WAKING THE SLEEPING GIANT
The shampoo is already gaining in share. The new, faster Unilever blasted it out to seven new markets in just six months last year, racking up sales of $367 million. In the Philippines, long considered P&G territory, Head & Shoulders was unchallenged in the antidandruff category until Clear launched in July, 2007. Five months later, Unilever's shampoo had overtaken Head & Shoulders to grab 15.6% of the market.
