time.
Consumption of urea is seasonal thereby rendering transportation, storage and
distribution is very important.
distribution channel process:-
WEAKNESS:-
As per by law of the company it can fallows the co-operative channel only for sale of its
product. In case demand fall short in the channel company end up with higher stock
inventory.
Price of the product cannot be raised and government pay the subsidies as per its
calculation of fertilizers cost.
OPPORTUNITY:-
IFFCO can cut on cost by reducing energy consumption for per MT of UREA, thereby
enhancing its profitability.
IFFCO can also reduce its fixed cost per MT of UREA by enhancing its production capacity &
thereby increase in production and profitability.
IFFCO has also entered into a long term of take and supply agreement with
international holdings of AUSTRALIA forsupplying phosphate toinsure raw material
supply NPK/DAP
fertilizers plants.
THREATS:-
NG supply in the country is not sufficient to meet present country requirement. However
NG in liquid form is imported from various gulf countries and rigidified at petro net in
Gujrat to meet demand of fertilizers units.
If supplies of NG suffer due to an region. It will be reflected in production of IFFCO.
Supply of Rock phosphate is also a threat to the production NPK/DAP. It rate are not stable
in the international market.
