ZIL Limited has always been a socially responsible company. During the ;peak Covid-19 period, the company, through alliances with different NGOs and Government bodies, donated soap to promote cleanliness among the most vulnerable segments of Pakistani society. The company utilized its marketing platforms to create awareness of Covid prevention through promotion of hand-washing and good hygiene practices. Special supplements carried articles aimed at creating awareness on prevention techniques and routines to be adapted during the pandemic.
The effort was strengthened by issuing public service messages from Capri which highlighted the need to adopt preventive measures as a daily habit. Bloggers and FB group influencers were selected and recruited to spread the message of cleanliness and hygiene during the Covid period. An informative video was released to address the myth and misconceptions about soaps, specifically the types of soaps.
The company took extra care of its employees and set up a Covid-19 Emergency Fund to facilitate diagnosis and treatment. The organization operated remotely by introducing a work from home discipline. Those who tested positive to the virus were given an additional fortnight’s quarantine leave. Employees were facilitated and encouraged to get vaccinated. ZIL can now proudly state that its staff is 100% vaccinated.
ZIL Limited ensures that consumers are rewarded for their loyalty with every purchase. This philosophy is the guiding light encouraging every team member to continuously reach out and engage consumers, monitor market dynamics and changing lifestyle habits, enrich knowledge of category growth and utilize our expertise to pour it back into the brand experience that encourages consumers across Pakistan to trust the company.
ZIL is wholly committed to meeting the emerging needs of consumers by providing quality products at affordable prices backed by cost optimization, diversification and collaboration.
