Parle ProductsParle Products is an Indian private limited company. It owns the famous biscuit brand Parle-G. As of

2012, it had a 35% dominant share of the Indian biscuit market.[1]

History

Parle Products company was founded in 1929 in British India. It was owned by the Chauhan family

of Vile Parle, Mumbai. Parle began manufacturing biscuits in 1939. In 1947, when India became

independent, the company launched an ad campaign, showcasing its Gluco biscuits as an Indian

alternative to the British biscuits.[2] The Parle brand became well known in India following the success

of products such as the Parle-G biscuits and the Thums Up soft drink.

The original Parle company was split into three separate companies, owned by the different factions of

the original Chauhan family:[3]

Parle Products, led by Vijay, Sharad and Anup Chauhan (owner of the brands Parle-G,

Melody, Mango Bite, Poppins, Monaco and KrackJack)

Parle Agro, led by Prakash Chauhan and his daughters Schauna, Alisha and Nadia (owner of

the brands such as Frooti and Appy)

Parle Bisleri, led by Ramesh Chauhan

All three companies continue to use the family trademark name "Parle". The original Parle group was

amicably segregated into three non-competing businesses. But a dispute over the use of "Parle" brand

arose, when Parle Agro diversified into the confectionary business, thus becoming a competitor to

Parle Products. In February 2008, Parle Products sued Parle Agro for using the brand Parle for

competing confectionary products. Later, Parle Agro launched its confectionery products under a new

design which did not include the Parle brand name.[4] In 2009, the Bombay High Court ruled that Parle

Agro can sell its confectionery brands under the brand name "Parle" or "Parle Confi" on condition that

it clearly specifies that its products belong to a separate company, which has no relationship with Parle

Products.[5]

brands have received consistently gold and silver Quality Awards at the World Quality

Selections.[6]

Apart from the original factory in Mumbai, Parle has manufacturing facilities

at Neemrana (Rajasthan), Bangalore and Bahadurgarh (Haryana). It also has several

manufacturing units on contract.

Parle-G

Parle-G biscuit

Parle-G or Parle Glucose is a brand of biscuits manufactured by Parle Products in India. As of 2011,

it is the largest selling brand of biscuits in the world according to Nielsen.[1]

History

Parle Products was established in the Vile Parle suburb of Mumbai, in 1929. It began manufacturing

biscuits in 1939. In 1947, when India became independent, the company launched an ad campaign,

showcasing its Gluco brand of biscuits as an Indian alternative to the British biscuits.[2]

Parle-G biscuits were earlier called 'Parle Gluco' Biscuits until 1980s. The "G" in the name Parle-G

originally stood for "Glucose", though a later brand slogan also stated "G means Genius".

In 2013, Parle-G became India's first domestic FMCG brand to cross the   5,000 crore in retail sales.[3]

Page 3: Parle

Marketing

Primarily eaten as a tea-time snack, Parle-G is one of the oldest brand names in India. For decades,

the product was instantly recognized by its iconic white and yellow wax paper wrapper with the

depiction of a young girl named Gunjan Gundaniya on the front. The Brand Trust Report, published by

Trust Research Advisory in 2011, ranked Parle in the 58th place as the Most Trusted brands of India.

As of January 2013, Parle-G's strong distribution network covered over 6 million retail stores in India.[4]

The low price is another important factor in Parle-G's popularity. Outside India, it is sold for 99 cents

for a 418 gram pack as of 2012. A more common 80 gram "snack pack" is sold for as low as 15 cents

at Indian grocers, and 40 cents at major retailers.

Parle Products has been India's largest manufacturer of biscuits and confectionery for almost 80 years.

Makers of the world's largest selling biscuit, Parle-G, and a host of other very popular brands, the Parle

name symbolizes quality, nutrition and great taste. With a reach spanning even to the remotest villages of

India, the company has definitely come a very long way since its inception.

Page 4: Parle

Many of the Parle products - biscuits or confectioneries, are market leaders in their category and have won

acclaim at the Monde Selection, since 1971. With a 40% share of the total biscuit market and a 15% share

of the total confectionary market in India, Parle has grown to become a multi-million dollar company. While

to the consumers it's a beacon of faith and trust, competitors look upon Parle as an example of marketing

brilliance.

Available Anywhere

Today, the great strength of Parle Products is the extremely widespread distribution network. Even at the

remotest places, you can buy Parle biscuits and sweets from the local grocer. It has taken years to create

this extensive network. Parle’s sales force started with one salesman in Bombay and some agents in few

other cities. Gradually, Parle Products expanded. Soon sweets and biscuits were being sent by rail to

Calcutta, Delhi, Karachi, Madras and other major cities. As production increased, distribution was amplified.

Full time salesmen were appointed in different areas. Currently, Parle Products has over 33, 00,000

distribution outlets.

History

Parle Product’s fame and familiarity is undeniable. Considering its extensive reach, the brand Parle is known

and recognized by everyone. Over the years, Parle’s sweets and biscuits have become a household name.

From kids to adults, everyone loves and cherishes these treats. It gives us great pleasure to see our

consumers enjoy and embrace Parle products on daily basis. Our confectioners and chefs have the utmost

authority at Parle. Had it not been so, the beginning of Parle would have been quite different.

In 1929 a small company by the name of Parle products emerged in British dominated India. The goal was

to spread joy and cheer to children and adults alike, all over the country with its sweets and candies.

Although, the company knew that it wouldn’t be an easy task, they decided to take the brave step. A small

factory was set up in the suburbs of Mumbai to manufacture confectionery products. A decade later this

factory was upgraded to manufacture biscuits as well. Since then, the Parle name has spread in all

directions and has won international fame. Parle has been sweetening the lives of people all over India and

abroad.

Apart from the factories in Mumbai and Bangalore, Parle also has factories in Bahadurgarh, Haryana and

Neemrana, Rajasthan. These are the largest biscuit and confectionery plants in the country. Additionally,

Parle Products also has 10 manufacturing units and 75 manufacturing units on contract.

Milestones - The Decades of Progress

1929:The first year of operation. Our only assets were hard work and hope.

1939:Ten years of determined effort brought results. Things began to take shape. And we tried

even harder.

1949:The formative years were over. We had come of age.

1974:Here was the first evidence of Parle as it is today.

Page 5: Parle

Hygiene is the precursor to every process at Parle. From husking the wheat and melting the sugar to

delivering the final products to supermarkets and store shelves nationwide, care is taken at every step to

ensure the best product of long-lasting freshness. Every batch of biscuits, confectioneries & snacks are

thoroughly checked by expert staff, using the most modern equipment. This ensures consistent and perfect

quality across the nation and abroad.

Concentrating on consumer tastes and preferences, the Parle brand has grown from strength to strength

ever since its inception. The factories at Bahadurgarh, Haryana and Neemrana, Rajasthan are the largest

biscuit and confectionery plants in the country. The factory in Mumbai was the first to be set up, followed

soon by the one in Bangalore, Karnataka. Parle also has 10 manufacturing units for biscuits and 75

manufacturing units for confectioneries on contract.

An in-depth understanding of the Indian consumer psyche has helped Parle develop a marketing philosophy

that reflects the needs of the Indian masses. With products created bearing in mind both health and taste,

Parle products equally appeal to fun loving kids & youth. Even today, the great tradition of taste and nutrition

is consistent in every pack on the store shelves. The value-for-money positioning allows people from all

classes and age groups to enjoy Parle products to the fullest.

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Since 1929, Parle Products, with its wide platter of biscuits and sweets is also actively engaged in changing

and uplifting the social face of India. As part of its Corporate Social Responsibility Policy, Parle is keenly

involved in the overall development of the younger generation, with a focused endeavor to build the New

Face of India and spread happiness and joy all over.

Some of our best habits, as we said, are also our oldest. Many of them date back to the last decade of the

19th century. It was in the 1880’s that the late Mohanlal Dayal came to Bombay from his village Pardi, in the

district of Surat, to work as a dusting boy at a silk merchant’s. What a long way that bright little boy came!

First, the hard apprenticeship and the graduation to Master Cutter, then the elite tailoring establishment that

eventually developed into a wholesale business to finally, the new business in confections and biscuits.

Always, the accent was on self-sufficiency. Mohanlal Dayal was not just a progressive and astute

businessman. He never gave in to the sense of indifference that often comes with the commercial outlook.

Page 16: Parle

All through his life, he was deeply conscious of his duties towards society and the community. He built the

Shri Mohanlal Dayal Prasuti Graha and General Hospital in Pardi, which is maintained through charity trusts

set up by him. The Shri Mohanlal Dayal Sanatorium and Hostel at Matunga in Bombay is another such

institution. In his memory and after his example, his sons have donated significant sums to set up the

Chauhan Institute of Science at Vile Parle.

Parle Centre of Excellence, as an institution, is dedicated to enriching the lives of people by conducting

various cultural programs across all regions to facilitate the all round development of children. Every year,

Parle organizes Saraswati Vandana in the state of West Bengal during the festival of Saraswati Puja, inviting

schools from all across the state to participate. The event is one of much fanfare and celebration, keeping

alive the culture and traditions. The involvement in cultural activities has seen the inception of Golu Galata in

Tamil Nadu, held during Navratri. It provides all the members of a household a platform to showcase their

creativity and be judged by eminent personalities. Thousands of families participate and celebrate the

occasion on a grand scale.

These events give us a chance to interact with children on a one-to-one basis, and promote our belief of fun

and health for the whole family.

Golu Galata

Parle Products is in the business of manufacturing and marketing biscuits and

confectioneries since 1929. Over these years Parle has been active across regions conducting various

social activities as part of our Corporate Social Responsibility policy.

Page 19: Parle

In Tamil Nadu, traditionally, women decorate various dolls made of clay during Navaratri celebrations by

setting up 7-9 steps. This display is well decorated and friends and relatives are invited to witness the same.

Through a detailed research, Parle found that due to time pressures, this tradition is slowly dying and is

getting restricted to a select few households. 

Thus, to revive the fading event, Parle introduced this novel promotion called Parle Golu Galata contest.

Golu means Doll & Galata means Dhammal.

PARLE GOLU GALATA CONTEST - 2008

The price distribution to felicitate the winners of Parle Golu Galatta 2008 was conducted at Kamaraj

Some of the most eminent personalities of Chennai’s social, entertainment and lifestlye circuits were present

to make this a star-studded grand event.

Famous movie actress Poornima Bhagyaraj, Venkatesh and Nisha, of the popular dance show Jodi No.1,

the versatile television actor Preeti Srinivas, eminent star gazer Kaliyan Narayana, Selvhi from Kumudham

Bhakti and the dynamic social activist Daksha Raghunathan were the chief guests for the show.

The melodious playback singer Ms. Vinaya conducted the program for the evening with more than a 1000

people attending the function.

The Kalakapovathu Yarr finalist Siva Karthikeyan, Arjun and Vadivel Balaji ensured that the audiences were

kept in splits with their rib-tickling stories, jokes and anecdotes.

Champion little-league singer Ms. Oviya wowed all the adults present with her vocal histrionics and singing

talent with Avigna giving a breathtakingly choreographed contemporary dance performance.

An AV of all the prize-winning Golus and their proud winners was also played at the show, with the children

from the 3 winning schools ensuring that there was never a dull moment throughout the evening.

The award ceremony was a grand success
