Unilever Pakistan is introducing a new ice cream product line called "Diletto Carnation" made solely from cow's milk. It will initially offer 3 flavors: strawberry, vanilla and chocolate. The product is positioned as healthier than other ice creams due to its low sugar content from the cow's milk. It will target posh markets since the cost will be higher than competitors like Wall's. A letter authorizes a report on Unilever's sales territory and time management practices, focusing on their tools, techniques and processes.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Wall’s Heart brand stands for a good honest scoop of pleasure. Its philosophy is to
be an evangelist of pleasure: “A day without pleasure is a day lost.”
Wall’s is sold in more than 40 countries making it the most widely available ice cream
worldwide. Unilever is the global leader of ice cream manufacturing with almost 18% of
the global market share. And in Pakistan we have a new product line to introduce for
the consumer which is 100% made of pure cow’s milk and which provides the ultimate
amount of nutritions which no other sort of ice cream can provide. First time an Ice
cream Product line “Delitto Carnation” which will be completely depending on the
informative and awareness marketing strategy is a risk worth taking as in the current

8. 8 | P a g e
economic situation business are booming in every stable strong industry and Walls is
one of them
Walls have always tried to keep up its good work and maintain its name. Its team work
in every aspect of the business has a symbol for all other ice creams brands. Not only in
advertising, distribution but in its territory management. Walls sales structure is Product
based and Region based. The business is carried out fewer than two heads namely
General Trade and Ice Cream. General Trade covers all cosmetics and other stuff while
Ice Creams have its entire product. The territories of the distribution of ice cream are
divided in to 4 regions namely Karachi, Multan, Lahore and Islamabad. The Karachi
Region is governed by two territory sales managers, one of them is Mr Khan.
Hyderabad, Sukkur, Quetta and Rohri are also seen by him. His team comprises of Area
managers, Supervisors and the Sales Force. Whereas the hierarchy followed in his
department (to whom he reports) starts from the Regional Sales Manager followed by
Area Sales Manager then Territory Sales Manager.
Walls have different key accounts which vary from restaurants to cafés, universities to
schools, departmental stores to kiryanas. All of these accounts are given special services
so that they may increase their sales volume and reach targets. Walls give special
services to its accounts which are crucial in locations but generate huge sales volume.
Their problems are solved within six hours and the shop keepers are offered incentives
and discounts.
Sales force spends 15 minutes on average at every outlet taking orders and problem
solving. sales representatives devote their time effectively and efficiently in servicing
their customers and attaining new accounts. Thus territory management is handled in a
very perfect and efficient manner. Their teamwork has resulted so much lucrative that
at the moment they do not need any more territories. Walls cover 98% of Karachi. The
territory is a whole universe for them. Thus territory management is mandatory for all
FMCG companies.

UNILEVER PAKISTAN
INTRODUCTION:
No matter who you are, or where in the world you are, the chances are that our products
are a familiar part of your daily routine. Every day, around the world, people reach for
Unilever products.
The Unilever Pakistan Limited (UPL), formerly Lever Brothers Pakistan Limited was
established in Pakistan in 1948. The town of Rahim Yar Khan was the site chosen for
setting up a vegetable oil factory. Unilever Pakistan is the largest fast-moving consumer
goods (FMCG) company in Pakistan, as well as one of the largest multinationals
operating in the country, now operating six factories at different locations around the
country. The Unilever's Head Office was shifted to Karachi from the Rahim Yar Khan
site in the mid 60's
INTRODUCTION TO WALL’S
The Wall’s Heart brand stands for a good honest scoop of pleasure. Its philosophy is to
be an evangelist of pleasure: “A day without pleasure is a day lost.”
Wall's - Global Leader
Wall’s is sold in more than 40 countries making it the most widely available ice cream
worldwide. Unilever is the global leader of ice cream manufacturing with almost 18% of
the global market share.
Adding Vitality to Life

10. 10 | P a g e
With customers becoming more health conscious, Wall’s has also taken a conscious step
to providing healthier and nutritious products. Wall’s innovation centre in UK is
constantly working on making healthier products by reducing the fat content in the
products yet offering the same great taste. Even on Kids’ products, Wall’s is striving to be
the better choice by lowering sugar content and introducing nutrient rich offerings like
Moo which has calcium equal to one glass of milk.
History of the Heart brand
Though Unilever has been selling ice cream for decades, the Heart brand was launched
world wide in 1999. The Heart brand logo is common to every country and has come to
be synonymous with quality treats. Wall’s operates under different names in different
markets (Wall's in the UK and most parts of Asia, Algida in Italy, Langnese in Germany,
Kibon in Brazil, and Ola in the Netherlands).
Wall's Pakistan
Wall’s came to Pakistan in 1995 establishing the Wall’s factory on Multan Road in
Lahore. Fully equipped with state of the art machinery, the Wall’s factory is a standard of
hygiene and technology in the region and has become synonymous with quality. In 1998
Wall’s acquired Polka, a local ice cream manufacturer. Some of the most popular brands
loved by the masses were now linked to Wall’s; making an irresistible combination that
few could refuse.
Key facts about Wall’s Pakistan:
• Wall’s is the market leader of the Pakistani Ice cream market.
• All Wall’s products are Halal and are made with Halal ingredients in a Halal
compliant manner.
Ice Cream Makes You Happy – Its Official!

11. 11 | P a g e
Wall’s carried out scientific research which shows that ice cream actually makes you
happy. The study was carried out using FMRI brain scanners, and showed that eating
Wall’s had an immediate effect on the part of the brain that is activated when someone
is really enjoying themselves – the pleasure areas.
So we now have scientific evidence to prove what we all already knew, that ice cream
really does make you happy!
Walls Heart brand – Products
Feast was one of the first Products introduced by Wall’s in 1995 and to date remains one
of the most popular treats that Wall’s has to offer. Truly a chocolate lover’s delight, Feast
comprises of 3 layers: a thick chocolate coating with rich chocolate ice cream inside and
a smooth chocolate bar in the centre. In 2009, Feast launched the ‘bite for a bike’
campaign which is widely recognized by consumers as one of the most memorable
campaigns of Feast. Feast awarded the bike, a “Suzuki Boulevard S40”, to Shan Samuel, a
resident of Lahore.
Donut was launched in 2005 and has quickly become one of the most loved products to
date. Donut’s unique shape and quirky packaging makes it a favorite with both kids and
adults alike. Boasting a thick chocolate coating with a generous sprinkling of peanuts
and a premium vanilla ice cream inside, Donut satisfies the hunger and the ice cream
urge alike.
Jet Sport and Choc Bar were acquired by Walls in 1998 with the acquisition of Polka.
These are two of Walls most popular brands to date.The following team has been bought

Corporate Strategy
We will be focusing on three main types of corporate strategies that is growth, stability
and renewal strategies.
1. GROWTH STRATEGY
For growth strategy ones technology should be higher when to be compared with the
competitors, our unique product of cow’s milk completely beats every competitor on the basis
of nutritions and quality. As advancement in the quality as well as technology will increase the
strength of our products and increases the market shar once penetrated in the market.
2. RENEWAL STRATEGIES
RENEWAL STRATEGIES SHOULD BE CONSIDER TO EXCHANGE IDEAS IN BETWEEN THE PRODUCTS WITH
DIFFERENT SHAPES CHARACTERISTICS AND CONTINUING THE CONSISTENCY IN TASTE AND QUALITY FOR
THE CONSUMERS FOR E.G “THE BIG THREE” THE FAMOUS WALLS PRODUCT WHICH HAD BEEN CHANGED
3 TIMES INTO “BIGGER THREE” & “PANDA” WITH THE SAME FLAVOURS OF CHOCOLATE VANILLA AND
STRAWBERRY HAD BEEN THE LEADER OF A CERTAIN TARGET MARKET WHOSE BUYING POWER WAS
LIMITED TO 15-20 RUPEES FROM 1997-2005.

17. 17 | P a g e
3. MANAGING AND EVALUATION OF STRATEGIES
Managing and evaluation of strategies will be very crucial as the product is unique and might be possible
of a competition later in the future if not captured the market strongly with the new range of products.
How ever evaluation will be completed after the initial 6 months when the target is set on capturing 3%
of the market in the start.
Marketing Plan
Our products are made from high quality cows milk and firstly we would be making litters
pack for families and we would be targeting only the niche market at first. When we get the
result and the market gets educated we will be coming for the mass market and . In order to
achieve our growth plans, we need to keep sharp eye on market conditions and introduce the
product with appropriate marketing and sales team with a good amount of marketing budget
so that initially we would be able to survive te market and then achieve our goals to introduce
ice crem for the mass market.
THE MARKETING ENVIRONMENT
Micro economic environment
COMPETITORS
We don’t have the same competetors that are making ice cream with cows milk but initially we have
movenpick and hagen daz as a competitor for the nieche market. While going to the mass market our
competitor is omore and hico.
Customers

18. 18 | P a g e
Initially our customers are a niche those people are health conscious and who want to try
something new as cow milk has much more nutrients and has a better taste. With the name of
unilever it is easy for us to capture market share as we are an old anr reputed name in the
market.
DISTRIBUTORS
We have distribution channels all over Pakistan for walls we would be using the same but we would be
emphasizing more on those retaile stores where our target market comes.
suppliers
initially we have to find areas where we would be able to find cows milk and we will set up contracts
with them to purchase cows milk weekly to fulfill our needs. We have our procurement departmentbut
it collects buffelos milk but now we need cows milk so we need to find new suppliers . When our
product starts being successful we will have our own dairy farm to ensure that the milk we use in our
farms is of the finest quality and if free from any kind of mixing.
Macro economic factors
I. Political Factors
Until and unless the government puts some kind of restriction on the consumption of
cows milk there are no problems in procurement and making icecream out of it.
II. Legal Regulations
Our name is so unique that it would have no copy right issues and medicaly it will be
tested and we will get it approved from Islamic scholars that the product we are using
is halal.
III. Technological
Initially we would be importing a small plant which we will increase gradually when we reach
into the mass market. So that we have the latest equipment and the best plant in the country.

19. 19 | P a g e
SWOT ANALYSIS
Strength:
Healthy
Can be consumed by suger patients as the sugar content will be very low
Rich and creamy
Brand name WaLLS
Weaknesses:
Non availability of cows milk
Limited places to be kept at innitially
Targeting a limited market

20. 20 | P a g e
Threats:
Hico is making full cream buffalo ice cream that has a similar taste but our prices are high.
Opportunities:
 Range of the products can be increased for kids
 The biggest opportunity for the company are kids
 A change in population, an increase in population
 The brand unilever it self is a big opportunity as the brand is known internationally.
 We offering in litre packs and we will try to overcome the mass markets after
accomplish the initial
TARGET MARKETS
Our target market is a niech and we will devide our market into three segments youth, helth
coutiounous and adults who want healthy alternate of icecream for their children which is full of energy
and nutrients.
Our market is segmented on these basis
 Demographics
 Income group
 Awareness
 Youth

21. 21 | P a g e
MARKETING OBJECTIVES
To create awareness and generate maximum sales and go into mass market quickly. Promote the health
benefits of consuming cows milk. Reach into mass market by 2016 and capture maximum amount of
market share and maintain it. Nish markets target on basis of health to gain market share
MARKETING CHALLENGES
After the success of Cart’e dOr in Pakistan with a persuasive marketing strategy the biggest
marketing challenge would be the informative awareness of the new product line which has its main
objective to clarify the targeted consumer about the nutrition which are being provided in our new set
of products.
MARKET RESEARCH
Primary research consists of a collection of original primary data collected by the researcher. It is
often undertaken after the researcher has gained some insight into the issue by reviewing secondary
research or by analyzing previously collected primary data
Secondary research (also known as desk research) involves the summary, collation and/or
synthesis of existing research rather than primary research, where data is collected from, for
example, research subjects or experiments
Dependant Variables
Dependant variable does always comes with an independent variable in our product the
independent variable is the main ingredient which is cows milk. However our production
depends on the supply of milk and any sort of shortage of supplying problem will be
independent variable in this case which will be strictly avoided.

22. 22 | P a g e
MARKETING MIX
1. PRODUCT
COWS MILK ICE CREAM
Chocolate flavor
Vanilla flavor
Regular flavor
PRICE
Initially high priced as we are targeting a nieche but soon prices wil come down after seeing the
response if positive we would be going into the mass market and our procurement would in much more
quantity which will initially lead to affordable and competitive prices. (pricing strategy)
DISTRIBUTION
With regular walls products (territory management)
PACKAGING
Hig grade long lasting cooling packaging so that ice cream doesnot melt quickly as cows milk has a low
melting point.

23. 23 | P a g e
PROMOTION
According to research, consumer marketing of cow milk ice cream will occur via:
 Celebrity endorsement
 Social networking
 Point of Sale displays
 Sales rep near ice cream stands
Apart from online and social media campaign, we would be setting up stalls in various places
such as aghas dolmen mall , mottas naheed shazz and amies etc.
Sales Plan
The sales plan will include continuous modification as the product upwards in its life cycle.
Sales objective consist of setting quotas for each sales team and the focus will be on improving
skills and productivity through training. It also involves, sales force and personal sellers to work
in to coordination with the marketing department as a primary source of information for
market condition. We will be more focused on territory management, training, retention of
workers.
TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT

24. 24 | P a g e
Training is provided on several occasions: When a new product launch is upcoming, refresher courses
for new sales recruits, as well as training in the form of supervision/observation whereby sales managers
accompany sales reps on their visits and observe their pitches and methodology, providing assistance
and rectification wherever needed.
Evidently, all levels of employees receive more or less the same amount of annual training. However, a
slightly greater amount of significance is given to sales reps (as their job duties require a considerably
greater skill set than an average sales rep) and area or field managers (as their skills, abilities and
knowledge in turn impact the eventual productivity and performance of their subordinates as well as
their ability to offer direction, support and guidance.)
Retention is a major aspect that needs to be focused as we are introducing a new product our
sales initially would be low so we have to motivate the employees by giving them non monetary
benefits and give them more time to achieve sale quota and allocate more sales budget as the
new product is totally different from the rest of the products.
CHALLENGES
Following are the challenges prevailing over productivity of sales:
1. HIGH TURNOVER RATE AT THE LOWER LEVEL IN THE COMPANY:
The turnover rate at sales representative’s level is really high. The salespeople
are provided with several allowances like travel allowances are given on daily
basis then come the mobile allowances, medical allowance and insurance
allowances. The basic salary of a salesperson is around Rs 10000; moreover,
incentives are given on the basis of performance. If he is an achiever and
achieves more than 100% sales then he might get an incentive of Rs. 10,000 up
20,000 which would increase his monthly salary to Rs. 40,000 maximum but if he
is not an achiever then his salary would be around 15,000 which is not enough as
the prices of petrol ,gas are rising day by day but these allowances remain

25. 25 | P a g e
unchanged. Hence, a person at a sales representative position tends to switch a
lot of jobs which results in the high turnover rate.
2. LACK OF INTEREST BY NEW ENTRANTS :
Another challenge in the field of sales is the lack of interest for new fresh
graduates/entrants. These days B.A or a B.Com pass people apply for a job of a
sales rep. The business graduates who are entering the market do not prefer a job
of a sales representative as the salary is quite low and non-motivating and also
the opportunity to develop and grow is really low and limited.
SALES FORECASTING
Past sales records
Sales Force Composite
Product Life Cycle
Economic Conditions
SALES BUDGET
Initially high and around 20% of the cost of the product. Gradually it will be reduced down when we
enter the mass market.

26. 26 | P a g e
ORGANIZING OF THE SALES FORCE
PHASE I :RECRUITING (WEEKS 1-6)
Where phase 1 is all about icebreaking and getting the sales force familiar with their work
getting the top performers to move ahead of the rest of the pack . market and management
training. The first two week consist of making the newbies aware of the product in depth
analysis by providing all the details, the second two week are all about management training
means all the work of indoors and finally the last two week consists of the outdoor training as
marketing the products in front end consumers.
PHASE II (WEEK 6 AND BEYOND)
In the second phase which starts after the first 6 weeks is the probation period in which we
evaluate the new recruits and selects them for indoor jobs as management and outdoor jobs as
marketing and all the promotions will be awarded to the existing employees on whoms position
will be the newbies working. Eventually after that is will be all about sustaining and growing
with the same procedure. As our company always is and will be aainst a misconception about
sales people which is “Salepeople are born not made”.
TRAINING
Training is conducted regularly to keep staff upto date and motivated we usually have training sessions
and for this product we will have more training sessions on information basis. Our staff is very much
focused on sales and is quiet good at achieving there targets but this new ice cream is a challenge and
we would prefer internal salesperson to conduct training so that this new product is kept secret till its
launch.
Internal employees for training are choosed because of containment of the new brand a secret from the
market as well as the competitor and other than that its employees who are well aware of the
company’s culture and trend to set-up a new breed in new recruitments of their own

27. 27 | P a g e
SALES STAFF
Individual’s career cycle is the career stage where a salesperson goes through. There are four
stages:
 Preparation
Preparing and managing one’s self to be used to work in a specific environment which a
well known company like Walls has to offer it’s employees.
 Development
Developing Skills such of strategies and ways to persuade new customers and tackle
new competitors in the market. Achieving the given targets or to surplusing them
reflects the developing stage of an sales person during his/her marketing activities.
 Maturity
Maturity is the stage which is most as a senior position in the staff where an individual
makes and advice decisions relating the a certain situation, with obvious amount of
impact on the decision made in the end.
 Decline
It is the Last stage where the employee is not achieving the performance goals derived
for him under any circumstances is known as Decline which is mostly due to the age
factor as well as rapid change in market due to technology and advancement.
FORMAL SALES PROGRAM
A formal sales program should be well designed in order to be effective.
We answer four critical questions through our formal sales training:
 Which sales people should be trained, and at what points in their career.
He/she should train others
 What should the training program cover

28. 28 | P a g e
Stress reduction n motivate to work hard
 How should the training be done
On the job
 Who should train salespeople, and where does training fit into the organization
Ppl within organization
“ Which sales people should be trained and at what point”
TRAINING NEW SALES PEOPLE
We at unilever have great amount of salesperson on board and we prefer to retain them so we are less
likely to hire new sales person. But if we need to hire new sales person we would give them on the job
training rather then off the job as they are in more need of experience then just knowledge.
RETRAINING EXPERIENCED SALESPEOPLE
What should the training program cover?
Our training program consists of 4 main things which are delivered to the employees in our
training sessions:
 Helth and nutrition benefits
 About milk related allergies
 Selling skills for a unique product
 Attitudes which the employees should have
Who should train sales people and where does it fit in our organization?
Training would usually be done by existing employees of top management and the best sales
person as they are the ones who have the maximum amount of knowledge about there
customer.

29. 29 | P a g e
EVALUATION OF THE SALES FORCE
Evaluation would be done on the basis of achievement of sales quota and retention of large
customers. And considering all the New order achieved by the saleperson and old customer
retainment.
DISTRIBUTION STRATEGIES
There are 2 main strategies that walls have used very efficiently and effectively and these are
• Push strategies
They have provided a lot of incentives for the distributers like free deep freezers, free shop boards and
major discounts on bulk purchases.
• Pull strategies
2Campaigns including vast advertisement that reminds and persuades the buyers which is facilitated by
price offs which are offered by the company on a frequent basis.
2. SALES PROMOTIONAL STRATEGIES
Walls has been doing a number of sales promotional actibities and these include
