SCOPE OF THE STUDY:
The study is mainly based on the details collected from each department. It provides a
better understanding of functional level of each department. Each activities of the company are
studied very carefully with the data available. It also helps to bridge the gap between the theory
and actual practice of management.
There were many difficulties in obtaining data from executives and manager
Most of the data required is kept in head office.
Busy work schedule of the employees.
The unwillingness to disclose all the information from certain departments.
Management kept certain matters regarding the latest facts and strictly
confidential.
It was difficult for the employees to spare their time for detailed descriptions.

CHAPTER :2
INDUSTRY
PROFILE
India is the world’s second largest producer of food next to china. The total food
production in India is likely is to be double in the next 10 years and there are large investment
opportunities in food and food processing technologies.
CURRENT SCENARIO:
India with the total milk production of 109 million tones is the world's highest
milk-producing country for the past one decade now and accounted for about 15% of the world
milk production in 2009. The importance of dairy enterprise in the national economy can be
gauged from the fact that the value of output from milk group is highest among all the
agricultural commodities, accounting for nearly one fourth of the value of output from
agricultural sector. Dairying is one of the most important means of providing livelihood and
nutritional security to the rural masses. The livestock activities, among which dairy farming
predominates, employ about 8.5 million workers in the country. Milk and milk products
account for 9.2 and 12.4 percent of protein intake in rural and urban areas, respectively, which
is higher than the protein intake through non-vegetarian animal products.
WORLD SCENARIO:
Milk Production
The increased production of milk has improved the per capita milk availability to
250 grams per day. The demand of milk and milk products in India is projected to increase to
142.9 million tons in 2015 and further to 191.3 million tons in 2020. At the existing rate of
growth in milk production, in next ten years, supply will fall short of the demand. Together with
8
the increase in domestic demand of milk, at the international level, particularly in developing
countries, the three drivers of demand - population growth, urbanization and income growth- are
very strongly in operation.
Livestock
During the year 2015-16 the country had 19.34 million crossbred (CB) cows,
28.37 million indigenous (Ind.) cows and 33.17 million buffaloes (Buff.) in milk. The milk
production of the corresponding categories was 19.34 million tones (CB), 20.41 million tones
(Ind.) and 52.07 million tones (Buff.). The average milk production of the respective categories
was 6.44 kg/d (CB), 1.97 kg/d (Ind.) and 4.3 kg/d (Buff.) thereby indicating that the focus should
continue towards better milk yielders viz. crossbred cows and buffaloes and the strategy for
increasing milk production should focus on increasing animal productivity rather than animal
population.
OPERATIONAL FLOOD
Operation flood is one of the important moves in the history of diary development
in India. It was conceived and formulated by National Diary Development Board during the
fourth plan. It was conducted to meet the India’s rapidly increasing need of milk and milk’s
product and making diary industry capable of viable and self-sustaining growth.
Milk producing animals have been domesticated for thousands of years. India is
the top most country in the Milk production. Protecting and feeding the animals were a big part
of the symbiotic relationship between the animals and herders. People in agricultural societies
owned dairy animals that they milked for domestic and local consumption.
9
India is also one of largest consumers of milk and milk products. Due to rich
nutritional qualities, the consumption of dairy product has been growing exponentially in the
country, and considering such facts and figures, my study anticipates that the milk production in
India.
Industrial processing
Dairy plants process the raw milk they receive from farmers to extend its
marketable life. Two main types of processes are employed: heat treatment to ensure the safety
of milk for human consumption and to lengthen its shelf-life, and dehydrating dairy products
such as butter, hard cheese and milk powders so that they can be stored.
Today, milk is separated by huge machines in bulk into cream and skim milk. The
cream is processed to produce various consumer products, depending on its thickness, its
suitability for culinary uses and consumer demand, which differs from place to place and country
to country.
Some cream is dried and powdered, some is condensed (by evaporation) mixed
with varying amounts of sugar and canned. Most cream from New Zealand and Australian
factories is made into butter. This is done by churning the cream until the fat globules coagulate
and form a monolithic mass. This butter mass is washed and, sometimes, salted to improve
keeping qualities. The residual buttermilk goes on to further processing. The butter is packaged
(25 to 50 kg boxes) and chilled for storage and sale. At a later stage these packages are broken
down into home-consumption sized packs.
Skimmed milk
The product left after the cream is removed is called skim, or skimmed, milk. To
make a consumable liquid a portion of cream is returned to the skim milk to make low fat milk
10
(semi-skimmed) for human consumption. By varying the amount of cream returned, producers
can make a variety of low-fat milks to suit their local market. Other products, such as calcium,
vitamin D, and flavoring, are also added to appeal to consumers.
Casein
Casein is the predominant phosphoprotein found in fresh milk. It has a very wide
range of uses from being a filler for human foods, such as in ice cream, to the manufacture of
products such as fabric, adhesives, and plastics.
Cheese
Cheese is another product made from milk. Whole milk is reacted to form curds
that can be compressed, processed and stored to form cheese. In countries where milk is legally
allowed to be processed without pasteurization, a wide range of cheeses can be made using the
bacteria naturally in the milk. In most other countries, the range of cheeses is smaller, and the use
of artificial cheese curing is greater. Whey is also the byproduct of this process. Some people
with lactose intolerance are surprisingly able to eat certain types of cheese. This is because some
traditionally made hard cheeses, and soft ripened cheeses may create less reaction than the
equivalent amount of milk because of the processes involved. Fermentation and higher fat
content contribute to lesser amounts of lactose. Traditionally made Cheddar might contain 10%
of the lactose found in whole milk. In addition, the aging methods of traditional cheeses
(sometimes over two years) reduce their lactose content to practically nothing. Commercial
cheeses, however, are often manufactured by processes that do not have the same lactose-
reducing properties. Ageing of some cheeses is governed by regulations; in other cases, there is
no quantitative indication of degree of ageing and concomitant lactose reduction, and lactose
content is not usually indicated on labels.
Whey
In earlier times, whey or milk serum was considered to be a waste product and it
was, mostly, fed to pigs as a convenient means of disposal. Beginning about 1950, and mostly
11
since about 1980, lactose and many other products, mainly food additives, are made from both
casein and cheese whey.
Yogurt
Yogurt (or yoghurt) making is a process like cheese making, only the process is
arrested before the curd becomes very hard.
Milk powders
Milk is also processed by various drying processes into powders. Whole milk,
skim milk, buttermilk, and whey products are dried into a powder form and used for human and
animal consumption. The main difference between production of powders for human or for
animal consumption is in the protection of the process and the product from contamination.
Some people drink milk reconstituted from powdered milk, because milk is about 88% water and
it is much cheaper to transport the dried product.

Milk churns on a railway platform
Originally, milking and processing took place on the dairy farm itself. Later,
cream was separated from the milk by machine on the farm and transported to a factory to be
made into butter. The skim milk was fed to pigs. This allowed for the high cost of transport
(taking the smallest volume high-value product), primitive trucks and the poor quality of roads.
Only farms close to factories could afford to take whole milk, which was essential for cheese
making in industrial quantities, to them.
Originally milk was distributed in 'pails, a lidded bucket with a handle. These
proved impractical for transport by road or rail, and so the milk churn was introduced, based on
the tall conical shape of the butter churn. Later large railway containers, such as the British
Railway Milk Tank Wagon were introduced, enabling the transport of larger quantities of milk,
and over longer distances.
The development of refrigeration and better road transport, in the late 1950s, has
meant that most farmers milk their cows and only temporarily store the milk in large refrigerated
bulk tanks, from where it is later transported by truck to central processing facilities.

Milking machines
Main article: Automatic milking
Milking machines are used to harvest milk from cows when manual milking
becomes inefficient or labor-intensive. One early model was patented in 1907. The milking unit
is the portion of a milking machine for removing milk from an udder. It is made up of a claw,
four teat cups, (Shells and rubber liners) long milk tube, long pulsation tube, and a pulsator. The
claw is an assembly that connects the short pulse tubes and short milk tubes from the teats cups
to the long pulse tube and long milk tube. (Cluster assembly) Claws are commonly made of
stainless steel or plastic or both. teats cups are composed of a rigid outer shell (stainless steel or
plastic) that holds a soft inner liner or inflation. Transparent sections in the shell may allow
viewing of liner collapse and milk flow. The annular space between the shell and liner is called
the pulse chamber.
Milking machines work in a way that is different from hand milking or calf
suckling. Continuous vacuum is applied inside the soft liner to massage milk from the teat by
creating a pressure difference across the teat canal (or opening at the end of the teat). Vacuum
also helps keep the machine attached to the cow. The vacuum applied to the teat causes
congestion of teat tissues (accumulation of blood and other fluids). Atmospheric air is admitted
into the pulsation chamber about once per second (the pulsation rate) to allow the liner to
collapse around the end of teat and relieve congestion in the teat tissue. The ratio of the time that
the liner is open (milking phase) and closed (rest phase) is called the pulsation ratio.
14
The four streams of milk from the teacup’s are usually combined in the claw and
transported to the milk line, or the collection bucket (usually sized to the output of one cow) in a
single milk hose. Milk is then transported (manually in buckets) or with a combination of airflow
and mechanical pump to a central storage vat or bulk tank. Milk is refrigerated on the farm in
most countries either by passing through a heat-exchanger or in the bulk tank, or both.
The photo to the right shows a bucket milking system with the stainless-steel
bucket visible on the far side of the cow. The two rigid stainless-steel teat cup shells applied to
the front two quarters of the udder are visible. The top of the flexible liner is visible at the top of
the shells as are the short milk tubes and short pulsation tubes extending from the bottom of the
shells to the claw. The bottom of the claw is transparent to allow observation of milk flow. When
milking is completed the vacuum to the milking unit is shut off and the teacups are removed.
Milking machines keep the milk enclosed and safe from external contamination.
The interior 'milk contact' surfaces of the machine are kept clean by a manual or automated
washing procedures implemented after milking is completed. Milk contact surfaces must comply
with regulations requiring food-grade materials (typically stainless steel and special plastics and
rubber compounds) and are easily cleaned.
Most milking machines are powered by electricity but, in case of electrical failure,
there can be an alternative means of motive power, often an internal combustion engine, for the
vacuum and milk pumps.
15
Bail-style sheds
This type of milking facility was the first development, after open-paddock
milking, for many farmers. The building was a long, narrow, lean-to shed that was open along
one long side. The cows were held in a yard at the open side and when they were about to be
milked, they were positioned in one of the bails (stalls). Usually the cows were restrained in the
bail with a breech chain and a rope to restrain the outer back leg. The cow could not move about
excessively and the milker could expect not to be kicked or trampled while sitting on a (three-
legged) stool and milking into a bucket. When each cow was finished, she backed out into the
yard again. The UK bail, initially developed by Wiltshire dairy farmer Arthur Hosier, was a six
standing mobile shed with steps that the cow mounted, so the herdsman didn't have to bend so
low. The milking equipment was much as today, a vacuum from a pump, pulsators, and a claw-
piece with pipes leading to the four shells and liners that stimulate and suck the milk from the
teat. The milk went into churns, via a cooler.
As herd sizes increased a door was set into the front of each bail so that when the
milking was done for any cow the milker could, after undoing the leg-rope and with a remote
link, open the door and allow her to exit to the pasture. The door was closed, the next cow
walked into the bail and was secured. When milking machines were introduced bails were set in
pairs so that a cow was being milked in one paired bail while the other could be prepared for
milking. When one was finished the machine’s, cups are swapped to the other cow. This is the
same as for Swing over Milking Parlors as described below except that the cups are loaded on
the udder from the side. As herd numbers increased it was easier to double-up the cup-sets and
milk both cows simultaneously than to increase the number of bails. About 50 cows an hour can
be milked in a shed with 8 bails by one person. Using the same teat cups for successive cows has
the danger of transmitting infection, mastitis, from one cow to another. Some farmers have
devised their own ways to disinfect the clusters between cows.
In herringbone milking sheds, or parlors, cows enter, in single file, and line up
almost perpendicular to the central aisle of the milking parlor on both sides of a central pit in
16
which the milker works (you can visualize a fishbone with the ribs representing the cows and the
spine being the milker's working area; the cows face outward). After washing the udder and teats
the cups of the milking machine are applied to the cows, from the rear of their hind legs, on both
sides of the working area. Large herringbone sheds can milk up to 600 cows efficiently with two
people.
Swing over parlors are the same as herringbone parlors except they have only one
set of milking cups to be shared between the two rows of cows, as one side is being milked the
cows on the other side are moved out and replaced with unmilked ones. The advantage of this
system is that it is less costly to equip, however it operates at slightly better than half-speed and
one would not normally try to milk more than about 100 cows with one person.
80- stand rotary dairy that is fully computerized and records milk production
Rotary milking sheds (also known as Rotary milking parlor) consist of a turntable
with about 12 to 100 individual stalls for cows around the outer edge. A "good" rotary will be
operated with 24–32 (~48–50+) stalls by one (two) milkers. The turntable is turned by an
electric-motor drive at a rate that one turn is the time for a cow to be milked completely. As an
empty stall passes the entrance a cow steps on, facing the center, and rotates with the turntable.
The next cow moves into the next vacant stall and so on. The operator, or milker, cleans the teats,
attaches the cups and does any other feeding or whatever husbanding operations that are
17
necessary. Cows are milked as the platform rotates. The milker, or an automatic device, removes
the milking machine cups and the cow backs out and leaves at an exit just before the entrance.
The rotary system is capable of milking very large herds—over a thousand cows.
Farmers soon realized that a milking shed was a good place to feed cows
supplementary foods that overcame local dietary deficiencies or added to the cows' wellbeing
and production. Each bail might have a box into which such feed is delivered as the cow arrives
so that she is eating while being milked. A computer can read the ear tag of each animal to ration
the correct individual supplement. A close alternative is to use 'out-of-parlour-feeders', stalls that
respond to a transponder around the cow's neck that is programmed to provide each cow with a
supplementary feed, the quantity dependent on her production, stage in lactation, and the benefits
of the main ratio. The holding yard at the entrance of the shed is important as a means of keeping
cows moving into the shed. Most yards have a powered gate that ensures that the cows are kept
close to the shed.
Water is a vital commodity on a dairy farm: cows drink about 20 gallons (80
liters) a day, sheds need water to cool and clean them. Pumps and reservoirs are common at
milking facilities. Water can be warmed by heat transfer with milk.
18
Temporary milk storage
Milk coming from the cow is transported to a nearby storage vessel by the airflow
leaking around the cups on the cow or by a special "air inlet" (5-10 l/min free air) in the claw.
From there it is pumped by a mechanical pump and cooled by a heat exchanger. The milk is then
stored in a large vat, or bulk tank, which is usually refrigerated until collection for processing
pigs. This allowed for the high cost of transport (taking the smallest volume high-value product),
primitive trucks and the poor quality of roads. Only farms close to factories could afford to take
whole milk, which was essential for cheese making in industrial quantities, to them.
Originally milk was distributed in 'pails', a lidded bucket with a handle. These
proved impractical for transport by road or rail, and so the milk churn was introduced, based on
the tall conical shape of the butter churn. Later large railway containers, such as the British
Railway Milk Tank Wagon were introduced, enabling the transport of larger quantities of milk,
and over longer distances.
The development of refrigeration and better road transport, in the late 1950s, has
meant that most farmers milk their cows and only temporarily store the milk in large refrigerated
bulk tanks, from where it is later transported by truck to central processing facilities.

PIONEERING IN PACKAGING
They have redefined the term packaging by introducing
―Thermoformed Vacuum Pack‖ for Paneer in India with the world best machine from
20
MULTIVAC Germany. Today 20 of their products packed in the same method using 4 such
machines. Their packaging and design attract industry accolades and the standards are followed
by many. Their packing designs are done in-house with daring bright colors which emphasis the
freshness and premium quality of our product. With this make sure that the superior product
quality and world class packaging are matched and provided to our customers.
Quality is the prime objective of their organization. They use highly advanced
machinery to processes their products, which also ensure about their durability for long duration.
Their offered products ranges are of optimum quality and finely finished. They have received
various appreciations for the unmatched quality of the products and services and timely delivery
of the consignments. They stringently quality check the products in various quality parameters,
which ensures their durability and reliability.
―Most shops had only Pepsi or Coke chillers. We can’t keep our products in their
chillers. So, we decided to supply our own chillers, said by Mr. T. S. Sathish Kumar (CEO of
Milky Mist). However, they understood that using their chillers exclusively to market paneer was
a waste of valuable resource. Since 2011, as they introduced the chillers in shops – there are
currently 2200 Milky Mist (300 liter and 600-liter capacity) chillers in stores across South India -
they began to make more products.

CHAPTER 6
MARKETING
DEPARTMENT
Marketing is done in a medium scale market where they tend to supply the south
side of India. Marketing is a function of business and many persons of the organization
participate in marketing activities.
Engineering is responsible for details of design and manufacturing that provide the
products with quality and profit potential. Marketing is also concerned with profits for the
company. The viewpoints of marketing and engineering are to be coordinated with good
engineering economy analysis combined with demand analysis of marketers.
Balance and harmony in the company demand that manufacturing and marketing jointly
determine what is in the company's best interests whenever a dispute arises between the
departments. Solutions include joint seminars of issues of common interest and joint analytical
problem solving. Company profitability is greatly affected by marketing-manufacturing
coordination which is another name for customer service - profit analysis. Marketing can't take
credit for revenue and blame manufacturing for costs. Marketing itself may be responsible for the
costs and it may be useful for the lower price’s customers. This is the good marketing decision
making.
Distribution channels in marketing are one of the classic ―4 Ps‖ (product, promotion, price, and
place). They’re a key element in your entire marketing strategy. B2B and B2C companies can
sell through a single distribution channel or through multiple channels that may include:
Wholesaler/Distributor
Direct/Internet
Direct/Catalog
28
Direct/Sales Team
Consultant
Dealer
Retail
Whether they need additional products or services to be used along with yours
30
The company has a wide distribution network and service centers throughout South India.
There are basically 3 types of marketing channels.
Direct selling
Dual distribution
Direct Selling
Direct selling is the marketing and selling of products directly to consumers away from
a fixed retail location.
An intermediary is a third party that offers intermediation services between two trading
parties.
Dual Distribution

CHAPTER-7
QUALITY
DEPARTMENT
Milky mist works with an aim of giving high quality products to its customers.
The quality control department is headed by quality control officer and is followed by
bacteriologist, lab technicians, lab assistant. Milky mist products are tested at every stage of
production. This department is maintained mainly for checking the quality of products right from
the reception stage to the final stage of production and thus providing the customers with best
products. The milk should not be acidic in any case. The PH of milk should always be in the
range of 6.5 -6.7.
The quality is monitored at all stages in terms of flavor, temperature, acidity etc.
All the physical and chemical properties are also considered. Various quick test is conducted like
bacteriological test, phosphates test is conducted, ethylene test, blue reduction test, moisture test.
Usually test is conducted to find out whether the milk in neutral, or whether hydrogen peroxide
has been added by the farmers.
MILKY MIST is very much quality conscious and hence customers have a lot of
faith in its product.
32
Benefits of Quality Systems
Customer satisfaction, and therefore, customer loyalty and repeat business and referral.
Timely registration of materials by eliminating waste and the need for rework.
Operational results such as revenue, profitability, market share and export opportunities.
Alignment of processes with achievement of better results.
