Amul is an Indian dairy cooperative, based at Anand in the state of Gujarat,


India. Formed in 1948, it is a brand managed by a cooperative body, the
Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd. (GCMMF), which today is
jointly owned by 3.6 million milk producers in Gujarat. Amul is actually the
abbreviated form of Anand Milk Union Limited. The white revolution was
spearheaded by Tribhuvandas Patel under the guidance of Sardar Patel and
VargheseKurian. As a result, Kaira District Milk Union Limited was born in 1946.
Tribhuvan das became the founding chairman of the organization which he led
till his last day of his life. He hired Dr. Kurien three years after the white
revolution. He convinced Dr. Kurien to stay and help with the mission. Amul
spurred India's White Revolution, which made the country the world's largest
producer of milk and milk products. In the process Amul became the largest
food brand in India and has ventured into markets overseas.Dr Varghese
Kurien, founder-chairman of the GCMMF for more than 30 years (1973–2006),
is credited with the success of Amul. Amul products are now available in more
than 60 countries in the world.

Cadbury’s started as a one man business, opened in 1984 by a Quaker, John


Cadbury, which becomes nowadays Cadbury Limited, and now becomes the
world’s largest chocolate producers. In 1831 the business had changed into
grocery shop and John Cadbury became the manufacturer of the company.

Cadbury Dairy Milk is a worldwide brand of chocolate of United Kingdom


Which made its different types of products and promote in different countries
like Pakistan, India, Italy, Canada, and France almost all countries.
The Indian Chocolate Industry has come a long way since long years. Ever since
1947 the Cadbury is in India, Cadbury chocolates have ruled the hearts of
Indians with their fabulous taste.
Indian Chocolate Industry’s Cadbury Company today employs nearly 2000
people across India. The company is one of the oldest and strongest players in
the Indian confectionary industry with an estimated 68% value share and 62%
volume share of the total chocolate market. It has exhibited continuously
strong revenue growth of 34% and net profit growth of 24% throughout the
1990s.
The brand of Cadbury is known for its exceptional capabilities in product
innovation, distribution and marketing. With brands like Dairy Milk, Gems, 5
Star, Bournvita, Perk, Celebrations, Bytes, Chocki, Delite and Temptations, there
is a Cadbury offering to suit all occasions and moods.
The company reaches millions of loyal customers through a distribution
network of 5.5 lakhs outlets across the country and this number is increasing
every day.
In 1946 the Cadbury’s manufacturing operations started in Mumbai, which
was subsequently transferred.
10

In 1964, Induri Farm at Talegaon, near Pune was set up with a view to promote
Page

modern methods as well as improve milk yield.


In 1981-82, a new chocolate manufacturing unit was set up in the same
location in Talegaon.
The company, way back in 1964, pioneered cocoa farming in India to reduce
dependence on imported cocoa beans. The parent company provided cocoa
seeds and clonal materials free of cost for the first 8 years of operations.

Amul chocolates”: A survey of Surat city

Cocoa farming is done in Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu. In 1977, the
company also took steps to promote higher production of milk by setting up a
subsidiary Induri Farms Ltd., near Pune.
In 1989, the company set up a new plant at Malanpur, MP, to derive benefits
available to the backward area.
In 1995, Cadbury expanded Malanpur plant in a major way. The Malanpur
plant has modernized facilities for Gems, Éclairs, and Perk etc.

Nestle: -
1866-1905
In the 1860s Henri Nestlé, a pharmacist, developed a food for babies who were
unable to breastfeed. His first success was a premature infant who could not
tolerate his mother's milk or any of the usual substitutes. People quickly
recognized the value of the new product, after Nestlé's new formula saved the
child's life, and soon, Farine Lactée Henri Nestlé was being sold in much of
Europe.
1905-1918
In 1905 Nestlé merged with the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company. By the
early 1900s, the company was operating factories in the United States, Britain,
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.
1918-1938
After the war Government contracts dried up and consumers switched back to
11

fresh milk. However, Nestlé's management responded quickly, streamlining


operations and reducing debt. The 1920s saw Nestlé's first expansion into new
Page

products, with chocolate the Company's second most important activity


1938-1944
Nestlé felt the effects of World War II immediately. Profits dropped from $20
million in 1938 to $6 million in 1939. Factories were established in developing
countries, particularly Latin America. Ironically, the war helped with the
introduction of the Company's newest product, Nescafé, which was a staple
drink of the US military. Nestlé's production and sales rose in the wartime
Shree s. v. Patel collage of computer science and business
management
“To study of comparison between Cadbury, nestle and
Amul chocolates”: A survey of Surat city

economy.
1944-1975
The end of World War II was the beginning of a dynamic phase for Nestlé.
Growth accelerated and companies were acquired. In 1947 came the merger
with Maggi seasonings and soups. Crosse & Blackwell followed in 1960, as did
Findus (1963), Libby's (1971) and Stouffer's (1973). Diversification came with a
shareholding in L’Oreal in 1974.
1975-1981
Nestlé's growth in the developing world partially offset a slowdown in the
Company's traditional markets. Nestlé made its second venture outside the
food industry by acquiring Alcon Laboratories Inc...
1981-1995
Nestlé divested a number of businesses1980 / 1984. In 1984, Nestlé's improved
bottom line allowed the Company to launch a new round of acquisitions, the
most important being American food giant Carnation.
1996-2002
The first half of the 1990s proved to be favourable for Nestlé: trade barriers
crumbled and world markets developed into more or less integrated trading
areas. Since 1996 there have been acquisitions including San Pellegrino (1997),
Spillers Pet foods (1998) and Ralston Purina (2002). There were two major
acquisitions in North America, both in 2002: in July, Nestlé merged its U.S. ice
cream business into Dreyer's, and in August, a USD 2.6bn acquisition was
announced of Chef America, Inc.
2003 +
The year 2003 started well with the acquisition of Mövenpick Ice Cream,
enhancing Nestlé's position as one of the world market leaders in this product
category. In 2006, Jenny Craig and Uncle Toby's were added to the Nestlé
portfolio and 2007 saw Novartis Medical Nutrition, Gerber and Henniez join the
12

Company.

Introduction: -
Marketing is the focus point of all business activities because the
objectives of all business enterprise are to satisfy the need and want of the
customers. Production and purchase has no meaning unless a firm is able to
market the goods and services. Nothing happens unless somebody sells
something. Marketing is the distinguishing features of business. A business is
essential part from all other human organization by the fact that it markets the
product or services. Marketing is the basic operative function of all business
firms. It serves on the basis of business planning and generates revenue for the
firm. Efficient marketing management is essential for the survival and growth of
every enterprise.

“Marketing is a system of integrated business activities designed to


develop marketing plans and programs leading to the satisfaction of customer
wants.”
-PETER F. DRUCKUR

Marketing mix: -

Product: -
Product mix is the list of all product offered for sale by a company. It is
defined as “the composite of product offered for sale by a firm or a business
unit.”
The product mix of a company has three characteristics;
1. Depth
2. Width
3. Length

Depth depends on the number of productions items with in each


product line.
Width depends on the number of products group of products line
with in the company.
Length refers to the total no of the company.

Price: -
Price is an important element in marketing mix. Arrival at the right
selling price is essential in a sound marketing mix. Pricing policy provides
guidelines to the marketing manager to evaluate appropriate pricing decisions.
21

Pricing decision has strategic importance in any enterprise. It means


Page

decision of determining price of a product. Price can be defined as the


exchange value of the goods or services in the terms of money. The price of
products should be determined in such a matter so as to offer a reasonable
amount of profit to the manufacturer, a reasonable remuneration on middle
man and the maximum satisfaction to the consumers.

The prime focus of Cadbury and nestle is middle class people; so the
prices of its products are kept so economical that it can be purchased by them
at any interval of time without creating any burden.

Place: -
Place mix is also known as distribution mix. This stands for the various
activities the company undertakes to make the producer easily available to the
customer. In economy the producer’s customers are separated by vast
distances. Place mix is nothing but marketing activities in which movements or
flows of goods or services are there from primary producer to ultimate
consumer. It includes distribution channel;

Distribution channel: -
Channel of distribution generally depend upon the nature of product,
volume of sales and trade practices adopted. The set of marketing institutions
participating in the marketing activities which involves the movement of all
goods and services from the primary producer to the ultimate user or
consumer is called the distribution channel. In modern era, with the increase in
size and production of the unit, it is very difficult to sell the products directly to
the consumer so they have to adopt, distribution channel with middlemen like
wholesalers, distributors, retailers, etc.

Promotion: -
22Page

The marketing mix activities or product and distribution are performed


mainly with in business or between a business and the member of its
distribution channel. However, through its promotional activities, a firm
communicates directly with potential customers and as well as we see, it is not
a simple process.

Marketing research mix:-


Introduction: -
It was designed as a frame work to assist researchers to designed or
evaluate marketing research studies. The name was deliberately chosen to be
similar to the marketing mix. It has also 4 P’s. Unlike the marketing mix, these
elements are sequential and they match the main phases that need to be
followed.

1. Purpose: -
The purpose of research is the reason why it is being done? The
word ‘purpose’ is useful because it has a wide coverage. It also
embraces studies to gather marketing intelligence, where the
manager’s role is to scan the environment for useful data, and
there may be no specific objective.

2. Population: -
When considering any market sector, we need to ask
 “Who is involved in this market place?”
 “Who are the players?”
 “Who should be the centre of the investigation?”

This area considers the target audiences, customers, the users or


non-users.

3. Procedure: -
When considering the procedure, the key question is:
 How should the study be conducted?
 Will it be qualitative or quantitative?
 When will the field work take place?
Then best research starts by looking at secondary data.
Information technology, with the help of internet has improved
our ability to find such data. It secondary data does not solve the
problem then primary data is sought.
26Page

4. Publication: -
Under the heading ‘publication’ the key question are:
 Who is the audience for their result?
 What should be communicated?
 When and how should they be communicated?

Shree s. v. Patel collage of computer science and business


management
“To study of comparison between Cadbury, nestle and
Amul chocolates”: A survey of Surat city

Research is of no use if findings are kept within the research team.


Choice need to be met on how publication will take place? Will
tabulation be provided? Or will a personal presentation take
place?
There are many different readers of research reports and these
audiences all have different reports must be personalized, in
written form and presentation style must be customized and
adapted to the users.

“To study of comparison between Cadbury, nestle and
Amul chocolates”: A survey of Surat city

This research shows that in Surat city, majority of the people are aware
about Cadbury, nestle and Amul but numbers of people doesn’t prefer Amul
chocolates in Surat city.
Result indicated that five dimensions were significant: tangible,
reliability, responsiveness, recovery, assurance and empathy. Quality of
chocolate main determinants of the consumer satisfaction.

Market target plane: -


The company should test the product before it goes national (23 Metros with
million+ population). This is so because;
1. It would reduce the risk of failure in the market where it goes national,
by validating the marketing mix.
2. Facilitate validation of positioning.
3. Allow correction action through incorporation of consumer feedback.

For test marketing the chocolates, the plan may be as follows:


1. Test objectives: - to validate the brand name, new outlets, etc. and to
measure the sales volume, pricing and promotion policy. Competitor
reaction can also be analysed.
2. The product may be launched in Bombay (as a soft (test) launch). This
selection was based on:

 Bombay is uniformly represented by the target segment.


 Competitor activity is high. Bombay is representative of the target
50

segment.
Page

Implementation: -
A well designed marketing plan count for nothing, if not implemented properly.
Success in the market place depends upon the way the plan is implemented.

The launch is recommended to be before winters-say September or October,


since-
 That period would facilitate high Diwali sales, and
 During winter there would not be much need for refrigeration. Hence
company would get valuable time it’s infra in place.

The success of the brand would largely depend on the following;


 Sales distribution network
 Quality standard
 Research and development- continuous innovative products
 Technology support 51Page

Conclusion

The growth and expansion of the Indian chocolate market in the


past has been hampered, due to stiff excise duties on chocolates (at 18
percent – while other agro based products are being charged as low as
8% and a few, even 0% excise) and non- availability of quality cocoa in
52

the country.
Page

Also, import of chocolates has been put in the OGL category, with
duties being reduced (in phased manner). The industry has made
recommendations to the Indian government to go back to the special
item list category, in order to safeguard the domestic industry.

However, continuous marketing focus by the players in the market


has resulted in the industry looking up like never before. These
companies /brands have become much more market savvy. The Indian
chocolate market is transforming and new players (Sara lee is planning to
set up base in India) are entering the market. Hence, considering the low
per capita consumption of chocolates, the future of the industry seems
too upbeat.

Suggestion

Chocolates product at Mumbai city is available in comparison to previous


years, but still there is requirement of development in chocolate products. Due
to increasing overall cost in chocolate products everywhere, cost format should
be made as such that it is affordable to each and everyone in the society. In this
we also found that if the demanded brand is not available, so at that time the
customers switch over the brand of the chocolate so, here the company should
build up the healthy distribution channel by which company can attract the
customers and company loose the fear from the market. Company should
54

concentrate more on television for advertisement, as mostly people get attract


though television only. For promotional offers, company should go for free gifts
Page

rather than going for other way.
