Existing Rivalry
• Amul Dairy is
one of the
leading company
in this
competitive
industry with a
number of
strong rivals like
Unilever, Kraft
foods and Group
DANONE.
Threat of New
Entrants
• There is low risk
of new entrants
to Amul Dairy as
it has quite big
network of
distribution
worldwide
dominating with
well-reputed
image.
Bargaining Power
of Suppliers
• In the food and
beverage
industry, Amul
Dairy owes the
largest share of
market needing
greater number
of supply chains.
• In reaction, Amul
Dairy has also
been concerned
for its suppliers
as it believes in
long-term
relations.
Bargaining Power
of Buyers
• Thus, Amul Dairy
makes sure to
keep its
consumers
satisfied.
• This has actually
led Amul Dairy
to be one of the
devoted
company in eyes
of its purchasers.
Threat of
Substitutes
• There has been a
terrific risk of
replacements as
there are
alternatives of
some of the
Nestlé's items
such as boiled
water and
pasteurized milk.
Porters Five Forces
BCG Matrix
CASH COWS:
• There are three products of Amul that fall under cash cow category, the first being Amul Milk and the
second being Amul Butter and third is Amul Cheese.
• The products hold high market share in these not so fast-growing industries.
• Owing to the limited chances of industry growth, Amul is introducing a number of new product
variations for different customer segments so as to maintain its market leadership.
• For Example: Apart from its basic version of Butter and Milk, Amul also launched, Amul Butter Lite,
Amul Tazza Milk and Amul Gold Milk to target customers who are more health conscious.
STARS:
• Amul Ice cream and Amul Ghee are two products that can be considered as Stars of the company.
These are the products which have a high market share and holds a good potential to grow in the
future as well.
Cont.
QUESTION MARK:
• Amul lassi has been marketed with the aim to increase the market share and compete with the other
beverages available to the market.
• Considering the increasing interest and demand for healthy products and beverages, the healthy milk
from Amul poses a great potential to grow in the near future with a condition that it is marketed well.
DOGS:
• Dogs are those products that have low growth or market share and have a very limited chance of
growing into a profitable business unit for the company.
• Amul Chocolates, Amul Cookies, and Amul Pizza are few products which can be considered as Dogs
for Amul.
• Due to the heavy competition and limited innovation that these product categories face, it’s becoming
difficult for Amul to gain market share for these products and make them a viable revenue generator.
