Supply and Distribution This department ensures timely and effective distribution of the

PRODUCTION PROCESS Chlling and UHT Pasteurization Pacaging Storage
TreatmentChilling and Storage: The production process at Engro Foods consists of four
steps. Firstly, rawmilk is collected from milk collection centers by tankers and brought to
plants for processing.On arrival, the milk is tested for appearance, smell and temperature,
and a sample is taken foranalysis in laboratories. A series of tests are carried out relating to
the compositional andhygienic quality of the milk. Subject to the satisfactory completion of
these tests, the milk in thetanker is then unloaded into a silo. The milk processing factories
cool the raw milk at a 14
16. 15. temperature of 5C or less into cooling tanks prior to being passed through heattreatment
facilities. The chilling process helps to curb bacterial growth in milk.Pasteurization: Next
comes the pasteurization stage, which is the process of boiling the milk and thenimmediately
cooling it to a lower temperature. The milk is pasteurized at 85 C, which helps tokill 98% of
the germs present in the milk. Pasteurization serves as the separation point of rawmilk into
different products, which include Tarang, Olpers and Olwell. At this point the creamand fat
are removed from the milk and other special ingredients are added along with it to the10
Supply Chain Management at Engro Foods milk as per the requirements of each product.
Forexample, Tarang is a high-fat tea whitener and therefore it needs more cream content
anddifferent ingredients as compared to a product like Olwell, which is low fat and requires
lesscream. The milk after pasteurization is then standardized as prescribed by the Pakistan
PureFood Laws at 35% Fats and 8.9% SNF (solidnon fats).UHT Treatment:The pasteurized
milk is then passed through the UHT (Ultra Heat Treatment). This is the mostsophisticated
and advanced stage in milk processing. In this process the milk passes through140 degree
centigrade in the first 3 seconds and it is then immediately cooled to 20 degreecentigrade in
the next 5 seconds, which in turn kills all the bacteria. The UHT process can beachieved

either through indirect or direct heating systems. In the indirect method the milk isheated by
steam passing through stainless steel pipes outside milk tanks. In the direct methodeither the
steam is directly injected into the milk or the milk is forced through a fine nozzle intoa tank
filled with steam. Engro Foods makes use of the direct system for the UHT
process.Packaging:Following the heat treatment, the milk is cooled in a sterile vacuum
chamber. After the heattreatment the milk is cooled and packed in Tetra Pak cartons as soon
as possible to preventcontamination. The packaging process is also carefully monitored. The
packages undergostringent controls to check that they are sterilized. The milk is then filled
into the cartons underaseptic conditions. The cartons are filled automatically and
continuously under completelysterile conditions and then heat-sealed. 15
17. 16. Secondary SalesPrimary Sales refers to the sales of the batches of products by the
manufacturer to thedistributors. Secondary Sales refers to the sales by the distributors to the
retailers from wherethe goods are eventually sold to the ultimate consumer. So Engro Foods
is following thetraditional channel of distribution that involves some intermediaries between
the transfersfrom producer to the consumer. Manufacturer Final Distributors Retailers (Engro
Foods) Consumer Market Analysis:Segmentation: It is difficult for any one company to
engage in massproduction, mass distribution and mass promotion for its product.
Thecomplexities arise from the proliferation of advertising and distributionchannels and the
high costs associated with reaching a mass audience.Therefore, companies segment the
market so that they can target thegroup of customers who share similar needs and wants.
The milksector shows a market that has homogeneous preferences that is theconsumers
have similar preferences. They want milk to be white,carefully processed, and good for health
and bones. Keeping thesethings in mind Engro foods market has been segmented.
Themarketers at Engro Foods have had a number of options available tothem when
segmenting the market for their products. 16 Primary Sales SALES:The sales of Engro
foods products are divided into:
18. 17. Demographic segmentation Engro products are not bounded to any particular age,
gender or lifecycle stage. Thebrand is meant for all the users in higher upper or middle class
families. Even though the brandcalls for a small percentage of an individuals income but
lower class wouldnt want to buy thebrand maybe because they are price sensitive or
because they believe lose milk is better thanprocessed milk and has all the nutrients that the
processed milk lacks. However all thecompanies in the milk sector are trying to change the
image of processed milk as non-nutritionist milk? Therefore it can be said that Olpers has
been positioned as a brand for highincome earners. Due to the income factor involved it can
be said that Engro foods target aspecific social class who are health conscious and
concerned about their weight.Psychographic segmentation On the basis of psychographics,
factors such as personality traits, lifestyles and values,the marketers at Engro foods have
segmented the market more towards achievers who aregoal-oriented and focused on their
careers, and experiences those who are seeking variety inthe milk sector. For example the
ads for Olwell mostly show achievers who want to besuccessful, have high aims and are
already doing quite well in their concerned fields. TheEngros products have targeted
experiences because the company has given them a new set ofbrand and so many will make
their first purchase because they want to try something new.Olpers ads also target believers,

traditional conservative people with concrete beliefs. The adsfor Engros show the beliefs of
healthy life with processed milk and plays on the emotionalaspect more.Behavioral
segmentation Engros products have been segmented on the basis of benefits that
consumers seek inthe milk. In this case, people look for a brand that can be used for all
purposes from drinking totea whiteners as well to feed the animals. The ads also show that
consumers should increasetheir milk consumption for example with every tea they should
use Olpers, every morning theyshould drink Olpers and everyday they should feed their pets
with Olpers milk. There may besome hard core loyal in the milk sector. Loyalty maybe
towards such established brands asNestle and Haleeb. There might even be switchers and
shifting loyal in the milk sectors that areeither price sensitive or want variety. As a result, the
marketers need to find ways to make thehard core loyal attracted to the Olpers brand and
shifting loyal and switchers to convert intohard core loyal as well.Positioning the brand
Positioning involves designing the product and image that will occupy a distinctive placein the
minds of the target market. As can be seen, nestle milk pak and Haleeb have the largest 17
19. 18. profit margins and market share in the milk industry. Thus the marketers at Olpershave
decided to create its own unique image and then strengthen the position inthe customers
minds. They have done this by taking a number of following steps:1. Packaging of Olpers
milk and Olwell in red color and Olpers cream packed in purple colorare quite different and
distinctive from the typical green and blue packing used by othercompetitors.2. The brand
has been positioned as an all purpose milk that is meant for everyone, especiallyfor those
who live life to the fullest, hence its tag line, jo dil khol kay jeetay hain unheen kayliyay hai
Olpers.Engro foods always tries to create customer intimacy that is it focuses on satisfying
thecustomers unmet needs. Processed milk is seen as less lacking all the nutritions that is
part ofmilk due to passing through so many processes. But Engro foods positions itself as
milk thathas not lost its nutrients. The unique selling proposition for Engro foods is Subah
BakhairZindagi , but recently the company changed the USP to: Jo dil khol kay jeetay hain
unheen kayliyay hai Olpers. Both the tag lines have a very positive impact on Olpers image
because of theemotions involved in both the lines. The marketers have used different
positioning for Olpersproducts: o They have used the attribute positioning for Olpers milk.
The main theme of the product is that it is meant for all purposes without any user imagery.
Olpers ads also show attributes of milk such as good for health. o They used the benefit
positioning for Olwell. The product is positioned as delivering the benefit of helping to reduce
weight and for healthy bones. o Olpers cream is positioned as good for a specific use or
application. In this case the cream can be used to make cake icings and desserts look
great.It can be said that all the different stages have been performed by the marketers with
extremecare and research. 18

Whitener(200m.l) R.s18 Olwell Cream 200 m.l R.s80 The price of its competitor (Walls) is
more or less the same and price of liter ice creams is less than Walls which is a great
strategy Omore offers a 16% margin to retail traders and shop keepers which are slightly
lower than Walls, who offer a margin of 20% to shop keepers. They are new in the market
and do not have the same relationship with retailers as Walls. Place: Channels: Sells directly
to the end user through retailers and shopkeepers. This is the trend in Pakistan followed by
many FMCGs. Coverage: Engro Products for the time being is only available in limited areas
on Punjab and available throughout Pakistan. The company started off its operation in
Punjab because it has the largest province population wise. Transport: Engro products are
transported to retailers and shop keepers through private transportation firms e.g. Abu
Dawood Logistics and also through a few trucks owned by the company. This is done in
order to remove transportation and vehicle costs Locations: Available at large/medium sized
and small bakeries, grocery stores and pharmacies in Pakitan - Sell their products directly to
consumers using cycles and their own personnel. This strategy has been in practice for
many years and is being used by Walls and Hico too. 20
22. 21. Promotion:Advertising: Vehicle Advertising, Outdoor billboards, Point of Sale Displays
andAds on televisions. Advertisements are mostly colorful reminiscent to their ice
creampackaging. When Engro foods was initially launched they adopted a rather unique
wayof advertising. Flyers were thrown in different housing communities using
airplanes.Message: Linked Engro foods with joy and happiness so their tagline/sloganis Art
of Happiness. Linked with consumers and got reviews of different products usingvarious
mediums social communities e.g. Facebook and Orkut linked their ice creamwith other brand
names like Olpers and Olwell. This promoted their other brands as wellwhich are also
relatively new in the market. SWOT Analysis Strenghts Weaknesses Opportunities Threats
21
23. 22. Olwell TVC Olwell ad which is based on Western life style, ENGRO foods brand
management showed a man who put off his clothes Third-Generation Plant EFL only, has
the third-generation UHT milk plant in the country. EFL plant is the only plant in Pakistan that
uses Bactofuge technology to virtually eliminate bacteria and ensure premium quality and
hygiene. Moreover, it is also setting up another milk processing plant in Central Punjab
(Sahiwal) with an investment of Rs. 2 billion (US $ 33million).Weaknesses Its taste, quality
proposition and world-class quality proposition system. Positive response from customers
in first year, EFL crossed 1.4 billion sales figure which shows customers satisfaction upon
EFLs products. Personal relations with farmers ENGRO has been interacting with the
farmers for fertilizers and has gained quite a good reputation over the years. It has led to a

strong bond and long term relationship with the farmers who are willing to supply milk to the
company. This is an added advantage and strength for the company because it will never be
short of milk production. The farmers also wont have to look elsewhere to sell their milk.
Strengths & Low Quality Milk EFL is not having its own dairy farms; it largely collects
loose milk from farmers Owning Red Color The Company has not owned the color red like
Nestle has a green Milkpak; Haleeb has a blue carton etc. remain just in his
undergarments, or half nude lady in a cat walk or men admiring the figures of a lady in mix
gender health club. & Milk collection Packaging EFL is dependent upon Tetra Pak for the
packaging of its entire dairy products. Tetra Pakis the only option available to Olpers for
packaging because it is having monopoly in the packaging sector in Pakistan. galas
through its 40 milk collection centers. & Narrow brand portfolio It has been more than a year
now, when EFL launched its first dairy product, Olpers Milk on March20, 2006. But EFLs
brand portfolio still consists of just 3 products i.e. Olpers Milk, Olwell Milk and Olpers
Cream. Whereas its competitors like Nestle and Haleeb Foods have a much diversified line
of dairy products. 22distribution costs EFLs34 out of 40 milk-collection centers are located
in Punjab, whereas its only milk processing facility is situated near Sukkhur (Sindh).
24. 23. Increased consumption of PLM Competition may create opportunities for the company
because each competitor in the milk industry wants to increase pene Increased funding by
Government Government has decided to increase farmers funding. This is an opportunity for
ENGRO foods because previously due to weather conditions and other reasons there was
lots of wastage of milk but now that can be reduced as farmers will be better able to store
milk for longer time periods. Opportunities Perceptions and Price Differentials Consumers
perceptions and price differentials can cause a threat for the company. It is important that
Olpers comes up to the expectations of the customers and fulfills its conformance quality
that is the company meets its promised specifications. Consumers preferences change with
time and prices might create certain barriers inters of the profit margins for Olpers. 23
Competition may pose a threat because the company will have to maintain its leadership in
an expanding market so that it doesnt lose its market share to its competitors. For Olpers it
might be difficult to penetrate in a market where the loyalties exist for such brands as Nestle
and Haleeb. Third largest producer of milk Pakistan is the Third largest producer of milk in
the world with a total production of 32billion liter of milk a year, whose value is more than that
of the combined value of wheat and cotton, from a total herd size of 50 million milk animals
(buffaloes and cows). Livestock accounts for 46.8 percent of agricultural value added and
about 10.8percent of the GDP.Threats Awareness Growing dissatisfaction with loose milk
and increasing awareness about health and hygiene issues have led to increased processed
milk consumption. tration of processed liquid milk and so they will create awareness for
consumers through different advertising media.

well-known portfolio managementtool used in order to analyze and position the product by
keeping in view the market share aswell as the market growth rate of the product. BCG
matrix is often used to prioritize whichproducts within company product mix get more funding
and attention. The BCG model is basedon classification of products (and implicitly also
company business units) into four categoriesbased on combinations of market growth and
market share relative to the largest competitor.In order to elaborate the BCG matrix, I have
chose Engro foods limited. Though Engro has anumber of other business in which it involve
but in this report I have focused only in onebusiness unit of Engro which is Engro foods
limited. Engro foods have launched six majorbrands since 2004, year of establishment of
Engro foods. In these six major brands five are dairyproducts. In year 2010, Engro has
launched olfrute which is a fresh juice product by thisparticular company. In this report, I have
categorized all the six major brands of Engro foods into four categories of BCG matrix. The
decision of this categorization has been made on the basisof two major things that are
market share and the growth in the market. 26
28. 27. Stars In the BCG matrix, I have placed two products in the star categories that are Omore
andTarang as the growth rate of these two products are quite high as you can see in the
table-1.Beside this the market share is also increasing. As both of the products are relatively
new inthe market as compared to its competitors and the market share is not so well but still
in thisshortage period this growth rate and the market share is incredible. There is a lot of
potential inboth of these products and company can increase its market share by massively
investing inthese two products. Investing Strategy must be used in order to constant the
growth, thecompany must constantly invest in order to grow the current level of market share.

Olper is one of the well renowned brands by Engro foods and this has lead to a
drasticchange in the diary industry of Pakistan. Before olper, haleeb and milk pack had the
monopolyin the tetra pack diary industry but after the olper success a lot of other brands like
good milk,nurpur etc got enter into the market. Now the market of the olper has a relatively
high marketshare and the third largest milk producer in Pakistan. Olper milk and cream come
under thesame umbrella of brand nameolper. Harvesting Strategy should use and Engro

should milk itscow for the Omore and Tarang in order to increase their current market share.

29. 28. Question Marks At the end of year 2010, Engro food has launched its first juice brand
name Olfrute.Olfrute has relatively low market share but the growth potential is quite high.
Olfrute is facing atough competitor with a strong brand name of Nestle. The initial promotion
and the salesfigures depict that it can be a successful product but still the results of this
brand has yet tocome. In this particular period Engro food has also launched flavored milk
with brand nameowsum. Though the experiences of haleeb in the case of candia was bitter,
now just see whatEngro will do in order to make this brand a success. Growth Rate +2
Juices Market Share Nestle 49% Olfrute 13% Country 25% Halleb 13%Dog Engro has
lauched a brand with the name Olwell with high calcium and low fat. This hasget a great
failure and the market share of Olwell as compared to nesvita is quite low besidethis its sales
are started decreasing as compared to the previous year figures. Divesting Strategycan be
used as from the past two years the market share has been started losing and also thethere
is slow market growth for this product. Growth Rate +1 Milk Market Share Dairy Omang 10%
Milk Pak 45% Dairy Queen 38% Halla 7% 28
