1.3 A Brief Insight - The FMCG Industry in India
Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), also known as Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) is
products that have a quick turnover and relatively low cost. Consumers generally put less
thought into the purchase of FMCG than they do for other products.
The Indian FMCG industry witnessed significant changes through the 1990s. Many players
had been facing several problems on account of increased competition from small and
regional players and from slow growth across its various product categories. As a result, most
of the companies were forced to revamp their product, marketing, distribution and customer
service strategies to strengthen their position in the market.
By the turn of the 20th century, the face of the Indian FMCG industry had changed
significantly. With the liberalization and growth of the Indian economy, the Indian customer
witnessed an increasing exposure to new domestic and foreign products through different
media, such as television and the Internet. Apart from this, social changes such as increase in
the number of nuclear families and the growing number of working couples resulting in
increased spending power also contributed to the increase in the Indian consumers' personal
consumption.
The realization of the customer's growing awareness and the need to meet changing
requirements and preferences on account of changing lifestyles required the FMCG
producing companies to formulate customer-centric strategies. These changes had a positive
impact, leading to the rapid growth in the FMCG industry. Increased availability of retail
space, rapid urbanization, and qualified manpower also boosted the growth of the organized
retailing sector.
HLL led the way in revolutionizing the product, market, distribution and service formats of
the FMCG industry by focusing on rural markets, direct distribution, creating new product,
distribution and service formats. The FMCG sector also received a boost by government led

initiatives in the 2003 budget such as the setting up of excise free zones in various parts of the
country that witnessed firms moving away from outsourcing to manufacturing by investing in
the zones.
Though the absolute profit made on FMCG products is relatively small, they generally sell in
large numbers and so the cumulative profit on such products can be large. Unlike some
industries, such as automobiles, computers, and airlines, FMCG does not suffer from mass
layoffs every time the economy starts to dip. A person may put off buying a car but he will
not put off having his dinner.
Unlike other economy sectors, FMCG share float in a steady manner irrespective of global
market dip, because they generally satisfy rather fundamental, as opposed to luxurious needs.
The FMCG sector, which is growing at the rate of 9% is the fourth largest sector in the Indian
Economy and is worth Rs.93000 cr. The main contributor, making up 32% of the sector, is
the South Indian region. It is predicted that in the year 2010, the FMCG sector will be worth
Rs.143000 cr. The sector being one of the biggest sectors of the Indian Economy provides up
to 4 million jobs.
The FMCG sector consists of the following categories:
1.3.1 Personal Care
Oral care, Hair care, Wash (Soaps), Cosmetics and Toiletries, Deodorants and
Perfumes, Paper products (Tissues, Diapers, Sanitary products) and Shoe care; the
major players being; Hindustan Lever Limited, Godrej Soaps, Colgate, Marico, Dabur

1.4 A Brief Insight - Beverage Industry in India
In India, beverages form an important part of the lives of people. It is an industry, in which
the players constantly innovate, in order to come up with better products to gain more
consumers and satisfy the existing consumers.

The beverage industry is vast and there various ways of segmenting it, so as to cater the right
product to the right person. The different ways of segmenting it are as follows:
 Alcoholic, non-alcoholic and sports beverages.
 In-home consumption and out of home on premises consumption.
 Age wise segmentation i.e. beverages for kids, for adults and for senior citizens.
 Segmentation based on the amount of consumption i.e. high levels of consumption
and low levels of consumption.
If the behavioral patterns of consumers in India are closely noticed, it could be observed that
consumers perceive beverages in two different ways i.e. beverages are a luxury and that
beverages have to be consumed occasionally. These two perceptions are the biggest
challenges faced by the beverage industry. In order to leverage the beverage industry, it is
important to address this issue so as to encourage regular consumption as well as and to make
the industry more affordable.
Four strong strategic elements to increase consumption of the products of the beverage
industry in India are:
 The quality and the consistency of beverages needs to be enhanced so that consumers
are satisfied and they enjoy consuming beverages.
 The credibility and trust needs to be built so that there is a very strong and safe feeling
that the consumers have while consuming the beverages.
 Consumer education is a must to bring out benefits of beverage consumption whether
in terms of health, taste, relaxation, stimulation, refreshment, well-being or prestige
relevant to the category.
 Communication should be relevant and trendy so that consumers are able to find an
appeal to go out, purchase and consume.
 The beverage market has still to achieve greater penetration and also a wider spread of
distribution. It is important to look at the entire beverage market, as a big opportunity,
for brand and sales growth in turn to add up to the overall growth of the food and
beverage industry in the economy.

standards achieved are positive as well negative. These standards are discussed with the
employees so that they come to know about their strengths and weakness. Also the reason are

4.3.2.1 Washing Stage
Production process starts with the loading of empty bottles in the washing machine. Before
that empty bottles are taken from the carat and are placed on the conveyor which reaches the
washing machine bottles are arranged properly and enters the machine in lots of 10 bottles. In
the washing machine bottles are passing through 4 compartments.
In the 1st
compartment all the dust and sand is removed with plain water.
In the 2nd
compartment the oil, bacteria, etc are removed with chlorine water.
In the 3rd
compartment bottles gets washed with caustic solution.
In the 4th
compartment the second time bottles are washed with plain water.
After the bottles are washed, they are moved for the next stage.
4.3.2.2 Inspection Stage
In the stage, the 2 time bottles are inspected.
1st
time the empty bottles are inspected.
2nd
time filled inspection is done.
If any defect is found then the bottles is disposed and other bottles are allowed to move for
the next stage.
4.3.2.3 Filling and Capping Stage
The filling and sealing of bottles is done on filling and crimping machine. It is a combined
activity. The bottles are conveyed to filler machine on conveyor. The filler machine keeps on
revolving. It fills the beverage in the bottles and sends it to crimping machine where the
bottles are sealed with a crown. If the operator finds the improper level, he level the bottles
manually and let go the bottles for crowning and then for the next stage.
4.3.2.4 Final Inspection Stage
After crowning the bottles are checked again whether there is any dirt left. One person checks
the bottles after crowning in light. If any impurity is found the bottle is immediately disposed
off and rests of the bottles are sends at store.

4.4 Plant Location
As we know that the company does the production of the soft drink so the production is done
on mass basis. As the production is done on the mass basis it will have product layout. So the
business requires certain minimum volume. Therefore it is big layout. So the number of
people required, machine required will be large.
Here in the production process syrup making machine is used from which smoke comes out
so it is placed on 2nd
floor. Similarly the brix making machine is also placed near to syrup
making machine as this machine produce heat.
The company is in the industrial area so this also effects the plant location. As there are male
and female workers and employees there are separated toilets, changing rooms. There is
different water cooler drinking cooler in production, administration, office areas.
There is store room for raw material which is underground of production department. There
is a separate store area for the finished product at the back side of production area. In the
production process co2, citric acid, etc. this gas are dangerous to health so the production area
is separated than other department.
As this is mass production unit some decision are taken in advance regarding layout. The
production process is machine base so in future if new machine is installed then it requires
large space. So all this is taken care.
The company has truck and tempo for delivery the finished goods to the retailers. For these
vehicles there is a separate office for finance department, human resource department, and
administration office which include reception area.

There are many other general factors which affect the plant location. For e.g. if the plant is
located outside the city then the company have to pay octroi for their products, various taxes,
arrange for labor transportation facilities, some cottages and house for their living and regular
storage of raw material but if plant is located within the city they have to pay less octroi, less
transportation expense, 24 hours availability of electricity, easy distribution of goods in less
time and availability of raw material.
First it was in Zampa Bazaar but because of problems in transportation and conjunction they
shifted their plant in Hazira Road that is in industrial area. In this area they get 24 hours
electricity and water facility, availability of material and easy transportation which are
beneficial to company.

4.6 Material Handling
The company uses different types of material handling equipment like Conveyors, Trolley,
Pipelines, Carats and Trucks. It can be further explained as below:
4.6.1 Conveyor
The company has different types of conveyors to carry the bottles to be processed into
different machines. Right from starting of production process the bottles are moved to the
next process through conveyor. Company has motor driven conveyor that has one metallic
belt on the rolling wheels and those conveyor that works on gravity i.e. no electric motor is
needed to run them.
4.6.2 Pipelines
Pipeline is also treated as material handling equipment as it carry and gaseous material. It is
used to transfer the carbon dioxide from cylinder in the manufacturing unit where it is
compressed to make it in the liquid form, then to shift it in the mixer where all the materials
are mixed and then the final liquid is prepared separately is brought from the main syrup tank
to small tank and then to filler machine through pipeline.
4.6.3 Trolleys
Trolleys are mainly used for transferring heavy carats with bottles from the store to the
trucks. Also when the carats are unloaded from trucks and moved from one place to another
trolley is used. For convenience trolleys are manually run by workers to carry heavy loads.
4.6.4 Carats
Carats are a very important material handling equipment as it is used to carry the bottles in
the lot of 24. Carats are mainly used for safety purpose so as to prevent the breakage of
bottles. So when the bottles are to be taken from one place to another it is kept in carats and
then taken. It is also convenient to carry bottle in group.

4.6.5 Trucks
Trucks can also be considered as the material handling equipment as it is used for
transporting finished products. They carry carats from manufacturing place to the whole
sellers and retailers and also to the port for the export through steamers in the foreign
countries.
4.7 Stores Function
In store function two important procedures are consider. They are material receipt procedure,
material issue procedure.
4.7.1 Material Receipt Procedure
Material receipt procedure begins when the purchase order is placed. The suppliers send the
material within a day or two. Thereafter the material is received and the production manager
is informed. The material received is checked whether it is according to the purchase order.
Firstly the quantity checking is done. Thereafter the quality control manager checks the
quality of the material received and gives information. Sometime there can be material which
cannot be taken for production because it‘s poor quality.
After the confirmation is received from quality control manager, entries for both accepted
and rejected material is done in the register and thereafter all the material is send to the store.
Accepted and rejected material is stored separately. As and when material is requires for
production it is issued and according the entry is done, rejected material is send back to the
supplier and is replaced. Production manager takes the bill does the signature and after all the
process gets completed payment is done.
4.7.2 Material Issue Procedure
The material issue procedure begins with requirement of production in change. Production in
charge tells the production manager the authorized person and thereafter allows the issue of
material. The entry for the material issued is made in the register and that much stock is
deducted from the present stock of materials.

4.8 Purchase Function
Purchase function begins with the preparation of purchase order. Production manager
prepares this purchase order. This purchase order is to the authorized person for checking.
After the authorized person sign the purchase order, order is placed though mail, telephone or
by fax. After receiving purchase order from company supplier checks it with the availability
of material and sends the material within a day or two and informs the company on sending
the material.
On receiving all the material from the supplier, all the material passes through the process of
quantity & quality. After all the material is accepted by the production manager then and then
only the payment is done. Payment is done by cash, cheques or by demand draft. Some
suppliers demand the payment along with the purchase order. So, demand draft is send along
with the purchase order to the suppliers.
4.9 Production Planning
First of the entire production plan is not prepared very formally but it is prepared on basis of
daily sales. At the end of the day when salesman returns to the factory after whole day
selling, report to the supervisor of distributor. These include the total number of sold and
unsold carats. The supervisor then calculates and total number of carats that are sold on
particular day of all salesman. He then gives that calculation to the plant manager. Plant
manager then look after it.
For example
If 50 carats of Sosyo are sold on particular days then manager don‘t start the plant to take
production of 50 carats. So he does the stock of 200 to 300 carats of a particular product and
then does the production. The same is followed for the other entire product (Kashmira,
Lemee, Soda, etc.) here the production is done in batch using manner and each batch contains
minimum of 200 carats but in exception case it can be low. Also if there is any additional
order (party order, marriage order, inauguration order etc.) on the basis of this production
plan is prepaid. Such orders are also important because it is in the big lot.

4.11 Inventory Control
In Hajoori & Sons, ABC Analysis technique is used for controlling the inventory. Usually a
firm has to maintain the several types of inventory. It is not desirable to keep the same degree
of control on all the items. The Hajoori & Sons play the maximum attention to those items

effort in controlling. The firm is selecting and its approach to control investment in various
types of inventory. It uses the analytical approach, which is called ABC Analysis.
In large companies, the inventory consists of thousands of items and a number of employed
to control them. Their salaries and other expenses run into lakhs of rupees. It has been found

of total number of items. This item requires strict control over receipt, storage and issue
should be exercise over such items. As ―A‖ class of items require very less time for inventory
but the company maintains low stock of inventory for all items. The ―A‖ class of the item
includes Sugar, Citric Acid, Sodium Benzoate used in beverage and CO2 used only in Soda.
All these items have major value wise contribution. So are including in ―A‖ class of item.
B-class of items:
In the ―B‖ class of items the major material consists of 25% of consumption value and 20%
of the total number of item. It includes ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), Oil Grease, Lubricants,
Spare Parts of machine and maintenance cost.

& Sons buys some goods on cash and some cash on credits. Some suppliers ask for
the draft along with the purchase order while some supplier gives the credit period,

is ensure if there is fluctuation of demand. On the other hand, finance manager wishes to keep
average stock because according to him, inventory blocks the money and which does not earn
interest.

Marketing is a societal process by which individuals and group obtain what they need and
want through creating, communicating, offering and freely exchanging product and services
of value with others. For a managerial definition, marketing is often described as ‗Art of
Selling product‘. But people are surprised when they hear that the most important part of
marketing is not selling! Selling is not only the tip of the marketing iceberg.
The marketing concept holds that the key to achieving its organizational goals consists of the
company being more effective than competitors in creating, delivering and communicating
superior customer value to its chosen target market.

also age which plays an important role in the demand of the product.
6.4.1.2 Economic Environment

economy depends on current incomes, savings, debts and credit availability. Similarly Sosyo
considers the incomes, Savings, debts and credit availability of the consumers. Hence,
depending on the type of the market in a particular area, marketing is done accordingly.
6.4.1.3 Natural Environment
Marketers need to be aware of the threats and opportunities associated with four trends in
natural environment: the shortage of raw material, especially water; increased cost of energy;
increased pollution levels; and the changing role of governments. In the same way Sosyo is
also aware of the threats and opportunities which are associated with the trends in natural
environment.

6.4.1.4 Technological Environment
One of the most dramatic forces shaping people‘s lives is technology. The marketers should

6.8.2 Price
6.8.2.1 Pricing Policy
Deciding the pricing policy is an important decision in any organization. As usual every firm
sets the price for its product or service whether it is manufacturing or service firm. Financial
managers with the help of the production and other department set up the price. Generally
pricing policy is decided after considering several factors.
Company decides per unit price of product by following formula:
Here, variable costs are raw material cost, administration cost, packing cost and distribution
cost.
Here, fixed costs are processing cost and machinery cost.

6.8.2.2 Price Setting
Prices are set by input valuation, considering production activity cost, cost of raw material,
buffer margin, other cost and profit margin. Sometimes due to uncertainty in sugar prices,
transportation cost, etc. costs also increases. To avoid such situation, the company keeps a
margin on its product prices before adding profit margin.
A lot of research regarding prevailing price of the product in market is done. Before deciding
price of the product, competitor‘s price and offers also considered.
For example, on 500 ml bottle of Sosyo, 100 ml free. Once the company enters the
competitor‘s area a long chain of customers is established.
Company offers discount to customers if they are competitor‘s customers having a very good
relationship with the company. Price discount are based on sales volume i.e. number of
bottles a customer or agent or shopkeeper purchases. There is no fixed discount percentage
decided. Prices are mostly very stable. Frequent fluctuation does not occur, as it is a
competitive market. If a price of raw materials such as sugar increases, the company does not
increase its final price in spite of margin are reduced.
Customers need to advance before hand and remaining payment on the delivery of the
bottles. In case of good reputation of customers, the payment is delayed for a certain period
decided by the director. Hajoori & Sons give 15% credit period. The company holds a very
stable pricing policy with frequent fluctuations.
