SYED DANIAL HASHMI1. Costumer Value Chain
Holistic marketing is integrating the value exploration, value creation, and value delivery activities with
the purpose of building long-term mutually satisfying relationships and co prosperity among key
stakeholders.
The different dimensions of the matrix for Amul are summarized below.
Cognitive Space:
It reflects the needs of the consumers. Customers need in this case is easily available and
hygienic dairy products. They wanted such kind of dairy products that are good for health, the milk that
should be healthful to drink, germless and should be pure. Due to the provision of impure milk by the
Doodhis (person who sell fresh milk) people were losing their trust on them as well as the fresh milk
thats why they wanted such a kind of milk-provider Company that should provide them good quality,
pasteurized, and dehydrated Milk.
Customer Benefits:
Costumers benefit is what costumers derive from the product. Mean the net benefit a costumer
derives from a product after deducting the cost. Amul is providing well-known dairy brands consistently
for the last 66 Years. It has developed a customer confidence in its products. The Indian costumer is
deriving both physical and psychological benefits from it, physical in the sense of good health and
psychological in the sense that costumer knows that they are having a product that is not harmful for
their health. Indeed, its good for health. So, costumers are deriving a bundle of benefits from Amul,s
products. It has fulfilled their need, provided them with hygienic and healthy dairy brands at a normal
price.
Customer-Relationship Management:
Amul is managing the customer relationships in an excellent way. It is demonstrated by the
profitability of the company. Amul consistently works on the quality and other than that it also
introduces new products on a regular base. GCMMF continuously increases the product of the product
line Amul. Managing costumer relationship is a complete art and science in itself. It is really very much
difficult to make and maintain good costumer relationship. First of all, they shall made good relationswith the costumers. It can do say in many ways like the company shall value its customers, it shall give
the costumer a feel of ease and of homely product. They once the good relations have been made with
the costumers the company shall maintain them. Making good relations is no doubt very tough but
managing them is much more tougher then making them. Amul has created and maintained that kind of
relationship very well. Indian costumer values the products of Amul a lot. For them now it means their
own taste, Amul-the taste of India.

Internal Resource Management:
IRM helps to integrate major business processes i.e. primary and supporting marketing
activities. Amul has not compromised profitability over distribution. They have maintained their
profitability. They distribute all the money among their partners. They ask their partners ( i.e. farmers)
to invest money and then earn profit which would be distributed among all the partners. One very
interesting thing about amul is that the whole governing personnel (the executive body) is farmers. This
helps Amul a lot in different matters.
Resource Space:
Resource Space includes horizontal partnerships, with partners chosen for their ability to
exploit related market opportunities. In case of Amul its products are all dairy products and its partners
are the farmers of India. So, Amul wants that its farmers should have a complete knowledge of animal
husbandry. One of the main objectives of the co-operative is the economic development of the
producer-members (farmers) by efficient organization of the marketing of milk and dairy produce,
providing them with veterinary medicines, cattle fields, vaccines, and other animal products.
Business Partners:
Amul selects only those farmers and make them partners who are delivering high quality milk
consistently. The company has set a standard for milk and if any farmer doesnot fulfill that standard the
company does not get milk from them. By standard here I mean the amount of fat, protein, water and
other different things present in milk. In the rural areas most of the farmers are women. So, Amul works
on women empowerment and this empowerment section is described in BPM.
Business Partner Management:
The suppliers of Amul are the farmers who have those buffaloes and cows that yield milk. Amul
make its suppliers its partners in order to create value. In Indian subcontinent mostly rural men are
farmers which are called as Doodhior Doodh ka Beopariin India. In the rural areas, mostly women have
the responsibility to look after her home and do all the work. She also has the responsibility to feed the
animals and get milk from them. Amul knows this thing and thus is working on women empowerment.
Amul model of dairy development is a three tired dairy structure with the dairy co-operative society at
village level, district and state federation. This is given with the help of picture below:

2. Value creation and Delivery response of Emmental cheese
Value creation by any company consists of 3 broad categories that are choosing the value, providing and
communicating it. The different steps of this sequence for Emmental cheese by Amul are described
below:
Choose the Value
Costumer Segmentation:
Segmentation is the most important step in the value delivery process. Segmentation helps
the marketer to understand and went in to the selected segment that is its target market. For Emmental
cheese, Amul would have segmented the market very carefully. It is really important to segment the
market for such a kind of product that is a premium product in a country like India where the majority ofpopulation belongs to low socio-economic class. For Emmental cheese what I think Amul should go for
Psychographic Segmentationand should segment the market on the basis of Social class ( lower lower,
upper lower, working class, middle class, upper middles, lower uppers, upper uppers), Lifestyle
(Achievers, Strivers, Survivors)and Personality (Compulsive, gregarious, authoritarian, ambitious)
Market Focus:
As stated earlier, Emmental cheese is premium brand of Amul. So, the targeted market for this
cheese would beurban upper middle, lower uppers and upper uppers class of Indiathat is rich enough
and is versatile enough to buy and to taste different product. Those people who can afford it and those
who can accept changes in life and tastes.
Value Positioning:
Value positioning consists of the 4 ps of Marketing. Value is basically the net benefit that a
costumer derives from a product. So, value position stands for how the company is creating value for its
costumer.
Product:
Emmental is a Swiss cheese with dry flavor and hazelnut aroma. This cheese is normally available in
the form of a wheel that has convex edges and is covered by a dry-hard rind which is golden-yellow incolor. This skin is to be removed before consumption. Emmental is a ready to eat salver cheese and goes
best with wines & cocktails. As opposed to the commonly available processed cheddar cheese,
Emmental is actually a `live' cheese. It is a 100% vegetarian coagulating enzyme.

SYED DANIAL HASHMIPrice:
Emmental cheese is a premium brand of Amul so it is prices at a bit more price than the normal cheese
and its price of 400g pack is 160 indian rupee. The price is high but the company justifies it with
providing the quality in the product that is Emmental cheese.
Place:
As it is a preminum brand of Amul so it must be placed in all top Gourmet Stores/APOs/MFS in MajorMetros and Mini Metros
Promotion:
Promotional campaign by Amul for Emmental cheese was very interesting and attention-seeking. It
focused on the promotion of the Swiss taste. Once if a person eats it he would get addicted to it.
Now, here they are promoting the Emmental cheese in an excellent way. Royal way of its serving with
grapes wine and can also be used for different things.

9Provide the Value
Product-development:
In this phase, the actual product is developed to be sold later on. In this case it involves the full process
in which the cheese is made by milk.
Shelf life is another important thing in this respect. Emmental cheese has a shelf life of 45 days.
Service-development:
Service- development is also a major step in providing the value. After the product has been made, its
design and packaging has been finalized it is important to set some kind of services associated with that
product. A strong return policy for the Emmental cheese was must and the Amul provided it.
Pricing:
Pricing is one of the most important decisions that have to be taken by the firm. Pricing is very sensitive
decision especially Indian consumers are very much price conscious and sensitive. Furthermore it is a
general perception among the masses that a product with higher price will be better than the other with
the product with low price. However, the price should be set keeping in view all the aspects, the cost of
producing that product and all other marketing activities plus the costumers perceived value. As the
targeted market of Amul for Emmental cheese is the upper class of the society who can afford such a
kind of premium brand and are ready to accept different taste so the price should not have been low
and thats why the company set the price of Emmental cheese 160 for 400g pack of cheese but Amul
also justifies this price by giving quality and the original Swiss taste in its cheese.
Sourcing Making:
It is the step in which the company chooses the persons from which it will get the raw material for its
products which will further be refined to made final product. Amul as it does get milk from farmers and
the milk is also world class. It chooses the farmers who provide high quality milk. It is choosing that
source which is extremely good. The rural farmers who have their own buffaloes which produce fresh
milk are the source of Emmental cheese.
Distributing Servicing:
Distribution deals with how the product is distributed among the targeted costumers? How does our
product will reach the final consumer? Now, Emmental cheese is a kind of product of product for which
Amul should use a following kind of distribution channel.

10/13
SYED DANIAL HASHMI
Because, Emmental cheese has a target market of upper class which usually visits the big malls, metros
and retail giants, chains for shopping. So, the company shall make these big metros of urban areas there
distributors which would cheese to the final consumer. There is no need to place the product on small
retail stores.
Communicate the Value
Sales force:
Sales force basically refers to the persons involved in the sale of a product. Here the sales force
means the persons in fact the whole management system that is involved in selling Emmental cheese.
Sales Promotion:
Emmental cheese is a new product for Indian costumer and market. To promote Emmental
cheese among people, Amul needs to tell people more about this product. For this purpose what they
can do is to set an introductory price for the cheese and place it on the same huge retail outlets where
they are going to place their product in future but the product should be well appeared to the people. It
is a premium brand of Amul as stated earlier so one thing that cant happen for sure is that they offer
Tasting of Emmental cheese.
Advertising:
Advertising means to tell the masses about the product. Now the advertisement of Emmental
cheese shall be in such a way that it should be very catchy and shall also represent the royal taste and
royal values. Some of the ads in the print media of Emmental cheese are below:

Now, if look deeply at this promo it is very clear that Amul is promoting the royal taste of Swiss cheese
and Royal values associated with Emmental cheese. There is a clock placed on the table with an
expensive pen and paper. What all that basically represents is the lifestyle of the rich peoplewho have
to deal with pens and papers and have to write letters and are time conscious.

industry Nestle is producing a wide range of products targeting from small children to the old fellows of

purchases of Nestle. It has now become the biggest company in the respective industry.

there are certain things from which AMUL can definitely get something to deal with. Nestle at first
launched Milk Pak and its factories are at Sheikupura and Kabirwala.
The milk collection process of Nestle is firstly explained with the help of this picture:
