The Marketing Plan

The success of any company’s products is based on developing an effective marketing plan with real implementation possibilities. The objective is to achieve the ultimate goal of satisfying consumer demand. Many of Lekiu Distributors Ltd.’s products are market leaders that subscribe to our proven process and operate within our marketing arena.

Lekiu Distributors Ltd. actively works with principals and suppliers in their market and collaborate in product development. We strongly feel it is not enough to just sell a product but to continually reinforce it with concerted marketing and promotion efforts by both Lekiu Distributors Ltd. and our suppliers.

Advertising and Promotion

We collaborate with our suppliers and partners with advertising and promotional activities throughout the entire selling cycle. Our category brand managers have decades of experience to assist in the process.
