1. STRATEGIC VISION:
Several years ago, the shampoo market was mainly dominated by two giants
Unilever and P&G, along with some other brands such as Double Rich,
Enchanteur, Palmolive, etc. All of them mainly focused on female
customers, except Romano of Unza Ltd monopolizing Men’s shampoo
segment. However, Romano had not taken advantage of its strength and was
only considered as a side- brand next to Enchanteur. Budget and support for
Romano from the parent company did not match the potentials of this brand.
Therefore, Men’s shampoo market was so open.
At that time, X-men was born. This is a strategic vision of X-men. They not
only avoided competing directly with many giants in Women’s shampoo
battle field but also open their own potential market with one main rival,
Romano which is not considered as the important brand by Unza Ltd.

It can help X-men strengthen its image in consumers’ mind. The creative
X-mission has made fantastic impression in the consumers’ mind despite
limited marketing budget.
Mr. Phan Quoc Cong (CEO of ICPVN) often appears on TV, media
network to talk about X- men and ICP with their intelligent vision, this
is a way to make X- men brand name more and more popular.
Especially, in the recent time, the fact Mr. Cong having lunch with
Philip Kotler ( father of modern marketing) help enhance brand value.
With the entrance of many giants not only in shampoo market but also
in others ( shaving cream, cleansing foam…), X- men are facing more
and more challenge than it used to.
After a long time, Romano are now coming back with well- invested
plan to take dominating place in men’s shampoo market.
And other cosmetic brand name are planning to enter the market of
cosmetics for men (Biore, Gillette, Nivea, Rexona, Fa, Club…)
2. High pressure on X-men: Besides X- men, ICP also have other brands
however they are not as successful as X- men, that’s the reason why
ICP focus so much on X- men, and we all know the advantages and
Disadvantages of Product specialization.
We all know “X- men” is the name of the famous comics and films
produced by Marvel, one of the biggest comic publishers in U.S.
Some year ago, Marvel request X- men to pay fee for using name “X-
men”. According to intellectual property law, X- men have to pay fee,
but VNese court decide X- men can use this name for free. How about
other countries? Especially EU and US, where intellectual property
law is highly respected. How can X- men solve this problem if they
want to enter the big market like EU and US?
