ABOUT NUTRALITE
The affluent laid back lifestyle of the urban Indian consumer has given way to many lifestyle
diseases and prompted the consumer to become more health conscious. The increasing incidence
of heart problems and diabetes has paved the way for emergence of health foods.
Keeping in line the idea of promising health along with fitness, Zydus Wellness offers Nutralite,
which is a healthy alternative to butter. Nutralite is a premium table spread which is cholesterol
free and does not contain hydrogenated fats. It also has PUFA (poly unsaturated fatty acids) and
MUFA (mono unsaturated fatty acids) which are known cholesterol fighters. So, while Nutralite
tastes like butter, all of these advantages make its profile healthier. Today, it is widely accepted
as a healthier substitute to butter.
PACKAGING OF NUTRALITE:-
100 gm, 200 gm, 500 gm, 10*100 gm, 5*100 gm.
OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY:
The main objective of the project lies in understanding the functioning of sales and distribution
channel and hence to increase the business of Nutralite. The project includes an analysis of
current Nutralite outlets in Lucknow to determine the current market situation .it also includes:
 Creating brand awareness of Nutralite.
 Studying the current market scenario and identifying better ways to increase the market
share of Nutralite.
 Identifying and analyzing the reasons for closed outlets of Nutralite and providing
solutions.
 Creating awareness among the retailers about the Zydus products.
 To know about the factors which affects consumer’s buying behavior.
 To know about the preference of Nutralite in comparison with other competitive brands.
 To study the various strategy of Zydus Wellness used to increase the penetration of
Nutralite in various markets.
 Factors influencing retailer buying behavior.
 Expectations of retailers from Nutralite.
 To collect the detailed data by asking the from the various outlets like grocery, bakery,
wholesalers.
 Understanding the 4 P’s (product, price, place, promotion) of marketing in relation to
Nutralite.
SCOPE OF THE STUDY:
There is neck to neck competition in the market. The work in Zydus Wellness can be useful in
following ways:
 Knowing the retailers satisfaction level towards the delivery and distribution of Nutralite.
 Assessment of Nutralite’s position in comparison to competitors.
 To understand the distribution flaws and complaints of the retailers and try to improve
them or provide suggestions.
 To further grab the market share, which in turn will help in enhancing business by
increasing the sales volume.
LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY:
 The study limits to region of Lucknow.
 Sample size is very small and this can’t help to know all about the butter market. It may
be possible that in a particular area the company is having a good team of salesman or the
disposable income of the residents of that area is comparatively more than others. This
reason can’t come into picture until and unless a big survey is done.
 Some discrepancies may occur due to random sample undertaken.
 The tendency to give wrong information by some retailers may be misguiding.
 Being a perishable product no product sample could be shown as demanded by many
prospects like hotel and restaurant clients.

of unsold and expired stock, services provided by distributors, quality, taste, and customer
preference of Nutralite. Non existing outlets including competitor’s outlets were visited, interacted
to know about competitor strategies and then Nutralite products and schemes were explained to
convert that prospect into Nutralite retailer.

MARKET SURVEY AND SALES:
Initial part of the project was about induction in the CPD business. The project started with
visiting the existing Nutralite outlets with the company salesman. The main purpose was to
understand the distribution channel of Nutralite, storage facilities. Observe and learn how to deal
and interact with retailers, tackle their grievances, problem faced by the distributor, etc. all this
helped to get a clear picture of the ground reality of butter business, the basic of sales and
distribution, observe and learn as how to deal and interact with the retailer, understand their
problems and try to solve them or at least convince them. The behaviour of the salesman or any
company executive towards the retailers is very important in CPD industry. As any harsh or
negative attitude will compel the retailer to shift to next competitor. Then it is next to impossible
to bring back that lost customer.
Next the area wise list of existing Nutralite retailers under company distributor, Maa Durga
traders was handed over. The task was to visit these outlets and as well as competitor outlets. The
object of visiting Nutralite outlets was to know their satisfaction level and perception towards
Nutralite, its distribution, replacement policy, profit margin, etc. the data was collected through
a questionnaire. The list handed also included the closed outlets of Nutralite. These outlets were
visited to know the reason for closing the business, try to solve the issues and finally convincing
them to again start the business.
The competitor outlets were visited to know their perception towards the competitors, their
promotional schemes, distribution network, profit margin, etc... These competitors’ retailers were
made aware of Nutralite product range, profit margins, promotional schemes, and other benefits.
The object was to convince them to keep Nutralite along with other brands.
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS:
1. LOCATION OF OUTLETS:

be reachable to the consumer so that the sale can be made.

DISTRIBUTION TO MODERN RETAIL STORES:
INTRODUCTION: Modern Retailing in India
In a sharp contrast to the Retail sector in developed economics, retailing in India though large in
terms of size is highly fragmented and unorganized. With close to 12 million retail outlets the
country has one of the highest retail densities worldwide. Retailers include street vendors,
supermarkets, department stores, restaurants, hotels .Where the ownership and management rest
with one person are classified as traditional or unorganized retail outlets. These formats typically
require employees with low skills and account for around two-third sectors output.
TRADITIONAL FORMATS:
 Kirana stores
 Grocery
 Exclusive/Multiple Brand outlet
 Bakery shops
MODERN FORMATS:
 Supermarkets
 Hypermarkets
 Departmental Stores
SWOT ANALYSIS:
 STRENGTH:-
 Zydus wellness has a well-built image of excellence and innovation.
 It has a well logistics and distribution channel network.
 High brand image of Zydus in the market.
 Offering new products to the customers continuously.
 WEEKNESS:-
 Trade schemes and margin of some competitors are better.
 No regular audit of the distributors.
 No training schedules for training of distributors salesman.
 Equal importance is not given by distributors to all retailors.
 Lagging much behind in advertisements and promotional activities.
 OPPORTUNITIES:-
 There is a phenomenal scope for value addition in innovations in product
development, packaging and presentation.
 By solving the replacement problem they can maximize the attention of retailors
about selling the product.
 THREATS:-
 Cut throat competition in the market.
 Amul focuses more on advertisement, as ads can be seen often.
 Customer are brand loyal ,
 Customer are not well informed.
MICHAEL PORTER FIVE FORCES ANALYSIS:-
1) ENTRY BARRIER: high
Threat of entry of new competitors will be high.
2) COMPETITION: high
Competition will be high because threat of new enterers is high. So there
will be neck to neck competition.
3) BARGAINING POWER OF CUSTOMERS: high
As the competition is neck to neck so the bargaining power of the
customer’s will be also high.
4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCT: mixed
As there are number of competitors in the market so there will be a mixed
possibility of substitute products in the market.
5) BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS: low
As there are number of competitors in the market so there will be a low possibility
of bargaining power of suppliers of the products in the market to rise.

RATIO ANALYSIS
CURRENT RATIO =CURRENT ASSESTS/CURRENT LIABILITIES
=159.43/49
=3.23
Current ratio is a financial ratio that measures whether or not a company has enough
resources to pay its debt over the next business cycle [usually 12 months] by
comparing firm’s current assets to its current liabilities. As company ratio is greater
than 1 so it means that the company is in great position to pay off its debt.
QUICK RATIO= QUICK ASSETS/CURRENT LIABILITIES
=151.69/49
=3.10
A quick ratio higher than 1:1 indicates that the business can meet its current financial
obligations with the available quick funds on hand. As company’s quick ratio is
higher in comparison with the previous year it shows company have more current
assets and liability is low.
NET PROFIT MARGIN=NET PROFIT/NET SALES *100
=97.11/213.01*100
= 45.58%
Net profit margin measures how much of each dollar earned by the company is
translated into profits. A low profit margin indicates a low margin of safety: higher
risk that a decline in sales will erase profits and results in a net loss. Net profit margin
provides clues to the company’s pricing policies, cost structure and production
efficiency.
OPERATING PROFIT RATIO=OPERATING PROFIT/NET SALES *100
=87.81/213.01*100
=47.22%
Operating margin or operating profit margin measures what proportion of a
company's revenue is left over, after deducting direct costs and overhead and
before taxes and other indirect costs such as interest. Operating margin is used to
measure company's pricing strategy and operating efficiency. It gives an idea of
how much a company makes (before interest and taxes) on each sales
EPS COMPOUNDED GROWTH RATE:
=24.85/11.59^1/3-1
=28.95%
As companies earning per share is 28.95 which represent that company is growing.
EPS figure is very important for actual and potential common stockholders because
the payment of dividend and increase in the value of stock in future largely depends
on the earnings of the company. EPS is the most widely quoted and relied figure by
investors.
COMPOUND ANNUAL GROWTH RATE:
=97.11/45.27^1/3-1
=28.97%
Profit Margin ratios indicate how much company makes for sales at each level
production, operation, and bottom line as company’s profit margin is 28.97 which is
good for an enterprise and it help to grow company larger.
ISSUES IDENTIFIED:
 Some of the retailers complained about the irregularities of the salesman. The salesman
develops a tendency not to visit those outlets from where they got to hear grievances
from the retailers and also the stores which rarely give orders.
 There is not much motivation for the salesman. There is only small incentive .since this
not enough to motivate him, he just tries to accomplish that amount of the work which let
him to maintain his job.
 Most of the retailers feel that Zydus Wellness does not advertise its products properly and
creatively. Some of the people still have the image of Zydus as medicine selling company
in their mind. In contrast to this competitors are promoting their brand.
 According to the retailers the company does not provide promotional instruments like
glow sign boards, card boards and stickers.
 In Lucknow in some outlets it was found that duplicate product was selling with the
packaging of Nutralite.
 In the market there is no proper distribution of areas as a result of cross selling is done
which directly effects the profit margin, sales of the distributor.
 Hawkers are highly active in the market as they are effecting the distributor’s sales and
margin and also them creating partiality in price as they are selling at different prices.
 Distributors do not get expenses for keeping extra sales staff so that market can be
covered in less time and distribution gets improved and less time consuming. For that
company has come up with an idea of grow 2x which will help distributors? As in this
strategy subsidy is provided as well as expenses will also be provided.
RECOMMENDATIONS
 Launch of Zydus Related Products:
Zydus should launch more Nutralite butter and other products, since consumer want
more butter related product.
 Reward To Good Retailers:
Zydus should give the rewards to the good retailers who are giving good sales. The
small retailers who are not giving good sales, Achievable targets should be given and
should be rewards in terms of gifts on achieving the targets.
 Improvement in Supply:
Improvement in supply is required as Distribution frequently get stock out from a
particular type of butter which is having more sales. This should not be a repetitive
condition. The company should send exactly that what is required by the Distributor.
Sending some others flavours which are not demanded can reduce the sales of the
popular brand lead to decrease in transparency between the Distributor and the
Retailers as the Distributor is going to avail the same policy with the retailers as the
company is availing with him. Sending proper supply can strengthen the relation of the
company. Distributor and the Retailers.
 Improvement in Packaging:
Packing can be made more attractive by using cartoons to influence the person. As per
the consumer survey, the packaging of product related the best.
 Should adopt more flexible Replacement policies:
The major reason of dissatisfaction among the other retailers was replacement policy of
expired products. It was also the reason for many of the closed outlets. The Distributors
gets replacement of 1.4% of total sales by the company. This percentage can be
increased to provide more flexibility to the Distributor. The Distributer gets
replacement from the company twice in a year. The Distributor should get the
replacement monthly so that he can also replace expire products of retailers regularly.
 Regular Audit of all the Distributors:
A regular audit to all the Distributors should be made by the company officials to check
the condition of all the supply vehicles so that proper delivery of butter is made to the
retailers. It was observed that some of the supply vehicles of the Distributor were not
working properly and the supply was made in boxes.
 Weekly Target to Distributors:
The distributors are given monthly targets as per there market. These monthly targets
should be converted to weekly targets and regular check should be kept on these
targets.
LEARNINGS FROM THE PROJECT
 The most important thing that was learnt during the project was the ground reality of
business, its Sales and Distribution.
 A lot was learnt while working under the Distributer. Especially the operational part of
the Business. How the Distributer and the entire channel functioned gave valuable
insight to channel management.
 The retailers are the trickiest person. It is very difficult to convince them. Book keeping
and marketing but know value for each rupee. They are the wisest teacher of business.
 One can never be sure of a deal till the deal is closed by receiving the money from the
concerned party.
 On the way of getting practical exposure. It was learnt that it is most important to know
the competitors well enough to have a competitive advantage.
If the entire project is to be summarized in few words then it can be said that the project gave
an enormous exposure and experience. The amount of professionalism might be on low level
but the experience gained was not less in anyway. Initial inhibitions were shed while
approaching the Retailers and consumers.

  • 13. ABOUT NUTRALITE The affluent laid back lifestyle of the urban Indian consumer has given way to many lifestyle diseases and prompted the consumer to become more health conscious. The increasing incidence of heart problems and diabetes has paved the way for emergence of health foods. Keeping in line the idea of promising health along with fitness, Zydus Wellness offers Nutralite, which is a healthy alternative to butter. Nutralite is a premium table spread which is cholesterol free and does not contain hydrogenated fats. It also has PUFA (poly unsaturated fatty acids) and MUFA (mono unsaturated fatty acids) which are known cholesterol fighters. So, while Nutralite tastes like butter, all of these advantages make its profile healthier. Today, it is widely accepted as a healthier substitute to butter.
  • 14. PACKAGING OF NUTRALITE:- 100 gm, 200 gm, 500 gm, 10*100 gm, 5*100 gm.
  • 15. OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY: The main objective of the project lies in understanding the functioning of sales and distribution channel and hence to increase the business of Nutralite.

  • 16. LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY:  The study limits to region of Lucknow.  Sample size is very small and this can’t help to know all about the butter market. It may be possible that in a particular area the company is having a good team of salesman or the disposable income of the residents of that area is comparatively more than others. This reason can’t come into picture until and unless a big survey is done.  Some discrepancies may occur due to random sample undertaken.  The tendency to give wrong information by some retailers may be misguiding.  Being a perishable product no product sample could be shown as demanded by many prospects like hotel and restaurant clients. METHODOLOGY: RESEARCH DESIGN: The research design was prepared with great care keeping in mind the research objective: the project was divided into two parts: Part A, Part B. RESEARCH APPROACH: IN PART A: Existing Nutralite outlets were visited. They were interacted to know about things like replacement of unsold and expired stock, services provided by distributors, quality, taste, and customer preference of Nutralite. Non existing outlets including competitor’s outlets were visited, interacted to know about competitor strategies and then Nutralite products and schemes were explained to convert that prospect into Nutralite retailer.
  • 17. RESEARCH METHOD: Primary data was collected through detailed market survey by means of structured questionnaire as well as unstructured interaction. Secondary data from internet also referred. IN PART B: Consumer survey was done in order to know the consumer perception regarding Nutralite.

  • 18. PROJECT DETAILS: MARKET SURVEY AND SALES: Initial part of the project was about induction in the CPD business. The project started with visiting the existing Nutralite outlets with the company salesman. The main purpose was to understand the distribution channel of Nutralite, storage facilities. Observe and learn how to deal and interact with retailers, tackle their grievances, problem faced by the distributor, etc. all this helped to get a clear picture of the ground reality of butter business, the basic of sales and distribution, observe and learn as how to deal and interact with the retailer, understand their problems and try to solve them or at least convince them. The behaviour of the salesman or any company executive towards the retailers is very important in CPD industry. As any harsh or negative attitude will compel the retailer to shift to next competitor. Then it is next to impossible to bring back that lost customer. Next the area wise list of existing Nutralite retailers under company distributor, Maa Durga traders was handed over. The task was to visit these outlets and as well as competitor outlets. The object of visiting Nutralite outlets was to know their satisfaction level and perception towards Nutralite, its distribution, replacement policy, profit margin, etc. the data was collected through a questionnaire. The list handed also included the closed outlets of Nutralite. These outlets were visited to know the reason for closing the business, try to solve the issues and finally convincing them to again start the business. The competitor outlets were visited to know their perception towards the competitors, their promotional schemes, distribution network, profit margin, etc... These competitors’ retailers were made aware of Nutralite product range, profit margins, promotional schemes, and other benefits. The object was to convince them to keep Nutralite along with other brands. IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS: 1. LOCATION OF OUTLETS:
  • 19. It is an important factor on which the sales of the product is depended because the outlet should be reachable to the consumer so that the sale can be made. 2. SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE DISTRIBUTOR: The other important factor is the how distributor is providing services to the retailer. Number of visits to the outlets. The salesman is informing the retailer about the schemes or not effects the sales of the product and brand loyalty of the customer. 3. INTERNAL COMMITMENTS MADE BY THE COMPANY: The company has an internal policy of rewarding the best performing retailer with different schemes and gifts.

  • 27. DISTRIBUTION TO MODERN RETAIL STORES: INTRODUCTION: Modern Retailing in India In a sharp contrast to the Retail sector in developed economics, retailing in India though large in terms of size is highly fragmented and unorganized. With close to 12 million retail outlets the country has one of the highest retail densities worldwide. Retailers include street vendors, supermarkets, department stores, restaurants, hotels .Where the ownership and management rest with one person are classified as traditional or unorganized retail outlets. These formats typically require employees with low skills and account for around two-third sectors output. TRADITIONAL FORMATS:  Kirana stores  Grocery  Exclusive/Multiple Brand outlet  Bakery shops MODERN FORMATS:  Supermarkets  Hypermarkets  Departmental Stores
  • 28. SWOT ANALYSIS:  STRENGTH:-  Zydus wellness has a well-built image of excellence and innovation.  It has a well logistics and distribution channel network.  High brand image of Zydus in the market.  Offering new products to the customers continuously.  WEEKNESS:-  Trade schemes and margin of some competitors are better.  No regular audit of the distributors.  No training schedules for training of distributors salesman.  Equal importance is not given by distributors to all retailors.  Lagging much behind in advertisements and promotional activities.  OPPORTUNITIES:-  There is a phenomenal scope for value addition in innovations in product development, packaging and presentation.  By solving the replacement problem they can maximize the attention of retailors about selling the product.  THREATS:-  Cut throat competition in the market.  Amul focuses more on advertisement, as ads can be seen often.  Customer are brand loyal ,  Customer are not well informed.
  • 29. MICHAEL PORTER FIVE FORCES ANALYSIS:- 1) ENTRY BARRIER: high Threat of entry of new competitors will be high. 2) COMPETITION: high Competition will be high because threat of new enterers is high. So there will be neck to neck competition. 3) BARGAINING POWER OF CUSTOMERS: high As the competition is neck to neck so the bargaining power of the customer’s will be also high. 4) THREAT OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCT: mixed
  • 30. As there are number of competitors in the market so there will be a mixed possibility of substitute products in the market. 5) BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS: low As there are number of competitors in the market so there will be a low possibility of bargaining power of suppliers of the products in the market to rise.

  • 35. RATIO ANALYSIS CURRENT RATIO =CURRENT ASSESTS/CURRENT LIABILITIES =159.43/49 =3.23 Current ratio is a financial ratio that measures whether or not a company has enough resources to pay its debt over the next business cycle [usually 12 months] by comparing firm’s current assets to its current liabilities. As company ratio is greater than 1 so it means that the company is in great position to pay off its debt. QUICK RATIO= QUICK ASSETS/CURRENT LIABILITIES =151.69/49 =3.10 A quick ratio higher than 1:1 indicates that the business can meet its current financial obligations with the available quick funds on hand. As company’s quick ratio is higher in comparison with the previous year it shows company have more current assets and liability is low. NET PROFIT MARGIN=NET PROFIT/NET SALES *100 =97.11/213.01*100 = 45.58% Net profit margin measures how much of each dollar earned by the company is translated into profits. A low profit margin indicates a low margin of safety: higher risk that a decline in sales will erase profits and results in a net loss. Net profit margin provides clues to the company’s pricing policies, cost structure and production efficiency. OPERATING PROFIT RATIO=OPERATING PROFIT/NET SALES *100 =87.81/213.01*100 =47.22% Operating margin or operating profit margin measures what proportion of a company's revenue is left over, after deducting direct costs and overhead and before taxes and other indirect costs such as interest.

  • 37. ISSUES IDENTIFIED:  Some of the retailers complained about the irregularities of the salesman. The salesman develops a tendency not to visit those outlets from where they got to hear grievances from the retailers and also the stores which rarely give orders.  There is not much motivation for the salesman. There is only small incentive .since this not enough to motivate him, he just tries to accomplish that amount of the work which let him to maintain his job.  Most of the retailers feel that Zydus Wellness does not advertise its products properly and creatively. Some of the people still have the image of Zydus as medicine selling company in their mind. In contrast to this competitors are promoting their brand.  According to the retailers the company does not provide promotional instruments like glow sign boards, card boards and stickers.  In Lucknow in some outlets it was found that duplicate product was selling with the packaging of Nutralite.  In the market there is no proper distribution of areas as a result of cross selling is done which directly effects the profit margin, sales of the distributor.  Hawkers are highly active in the market as they are effecting the distributor’s sales and margin and also them creating partiality in price as they are selling at different prices.  Distributors do not get expenses for keeping extra sales staff so that market can be covered in less time and distribution gets improved and less time consuming. For that company has come up with an idea of grow 2x which will help distributors? As in this strategy subsidy is provided as well as expenses will also be provided.
  • 38. RECOMMENDATIONS  Launch of Zydus Related Products: Zydus should launch more Nutralite butter and other products, since consumer want more butter related product.  Reward To Good Retailers: Zydus should give the rewards to the good retailers who are giving good sales. The small retailers who are not giving good sales, Achievable targets should be given and should be rewards in terms of gifts on achieving the targets.  Improvement in Supply: Improvement in supply is required as Distribution frequently get stock out from a particular type of butter which is having more sales. This should not be a repetitive condition. The company should send exactly that what is required by the Distributor. Sending some others flavours which are not demanded can reduce the sales of the popular brand lead to decrease in transparency between the Distributor and the Retailers as the Distributor is going to avail the same policy with the retailers as the company is availing with him. Sending proper supply can strengthen the relation of the company. Distributor and the Retailers.  Improvement in Packaging: Packing can be made more attractive by using cartoons to influence the person. As per the consumer survey, the packaging of product related the best.  Should adopt more flexible Replacement policies: The major reason of dissatisfaction among the other retailers was replacement policy of expired products. It was also the reason for many of the closed outlets. The Distributors gets replacement of 1.4% of total sales by the company. This percentage can be increased to provide more flexibility to the Distributor. The Distributer gets replacement from the company twice in a year. The Distributor should get the replacement monthly so that he can also replace expire products of retailers regularly.  Regular Audit of all the Distributors: A regular audit to all the Distributors should be made by the company officials to check the condition of all the supply vehicles so that proper delivery of butter is made to the retailers. It was observed that some of the supply vehicles of the Distributor were not working properly and the supply was made in boxes.
  • 39.  Weekly Target to Distributors: The distributors are given monthly targets as per there market. These monthly targets should be converted to weekly targets and regular check should be kept on these targets. LEARNINGS FROM THE PROJECT
  • 40.  The most important thing that was learnt during the project was the ground reality of business, its Sales and Distribution.  A lot was learnt while working under the Distributer. Especially the operational part of the Business. How the Distributer and the entire channel functioned gave valuable insight to channel management.  The retailers are the trickiest person. It is very difficult to convince them. Book keeping and marketing but know value for each rupee. They are the wisest teacher of business.  One can never be sure of a deal till the deal is closed by receiving the money from the concerned party.  On the way of getting practical exposure. It was learnt that it is most important to know the competitors well enough to have a competitive advantage. If the entire project is to be summarized in few words then it can be said that the project gave an enormous exposure and experience. The amount of professionalism might be on low level but the experience gained was not less in anyway. Initial inhibitions were shed while approaching the Retailers and consumers.
