 INTRODUCTION

 1. Introduction of FMCG
1.1 What is FMCG?

Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCGs) are defined as products which are sold quickly at
relatively low costs. These are mainly non-durable consumer goods which are required
extremely frequently and in some cases almost daily by a consumer. This sector covers a
wide range of products such as detergents, toiletries, food products, tooth paste, shampoos,
beverages, milk etc.

1.2 Some of the Major FMCG Companies in India are:

*ITC

*Hindustan Unilver

*Nestle India

*Godrej Consumer products Ltd

*Dabur India Ltd

1.3 FMCG products have following characteristics:

1. Individual products are of small value. However all FMCG products put
together form a significant part of an individual’s monthly budget. For example a
consumer biscuits, tooth paste, shampoos, food products etc. in a month. Each of these
individual items are not very expensive ,however the total cost of all these products
account for about 97% of a consumer’s monthly budget.

2. A Consumer tends to purchase FMCG products extremely frequently and whenever

the products are required by him. The reason for this is that most of the products are
perishable and non-durable and hence a consumer buys them as and when the need
arises.

8
3. A consumer does not spend too much time in making his/her decision when it
comes to buying a FMCG product.

4. Advertising and suggestions of friends and neighbours usually play a major role for
trial of new FMCG products.

5. FMCG products come in wide range and often cater to necessities, comfort and
luxury items. Since FMCG products cover such a wide range, they often cater to the
entire population. Hence price and income elasticity of demand varies across products
and consumer.

At present the FMCG Industry in India is worth US$13.1 Billion and it is the
fourth largest sector in the Indian Economy. This sector generates 5% of the total
factory employment in the country and is creating employment of 3 million people,
especially in small towns and rural India. Despite all this, the penetration levels as
well as per capita consumption in most product categories are very low, indicating the
untapped market potential.

2 Distinguishing Features of the FMCG Industry

2.1 Low Capital Intensity

Most of the product categories that come under the FMCG sector do not require a
major investment in plant, machinery and other fixed assets. Since the investment in
plants is not very high, it is highly unlikely that there would be any product shortage
due to lack of capacity. Also, the business has low working capital intensity as bulk of
sales from manufacturing take place on a cash basis.

2.2 High Initial Launch Cost

Even though the FMCG is a low capital intensive sector, new products requires a large
front ended investment in product development, market research, test making and
launch. The biggest challenge in launching any FMCG product is creating its
awareness amongst consumers. Hence enormous initial expenditure is spent on its

9
advertisements, free samples and product promotions. The launch costs in some cases
as high as 50-100% of the revenue in the first year as compared to a mere 5-12% for
the existing brands.

2.3 Technology

The basic technology for manufacturing is easily available and is also fairly stable.
Modifications and changes in technology rarely change the basic process. Despite all
this, global FMCG players pay huge amounts on research and development (R&D)
due to their ability to spread cost over the wider base of their global operations.

2.4 Marketing Drive

Marketing of products plays one of the most important roles in the FMCG sector. This
is because most FMCG companies have to reach out to the masses and compete with
several other players at the same time. Most of these players are offering the same
goods or products and hence the perceived differences are greater than the real
differences in the market.

2.5 Market Research

The purchase decision of any consumer is mostly influenced by the consumer’s

perception about the brand. Other factors such as changing fashions, change in
income, change in lifestyle also plays a major role in the purchase decision. However
FMCG products are rarely differentiated on technical or functional basis. Hence
market research and test marketing becomes inevitable. As a result, due to increasing
competition, companies are spending enormous amount of money on product
launches.

10
3. Success Factors of FMCG Products

3.1 Brand Equity

Brand equity refers to the intangible asset in the form of brand names. The consumer’s
loyalty for a particular brand is due to the perception that the product has distinctively
superior and consistent quality and also satisfies his/her specific needs. Further provides
better value for money than other competing brands. In FMCG products, brand equities are
relatively stronger as the consumer is reluctant to try unknown brands/unbranded products as
most of these products are for personal use. It is often difficult to differentiate a product on
technical or functional grounds and therefore little reason to switch from a known brand. A
successful brand generates strong cash flows, which enables the owner of the brand to
reinvest a part of in it form of aggressive advertisements/promotion to keep up the superiority
of the brand. The worth of a brand is manifested in the consumer’s insistence on a particular
brand or willingness to pay a price premium for the preferred brand.

3.2 Distribution Network

In FMCG sector, one of the most critical success factors is the ability to build, develop and
maintain a robust distribution network. Availability near consumer is vital for wider
penetration as most products are low units and are frequently purchased. Distribution network
refers to the consumer buying points where products are available (almost always). It takes
enormous time and effort to build a chain of stockists, retailers, dealers etc and establish their
loyalties. There are entry barriers for a new entrant as a new product is typically slow moving
and has lesser consumer demand. Therefore dealers/retailers are reluctant to allocate
recourses and time. Establishes players use their established network to inhibit new entrants.
Thus the distribution factor is the most critical factor which at times even drives the brand
equity factor.

3.3 Understanding Consumer Behaviour

Producing what the consumer wants and customising it as per their needs has now become a
critical success factor for the FMCG Industry in today’s time where there are several
competing brands producing the same product. So to outshine, understanding the Consumer
behaviour towards a particular product has become very essential. Companies spend quite a

11
huge amount on this research just to deliver the best to the customers and keep the success for
its products going. The behaviour of customers keep changing with time thus regular
monitoring of this behaviour is done by companies so as they don’t lose out on their existing
loyal customers but even gain new potential customers by producing goods as per their needs
and requirement

3.4 Importance of Super Markets in FMCG Industry

Grocery Stores, Super Markets are the face from where the customer actually buys his
necessity products. In today’s fast moving time customers does not want to spend much time
hopping from one shop to another just to buy the basic items, thus with the concept of Super
Markets the customer is given with all the choices and all products under one roof which
minimises his shopping time and gives variety options at the same time. Some Big names in
these markets are: BIG BAZZAR, EASY DAY, D-MART, RELIANCE FRESH, FOOD
BAZZAR, SPENCER’S, SAFAL.

3.4.1 These Markets have following distinguishing features:

 High quality, Variety Products under one roof

 FMCG ranging from food, milk products, bakeries, toiletries, stationary etc all are
available under one roof
 Special discounts are also offered on selected products on the basis of day, time. For
example after 7 pm some stores offer some selective discount on milk and bakery
products.
 Big Brands are associated with these super markets which establish confidence in
customer’s mind easily. For example Reliance fresh is an undertaking of Reliance
Industries, Safal shops are opened by Mother Dairy which instantly reflect quality in the
products offered by them
 In metro city’s like Delhi-Mumbai-Chennai-Kolkata etc these markets have overtaken
the small grocery stores
 Customer Care and Staff help is kept as prime concern in supermarkets to deliver best to
the customer

12
  The Retail Market of FMCG products has seen a new breeze with opening of these
markets as it fastens the distribution process and delivers products to customers at much
faster pace.

Conclusion

FMCG products are necessity products which a consumer purchases within a short interval of
time. The companies producing these products needs to establish a strong distribution
network so as to deliver the products to the customers on time along with building a strong
brand equity for its products as competion in this industry is growing at a very fast pace. With
Super Markets like Big Bazaar, Easy Day, Reliance Fresh which keep all these necessity
products under one roof are giving tough competion to local grocery stores.

 RESEARCH
METHODOLOGY

21
3. Research Methodology

In the process of achieving the objectives of the study, it is very essential to follow a
systematic and scientific approach so as to present and interpret the results of the study or
investigation conduct. This chapter on methodology consists of the details of the description
of the study area, the sampling procedure, nature and sources of data, the analytical tools and
techniques employed and other information to support the existing results like secondary
sources of information required to keep the reader inferred for reference and documentation.
The methodology chapter is discussed under the following heads.

3.1 Nature and Sources of data:

In order to evaluate the objectives of the study, data was collected from both primary and
secondary sources.

Primary data:
The primary data forms an important component of any research investigation. As the
study focuses on the preferences of Customer over purchase of Mapro product, behaviour of
customers towards the juices purchase decisions and adoption of brands, a subjective
phenomenon focuses on the behaviour of Customer. Hence, greater thrust was given to collect
information at Customer’s level. The primary data was collected using a pre-structured
questionnaire encompassing a number of variables/parameters which could explain their
behaviour towards purchase of Mapro product and useful information of Regarding Mapro
Food product.

Secondary data:

The secondary data required were collected from company officials, Books, Magazines
and Internet.

Sampling design:
In order to proceed with investigation as per the objectives stated, it was necessary to
adopt an appropriate sampling design. It was proposed at the outset to study the consumer

22
behaviour towards Mapro Food product and for this purpose the secondary source data of
company field officials were used.

Selection of District:

The area under fruits in Maharashtra when observed indicated that the southern
district of Maharashtra namely Pune and Satara reported to have the highest area under fruit
production. Hence, it was allotted by MAPRO for the study so as to investigate into the
research problem.

Geographical Information of Pune District:

Pune is situated in Maharashtra state of India. Pune city is the district headquarters. In the
most recent census on 2011, the total population of the district was 9,426,959, making it the
fourth most populous district in India (out of 640). Urban population comprises 58.08% of
the total population. The current population of Pune urban agglomerate is over 5 million.
Pune District is in the western region in Maharashtra in India. It is bounded by Thane
District to the northwest, Raigad District to the west, Satara District to the south, Sholapur
District to the southeast, and Ahmednagar District to the north and northeast. Pune district
lies in the Western Ghats or Sahyadri mountain range and it extends on to the Deccan Plateau
on the east. Pune stands on the leeward side of the Western Ghats. Pune is at an altitude of
559m.(1863 ft.). Pune district is located between 17.5° to 19.2° North and 73.2° to 75.1° East.
In Pune district, there are two municipal corporations, namely Pune Municipal Corporation
(PMC) and Pimpri-Chinchawad Municipal Corporation (PCMC).

Pimpri Chinchwad is located at the West of Pune city, touching the Pune- Mumbai National
highway. The corporation covers the area of Nigdi, Akurdi, Pimpri, Chinchwad and Bhosari.
The said area is developed by MIDC as an industrial zone.

Climate
Average rainfall in the district is 600 to 700 mm. This is usually during the monsoon months
from July – October. Moderate temperatures are mainly observed here. The rainfall is
unpredictable in tune with the Indian monsoon. Summers here begin from early March to
July. Summers are dry and hot. The temperature ranges from 20 °C to 38 °C, though at the
peak they may reach 40 °C.

23
From November to February, is the winter season. Temperatures at the peak drop to single
digits but usually they hover around 7 °C to 12 °C sometimes lowers up to 3 °C. January to
March are the months with moderate temperatures. In year due rainfall stress in June, and up
to 20 September agriculture sector come in danger.

Economy
It is an industrial centre as well as an agriculture based economy. It is one of the IT
destinations of India. There are many automotive manufacturing businesses in Pune district

Selection of Consumer:
In order to initiate first-hand information using primary source techniques on various
variables in the purchase of Food processing product as well as Mapro product , brand
awareness, brand attribute, customer loyalty and trust of consumers on MAPRO food
product. The consumer was selected randomly from pune which come under various D-Marts
