    CHAPTER 1: COMPANY PROFILE

    History of the company In 1929 a small company by the name of Parle products

    emerged in British dominated India. The intent was to spread

    joy and cheer to children and adults alike, all over the country

    with its sweets and candies.

    The company knew that it wouldnt be an easy task, but they

    decided to take the brave step. A small factory was set up inthe suburbs of Mumbai, to manufacture sweets and toffees. A

    decade later it was upgraded to manufacture biscuits as well.

    Since then, the Parle name has grown in all directions, won

    international fame and has been sweetening people's lives all

    over India and abroad.

    Apart from the factories in Mumbai and Bangalore Parle alsohave factories in Bahadurgarh in Haryana and Neemrana in

    Rajasthan, which are the largest biscuit and confectionery

    plants in the country. Additionally, Parle Products also has 7

    manufacturing units and 51 manufacturing units on contract.

    SWOT Analysis of productStrength

    The main strength of the company is its brand name which is

    PARLE. The company has also vast experience in the field of

    advertising, mass promotion and marketing.

    The basic principal during this organization is to create avenues for

    business unique manner possible to derive maximum benefit from

    each rupee spend on such promotion derives.

    Parle has a wide spread network and to completely cover such

    network, it has a predetermined channel which covers every nook

    and corner of the city so that all masses are covered.

    With distribution network and an equal capacity to canalize makes

    Sony strong in its own.

    international standards in exhibiting the goods. In Ahmadabad

    organized during the pre-festival days for New Year.

    The exhibition provides to P.P.L products show cash for their goods

    to rich the most potential to P.P.L.

    Weakness

    One of the finest weaknesses of the Parle is its less brand

    ambassadors in marketing field.

    As the three partners are huge corporate, the flow of decisions,

    actions and understanding are channelized through a long route. This

    may cause delay in any decision to be taken and which might not be

    good for the company.

    THREATS

    Day in day out there is various rules and regulations that are coming

    in the market and which on highly volatile in nature.

    jiffy, and in such a situation to hold an upright place is difficult in its

    Usage instruction: A juicy goli best enjoyed hmmmmmm..

    slowly.

    The glider got copied and became a jet plane. Western hits

    got copied and became Anu Malik songs. The typewriter got

    copied and became a keyboard. Similarly, we have managed

    to copy the tangy flavour of raw mangoes in a candy which

    is a little sour, a little sweet and certainly a little

    mischievous. We call it Kaccha Mango Bite. It truly is a

    kacche aam ka copy.

    Give the orange to a friend and the mango to a stranger.

    Or try the lemon for a neighbour and the strawberry for a

    teacher. Give the black currant to the school bus driver

    and the pineapple to anyone else you please. With so

    many flavours in each pack of Poppins, you will have only

    one thing to say to everyone you meet; "Doon Kya".

    Branding

    Branding is very important part of production consumers view a brand

    as an important part of a production and branding and value to a

    product

    Thus, branding distinguish the one product from another product and

    also help in avoiding the duplication of the product in the market.

    Branding has been created by advertisement, sales promotions and

    public relation techniques.

    27

    Brand name strategy

    A BRAND is a name, term, sign, symbol or design or a combination

    of them intended to identify the goods or services of one seller or a

    group of seller and to differentiate from those of the competitors,

    brand is also a promise of seller to deliver specific benefits and

    services.

    In other words a brand is sellers promise to deliver consistency as a

    specific set of features benefits and service to buyers. The best brandconveys the warranty of quality.

    Most of the big companies are having their privates brands. Private

    brands are often hard to establish and due costly to stock and

    primate, private labels yields higher profit margins for the middle man,

    they also give middle man exclusive product that cannot be bought

    them competitors, result in greater store traffic and loyalty.

    CHAPTER NO.3

    SEGMENTATION,TARGETINGAND POSITIONING

    SegmentationMarket segmentation is dividing market into distinct groups

    of buyers. These distinct groups of buyers have different

    needs, characteristics or behaviors that require separate

    products or services.

    Some level of market segmentations are as

    follows:

    Mass

    Segment

    Niche

    Micro

    Local

    Individual

    29

  • 7/29/2019 Lao More Biscuits

    30/49

    Bases of Segmentation1. Geographical Segmentation

    2. Demographical Segmentation

    3. Psychographic Segmentation

    4. Behaviorist Segmentation

    We can segment business market with some of the same variables

    we use in consumer market, such as geographic benefit sought and

    usage rate, but business marketers also use other variable.

    The demographic variables are the most Important followed by the

    operating variable down to the personal characteristics of the buyer.

    Parle mainly segment the market according to geographical area.

    Parle mostly spread at every where in India and also export in

    abroad.

    Positioning Positioning is the act of designing offer and image so the target

    market understand and appreciates.

    The product can enjoy a strong position in the market when it feels

    the consumer needs therefore. The companys positioning must be

    30

  • 7/29/2019 Lao More Biscuits

    31/49

    routed in an understanding of how the largest market defines value

    and makes choice amongst vendors.

    The P.P.L holds a better and strong market share in the market of

    ice-cream vadilal ice-creams stands at the top position of market with

    its image in P.P.L is accepted in all over India.

    Positioning of Parle With products designed keeping both health and taste in mind, Parle

    appeals to both health conscious mothers and fun loving kids. The

    great tradition of taste and nutrition is consistent in every pack on the

    store shelves, even today.

    The value-for-money positioning allows people from all classes and

    age groups to enjoy Parle products to the fullest.

    CHAPTER4: PRICE

    Pricing is the one element of the marketing mix that

    produces revenue; the other elements produce costs. Prices

    are perhaps the easiest element of the marketing program to

    adjust; product features channels and even promotion takes

    more time. Price also communicates to the market the

    companys intended value positioning of its product or brand.

    Factors considered while setting prices Selecting the pricing objective.

    Determining Demand

    Estimating costs

    Analyzing competitors costs, prices and offers.

    Selecting a pricing method

    Selecting a final price.

    32

  • 7/29/2019 Lao More Biscuits

    33/49

    Methods of Pricing

    The price ,the company charges will be somewhere between one

    that is too law to produce a profit and one that is to high to produce

    any demand product costs set a floor to the price.

    Consumer perception of products value set by the ceiling. The

    company must consider competitors price and other external and

    internal factor to find the best price between this two extrems.

    Companies set prices by selecting general pricing approach that

    include one or more of three sets of factors such as: The cost- based

    approach like cost- based approach like cost-plus pricing ,break even

    analysis and target profit planning

    The buyer- based approach like perceived- value pricing:

    The competition based approach like going-rate & sealed-

    bid pricing.

    The prices flexed by the P.P.L are in such manner that they include

    cost or production, adding relatively services & profit margin and also

    the price are affordable by all classes of people.
