5. FACTS OF THE CASE
• Acquisition of Nutrine by Godrej Beverages & Foods Ltd (GBFL). While it
gives the company a ready entry into the organized confectionery market,
the decline in the category's growth has made Godrej more aggressive in
the segment soon after the takeover.
• It has already taken a decision to launch a new brand, Maha Maha Lacto,
on the strength of Nutrine's existing Maha Lacto brand. This double Maha
will be priced at Re 1 and will be twice the weight of the existing brand.
• There are more products lined up, such as `Choco Roll', which is currently
being test-marketed in Tamil Nadu.
• According to A. Mahendran, Director, GBFL, "" There are expected to be
synergistic benefits from acquiring the brand, which include media buying
and distribution and sales strategy.
