TRANSCRIPT
1 History of the Nestle
Nestlé headquarters in Vevey.
The company dates to 1867, when two separate Swiss enterprises were founded that would
later form the core of Nestlé. In August of that year, Charles A. and George Page, brothers
from Lee County, IL in the United States, established the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk
Company in Cham. In September, in Vevey, Henri Nestlé developed a milk-based baby
food and soon began marketing it. In the succeeding decades both enterprises aggressively
expanded their businesses throughout Europe and the United States. (Henri Nestlé retired
in 1875, but the company, under new ownership, retained his name as Farine Lactée Henri
Nestlé.) In 1877 Anglo-Swiss added milk-based baby foods to its products, and in the
following year the Nestlé company added condensed milk, so that the firms became direct
and fierce rivals.
Henri Nestlé.
In 1905, however, the companies merged to become the Nestlé and Anglo-Swiss
Condensed Milk Company, retaining that name until 1947, when the name Nestlé
Alimentana SA was taken as a result of the acquisition of Fabrique de Produits Maggi SA
(founded 1884) and its holding company, Alimentana SA of Kempttal, Switzerland.
Maggi was a major manufacturer of soup mixes and related foodstuffs. The company’s
current name was adopted in 1977. By the early 1900s, the company was operating
factories in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany and Spain. World War I created
new demand for dairy products in the form of government contracts; by the end of the war,
Nestlé's production had more than doubled.
After the war, government contracts dried up and consumers switched back to fresh milk.
However, Nestlé's management responded quickly, streamlining operations and reducing
debt. The 1920s saw Nestlé's first expansion into new products, with chocolate the
company's second most important activity.

2.2 Scope of Trade (National/International)
Pakistan is an agricultural country. According to Ministry of Food, Agriculture and
livestock, agriculture accounts for 20.9 percent of the GDP. Dairy industry contributes
49% to the agriculture value and 11% to the GDP. Annual production of milk is 35.25
Billion liters in the country; But the Processed milk is only 4% of the total production.
Like other countries Dairy is not a dedicated profession of the people, farmers is
associated with dairy and agriculture at the same time, Profitability for the farmers is very
less. Infrastructure is not developed, cooling tanks and other facilities are not available,
and the large part of milk production is wasted. There is a multi-hierarchal distribution
system of the milk; the farmers are not getting reward of their work. All these factors are
making this industry unattractive for the farmers and the industry is no developing up to
mark.
Only 4% of the total milk production is processed and used in urban areas of the country.
Nestle Milkpak have a great share in the different multinational companies. It is
statistically calculated that Nestle Milkpak have 50% share in the Nestle company and
now Nestle become the leader of all multinational companies in food products and
beverages. Nestle is operating in all big cities in Pakistan and try best to provide its
Products to other small cities and towns.
According to Pakistan Dairy Development Authority

Brand Ambassadors of Organization/Products
June 18, 2008 (Sawf News) - Nestle has dropped Bollywood star Rani Mukerji as brand
ambassador for its chocolate brand, Nestle Munch, because she has ceased to be a youth
icon.
Page 11 of 25
Rani had endorsed the product for the last four years, and featured in many Television
commercials promoting the brand.
A few months earlier, Rani was dropped from Fanta commercials, and replaced by rising
South star Asin, Aamir Khan's Ghajini co-star.
A top PR official of Nestle India, based in Gurgaon, talked to us on condition of
anonymity.
"Our contract with Rani Mukherjee was due to get over and we were in the midst of
planning new marketing strategies for our brand. It is then that we decided that we won't
be renewing our contract with her," the official told us. "Our new strategies include
targeting the youth and Rani ceases to be any kind of a youth icon anymore. Her films
haven't really worked out at the box office and we are looking out for someone who is
very popular in this category. We are working out on a few options and a final
announcement shall be made very soon."
A source close to Rani confirmed the development, telling us, "Rani is extremely
disappointed by Nestle's unprofessionalism. They knew well that once the contract came
up for renewal, Rani would increase her price. They wanted to go in for someone cheaper
perhaps. They should be thankful that Rani has got their product noticed in last four
years."
Nestle's action seems to reflect the film industry's perception that Rani is no more the box
office draw that she once was.
Rani's stock in the industry has dropped following the poor box office response to her
recent films like Saawariya (2007), Laaga Chunari Mein Daag (2007), Ta Ra Rum Pum
(2007), and Babul (2006). She is also perceived to be too closely aligned to the Yash Raj
Films banner by other filmmakers.
Even her 'friends' in the industry are not ready to bet on her anymore.
When Kajol vacillated over signing up for My Name is Khan, the film's producer and
director, Karan Johar, a close friend of Rani, surprised industry watchers by announcing
that he would go with Kareena instead, even though Rani comes through as a more natural
Kajol replacement.

Market segmentation and target strategy including consumer profiling
It is really a big market and it is always difficult to segment the big market. There are
many uses for segmentation.
Needs Based Segmentation

ranging from 0.25 liters to 1.5 liter. Buyers can buy according to there need between these
quantities.
Page 15 of 25
Product Segmentation

tastes and wealth.
6.1 Integrated Marketing Communication (IMC)
Company have a complete imc plan in which they that how can the
company will inform their consumer about the new, upcoming product and value added
services to the existing product. The sources which can use by the company to inform
their consumers are print, electronic as well as through their websites.
As a mother you want the best for your child and almost always *worry about his/her
health. But are you completely sure if your child is getting sufficient nutrition for his or
her good health and development?
Many of you may not be so sure. Children between 1 to 3 years of age experience rapid
growth and strong height and weight gains making their nutritional requirements unique.
That's why we have NESTLÉ NESLA, growing-up milk for children 1-3 years of age.
NESTLÉ NESLAC provides the right vitamins and minerals in the right proportions that
your little one needs at this particular age.

Protein, Iron, Calcium and Multivitamins to help give your child a strong and healthy
foundation for life!

Milkpak will position our product against the competitors and gain competitive advantage
through our efficient promotional methods, using innovations, and by reaching closer to
our target market through the arrangement of events like BASANT, VALENTINE DAY
Page 16 of 25
and etc. In short consumers will view us as a product providing highly quality, in terms of
taste, customer focused and, at the same time reasonably priced as compared to others.
6.2 Market ShareNestle steps up efforts to grow market share
THE difficult operating conditions across the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG)
industry have affected sales performance of some products of Nestle India last fiscal.
Though the company says that it has maintained its market share in most of the product
categories by taking a few measures, including managing input costs and price points,
improving distribution network as well as market penetration and making more effective
use of its supply chain, sales of some key products remained below expectations in 2004.
Take for example liquid UHT (long shelf-life) milk. The Nestle India Chairman, Mr
Martial G. Rolland, said in the latest annual report that the market performance of this
product has been below expectations and a full review is being undertaken. And even as
Maggi noodles continue to have the highest sales volume in India, among all Nestle
companies, Maggi sauces have performed below expectations during 2004 due to
aggressive competition, he added.
Milkmaid Sweetened Condensed Milk did not perform as per plan, and Mr Rolland said
the company is taking corrective action to improve the performance of Milkmaid Squeezy.
Similarly, in confectionery, Nestle Chocostick is being reviewed, even as the company
said products such as Nestle Milkybar Eclairs, Nestle Eclairs and Polo lozenges have
performed well.
In the recent past, Nestle has been reviewing the performance of Milo Chocolate Energy
Food Drink and it launched Milo with `Badam Shakti' in select cities of Tamil Nadu
during last fiscal. The Chairman said performance of the new variant is being monitored.
Among the products that continue to perform well from the Nestle stable are Nestle
Munch and Nestle Kitkat chocolates, Nescafe instant coffee and Everyday Dairy
Whitener.

products industry and one of the few firms around the globe with a AAA credit rating.

willingness to embrace change and the discipline to meet financial standards.
7.1 Methods for Raising Funds
Ambika Cotton to issue pref shares to UTI venture fund
A VENTURE fund promoted by UTI Asset Management Company has forayed into
textiles account by choosing to invest in the Coimbatore-based Ambika Cotton Mills Ltd
(ACM), a known name in the premium segment cotton yarn production and exports.
ACM's board of directors early this week decided to issue 8.75 lakh shares to UTI
Investment Advisory Services Ltd, trustees of the UTI's venture fund `Ascent India Fund',
through preferential issue route. Ambika Cotton will give the preference shares at a
premium of Rs 175 per share (of face value of Rs 10 each) and the company stands to mop
up Rs 16.18 crore from the preferential issue to buttress its capital base.
To facilitate the preferential share allotment to the UTI, the ACM's board has also decided
to raise the company's authorised capital from Rs 5 crore (50 lakh equity shares of Rs 10
each) to Rs 10 crore (one crore equity shares of Rs 10 each).
The Managing Director of the ACM, Mr P.V. Chandran, told Business Line that his
company had chosen the preferential issue route for its least cost proposition to strengthen
its capital base, which is required to meet company's expansion project. He said an extra-
ordinary general meeting of the members of the company has been called on May 14 to
seek the shareholders approval for the preferential allotment.
These investments would also result in enhancing the company's turnover from the present
Rs 86 crore to Rs 160 crore on completion of the projects. Ambika Cotton is eyeing
Europe and the US as emerging markets for its yarn exports.
As per the present shareholding pattern of ACM, of the 50 lakh equity shares, the
promoters and their close relatives/associates hold 34.51 lakh shares.

9. SWOT Analysis
One opportunity that Nestle has is that health-based products are becoming more popular
in the world, including in the United States. Consumers are becoming more health
conscious, and realize that living longer isn’t only by luck and genetics. LC1 has not been
introduced in the United States yet. Nestle also has an opportunity of being even a larger
market leader in Germany with LC-1. Within two years of launching the product in
Germany, they had captured 60% of the market. This was due to the fact that they
differentiated the product, and Germans simply preferred the taste. Another opportunity of
LC1 is that, because they are a market leader, they can introduce more health-based
products in Germany.
A threat to Nestle is the fact that some markets they are entering are already mature.
Danone had an established leadership position in the yogurt market in France. Since
Page 19 of 25
Danone was the first to arrive in the market, they have always been the market leader
there. Also consumers in France liked the taste of LC-1, but researchers believe they did
not repurchase the yogurt because they preferred the taste of Danone products better.
Another threat to Nestle is that there is intense competition in the United States yogurt
market. General Mills’ Yoplait division is the leader in the yogurt market in the United
States. Yoplait has been the leader for years and is constantly innovating new health
products.
General Mills has been a strong competitor of Nestle and they are not short of experience
and strength. One strength that they have is their brand recognition. One of their main
goals has been to deliver brands that consumers trust and value and they have succeeded.
Another strength they have is their distribution. Yoplait is distributed to more stores in the
United States than any other brand of yogurt. This is one of the reasons why they have
been the market leader in yogurt for so long. Another strength that General Mills has is the
fact that consumers simply know Yoplait is healthy. Yoplait is the only leading brand of
yogurt to offer vitamin D and this vitamin is especially important for adult women.
(Yoplait.com) It is not just a coincidence that Yoplait has vitamin D, but they have
purposely added this vitamin to target female consumers.
General Mills also has some weaknesses. They fact that they are the market leader in the
United States may be hindering them from innovation. They have been producing Yoplait
yogurt for many years, and have offered a series of new products in the past few years in
the nutrition department. Most of these products however, are very common, and are
widely offered in the United States. The health food industry in the United States has been
booming and General Mills does not offer enough products in the smaller niche markets.
They have not entered into many unknown areas because of their success in the yogurt
market.
An opportunity General Mills has is that its Yoplait division is so successful. Yoplait is the
only division of General Mills that is currently earning a profit. They have a large market
share over their main competitors in the yogurt market. Another opportunity that they
share with Nestle is that the health-based and nutritional food market is booming. They are
continually releasing and marketing new products in these markets and they will continue
to do so while the market continues to yield profits.
Page 20 of 25
The main threat that challenges General Mills is that there is intense competition amongst
the top players in the yogurt and related markets. Nutrition and health is becoming more
and more important to consumers in the United States, and worldwide. Along with this
comes increased competition to gain market share. Simple supply and demand theories are
prevalent in these markets. Another threat General Mills has is that smaller companies are
producing similar products with the same or added nutritional benefits.

Page 21 of 25
Weaknesses
Physically impossibility to have target market.
There is weak marketing of Milkpak as there is no advertisement of Milkpak on
official website.
Lack of awareness among the target market.
It Dependency on others (govt. & sponsors) for the arrangement of events. The
target market of Nestle Milkpak is upper middle and high class because lower middle
and poor class cannot afford to buy UHT milk due to its premium price.
It is a main weakness of milkpak that there are different companies of milk but the
name of nestle milkpak is always stand in the last because of low advertising and
marketing.
Opportunities
Increasing interest of people
31billion customers are there in Pakistan for milk. Upton now only 4 billion
customers are being facilitated.27 billion customer markets is still available to be
penetrated.
Few and weak competitors
Estimations of UHT Milk Production and Consumption up to 2008– 09
Year Annual Production
2008-09 => 648.43 353.71
2009-10 => 753.89 372.05
The projected values of UHT Milk consumption and production are obtained from
the ARIMA model.
More people are coming towards processed milk because loose milk is dangerous
for health due to a lot of contamination.
Growth of processed milk is increasing with 20% annually so Nestle Milkpak has
the opportunity to capture a large share of market.
Page 22 of 25
Threats
Major player may enter target market
Legal and ethical issues.
Market segment growth could attract new entrants.
Economic slow down can reduce demand. Two main competitors Haleeb and
Olpers are main threat for Milkpak especially the Olpers is growing very fast.
Inflation is getting higher and higher so the purchasing power of the people is
decreasing day by day.
There is no entry barrier for new entrants as the Olpers has come in the market.
Taste of consumer has already developed which is hard to change
10. Conclusion
Problems Faced By Nestle
Nestle is facing the problem that is regarding the quality of mill . it is being perceive that
infant or child belonging to poor family who use low quantity of milk then required in
daily use are getting effected.
It is hard to agree the customer to swich to pack milk because of taste which is huredel for
further expansion
Recommendations
Nestle must state in writing that it accepts that the international code and the subsequent
relevant World Health Assembly Resolutions are minimum requirements for every
country.
Nestle must state in writing that it will make required changes to bring its Baby Food
Marketing policy and practice into line with International Code and Resolutions.
