The perfect example of this in recent times is the latest range of 3 Minute Breakfast. This range is a result of reams of studies and observation, wherein it clearly showed the importance of eating breakfast. However, hectic lifestyles and increasing time-poverty have led to an increasing trend of youth skipping this meal altogether. Yet, if the time dimension and cooking-knowledge are taken out of the equation, the Indian consumer is sure to choose an Indian breakfast to a western one.  With the 3 Minute range, MTR has made it convenient for the millennial to quickly consume hot, delicious Indian breakfast in a convenient and quick pour-and-eat formulation, very similar to breakfast cereal! This is now a norm at MTR – launching insightful products that solve for a latent need in a quick, convenient format.
