INTRODUCTION Chocolates and candies are one of the best-loved foods everywhere in the world. These are one of life's little pleasures. The attractive tastes and textures of chocolate and candies delight the senses of all ages. As far as Nestle chocolate Kit Kat is concerned, the product developed as Wafer Crisp, was initially launched in London, UK in September 1935 as Rowntree's Chocolate Crisp. It became 'Kit Kat' in 1937, two years before the Second World War. Within two years of launch Kit Kat was established as Rowntree's leading product, a position that it has maintained ever since. During the Second World War Rowntree Kit Kat was seen as a valuable wartime food and advertising described the brand as 'What active people need'. For most of its life Rowntree Kit Kat has appeared in the well-known red and white wrapper. It did, however, change to a blue wrapper in 1945, when it was produced with a plain chocolate covering due to a shortage of milk following the war. This blue packaging was withdrawn in 1947 when the standard milk chocolate Kit Kat was reintroduced. Polo and Fox candies are also well known and favorite products for refreshment. In Pakistan, Polo is now being imported from china after one year gap. Nestle Pakistan is producing Polo in china with lighter weight than before. Fox candies are available in six different flavors, from which Nestle fruit Fox is the most saleable and demanding candy.
HISTORY Henri Nestl founded Nestl in 1866 in Switzerland. Nestl means little nest in Swiss German. Nestl first customer was a premature infant who could tolerate neither his mothers milk nor any other conventional substitute. Thus, Henris ultimate goal was to help fight the problem of infant mortality due to malnutrition for which he developed a product combining various cows milk, wheat flour and sugar and name it Farine Lactee Nestl, which was the first product of Nestl being marketed in Europe. In 1974, Jules Monnerat purchased Nestl and collectively they launched a condensed milk product of its own. In 1905, Nestl got merged with Anglo-Swiss condensed milk. After some time, when Nestl got fully established and all its operation were properly functioning in Europe and was gaining fame around Europe, then Nestl decided to set up production plants around the globe to ensure the growth of the organization and to become multinational. The decision to set up industrial operation in new market needs a lot of research, as there are various factors that effect the growth of the organization and turns out to be a loss for the company. Such factors are as follows The availability of raw material Cost factor Economic climate Consumer purchasing power Consumer tastes
The decision to become multinational turned fruitful for Nestl and today Nestl has its own operations and products in America, England, India, Brazil, Australia, Pakistan, Hungary, France, Belgium, Italy, Spain and various other countries around the globe.
DYNAMIC EXPANSION The history of Nestle includes the development of many different products as well as acquisitions, mergers and the purchasing of shares in companies, mainly abroad. Over the course of the years, this enabled it to broaden its range of products and diversify its operations, while at the same time strengthening the economic foundations of the company. Amongst the most important acquisitions were Carnation in Los Angeles (milk, culinary products and pet foods) and more recently Rowntree Mackintosh in York (chocolate and confectionery), Buitoni in Perugia (pasta) as well as Perrier in France(mineral water). Nestle, which does 98% of its business outside Switzerland, also has interests in non-food sectors, in cosmetics (a large share holding in L'Oreal) and ophthalmic products (acquisition of Alcon Laboratories Inc.) while continuing to give priority to food products.
NESTLE TODAY Nestle is now the world's largest food company. It is present on all five continents, has an annual turnover of 74.7 billion Swiss francs, runs 509 factories in 83 countries and employs about 231,000 people the world over. The Company owes its current status to the pioneering spirit inherited from its founders which continues to inspire it, to its concern with quality and to its constant search for new ways of satisfying man's nutritional needs. Wherever possible, it sets up factories locally, employs personnel from the country concerned and relies on indigenous raw materials. Its agricultural services provide assistance to improve the quality and yield of the raw materials it uses. Much attention is devoted to professional training and to the integration of the Company in its economic and social environment.
RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT Nestle, the world's biggest food Group, is also the global leader in the industry with regard to Research and Development (R&D), No other food company matches the R&D presence of Nestle, with a worldwide network of centers in 17 locations on four continents. No other food company dedicates so many human and financial resources to R&D: an international staff of 3500 engaged in the search for innovative new products and the renovation of existing ones. Year after year, Nestle invests some 800 million Swiss francs into R&D as a major driving force of its double strategy: to strengthen the Company's brands worldwide and to continue to support future long- term growth and competitiveness through innovation and renovation. At the threshold of this new millennium, Nestls objective is to consolidate and strengthen its leading position at the cutting edge of innovation in the food area, in order to meet the needs and desires of consumers around the world, for pleasure, convenience, health and well being.
BUSINESS REVIEW MILK COLLECTION The core raw material of Nestle Milkpak is milk. Over the last twelve years, the Company's prime concern has been to improve the quality and volume of milk for UHT processing and for other milk based products. Driven by its commitment to quality and having realized that only self collection could eliminate its dependence on poor quality milk available from outside sources, the Company successfully established its own collection system and expanded its operations over a very large milk shed area in Punjab. Owing to this tremendous growth in the volume of an extremely high quality raw milk, Nestle Milkpak now produces a superior quality and better tasting UHT milk, with longer shelf life. Today, Nestle Milkpak can boast of the largest milk collection network in the country, unmatched in size, productivity and efficiency. Milk is collected through a vast network of village milk centers (VMCs), sub-centers and centers. At these centers, chillers have been installed to lower milk temperature to 4C for preventing bacteria development during long hauls to the factories, which are undertaken by a large fleet of specially insulated tankers. In terms of quality, the milk collected by Nestle Milkpak is low in sodium, high in fat and solid-non fats (SNF) and very low in Total Plate Count (TPC) which, stated simply, means the bacteria count. This was achieved through a comprehensive strategy and sustained efforts to overhaul the milk collection process, intensive education program for the farmers and the milk collection
10
staff, up gradation of milk loading and transportation system, increase in the chilling capacity and above all, adherence to the highest acceptance standards at all milk collection points, including the factories. As a service to farmers, Nestle Milkpak has established an Extension Service, staffed by qualified veterinary doctors, who assist them in vaccination and treatment of livestock, improved breeding, good animal husbandry practices, provision of high yield fodder seed etc. By taking professional help and guidance to their doorsteps, which they otherwise find difficult to access, coupled with incentives and a good and prompt return for their milk, Nestle Milkpak has created a mutually beneficial relationship with the farmers, which translates into opportunities of economic uplift for the rural population. To promote milk production, Nestle Milkpak is successfully promoting the use of molasses to enrich the fodder and has arranged its distribution to farmers at cost.
11
PRODUCTION As a consequence of joint venture arrangement between Nestle S.A. of Switzerland and Milkpak Ltd. in 1988, the existing production facility of Milkpak in Sheikhupura became a part of Nestle Milkpak. The Milkpak Sheikhupura factory commenced operations in 1981 as a producer of UHT milk. By 1988, it had expanded its operation and was also producing butter, cream, desi ghee - all under the brand name of MILKPAK and juice drinks under the brand name FROST. To meet the demands of the large food market that Pakistan offered, Nestle Milkpak reorganized and reinforced the production of existing brands and gave shape to new production lines. The first to come was a milk powder plant, which not only began producing NIDO in 1990 but was also critical to the production of several milk-based products in the future. With the installation of the roller dryer in 1990, the first such product to come was CERELAC - an internationally recognized brand of infant cereal. This was followed by LACTOGEN 1 & 2 in 1991. The year 1992 saw the introduction of tea whitener EVERYDAY and milk powder in bulk packing named GLORIA. MILO and NESLAC came under production in 1994 and MILO RTD in 1995. Local packing of imported coffee under the name of NESCAFE 3 in 1 commenced the same year. In 1996, Nestle Milkpak's first confectionery plant of POLO Mint was installed and the production of NESTLE PURE ORANGE JUICE commenced. Packaging of coffee under the brand name of NESCAFE CLASSIC was undertaken the same year.
12
In 1997 NESTLE WHEAT and two variants of POLO viz. Strawberry and Orange were introduced. In 1998 a substantial capital investment was made to launch several products and install two new state-of-the-art technologies. SWEET TREETS were launched in early 1998. The addition of two flavors of POLO: Blackcurrant and Strong Mint, increased the number of POLO variants to five. A new variant Lemony was added to the range of popular FROST fruit drink flavors and a new 1-liter packing of FROST was introduced. Flavored milks under the brand FRESH & FRUITY came under production on the new Tetra Filling Machine equipped with the modern "slim" format. MILO RTD and UHT Cream were also shifted over to this new format.
A new flexible confectionery line enabled the manufacture of a wide range of high and low boiled sweets and toffees, including TOFFO and two variants of SOOTH- ERS' Menthol Eucalyptus and Honey Lemon. Nestle Milkpak also contracted to supply dairy mixes to McDonald's, for its popular soft serves and milk shakes. And to top it all, the most prestigious project, NESTLE PURE LIFE was also commissioned in December. Based on the latest water treatment and bottling technology, this marked the entry of Nestle Milkpak in the Pakistan water market and that of Nestle in the world water market. The expansion of high boiled sweet line continued in 1999 with the introduction of Fruit Drops and BUTTERSCOTCH. The year 2000 saw the production of some exciting products. First came NESCAFE Frothed Original, followed by its two other flavors: Mocha and
13
French Vanilla. NESCAFE Frappe RTD was to come next. The fruit juice range was expanded by the production of Mango and Orange- Mango Mix. On the confectionery side, Tutti Fruiti was added under the umbrella of POLO and Wild Cherry was added to the SOOTHERS range. The success of NESTLE PURE LIFE in PET bottles encouraged the commissioning of 5-gallon bottles production line for home and office in June. And the last product line of the year to be commissioned in November was that of NESTLE Plain Yogurt, a high quality product with special Stay-Fresh Seal. To meet the needs of safe and quality storage for the ever expanding product range and their volumes, a National Distribution Center (NDC) was completed and became functional in June, 2000. Spread over 6614 square meters, it has the capacity to store up to 8300 pallets (approximately 8000 tons).

SCIENTIFIC DEPARTMENTS Research at the Nestl Research Center encompasses the sensory and nutritional value of products along with consumer behavior, nutrition needs and social desires for foods and beverages. At the forefront of all research activities is Nestls commitment to the utmost safety and quality. A diverse selection of scientific disciplines is necessary for this global approach to nutrition research. The scientific departments currently at NRC include:
Bio Analytical Science Food Science Food/Consumer Interaction
Plant Science Nutrition and Health Consumer Trust Pet Basic Research Scientific and Nutrition Support 21
CONSUMER CONFIDENCE The Consumer Confidence department is the scientific heart of the Nestl Quality System. Consumer confidence and trust has been fundamental to Nestl's success for over 135 years. Our wide range of expertise is made available to R&D scientists, operational and technical units and businesses. We cover five main areas:
Consumer safety that guarantees the delivery of safe products. Product compliance that combines all aspects related to the legal
compliance of Nestl products.

Consistent quality that involves all measures for the delivery of Nestl
products with a consistent level of quality.

Consumer preference that ensures our products demonstrate superior
organoleptic and nutritional quality.

Occupational and environmental safety that combines all aspects
related to the safety of workers and the environment. Safety evaluation requires extensive scientific skills in the two areas of food safety: analytical method development and science-based risk assessment. Ingredients also need to be analyzed for authenticity and
allergens. Leading edge packaging expertise also has a role to play in ensuring both quality and safety of Nestl food products.
22
Anticipation of food safety issues is guaranteed through a systematic screening of scientific and technical literature and evaluation by our network of experts for case-adapted responses. FOOD SCIENCE The Food Science Department focuses on the physical, chemical and biotechnological aspects of food raw materials, ingredients and food products. Our scientists in collaboration wit nutritionists provide the scientific basis for innovative food concepts which deliver consumer benefits in the areas of pleasure, health and Wellness, and food quality and safety. For an innovative approach in the way we make food products, we work on three main aspects of modern foods.
food processes: e.g., molecular basis of unit operations including
extraction and refining of ingredients, or biotransformation of raw materials and ingredients.

functionalities of macronutrients: e.g., structure forming properties of
biopolymers, or ingredient interactions.

delivery
of functionalities in food products:
e.g., control of
bioavailability of functional molecules through specific carrier systems. The Food Science Department assembles state-of-the-art knowledge in food ingredients, food materials, food colloids and processes. Our research activities are targeted towards innovative and inventive new ways to combine the classical food ingredients like proteins, carbohydrates and fats to create
new food structure concepts (e.g. foams and mousses) with specific textures and functionalities.
23
Our projects are multidisciplinary and are organized in close collaboration with the other departments of NRC including PTCs and R&D Centers as well as the external scientific world such as universities. BIOANALYTICAL SCIENCE The Bioanalytical Science Department at NRC is where scientists from a range of disciplines provide knowledge required for post genomic work. We want to understand how food molecules affect the complex life processes... and how this knowledge can benefit mankind. Core disciplines span from analytical chemistry and biochemistry to (bio)mathematics, bioinformatics and clinical studies. We focus on developing advanced analytical tools and methodologies to support Nestl research and, in particular, the Nutrition and Health program. Food is a complex mixture of molecules that play different roles in the body, from maintenance to defense and protection. Understanding the fundamental biological process is key to deciphering the contribution of genetic variation among individuals to health and wellness compared to the effects of the environment and lifestyle. The biological process is a complex interplay of relationships between protein sequences, structure dynamics and molecular recognition. This process can be studied at several levels of bimolecular organization, which include genetic, and gene expression (genomics and transcriptomics), protein function and signaling (proteomics) and metabolite control and regulation
(metabonomics).
Bioinformatics
and
mathematic
modeling
are
24
additionally needed to unify all of the omics science areas.
We aim to be at the forefront of Bioanalytical developments and implement them to further the science of nutrition and health.
INNOVATIONS AND PUBLICATIONS Achieving health and wellness through foods is a challenging adventure. It extends the boundaries of consumer expectations and satisfaction beyond
25
the classical sensory experience. Todays discoveries provide the knowledge for tomorrows innovations. Much groundbreaking scientific work has emerged from the Nestl Research Center in the form of significant product innovations and recognized scientific publications. FOOD/CONSUMER INTERACTION In the context of health and wellness, we not only need to understand the physiology of health but also to know and understand the consumer's relationship with food. What is it about a food that makes the consumer like and chooses it? We study in detail aspects of pleasure derived from food before, during and after consuming it. These include the pleasure of anticipation, as well as sight, texture, taste and aroma. We also investigate the feeling of satisfaction. In one sense, satiety is the reward derived from consuming a particular food. But it is also strongly linked to signals that tell you to stop eating and feel happy. Physicists and chemists help us to understand how to deliver aroma, taste, and texture. But beyond biology, psychology or sensory behavior, ethnic culture is also a key to understanding why a given consumer prefers certain foods over others.
The Department is truly multidisciplinary. With expertise ranging from chemistry and biology to sensory and social sciences, we are a natural bridge between Food Science and Nutrition and Health.
26
SCIENTIFIC AND NUTRITION SUPPORT The Nutrition and Scientific Support Department (SNS) ensures that research findings and the latest news on food, nutrition, health and wellness is disseminated across the entire Nestl R&D community and businesses. In addition, we support R&D innovation by providing the tools, training and knowledge to assess and communicate the nutritional benefits of Nestl products. The department is composed of three interlinked groups: the first group provides Competitive and Scientific Information and Intelligence to our scientist, technologists, and to the management. The second group, Nutritional Assessment and Training, provides support, tools and training to improve the nutritional profile of our products and to increase the nutrition knowledge of Nestl employees. The group collaborates with a wide network of nutritionists from around the world in our PTCs, R&D centers and business markets. The third group, Functional Ingredients, focuses on traditional and functional ingredients. This group documents the strength of scientific efficacy evidence, supports the compilation of dossiers for regulatory approval, and proposes new nutrition concepts. The core of nutrition, health and wellness knowledge within the Nestl R&D community, we supply information to our colleagues to allow efficient and timely responses to consumer health and wellness demands.

BRANCHES IN PAKISTAN Nestl Pakistan has its branches in the following major cities of Pakistan:

Lahore Islamabad Faisalabad Sheikhupura (factory) Karachi Nestl is a customer and profit oriented organization rather than system and strategy oriented. The mechanics of generating profit are low-cost production and high-price sales. Nestl has different division.

It provides a linkage to both departments by connecting them in case of any demand from other department. MARKETING DEPARTMENT The Marketing Department is responsible for all sort of activities
including the promotion, advertising and tools used for generating demand.
36
The Marketing department is also responsible for arranging stalls and functions for the promotional and official reasons respectively. These stalls are conducted in different public places so that more of the people become aware of the importance of products that ensure quality. These stall activities remain active for around 4-5 days. Thus, in a month 4-5 such stalls are managed. After a stall activity finishes, the person who conducted the stall activity has to report to their seniors about the response they received from the public and the number of new customers they have been able to attract during their stall activity. SALES DEPARTMENT The Sales Department is responsible for carrying out the sales of Nestl confectionary covering the whole of Lahore. To conduct the sales efficiently and effectively, there are some territories that have been assigned some area of Lahore. The area managers administer these territories.

MARKETING MIX Marketing Mix is defined as a set of controllable tactical marketing tools that firm blends to produce the response it wants in the target market. The marketing mix consists of every thing the firm can do to influence the demand for its products. The many possibilities can be collected into four groups of variables known as the four P's that are as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. Product Price Place Promotion
1-PRODUCT Product stands for goods and services that the company offers to target market. Nestl kit Kat is in four sizes including K.K Chunky, while Polo is in three sizes. The shape and the color of the Kit Kat and Polo are quite attractive for the customers. The labeling, packaging of the Kit Kat and Polo includes the Nestl brand and logo. The packaging includes an expiry date and time along with a manufacture date. Second part of labeling includes the quantity of product in grams along with ingredients and contents of chocolates and candies.
51
2- PRICE The amount of money charged for a product or service, or sums of the values that consumers exchange for the benefits of having or using the product or services. The price of Nestl Kit Kat and Polo varies increases with the increase in its size.
3- PLACING Placing stands for company's activities that make the product available to the target consumer. Nestl' distribution is using the direct distribution channel to supply confectionary products weekly to the retailers. 4- PROMOTION Producing a quality product, pricing it attractively and making it available for the target consumer is not the only problem companies need to solve. Modern era is the era of communication with customer, assuring customer satisfaction, demands for personal and non-personal communication with the target customer to build a relationship with them. In an area-storming activity, giving out products free, gift hampers, attracts new customers; kites depending on the season (for existing and potential customers) are given. The basic purpose is to explore the area that is being unexposed and to bring awareness in the people.
52

The training programs are conducted every month whereas the training programs for the employees are conducted from time to time according to the standard of the company.

TRAINING PROGRAM FOR DSR An organization conducts a training program to provide better service to its customer.
