Commenting on the development, Shivam Puri, Chief Executive Officer of CHL said, "With this strategic acquisition, we will be expanding our portfolio into a new category of weight gain, thereby catering to a very specific nutritional need for a set of our consumers. Being underweight is linked to multiple challenges such as poor stamina, poor concentration and low immunity. The addition of Endura & Endura mass to our portfolio hence perfectly complements our existing offerings across all key OTC/Wellness categories and would hence help us offer an even more comprehensive solution to all key consumer needs"
"CHL through this acquisition, is well positioned to further build and develop the nutrition supplement category owing to its strong existing offline and online distribution muscle & a deep consumer in sighting engine which has already helped create over 12 strong brands within the portfolio," the release stated.
