Introduction To The Company
Thirty years ago the milk producers of gujarat had come together and decided to
create their own organization to enhance the marketing capacity of the dairy co-
operative milk marketing federation limited (gcmmf ltd.). Mr. V. Kurien was
the founder of this co-operative society and this society had been formed in a
small village of Gujarat named Anand.

This category, therefore, has considerable potential to grow before it
reaches saturation point -- as have traditional FMCG products such as soaps and
detergents. Chocolates and sugar-boiled confectionery boast of even lower
penetration levels than biscuits, which reach 56 per cent of the households.
The Indian confectionery market is segmented into sugar-boiled
confectionery, chocolates, mints and chewing gums. Sugar-boiled
confectionery, consisting of hard boiled candy, toffees and other sugar-based
candies, is the largest of the segments and valued at around Rs 2,000 crore.
Cadbury India and Nestle India also made a foray into this segment five years
ago and have a small presence. Chocolates make up a 22,500-tonne market
2
which is valued at Rs 400 crore and dominated mainly by listed players
Cadbury India and Nestle India. but slipping volumes However, despite its
unmistakable potential, the major players in the confectionery industry have not
fared too well in recent times in terms of sales growth. Take the chocolate
segment. Cadbury India, which derives nearly 76 per cent of its revenues from
chocolates and sugar confectionery has seen its top line growth wind down from
19 per cent in 1999 to 12 per cent in 2000 and further to 7 per cent in the first
six months of 2001. Nestle India has managed to report healthier sales and
profit growth, but this is more on account of the contribution from milk, coffee
and culinary products rather than sugar or chocolate confectionery.
HISTORY
3
Amul birth is indelibly linked to the freedom movement in India. It was
Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel who said that if the farmers of India are to get
economic freedom then they must get out of the clutches of the ‘middlemen’.
the first Amul cooperative was the result of a farmers’ meeting in Samarkha
(Kaira district, Gujarat) on 4 January 1946, called by Morarji Desai under the
advice from Sardar Vallabhai Patel, to fight rapacious milk contractors. It was
Sardar’s vision to organize farmers, to have them gain control over production,
procurement and marketing by entrusting the task of managing these to
qualified professionals, thereby eliminating the middlemen, the bane in farmers’
prosperity.
The decision was taken that day in January 1946. Milk producers’
cooperatives in villages, federated into a district union, and should alone handle
the sale of milk from Kaira the government run Bombay Milk Scheme. This
was the origin of the Anand pattern of cooperatives. The colonial government
refused to deal with the cooperative. The farmers called a milk strike. After
fifteen days the government capitulated. This was the beginning if ‘Kaira
District Cooperative Milk Producers’ Union Ltd., Anand registered on 14
December 1946. Mr. V.Kurien was the founder of this cooperative society. this
society had been formed in a small village of Gujarat named Anand.
Originally the Anand pattern included dairy cooperative societies at the
level. Inspired by the Kaira Union, similar milk unions came up in the other
districts too. In 1973, in order to market their product more effectively and
economically, they formed the GCMMF Ltd. GCMMF become the sole
marketer of the original range of Amul products including milk powder and
4
butter. That range has since grown to include ice cream, ghee, cheese,
chocolates, shrikhand, paneer, and so on. These products have made Amul a
leading food brand in India.
The brand name AMUL, has taken from the Sanskrit Amoolya, meaning
priceless, was suggested by a quality control expert in Anand. The first products
with the Amul brand name were launched in 1955. Since then, they have been
in use in millions of home in all parts of India and beyond. Today Amul is a
symbol of many things: of high quality products sold at reasonable price,
availability, service. Amul is the brand name of two million farmers, members
of 10,000 village dairy cooperative societies throughout Gujarat. This is the
heart of Amul; it vis what is so special about the Amul saga. Amul in 1946 was
really an effort to carve out a truly Indian company that would have the
involvement of millions of Indians and place direct control in the hands of the
farmers. It was a mandate for producing, owning and marketing and above all,
building your own truly Indian Brand. Amuls’s birth was thus a harbinger of the
economic independence of our farmer brethren. Today, 173 milk producers’
cooperative unions and 22 federations play a major role in meeting the demand
for packed milk and milk products. Quality packed milk is now available is
more than 1,000 cities throughout the length and breadth of India. Amul,
therefore, is a brand with a difference. That difference manifests itself in a
larger than life purpose. The purpose – freedom to farmers by giving total
control over procurement, production and marketing.

Consumption of chocolates could have been impacted by the selling price
increases that marketers effected between 1999 and 2000. In 1999 and 2000,
selling prices of key chocolate brands were pegged up by 5-15 per cent, partly
reflecting a spike in cocoa prices in that period. This probably contributed to the
sales growth for the year.
However, with cocoa prices falling sharply in the second half of 2000,
marketers were forced to maintain selling prices of most products, holding back
value growth in sales. Cadbury India, the market leader in the chocolate
segment (market share 71.9 per cent) saw the growth in its chocolate portfolio
slow to 6 per cent in the April 2000 to April 2001 period, from nine per cent the
previous year.
This was mainly due to the healthy double digit growth rates in its
flagship brand -- Cadbury's Dairy Milk. Brands such as 5 Star and Perk
stagnated in 2000-01.
14
Though products such as Perk did succeed initially (Cadbury India claims
to have added eight million new consumers in 2000), growth in this segment
appears to be petering out. Both Perk and KitKat (thechocolate-coated wafer
which is central to Nestle's chocolate portfolio), have shown signs of stagnation
in 2001, actually reporting negative growth rates for a few of the months.
Banking on smaller editions Of late, the chocolate majors have been
rejigging their products to launch chocolates in the Rs 10 and Rs 5 price points.
Mimicking the trend in other FMCG products, the chocolate majors have been
relaunching their conventional chocolate brands in smaller unit packs, hoping
that this will prompt more frequent purchases and pep up volume growth.
The past year has seen a slew of such launches, the 18-gram version of 5
Star (retailing at Rs 5), the 15-gram version of Cadbury Dairy Milk (Rs 5), Perk
Slims (Rs 5), Cadbury Chocobix (a chocolate biscuit combination priced at Rs
5), Nestle Crunch (a mini snack at Rs 6) and Nestle Munch (Rs 5).
It is early days yet to judge if this has indeed pepped up volume growth in
the segment. However, the chocolate majors do not have much to lose. Unlike
the low unit pack versions of products such as shampoos, the low unit packs of
chocolates do not cost less on a per gram basis than their normal versions.
Any Research has it’s own importance in any business organization . The
research shows the real fact about product as well as organization. Research
is a systematic and scientific investigation of any idea either precise or
15
abstract from a continuous basis for learning , it could be either
exploratory or descriptive.
For company point of view I tried to find the serious drawback, which is
highly, affected the sale of chocolates. I tried to find market share of
Amul chocolate which is itself important .I tried to find the sale figure of
Amul chocolate in term of rupees, due to some hurdle I don’t claim my
research work is 100% accurate because so many factors was uncontrolled
16
during the project .I tried to finish my research with 100% accuracy
which is best available in market .
So it is my strong believe that my research work is significant in all manner.
This research is helpful for organization, retailers as well as consumer.
It is not a hidden fact the amul has its own image or brand which show
the value of money for its product. The AMUL’S have a great product line and
17
depth. AMUL’S products are Amul Butter, Amul Cheese Amul confectionery,
Amul Flavored Milk and Pasteurized milk, Dahi, Lashi, Ice-cream,etc.
If we give a overall look on the all market position of AMUL’S product
almost all product have a grate market share in other hand all product are
market leader with there grater sales volume and high turn over, for example
AMUL Butter, AMUL Flavored milk, AMUL Mogerella chess.
But in case of AMUL Chocolate the position of AMUL is not
satisfactory. It is generally consider AMUL is in the 3rd position after
CADBURY and NESTLE. Both the company has separate distribution channel
for chocolate, they are giving high priority to confectionery products. They are
providing easy replacement, high penetration, and regular visit to retailers shop.
Most importantly they are providing cool storage equipment to their retailers
and they positioning their product through heavy advertisement campaign.
Recently the AMUL Chocolate is re-lunched in market but the position
remain same, which is very critical for the company. After re-lunched, the sale
volume and customer awareness about the all chocolate products remain
unsatisfactory, which create harsh situation for all organization. Company
highly willing to excel in the chocolate field there are some problem, which is
adversely influence the organization.

Although all efforts were taken to make the result of survey as accurate as
possible the survey had the following constraints :
Retailers are not willing to give answers of the questions due to their busy
schedules.
Retailers hide the facts especially in the sales figure.
A few retailers were not cooperating during the project survey. It was
quite difficult to collect necessary data.
Due to the time constraint and other imperative workload during the
training period it could not be made possible to explore more areas of
concern pertaining to project study.
The employee of Amul India limited were very hesitant and reluctant to
give all information which was vital for my project work because some
information were confidential in nature.

Amul History
Amul was formally registered on December 14, 1946. The brand name Amul,
sourced from the Sanskrit word Amoolya, means priceless. It was suggested by
a quality control expert in Anand. Some cite the origin as an acronym to (Anand
Milk Producers Union Limited).
The Amul revolution was started as awareness among the farmers. It grew and
matured into a protest movement that was channeled towards economic
prosperity
27
CONCEPTUAL DISCUSSION ON PROMOTION
Seeing the cold war in the chocolate industry the company had to decided
to go one step ahead to beat the competition and to promotion activity to Amul
Chocolate.
Now day’s dealers are expecting the promotion activity for availability of
the product at the right time is vary important. It happens where dealers will be
least care about the brand availability by offering this promotion activity
Cadbury will be able to hit the minds of dealers and again this activity will also
helps in improving the image of Cadbury where it is weak, as well as the
specialties like dairy milk etc.

store than it does to keep an old happy. I perhaps that’s way Leonard and many
other business people, and here uncompromisingly to a corporate policy of :
• Rule 1 : The customer is always right
The main aim of marketing is to be met and satisfy target retailer need and
wants. The fields of retailer behavior studies how individuals groups and
organization select buy-sell the goods to increase their sale and to earn profit.
Understanding retailers’ behaviors and knowing retailer is a never simple
retailer may state their needs and wants but act otherwise. They may not be in
touch with deeper motivation. They many respond to influences that change
their mind at the last minute. Nevertheless marketers must duty their target
retailers and customer wants preparation preference shaping and buying
behavior. The retailer responds with certain observable buyer responses,
including product choice brand choice purchase timing and purchase amount.
Marketer must understand how retailer’s buying behavior are an affected by a
buyer’s particular characteristics and personal decision process buyer
characteristics includes four major basis components, culture, social personal
and psychological factors. Culture is the most basis determinant of a person’s
want and behavior. It includes the basis value; perception, preferences and
social factors also influence buyer behavior. Product and brand choice are
strongly affected by a person’s reference group, including family, friend, and
personal factors such as age and life cycle stage, occupation, economic
situation, and personality also influence buying decision finally retailer
30
behavior is also influence by four major psychological factors motivation,
perception, learning and beliefs and attitudes.
The buyer decision for new products add additional complexity retailer passing
through the stage of an awareness, interest, evaluation, trail and finally
adopting. Retailers respond to new products at different rates depending upon
individual differences in innovativeness. Whether they are innovators, early
adopter, early majority, late majority or laggards.
31
Finally the characteristics or the new product itself relative advantage,
capability, complexity, divisibility and communicability will affect the rate of
adoption.
Retailer behavior is complex and difficult to understand ever
familiar country marketers who must deal with consumer behavior across
international borders face an additional challenge. Retailer in different countries
may very dramatically in values, attitudes and behavior. These different often-
significant changes in products and marketing programmers to achieve success
in international markets.
RETAILERS’ EXPECTATION
• Around 90% of the retail markets are ready for Amul chocolate as
they have fait in Amul brand.
1 FREEZER: -
All the chocolate company viz. Cadbury and nestle give their own
freezers and the retailers are not allowed to stock other companies product in
it. The freezer now being provided by Cadbury are two type. The first serve
the dual purpose of storage and also a display counter as they come with a
transparent glass. According to the retailers these freezer have added to their
32
sales now the customer can actually see that various chocolate kept inside
further these chocolate operate on only 100 watts of electricity can on an
inverter too and the chocolate does not melt up to a long time.
The second type of freezer is the rack freezer. The deposit taken generally
depends on
size and the kind of freezer taken but in certain cases I found out that the
retailer differ and tend to be flexible with the amount of sales given by that
particular retailers.
2. ADVERTISING: -
This is another factor that affect the retailers a lot. All the major
player and especially Cadbury takes special care in this respect. Nestle also
does the advertising but not as Cadbury. Amul has to taken aggressive
advertising countered especially at Delhi market. The retailers have Cleary
stated that they would first see the demand of the product in the market
coupled with advertising support from the company and only them they would
be interested in stocking Amul chocolate.
3. REPLACEMENT POLICY :-
Amul is already blamed for poor replacement policy and with two major
player giving this policy. Amul has to giving certain kinds of replacement
policy to make its product more acceptable to the retailers for instance Cadbury
gives 100% replacement for product defects and around 80% replacement for
damage due to some the time taken by the company to reimbursement
33
Big retailers said that they would keep the product only when the
customer demand for it. There policy and other retailer said that the quality of
chocolate should be good and should be in more verity.
5 . PROPER DISTRIBUTION :-
Cadbury have sound distribution system. They give their dealer a lot of
monetary benefits through schemes and dealers in turn taken care of proper
distribution. Dealer are gifted on achieving sales target.
The dealers also take care of malignance of freezer in the event of these
to repair the freezer.

SUGGESTIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS
The company should try to build some feed back mechanism from the
retailer to check the wholesalers intervention in the AMUL’S
distribution area because the wholesaler try to hamper the goodwill as
well as the other benefit of the company and their most important part of
distribution channel.
The company should provide new schemes on the regular basis to the
60
retailers as well as to the consumers to increase its market share.
During my project this fact become clear that the customer are not well
aware about the all product item of amul chocolate so through the strong
advertisement company should try to increase the awareness of the
AMUL chocolate.
The retailers main problem is storage of AMUL Chocolate as I saw
Cadbury as well as nestly both company provide refrigerator and display
box for proper storage as well as the promotion of their product so
AMUL should do something on this line.
61
CONCLUSION
Amul Chocolate enjoys the trust of the retailers as well as the consumer
because of its quality and huge brand image. Currently the stock of Amul
Chocolate supplied by the company is not of fresh date. As a result of this
situation is making an adverse impact on the market of Amul Chocolate
There a big storage problem with Amul Chocolate it has need to keep in
certain temperature.
Some distributors does not give proper information to the retailers about
the product and offers given by the company for the promotion of the
Amul Chocolate. Which leads bad image of the company.
There is some problem with the packaging of the product. As a result the
Chocolate puffed before its expiry period.
The supply of Amul Chocolate is not proper in some specific areas .Which
gives wrong massage about company.
62
The competitors of Some of the competitors of are providing easy
replacement facility to the retailers which are attracting them towards those
companies.
Some of the competitors of some of the competitors are providing wider
margins to the retailers. Wider margin is making the retailers to push the
sales of the competitors.
