Political Factors Budget 2011 – 12 • Government signifies the importance of improvement in retailing capacity of fruits • Ascertains the fact that 40 per cent of the fruit and vegetable production in India goes waste due to lack of storage, cold chain and transport infrastructure • Government regulated mandis prevent retailers from integrating their enterprises directly with the farmers
Shelf life: • Regulation on use of preservatives meant for enhancing shelf life • The Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954: Central government specifies a list of permissible preservatives, other than common salt and sugar to be used in fruit products as well as the maximum amounts of each preservative • In case of imported goods, valid shelf life/ residual shelf life should not be less than 60% of their original shelf life License • All fruit processing units require license under the Fruits Product Order, 1955 (FPO) • Contains specifications and quality control requirements regarding production and marketing of processed fruits Regulation on the category ‗Juice Drink‘ • No specific guidelines for „Juice Drink‟ category Packaging labels • The Standards of Weights and Measures Act, 1976, and • Standards of Weights and Measures (Packaged Commodities) Rules, 1977: • To be displayed: Nature of the commodity, Name and Address of the Manufacturer, Net Quantity, Date of Manufacture, and Sale Price Price disclosure Sale Price to be mentioned as per the Standards of Weights and Measures (Packaged Commodities) Rules, 1977 Environmental issues: Environment Protection Act, 1986: An Act to provide for the protection and improvement of environment Legal Issues
Technological Factors • Quality Control: • Freshness and quality of the expressed fruit juice is central to the quality of the final product • As soon as juice is expressed from the fruit it starts to deteriorate as a result of chemical activity and bacterial spoilage • Quick bottling is essential to reduce chances of contamination • Temperature and time of heating are critical to the taste, shelf life and color of juice • The use of the correct amount of chemical preservatives in fruit drinks needs technological precision • The final juice is evaluated on number of criteria like acidity, citrus oil level, pulp level, pulp cell integrity, color, viscocity, mouth feel, microbiological contamination and taste • Establishment of cold chain facilities is vital to maintain the quality of juice • The future processing improvements likely to come from the use of computer controlled sizing and grading of fruit

Once entering in India, focus on extensive distribution of the new product 2. Only big Players like Dabur, Pepsi, Coke, HUL, Parle have been able to sustain in such a competitive juice industry 2. Kraft‘s already existing distribution network in coordination with Iceberg‘s core competency can be a game changer in the juice market 3. Gift giving trend is on a growth stage. Kraft Food‘s Cadbury has very well cashed on this concept. Ex. Celebrations 3. Gift markets can be the different way out to cater to the particular section of people who believe in this gifting culture Trade Channel Analysis: Summary 4. Food Chain stores and restaurants & bars generally tie up with some juice player. For Ex: Pepsico + Pan India Foods Solutions  Tropicana Mocktail Bar 4.

It might take time to earn trust of the customers and make them switch to Capri Sun Juices. Opportunities Threats Juice Industry is an emerging market. Indians are becoming more conscious and are focusing more on health drinks and juices Serious competition can be expected from a newly emerging player Maa Fruits Pvt Ltd. SWOT Analysis ( based on all previous slides )
C 1. Trade 2. Iceberg Foods Limited 3. SWOT Analysis 4. Key Challenges and Growth Drivers
Key Challenges / Risks Growth Drivers / Actions 1. Competition from established players in the juice market is going to make the loyal customers tough to switch to a completely new brand 1. To promote the product range good consideration should be made to wholesalers and retailers. More retailers and consumer based schemes should be introduced and special emphasis should be given children based schemes because children mainly consume the fruit juices right from the launch 2. Packaged drinks perceived to be hygienic but have lower fruit content; stress on nutritional value 2. Differentiate as having higher fruit content than competition; more fruit more nutrition; true fruit juice as against fruit based drinks Summary: Capri-Sun Key Challenges & Growth Drivers

  • 7.
    Shelf life: • Regulationon use of preservatives meant for enhancing shelf life • The Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954: Central government specifies a list of permissible preservatives, other than common salt and sugar to be used in fruit products as well as the maximum amounts of each preservative • In case of imported goods, valid shelf life/ residual shelf life should not be less than 60% of their original shelf life License • All fruit processing units require license under the Fruits Product Order, 1955 (FPO) • Contains specifications and quality control requirements regarding production and marketing of processed fruits Regulation on the category ‗Juice Drink‘ • No specific guidelines for „Juice Drink‟ category Packaging labels • The Standards of Weights and Measures Act, 1976, and • Standards of Weights and Measures (Packaged Commodities) Rules, 1977: • To be displayed: Nature of the commodity, Name and Address of the Manufacturer, Net Quantity, Date of Manufacture, and Sale Price Price disclosure Sale Price to be mentioned as per the Standards of Weights and Measures (Packaged Commodities) Rules, 1977 Environmental issues: Environment Protection Act, 1986: An Act to provide for the protection and improvement of environment Legal Issues

    Technological Factors • QualityControl: • Freshness and quality of the expressed fruit juice is central to the quality of the final product • As soon as juice is expressed from the fruit it starts to deteriorate as a result of chemical activity and bacterial spoilage • Quick bottling is essential to reduce chances of contamination • Temperature and time of heating are critical to the taste, shelf life and color of juice • The use of the correct amount of chemical preservatives in fruit drinks needs technological precision • The final juice is evaluated on number of criteria like acidity, citrus oil level, pulp level, pulp cell integrity, color, viscocity, mouth feel, microbiological contamination and taste • Establishment of cold chain facilities is vital to maintain the quality of juice • The future processing improvements likely to come from the use of computer controlled sizing and grading of fruit

To promote the product range good consideration should be made to wholesalers and retailers. More retailers and consumer based schemes should be introduced and special emphasis should be given children based schemes because children mainly consume the fruit juices right from the launch 2. Packaged drinks perceived to be hygienic but have lower fruit content; stress on nutritional value 2. Differentiate as having higher fruit content than competition; more fruit more nutrition; true fruit juice as against fruit based drinks Summary: Capri-Sun Key Challenges & Growth Drivers
