Marketing / hair care

Company's marketing strategy.
The "univers" refers to the different marketing domains, I assume.

To develop / enhance our four product ranges.
Explanation:
Not as poetic, but I think an anglophone would raise his/her eyebrows at the notion of four universes. I think this refers to the various product ranges that apply to various markets and sectors of activity. However, if it is a company like Vivendi Universal with different unrelated sectors (Entertainment, Water treatment...) this suggestion may not sufficiently separate the various poles of activity.
