INDUSTRIAL PROFILE
India is a diverse country where different states have different consumption patterns and
customs. Competition has become the key word in today‟s scenario. Till 1970‟ s and
80‟s Maggie and Kissan were the major ketchup brands but after liberalization Heinz
entered Indian market which offered tough competition. These major giants are also
facing competition from many local players like Tops, Cremica and other local brands.
The ketchup market in India is estimated to be around Rs 220 crore, largely dominated by
Nestle‟s Maggi that owns 47% of the market and the Kissan that owns 26%. Up to mid
eighties Kissan was the number one brand in Tomato Ketchup and around that time the
competition came from Maggi -- a Nestle‟s brand
Maggi launching several varieties of Tomato Ketchup there was a growth in the market.
With Kissan and Maggi fighting neck to neck other smaller but established brands like
Dipy's from Herbert sons, Volfruit from Voltas, Noga of Nagpur Orange Federation and
SunSip of Wimco gradually disappeared from the market. Delmonte now has joined
hands with Paoma Industries, the manufacturers of Rasna Brands of soft drink
concentrate and is expected to launch Tomato Ketchup shortly. At a time when Kissan
had become generic to tomato sauce, Maggi came in with its sauces range. Maggi was the
upstate new corner who came in with a loud aggressive national burst. It did not come in
with one, but with a range of sauces in order to increase market share and expand the
market by offering more usage occasions, bring consumers with different needs into the
Maggi Sauces fold and weaning away users of different brands to Maggi. From a market
share of 14% in 1985, Maggi Sauces now enjoys a share of about 50% of the market.

investment is the opportunity cost capital. The opportunity cost capital is the excepted
rate of return that an investor could earn by investing his or her money in financial assets
of equivalent risk. However, there are problem in computing the opportunity cost of
capital in practice from the available data and information. A decision maker should be
aware these problems.

A. Working Capital Management Analysis
Any type of business enterprise needs two types of capital fixed capital and working
capital, capital investment in fixed assets like, land, plant, capital and a part pf the total
capital investment in current assets like stock, debtors, bills receivables, cash and bank is
known as working capital. In order to keep the working capital is essential. It is the
working capital that keeps the wheel of the business running. That is why it is said that
working capital is the life blood of the business running adequate working capital is
essential. However, working capital more than or less than required proves to be harmful.
Therefore to keep the total working capital and its component parts at satisfactory level
its proper management is of much importance.
I. MANAGEMENT OF CASH
Cash is the important current assets for the operations of the business. Cash is the basic
input needed to keep the business running on a continuous basis, it is also the ultimate
output expected to be realized by selling the service or product manufactured by the firm.
The firm should keep sufficient cash, neither more nor less. Cash shortage will disrupt the
firm‟s manufacturing operations while excessive cash will simply remain idle, without
contributing anything towards the firm‟s profitability. Thus, a major function of the
financial manager is to maintain a sound cash position
8
II. Inventory Management
For many business firms Inventory is one of the visible and tangible of doing business.
Raw materials, work in process and finished goods all represent various form of
inventory. In simple words, inventory refers to stocks of good necessary to do business.
Another component of working capital is inventory. The factory is very big kitchen
which requires hundreds or thousands of items for manufacturing different products.
Such items include the stock of raw materials, goods in process, finished goods and other
consumable stores. The management of inventory is important because a substantial part
of working capital remains invested in inventory and different types of costs are
associated with it. Situations like under stocking, overstocking, purchasing in small
quantities or large quantities etc. always prove to be very costly. From the view point of
scientific storage of different items also inventory management is important.
Types of inventory
Inventories can be classified into three categories:
(1) Raw Materials: These are the goods which have not been so far committed to
production in a manufacturing business firm. They include unprocessed basic raw
materials, finished components or spare parts or intermediate goods to be used as raw
materials.
(2) Working in process: This refers to those materials which have been committed to
processes but not yet been completed.
(3) Finished goods: These are processed and completed products a waiting for sale.
They are the final product or output of the production process in a manufacturing
firm. They are merchandise inventory for wholesalers and retailers.
In the with LUCKY SAUCE Company, the Production manager & Finance manger both
are take decision about inventory separately.

The first step in the process of performance appraisal is the setting up of the standards
which will be used to as the base to compare the actual performance of the employees.
This step requires setting the criteria to judge the performance of the employees as
successful or unsuccessful and the degrees of their contribution to the organizational
39
goals and objectives. The standards set should be clear, easily understandable and in
measurable terms. In case the performance of the employee cannot be measured, great
care should be taken to describe the standard.

Once set, it is the responsibility of the management to communicate the standards to all
the employees of the organization. The employees should be informed and the standards
should be clearly explained to them. This will help them to understand their roles and to
know what exactly is expected from them. The standards should also be communicated to
the appraisers or the evaluators and if required, the standards can also be modified at this
stage itself according to the relevant feedback from the employees or the evaluators.

performance of the employees that is the work done by the employees during the
specified period of time. It is a continuous process which involves monitoring the
performance throughout the year. This stage requires the careful selection of the
appropriate techniques of measurement, taking care that personal bias does not affect the
outcome of the process and providing assistance rather than interfering in an employees
work.
D. COMPARING THE ACTUAL WITH THE DESIRED PERFORMANCE :-

comparison tells the deviations in the performance of the employees from the standards
set. The result can show the actual performance being more than the desired performance
or, the actual performance being less than the desired performance depicting a negative
deviation in the organizational performance. It includes recalling, evaluating and analysis
of data related to the employee‟s performance.

one basis. The focus of this discussion is on communication and listening. The results,
the problems and the possible solutions are discussed with the aim of problem solving
and reaching consensus. The feedback should be given with a positive attitude as this can
have an effect on the employees‟ future performance. The purpose of the meeting should
be to solve the problems faced and motivate the employees to perform better.

3. PROCESS OF PRODUCTION
Since the company is small they are going to Manufacture on the small scale region only.
There are certain steps which show there way of making:-
Step:-1 selection of raw material
Ripe tomatoes are taken. Green and unripe tomatoes are discarded as it would discolor
the final product. The tomatoes are first washed. Here rinsing of tomatoes is not enough
because mold filaments and other micro-organisms found in their cracks and wrinkle
folds and stem cavities are not easily dislodged.
step:1• selection of raw material
step: 2• washing of raw material
step: 3• boiling and juice extraction
step: 4• Addition of preservatives
step: 5• cooking and packing
51
Step:-2 washing of raw material
The washer is first receives the tomatoes in a tank, holding them for a sufficient length of
time to soak and to loosen the dirt, and then submits all parts to a thorough spray under
strong pressure.
Step 3:- boiling and juice extraction
After washing, the tomatoes are trimmed, cut into small pieces before boiling. The
tomato pieces are boiled in their own juice in steam jacketed kettles for 3 to 5 minutes to
facilitate pulping. The juice is extracted by passing the cooked tomatoes through a pulper.
The juice is normally contains solids at 5.66% and a specific gravity of 1.024
Step:-4 Addition of preservatives
The ketchup is prepared by concentrating the juice obtained from the pulper. Spices, salt,
sugar, vinegar, onions, garlic, etc are to be added to the extent, it contains not less than
12% tomato solids and 28% total solids. The following recipe is used to manufacture
ketchup.
The spices are loosely tied in a muslin bag and is placed in the juice and boiled till The
desired consistency is obtained Add sugar and salt to the vinegar and stir. Add the mix to
the ketchup and stir thoroughly to form a homogenous
Step:-5 cooking and packing
When the ketchup has been cooked, it is passed through a sieve to remove any fibrous
material or external contaminants. The ketchup should be bottled at 190 degrees
Fahrenheit to prevent darkening of its color and loss of vitamin contents during Storage.
On cooling, the ketchup shrinks in volume, producing thereby a high degree Of vacuum
in the bottle. Sometimes a black ring is formed on the surface of the Ketchup bottle. This
is known as "black neck". It is because of the oxidation of the Iron compounds which
enter into the ketchup from the boiling equipment and from the metal of the cap through
the action of acetic acid.

Unavoidable waste, in these types of waste there is no control of production
management on it. The firm must has to face this waste.

A market is one of many varieties of systems, institutions, procedures, social relations
and infrastructures whereby parties engage in exchange. While parties may exchange
goods and services by barter, most markets rely on sellers offering their goods or services
(including labor) in exchange for money from buyers. It can be said that a market is the
process by which the prices of goods and services are established.
Marketing management is a process of planning and executing the conception, pricing,
promotion and distribution of adequate machine and it has a very strong manufacturing
infrastructure.
For a market to be competitive there must be more than a single buyer or seller. It has
been suggested that two people may trade, but it takes at least three persons to have a
market, so that there is competition on at least one of its two sides. However, competitive
markets rely on much larger numbers of both buyers and sellers.
1. MARKETING ENVIRONMENT
A. INTRODUCTION OF MARKETING
We use a large variety of goods and services in our daily life. These include items like,
toothpaste, toothbrush, soap, oil, clothes, food items, telephone, electricity and many
more. How do all these goods and services reach our home? Obviously the business
houses that produce the goods and services have to ensure that these are to be sold, and so
they have to make the consumers/users aware of their products and place them at points
convenient to the consumers. This involves a number of activities such as product
planning, pricing, promotion, use of middlemen (wholesalers, retailer etc.) for sale,
warehousing, transportation etc. All these activities taken together are termed as
Marketing.
Management definition
It is the process of planning and executing the conception, pricing, promotion and
distribution of ideas, goods and services to create exchanges that satisfy individual and
organizational goals.
56
Social definition
A societal process by which individuals and groups obtain what they need and want
through creating, offering and freely exchanging products and services of value with
others
We know that the businessman produces goods and services for our use. These are not
Necessarily produced at the places where they are consumed or used. Even in villages,
Now-a-days you find the products manufactured all over India and in other countries.
This implies that the manufacturers must be making efforts to ensure that their products
are in demand and reach the ultimate consumers all over the globe. So, when you go to
the market to buy a readymade shirt you find that there are several options available to
you in terms of quality of cloth used, design, color, price etc. and you can buy what suits
you most. This also implies that the manufactures assess the needs of the consumers, their
tastes and preferences and plan the products accordingly. Not only that, they also ensure
that people are aware about the product and its features. All these activities are said to be
part of marketing function of any organization. Thus, marketing refers to the process of
ascertaining consumers‟ needs and supplying various goods and services to the final
consumers or users to satisfy those needs.
The American Marketing Association defines marketing as an “organizational function
and set of processes for creating, communicating and delivering value to customers and
for managing customer relationships in ways that benefit the organization and its
stakeholders.”
Basically, marketing is the performance of business activities that direct the flow of
goods and services from producers to consumers or users.
57
B. IMPORTANCE OF MARKETING
Marketing is important to the business, consumer as well as the society. This is evident
from the following
(a) Marketing helps business to keep pace with the changing tastes, fashions, preferences
of the customers. It works out primarily because ascertaining consumer needs and wants
is a regular phenomenon and improvement in existing products and introduction of new
product keeps on taking place. Marketing thus, contributes to providing better products
and services to the consumers and improve their standard of living.
(b) Marketing helps in making products available at all places and throughout the year.
We are able to get Kashmir shawls and Assam Tea all over India and get seasonal fruits
like apple and oranges round the year due to proper warehousing or proper packaging.
Thus, marketing creates time and place utilities.
(c) Marketing plays an important role in the development of the economy. Various
functions and sub-functions of marketing like advertising, personal selling, packaging,
transportation, etc. generate employment for a large number of people, and accelerate
growth of business.
(d) Marketing helps the business in increasing its sales volume, generating revenue and
ensuring its success in the long run.
(e) Marketing also helps the business in meeting competition most effectively.
58
C. OBJECTIVE OF MARKETING
After knowing the points of importance of marketing let us discuss on the basic
objectives of marketing.
I. Provide satisfaction to customers
All marketing activities are directed towards customer satisfaction. Marketing starts With
ascertaining consumer needs and produce goods that satisfy those needs most Effectively.
Not only that the pricing and distribution functions of marketing are also planned
accordingly
II. Increase in demand
Through advertising and other sales promotional efforts, marketing aims at creating
additional demand for their products. Satisfied customers also help in creating new
customers. For example, if you buy a „gel pen‟ and feel satisfied, next time also you will
buy the same pen and obviously when you tell others about it they will also feel like
giving it a try.
III. Provide better quality product to the customers
This is a basic objective of marketing. The business houses try to update and upgrade
their knowledge and technology to continuously provide better products. If they do not do
so, they will be phased out through competition.
IV. Create goodwill for the organization
Another objective of marketing is to build a good public image and create goodwill for
the organization. This helps in maintaining loyalty to the product and accepting new
products of the same company.
V. Generate profitable sales volume
The ultimate objective of all marketing efforts is to generate profitable sales volumes for
the business. Taking care of customer needs and wants by providing the required goods
and services at prices they can afford, and at places and timing that are convenient to
them ultimately lead to increased sales and profits.
59
2. SEGMENTATION, TARGETING, POSITIONING
A. SEGMENTATION
Research plays an important role in segmentation as segmentation analysis requires a
range of data form a wide variety of sources on markets, customers‟ attitudes, motives
and behavior as well as competitor information.
B. TARGETING – TARGET MARKET
Targeting is the next step in the sequential process and involves a business making choices
about segment(s) on which resources are to be focused. There are three major targeting
strategies: undifferentiated, concentrated, and differentiated. During this process the
business must balance its resources and capabilities against the attractiveness of different
segments.
The LUCKY SAUCE PVT LTD, targets the customer‟s status. Company made the
different flavors sauces according to the test and preferences of the customers.
C. POSITIONING
Positioning follows on logically from the segmentation and targeting stages. Customer
perceptions are central to the product position especially in relation to the competition‟s
offering. The product or service has to satisfy key customer requirements and this has to be
clearly communicated to customers. A tool that helps marketers understand customer
perceptions of their brand is perceptual mapping and a position approach can be used to
develop a clear positioning strategy. However, a number of positioning problems can arise.
60
3. CONSUMER BUYING BEHAVIOR
Consumer buying behavior can be defined as acts of individuals in obtaining and using a
product or services including the decision processes that precede and determine these acts
There are two types of customers. One is the individual customers who buy for self and
family consumption. The second is industrial or organization customers who buy the
plant and machinery tools and equipment, raw-materials, spare parts and consumables as
inputs for industrial production. For the marketer it is essential to study the buying
behavior of both- consumer and the industrial buyer. The last item which is produced by
the lucky sauce, is mostly used by end users (consumers), so that is why there is concept
of consumer buying behavior
A. CONSUMER BUYING PROCESS
Buying behaviors of the consumer depends upon his involvement in the product.
However general observation and research indicate that generally consumers for reaching
to buying decision undergo a behavioral process consisting of consecutive five steps as
under
61
I. NEED RECOGNITION: - problem recognition or identification of need is the
starting point of buying behavior process. The buyer senses difference between
his actual state and a desired state. First the consumer identifies his/her need. It
includes what kind of the product they want or need to feel satisfaction and
produce their product.
II. INFORMATION SEARCH: - The second level is the active information search.
In this stage after deciding the product consumer will start gathering information
about the product. Every consumer will pass two stage of information gathering:
Heightened attention:- in this consumer is not having detailed
knowledge about the product the consumer will become more
receptive to information
Active information search:- After knowing about the product
consumer will enter into second stage active information gathering
in which consumer will take active part and start searching for
information. He/ she may start collecting material, meeting to
friend, relatives, neighbors, families. Etc
III. EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVES:- after preparing the list of alternative
product the consumer undertakes the evaluation process. There are no set criteria
for the evaluation of the product. However consumer tries to evaluate the product
on the basis of its features.
Expectancy- value model or Compensatory model
Attributes
Brands
Test Quantity
(Kg)
Price
(Rs)
Durability
(month)
Lucky 5 1 60 9
Kissan 4 1 91 9
Maggi 2 1 90 9
[Test: 1- excellent, 10- poor]
62
IV. PURCHASE DECISION:- in the third evaluation stage the consumer form
References among the alternative brands. The consumer may also form the
intention to buy the most preferred brand.
V. POST PURCHASE SATISFACTION:- satisfaction is the differences between
consumer expectation and performance. After purchasing the product, if the
performance of the product is not matching with an expectation of a consumer
then consumer will not be satisfied. If performance matches with an expectation
then consumer will be satisfied. If performance off the product exceeds
expectation then consumer will be very satisfied.

with changes in the marketing situation, thus impacting the marketing strategy and the
marketing mix.
65

for the product. The impact on the marketing mix is as follows:

products. The primary objective at this point is to defend market share while maximizing
profit.
Product features may be enhanced to differentiate the product from that of
competitors.
66
Pricing may be lower because of the new competition.
Distribution becomes more intensive and incentives may be offered to encourage
preference over competing products.
Promotion emphasizes product differentiation.
IV. DECLINE STAGE

Maintain the product, possibly rejuvenating it by adding new features and finding
new uses.
Harvest the product - reduce costs and continue to offer it, possibly to a loyal

A. BRAND
“Brands means a name, a term, a sign, a symbols or a combination of these intended to
identify the goods or services of one seller or groups of seller and to differentiate them
from those of competitors.”
A brand is a sellers promise to deliver consistently a specific set of features, benefits, and
services to buyers. The best brands convey a warranty of quality.
IMPORTANCE OF BRAND:
It is easy to identify the product.
The brand gives a separate identify to a product and from competitors.
Brand can be trade mark.
Brand gives legal protection.
The producers can be a symbol of quality.
Price difference can be possible by brand.
72
B. PRICE
1) INTRODUCTION
“Price is the element of the marketing mix that creates sales revenue, the other element is
cost.”
-Philip Kotler
A value that will purchase a definite quantity, weight, or other measure of a good or
service. In ordinary usage, price is the quantity of payment or compensation given by one
party to another in return for goods or services. In modern economies, prices are
generally expressed in units of some form of currency.
In all modern economies, the overwhelming majority of prices are quoted in (and the
transactions involve) units of some form of currency. Although in theory, prices could be
quoted as quantities of other goods or services this sort of barter exchange is rarely seen.
2) OBJECTIVES OF PRICING
"Volume objectives include sales maximization and market-share goals, which are
specified as a percentage of certain markets. In sales maximization, management sets an
acceptable level of profitability and then tries to maximize sales. This objective can lead to
discounting or some other aggressive pricing strategy, such as rebates and sales. "
[Prof.Allen says]
73
I. Profit Oriented: Target Return –
sometimes the vendor specifies a specific dollar amount or percentage amount that the
price will be offered at in order to make a profit which has been calculated for a specific
purpose. Usually this amount is part of a larger plan involving several product units in a
product line
II. Profit Oriented: Maximize Profits -
if the Competitive Market is not intense you may charge the highest price the market will
bear because sometimes you may have an advantage for reasons asked on your
geographic advantage special features not available on other competitors' products very
very famous brand. Etc.
III. Sales Oriented: Increase Sales Volume
IV. Sales Oriented: Increase Market Share
V. Status Quo Goals: Meet the Competition –
If the customer has many choices and you barely have the resources to stay in the market,
and then just charge the same price. You don't have the resources to survive a price war,
and you don't have the ability to claim better quality to charge a higher price
74
3) METHODS OF PRICING
There is no specific pricing method in LUCKY SAUCE Company. The price of the
product fluctuates on the basis of prices of the raw materials in the market. If the price of
the raw material increases the price of the product increases simultaneously and vice
versa
When the price is increased, no prior information is given to the distributor, but the
products will be supplied to the distributor at the prevailing price. The distributor is
supposed to follow the following steps in case of price increase:
The distributor and the retailer must sell their stock at the price that they have got
or at the printed price of the product.
The distributor should inform the retailer that he would supply the stock at the
price at which the company gives him.
When prices are to be reduced,
The distributor will be informed seven days in advance so that he can sell off his
stocks.
He must ask the retailers to sell off their stock as soon as possible to avoid
possible losses.
He must see that the old stock is sold first and do not make a fresh supply till
then, this will avoid the packets with two different prices.
The company will not give price reduction on old stock.
C. PLACE
1) INTRODUCTION
This term really refers to any way that the customer can obtain a product or receive a
service. Provision of a product or service can occur via any number of distribution
channels, such as in a retail store, through the mail, via downloadable files, on a cruise
75
ship, in a hair salon, etc. The ease and options through which you can make your product or
service available to your customers will have an effect on your sales volume.
2) LEVEL OF CHANNELS OF DISTRIBUTION

3) ACTIVITIES OF DISTRIBUTION

II. SERVICES
At Concept Services we work with companies that have a need to increase sales and to
improve their sales processes. All of our clients have one thing in common; they all have a
need to generate new business from new customers. In a business economy of constant
change, trying to do more with less, downsizing, and the need for increased sales and
efficiencies, Concept Services has evolved. We help companies to be more proactive in
their sales approach and to flatten the highs and lows of seasonal sales or an ineffective
sales force.
Concept Services is about sales. We are not providing a product. What we provide is a
"concept" that is executed as a service and is gauged by the success of our customers.
III. MARGIN OF CHANNEL PARTNER
Channel partnerships provide an opportunity for companies to promote certain products or
services. In return, channel partners receive access to product marketing and training,
discounts, technical support, lead generation tools and beta versions of releases. A VAR
that chooses to partner with a vendor may lose a certain degree of independence with
respect to other vendors in the same market. As a result, these relationships make sense
only when the increased access and support result in greater revenue for the channel
partner. Several vendors have created online forums, discussion groups and social
networking sites to encourage and support channel partnerships.
IV. AFTER SALES SERVICE
After sales service is the service that the manufacturer or retailer gives to the customer
after the sale of the product. This could involve maintenance or repair of the item during
a warranty period, or even longer. Obviously, the after sales service that is provided
depends very much on what has been sold. For example, if a customer buys some
expensive software that could help their own business, the after sales service here could
be the installation of the software and relevant training on how to use it.
77
D. PROMOTION
1) INTRODUCTION
Generally, promotion is communicating with the public in an attempt to influence them
toward buying your products and/or services. An activity, such as a sale or advertising
campaign, designed to increase visibility or sales of a product.

its product or products without making any alternative in product mix, price and channel
of distribution.”

6. COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS
A. INTRODUCTION
Competitor analysis in marketing and strategic management is an assessment of the
strengths and weaknesses of current and potential competitors. This analysis provides
both an offensive and defensive strategic context to identify opportunities and threats.
Profiling coalesces all of the relevant sources of competitor analysis into one framework
in the support of efficient and effective strategy formulation, implementation, monitoring
and adjustment.
Competitor analysis is an essential component of corporate strategy. It is argued that most
firms do not conduct this type of analysis systematically enough. Instead, many
enterprises operate on what is called “informal impressions, conjectures, and intuition
gained through the tidbits of information about competitors every manager continually
receives.” As a result, traditional environmental scanning places many firms at risk of
dangerous competitive blind spots due to a lack of robust competitor analysis.
