which needed to improve in order to rebuild the trust around this legacy brand. 
We also investigated the attitudes and perceptions towards other Hydration categories, and evaluated the acceptance of Ades in some of those newer categories. We ended with key recommendations of what approach should be taken and what needed to be done, to reestablish Ades as a force to reckon with, in the Indonesia market.
