Asian Paints started its journey in a garage in Gaiwadi, Giraon, Mumbai with the efforts of Champaklal Choksey and his three friends, who founded the company in 1942. Before World War II there were some foreign companies and some Indian companies in the paint industries of India. During World War II, paint import was banned in India, by which the Indian companies got good opportunities in the paint industry.
Innovation plays a great role in the success of the company because the company has always innovated new product range as per the demands. It has placed a fixed thought in the minds of the people that Asian Paints is the best paint.
The company began its journey in a garage located in Gaiwadi, Girgaon, Mumbai. By looking at this opportunity, Mr. Champaklal Choksey along with his three friends, Chimanlal Choksi, Suryakant Dani, and Arvind Vakil, in the year 1942, he started Asian Paints in Mumbai. He was an expert in finding the consumption trend of paints, and he used to make strategies on the basis of those strategies. He started with decorative paints. Initially, he had a challenge that how to establish Asian Paints as a brand, and for that, he wanted the assistance of paint marketers, but he was ignored by the distributors of big cities.
The distribution network is very crucial in the paint industry. Mr. Chokey went to the villages, in the rural areas. He started his first distributorship in Sangli, Maharashtra. The shopkeepers in the city liked to directly approach the company, besides approaching the distributors. He found an opportunity on the festival of Pola which is celebrated in Maharashtra, in which the horns of the Bulls are painted, where bright paint was used in small quantity.
He also observed that the Bulls put their horns in the mud, so the quality of paint must be long-lasting. He found this exceptional opportunity and put his step into it. To grab this opportunity, he launched small boxes of bright paints. He used to analyze the small things and find the demands, and then he ultimately used to launch the products. As soon as the demands for Asian Paints got increased, the distributors of other cities went to take the distributorship of Asian Paints who were initially not willing to take the same.
The founder came up with Washable Distemper, which gained great success in the market. With this success, Asian Paints became a famous paint company in India in 1967. To increase the network and business, the company started hiring talented candidates from the colleges. This decision of promoters proved to be beneficial for the future. The company focused on technology since beginning.
The highly revered brand mascot, Gattu was the creativity of the legendary RK Laxman and helped the brand Asian Paints for many years. It was launched in 1954, which was a mischievous boy with a paint bucket in his hand. It found its fan base in the middle-class population of India.
During those times, when the paints were not getting advertised as industrial products, Asian Paints used to reach every house with the Gattu with his shock of black hair eternally dangling over his right eye became popular and became consumer-friendly and the company sales increased.
