Inclusion @ Godrej: Women in Sales

Godrej Consumer Products Limited has been actively thinking through and disrupting the challenges women employees experience in the sales sector. Read how GCPL has been making the sector affirming for women to build their careers.

Like manufacturing, sales is a crucial domain for GCPL. A common barrier encountered by women officers during fieldwork is the difficulty in accessing hygienic washrooms –– a common story across India. 

To address this issue, we partnered with Woloo, a platform that ensures access to clean and safe washrooms. We rolled out Woloo subscriptions to approximately 70 women in the field across India, making it possible for them to locate and access hygienic washrooms with ease. 

Our efforts are also ongoing to make washrooms at distributor locations more accessible for women sales officers.

Film: Women in Sales

Our film, “Breaking Barriers: The Rise of Women in Sales,” takes a close look at the doubts, challenges, and long-standing biases that women face in field sales roles, told through the stories of our colleagues at GCPL. This isn’t just a story of struggle. It’s also a story of relentless growth and quiet victories — whether it’s in travel to new towns or in building relationships in a crucial market. See how change can, and does, happen — one day at a time. Watch the film here: “Breaking Barriers: The Rise of Women in Sales”
