2.1 Company Profiles
Nestle Alimentana, Switzerland, a wholly owned subsidiary of Nestle Holdings Ltd. the
Company expanded its product range with new products in instant coffee, noodles,
sauces, pickles, culinary aids, chocolates and confectionery, dairy products and mineral water.
Nestlé can trace its origins back to 1866, when the first European condensed milk factory was
opened in Cham, Switzerland, by the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company. One year later,
Henri Nestlé, a trained pharmacist, launched one of the world’s first prepared infant cereals
‘Farine lactée’ in Vevey, Switzerland. With headquarters still based in the Swiss town of
Vevey. We employ around 280 000 people and have factories or operations in almost every
country in the world. Nestlé sales for 2010 were almost CHF 110 bn. today Nestlé Bangladesh
Ltd. is a strongly positioned organization. The Company will continue to grow through our
policy of constant innovation and renovation, concentrating on our core competencies and our
commitment to high quality, with the aim of providing the best quality food to the people of
Bangladesh.
2.2 History
In the mid-1860s Nestlé, a trained pharmacist named Henri Nestle began experimenting with
various combinations of cow's milk, wheat flour and sugar in an attempt to develop an
alternative source of infant nutrition for mothers who were unable to breast feed. His ultimate
goal was to help combat the problem of infant mortality due to malnutrition. He called the new
product Farine Lactée Henri Nestlé.
Nestlé's first customer was a premature infant who could not tolerate any of the conventional
substitutes, and had been given up for lost by local physicians. People quickly recognized the
value of the new product, after Nestlé's new formula saved the child's life and within a few years,
Farine Lactée Nestlé was being marketed in much of Europe.
Henri Nestlé also showed early understanding of the power of branding. Nestlé means 'little
nest'. Nestle was created in 1867.
Nestlé is today the world’s leading food company, with a 140-year history and operations in
virtually every country in the world. Their principal assets are not office buildings, factories, or
even brands. Rather, it is the fact that they are a global organization comprised of many
nationalities, religions, and ethnic backgrounds all working together in one single unifying

14 | P a g e
corporate culture. Their culture unifies people on all continents, with roughly half their factories
and people located in the developing world.
Nestle started it operations in Pakistan in 1988. A qualified workforce, trained by nestles or
emerging from a strong educational and industrial context, strongly influences the company’s
ability to be globally competitive. The fair treatment and development of company staff and the
strengthening of the local workforce are essential long-term investments. They reinforce the
conditions for growth and sustained economic development in the locations where Nestlé
operates. Nestlé’s ability to employ thousands of people each year is an important contribution
the company makes towards future generations, providing income to families who can enhance
their chances at better education, healthcare and standard of living for entire families and
communities.
2.3 Mission Statement
"Nestlé is the largest food company in the world. But, more important to them is to be the
world's leading food company”.
At Nestlé, we believe that research can help us make better food so that people live a better life.
Good Food is the primary source of Good Health throughout life. We strive to bring consumers
foods that are safe, of high quality and provide optimal nutrition to meet physiological needs. In
addition to Nutrition, Health and Wellness, Nestlé products bring consumers the vital ingredients
of taste and pleasure.
2.4 Vision statement
“Nestlé aim is to meet the various needs of the consumer every day by marketing and selling
food of a consistently high quality. The confidences that consumers have in our brands is a result
of our company’s many years of knowledge in marketing, research and development, as well as
continuity – consumers relate to this and feel they can trust our products”.

4.1 Analysis of Nestle
HRM practices followed by the company/ Specific HR sector like- Training and development:
Training and development is a vital and effective operation of an organization. It is people, not
buildings that make a company successful.
Assets make things possible but people make things happen. And for making them efficient and
hardworking company should provide training and development of their staffs and nestle do the
same thing as all biggest and efficient companies do for their staffs and all over the human
resource department, and employees play dual role in the company. First, as a factor of
production. And second, it makes other factors operative and productive.
Five steps of training and development processes
To make an efficient and well maintained management and training process a company can
follow five steps which can be key success for the training process of the company, those cores
five stages are:
Step-1 Need analysis: identifies the specific job performance skills needed, assessed the
prospective trainees skills, and develops specific, measurable knowledge and performance
objectives based on any deficiencies.
Step-2 Instructional design: this process is a process where we decide on, compile and
produce the training programe content, including workbook, exercises, and activities.
Step-3: Validation step: these programes are represented in front of the small representative
audience.
Step-4: Implementation: this step comprises of actually training the targeted employee
group.
Step-5: Evaluation: management assesses the program’s success or failures After all the
assessment they found that if they provide some facilities they the staffs could be very
efficient and those facilities are:
On-the job training: it’s a training which is operated at the sight of the company or training
is carried out the working is running, it is really a effective process played by various well
leading company and this system also played by the Nestle, but it is also a unavoidable risk
because all new staffs can make a mistake or cause a loss to the company, therefore company
plays that system when it’s right to do so. It is effective, when a major leveled employee do a
mistake by mistakenly then, for making an improvement Nestle company plays that system.

20 | P a g e
Local training: these trainings are carried out within the country by reputed training
institution from, Bangladesh slavery and labor training institute and consultant from foreign
training institutes are invited to conduct training. These trainings are usually take place at a
different venue other that the office.
In- house training: these trainings are basically held within the office premises and usually
get conducted by the senior managers who are specialist in different field.
Training about the market survey: company plays a vital role in the market survey by
sending their staff at market and operate a project by management to get the fluency and
efficiency of the staffs.
Overseas training: company provides need based training to the employee through the usage
of appropriate external training instate, which are very often conducted overseas. Most of the
functional trainings are provided by foreign training.
Diversification training: it’s a process of training where staffs work at the different level and
post of the management and identify the efficiency and effectiveness of their work ability.
Off-the job training: this process is also an effective training for internal staffs but it can be
painful and fluctuate staff’s confidence and motivation, because it is quiet time consuming and
costly which bared by company, but in may stages of the efficiency of a company or to make
an efficient staff company may play this training. Where any temporary staff may work for the
company with or without wages and this is actually not a job but binding for the staff to be full
time staff, which is also depends on the performance of the staff.
Apprenticeship training: it is a process by which people become skilled worked through a
combination of classroom instruction and on the job training . it is widely used to train
individuals for many occupations. It traditionally involves having the learner apprentice study
under the tutelage of a master craftsperson.
Computer based training: now a day all most all companies provide training to their staffs
by computers and projectors, this system is so much effective and time saving device. By this,
companies can express their plans, training, what to do and what is restricted by company and
other authorities; it is a total pack of direct communication and training process.
Training and development some employees may have skills from their education or from
previous jobs and therefore need little additional training. Others will need extensive training
how much and kind of training is needed will depend on the type of job involved and the

21 | P a g e
amount of training that has already been given through education and the coerces and the
natural skills of the person employed. This section will be looking primarily at the type of
training provided by organization to their employee. There are various type of training and
those types are:
• Case study involving role play or discussion.
• Use of internal and external communication system.
• Interactive video where the trainee is required to respond- depending upon the
response. The video will follow different sequence.
• Games and outdoor programs can teach a workforce to work in a team.
• Brainstorming
• Group reading
• Small group discussion
• Case study
Performance appraisal
The process of monitoring individual and group performance, and giving helpful feedback for
improvement, is generally called performance appraisal. The purpose of appraisals are:
• Helping the employee to overcome any problems or obstacles to performance.
• Identifying where an employee’s potential for improved performance and greater
challenge could be better fulfilled.
• Setting goals and priorities for further monitoring and development.
The process will look at the employee as an individual, but will also ask how the employee
help the organization to achieve its objectives.
4.2 Finding of Nestle
The assignment was so interesting and complicated to, and for completing this assignment I
and my group has worked very hard, and I needed so many planning to do this, each and every

22 | P a g e
task has different commodity and factors. These not just helped me to doing assignment, i
learned so many important things of administration of an organization and their day to day
activities with relevant examples. For collecting samples and evidence for completing the
assignment, I went so many places and searched via Internet search engine. And for searching
I took help from google.com, ask.com etc. and a overview of it is given below:
4.3 Marketing Intermediaries
The market intermediaries of the company help to advertise, sell and distribute its product to the
end customers. The physical distribution network of the company decides the medium by which
the finished product is delivered to the end customer on time and with safety. This department
also ensures the proper storage of the firm that prevents the product from getting any king of
damage. The marketing service department of the firm helps in the promotion of the product
and acts as a communication channel between the company and customers. It not only
communicates the features of the product to its customers but also get the feedback with the
help of survey, which helps the research and development department to develop a product
according to the need of the customers. The other intermediaries of the company like banks
help to provide the funds to the companies and play an important role in the continuity of the
business. Insurance companies insure the property and the goods of the company against the
risk involved in various operations, buying and selling of the product. Nestle has the differential
advantage of working in a smooth coordination with all its marketing intermediaries which
helps in providing the best and pure food products to its valuable customers in the different
parts of the world.
Customers
The immediate customers of Nestle are retail and grocery stores which provide the products of
the company to the end customers at a reasonable price and a reasonable profit. The end
customers of Nestle are the consumers who consume its wide range of product. The company
has a bright brand image in its big pool of end customers.

23 | P a g e
Competitors
Although Nestle is leader in packaged food industry of Malaysia but the other competitors
who are giving tough competition to Nestle are
• Petra Foods Limited
• Chocoladefabriken Lindt & Spruengli AG
• Yeo Heap Sang Limited
• Mail Dairy Industry Co., Ltd
Nestle has a clear advantage over the above mentioned companies is its presence in Malaysia
for over a century now. Nestle has been able to setup a good and trusted distribution channel
and a huge retail network. The trust worthiness gained by Nestle among the Malaysian people
is build in decades on hard work and quality products and varied range of prices, thus even
after facing stiff competition with the above mentioned companies in chocolates, dairy
products and other packaged food products the company is able to maintain the bottom lines
of its profit and loss statements attractive for its investors and good image in public.
Marketing
The basic marketing strategy of the Nestle was to develop brands for each their product instead
of focusing on making brand value for the entire company, thus never allowing cannibalization
of products and gaining multiple brand value for the entire company. The vision of the
company could be summarized in following statements Be the leading multinational company
in food, nutrition and wellness. Produce and sell world-class products of the highest consistent
quality, reliability and convenience based on business excellence principles throughout our
operations. Maximize the use of good quality local raw materials Be an exemplary employer
with a progressive human resource and social policy; with a management style that is based on
“Management Commitment and People Involvement” Be a responsible corporate citizen,
fulfilling all obligations to Government, shareholders, customers, communities and consumers.
Protect the environment by being committed to environmentally sound business practices, and
taking into account the need to preserve natural resources and save energy. Guarantee that all

24 | P a g e
products manufactured, imported and distributed by Nestlé Malaysia are certified HALAL by
authorized Islamic certification bodies. Deliver shareholder value through the achievement of
sustainable and profitable long-term growth. Adhering to the above vision statements the
company has been able to maintain the marketing and branding unique and ahead of the
competitors.
Macro Environment
Macro environment include following environment of the country.
Political Environment: government of Malaysia has never imposed any political pressure in
fact they have always supported foreign investment and foreign businesses to grow in Malaysia.
As the company is into food and nutrition business they have to just adhere to the laws of food
and nutrition policies of government and constantly provide good quality which is the vision
and mission of the company thus Nestle never faces any problems on political front.
Cultural Environment: Malaysian culture is no doubt of having light food at constant
intervals and young crowd of Malaysia likes to have good nutritional food thus Nestle has great
scope there.
Economic Environment: the disposable income of country and the high living standard of
Malaysia always give better bigger business opportunities for Nestle.
Technological Environment: Malaysia is technologically rich country both in terms of
availability of technology and also the technological work force the highly skilled and educated
manpower is abundant in Malaysia. In case of Nestle and the product offered by the company
these factors do not create much impact in general scenario. However as we have seen the
major events like World War had created a positive impact on the sale of confectionary
products of the company. The culture has some impact in this company as whether the country
has most people as vegetarian or non vegetarian the consumption of milk products is always
there. However the countries where the people are more dependent on milk products are
profitable market for Nestle.

25 | P a g e
Key Success Factors
• Consumer Insight: To sustain success the company must have insight of the customers
changing needs, you have to be dynamic and innovate and Nestle has been able to do
this for last couple of decades.
• Continuous Improvement Programs: Continuous improvement includes innovation in
launching new products but equally important is improvement in quality to be better
than competitors, improvement in distribution channel which will help Nestle to be at
the top.
• Regionalization: the regionalization means the regionalization of products and raw
resources procurement which means that the company will run like independent entity
in each divided region with its own targets and resources.
• Development of People: Every company’s responsibility is the development of its
employees as that brings good will factor among the employees and which results into
lower attrition and higher productivity.
• Social Responsibility: this is about creating good will among the people where you
operate, about the society which helps and allows you to grow and use its resources and
at last the protection and responsibility regarding environment.
4.4 Media Advertising
TVC
When it comes to TVC advertising, certain advertising tools such as TRP and GRP are use to
select specific programs. For example, since the GRP is high for TV programs such as popular
drama, and evening news, NIDO ads are aired during these programs. In terms of frequency,
NIDO ads will be aired in all 12 months in 2006 and were aired in 9 months in the previous air.
Newspaper
Two things are considered in selecting specific newspapers for NIDO ad-circulation and a
subjective evaluation of which type of newspapers, specific NIDO target audience might read.
In the last couple of year’s newspapers like “Prothom Alo”, “The Daily Star”, “Jonokontho”

26 | P a g e
and “Jugantor” have received the most NIDO ads. In the case of magazines, the most widely
ones used for NIDO ads include “Shaptahik 2000” and “Annodin”. However, in terms of
frequency, print ads are used less frequently than compared to that of TVC’s. The reason is that
print ads have less reach and ad/message recall among target audience. So print ads have only
been used when there has been a requirement to communicate detail nutritional information and
facts on NIDO and how it scientifically helps children grow.
Place Advertising
Place advertising has the objectives of increasing brand visibility and TOM awareness.
However, less focus is given on this aspect since NIDO awareness among potential target
market is quite high. Therefore, little is invested in this area. As of now, there is only one NIDO
billboard, which located in the capital city. In total, there are 28 NIDO shop signs located
around the country.
Point-of-sales Advertising
POP advertising campaigns are carried out on numerous occasions through out the year. POP
campaign acts as supporting advertisement when there is any new product launched and when
there are any trade promotions. During trade promotions, retailers tend to stock up more than
usual quantity of products and hence the POP materials are used to assist the product off-take
from the retail shelves. POP materials are also used during trade display contests. The contents
invites retailers to accumulate points on the number of product purchase, placement on shelf
and proper and creative use of POP materials such as trade posters, shelf-talkers, buntings and
danglers. In addition, product display units are given out to large and potential outlets through
the year in order to create distinct and greater product visibility in trade.
4.5 SWOT Analysis
Strengths
• Company’s name Nestle specifies the quality image high standard and quality product
• Loyalty from customers is also the major strength for the company
• Employees are also loyal due to the decentralized culture of the company
• People trust on products due to proper health and safety measures

27 | P a g e
• The strength of Nestle confectionary is its imported chocolates and candies, which
strengthens its image
• Being a multinational company it has the capability to attract more customers than the
local companies
• Company has the ability to compete in a dynamic environment
• Company always adapt the new technology
Weaknesses
• There is not much margins for retailers to prefer it’s sales.
• They need to improve the facilities like chillers.
• The distribution cost is high as compared to the competition in the local market.
• Company mostly advertises its milk products, advertisement of confectionary products is
