PEOPLE POWER: AMUL'S SECRET OF SUCCESS
The system succeeded mainly because it provides an assured market at remunerative prices for
producers' milk besides acting as a channel to market the production enhancement package. What's
more, it does not disturb the agro-system of the farmers. It also enables the consumer an access to
high quality milk and milk products. Contrary to the traditional system, when the profit of the
business was cornered by the middlemen, the system ensured that the profit goes to the participants
for their socio-economic upliftment and common good.
Looking back on the path traversed by Amul, the following features make it a pattern and model for
emulation elsewhere.
The Union looks after policy formulation, processing and marketing of milk, provision of technical
inputs to enhance milk yield of animals, the artificial insemination service, veterinary care, better
feeds and the like - all through the village societies. Basically the union and cooperation of people
brought Amul into fame i.e. AMUL (ANAND MILK UNION LIMITED), a name which suggest
THE TASTE OF INDIA.Amul sells 35 million litres of ice-cream valued at more than Rs 200 crore
out of a total branded ice-cream market of 100 million litres worth Rs 600 crore. The Amul ice

1- 2 year. Presently in 1999- 00 it is estimated at worth of Rs15- 16bn. This growth rate is expected
to continue for another next 2- 3 years because of lower base.

1. Amul - Market Leader with share of 40%
2. HUL - Kwality Walls - 2nd biggest player
3. Mother Diary
4. Arun - Chennai Based Hatsun Agro Product
5. Metro Daily - Kolkata based
6. Aavin - Tamil Nadu based
Recent Happenings
1. HUL's Moo (Nutritional Ice Cream) - targeted at Kids
2. As Mother Dairy has competency cold chain distribution as they have Safal brand (frozen peas,
corn, juices and mixed vegetables) under their portfolio, they have expanded from Delhi to
Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Punjab, Rajasthan, UP & Uttaranchal. Due to this and other brand
extensions in the pipeline, Mother Diary expects their turnover by 20% this year over their present
size of Rs. 2800 Rs. Cr.
3. Aavin, the cooperative sector milk and dairy products marketer in Tamil Nadu, has launched a
low sugar variant of ice creams in the market. According to an official press release, the ice cream
`without added sugar' is ideal for diabetics and safe for children and mothers-to-be. This variant has
just 80 calories and has 16 mg of sweetener against 8,000 mg of sugar in the traditional ice creams.

the release said
4. GCMMF launched its pro-biotic ice creams that have live beneficial culture that confer
beneficial health effects such as improving immunity and digestion and strengthening bones. It also
introduced a sugar-free ice cream range and is planning a Web site on ice creams. There two ranges
are - Amul Prolife and Amul Sugar free. According to Mr. R.S. Sodhi, GM Marketing, Amul,
Amul hopes to build the pro-biotic range into a Rs 100- crore brand within the next two-
11
three years. While Amul had earlier tested this market segment through the launch of an isabgol-
enriched ice cream, this is company's first full-fledged attempt at capturing a good share of the pro-
biotic enriched foods market in India. Both the brands are available in 125 ml (Rs 15), 500 ml and
1.25 litre (Rs 120) packs in five flavours, vanilla with chocolate sauce, strawberry, chocolate, shahi

Rs 15 lakh in each of these outlets.
Few Brands/ Target Consumers
1. Youth Centric - Chills
2. Kids - Moo
3. Teenagers - Cornett
4. Health Conscious - Amul Sugar free & ProLife
This summer mother diary targeted children with the baseline — `Jagaye Andar ka Bandar' while it
is luring adults with the message `Give In'.
Interesting piece of information: Hawking is not allowed in Mumbai which makes 1/3rd of business
for HLL. Rest is contributed by retail outlets
Future of Ice Cream Market in India
Ice Cream market will expand with increase in number of malls - HUL has been increasing their ice
cream outlets - Swirl. Few years consumers use to go out for walk after dinner and use to buy ice
creams from hawkers. But now consumer who often visit malls for entertainment
prefer to buy ice creams during different times of the day as it is visible upfront and feel like
spending Rs. 50 for that tasty chocolate swirl with cake and nuts. As marketers are understanding the
12
different needs of consumers, be it health conscious people, kids, youngsters, young etc, and coming
up with products specific for them... with portfolio of flavors, consumer today has plethora of
options at hand to choose from and therefore high probability of buying one more scoop of ice
cream. Also with increasing wallet size and innovative modern retail formats, it has definately given
a philip to the ice cream industry in India.

(3) Determine the information needed.
(4) Determine the sources of information.
(5) Decide research methods.
(6) Tabulate, Analyze and interpret the data.
(7) Prepare research report.
(8) Follow-up the study.
(1) Define the problem and its objectives :- This includes an effective job in planning
and designing a research project that will provide the needed information. It also includes
the establishment of a general framework of major marketing elements such as the industry
elements, competitive elements, marketing elements and company elements.
(2) Identify the problem :- Identifying the problem involves getting acquainted with the
company, its business, its products and market environment, advertising by means of
library consultation and extensive interviewing of company’s officials.
(3) Determining the specific Information needed :- In general the producer, the
manufacturer, the wholesaler and the retailer try to find out four things namely :-
(1) What to sell(2) When to sell(3) Where to sell(4) How to sell
(4) Determine the sources of information :-
(a) Primary Data :- Primary datas are those which are gathered specially for the project at hand,
directly – e.g. through questionnaires & interviews. Primary data sources include company
salesman, middleman, consumers, buyers, trade association’s executives & other
businessman & even competitors.
(b) Secondary Data :- These are generally published sources, which have been collected
originally for some other purpose. Source are internal company records, government
publication, reports & publication, reports & journals, trade, professional and business

INTRODUCTION OF VADILAL
The first ice-cream factory in the world was set up in the year 1851 by a vocational chief
named Jacob Fussily. The first hot Fudge Sundae was served at Browns in Hollywood.
Ice cream cone were an accidental innovation. During a St.Louis Exposition in 1904, when
an Ice cream vendor ran out of bowls, his pastry-maker neighbor rolled in it crisp wafer. They called
this ‘Cornupopias’, and people instantly took to it. The duo might have not imagined that they were
in fact pioneering a product sub-gern, thought.
In India, one of the earliest Ice cream related anecdotes goes thus: a traveler once presented
Emperor Amber crude of Ice cream (fruit juice sprinkled on Ice). The emperor liked it so much; he
ordered that he be served the same every morning.
It is said that gagantic blog of Ice had to be extricated from Kashmir and carted across the
land for over a month, to Delhi. By the time it reached Delhi, it would melt down to small cup-full,
and emperor could relish his cup of Ice Cream every morning.

HISTORY OF ORGANIZATION
Today, the name Vadilal conjures images of lip-smacking ice cream in a whole gamut of
flavours. Vadilal spells quality, availability, variety and state-of-the-art machinery and equipment. It
has, however, been a long journey for the group, which traces its origins way back to 1907, when a
certain unassuming gentleman, by the name of Vadilal Gandhi, the great-grand father of Virendra R
Gandhi, Rajesh R Gandhi and Devanshu L Gandhi, started a soda fountain. He passed on the
business to his son, Ranchod Lal, who ran a one-man show, and, with a hand cranked machine,
started a small retail outlet in 1926. Eventually, Ranchod Lal's sons, Ramchandra and Lakshman,
inherited the business and they were instrumental in giving a new direction to the company. The duo
imparted a new vision to the venture and infused a spirit of calculated risk-taking into the company.
As a result, by the 1970s, the Vadilal Company had already evolved into a modern corporate entity.
"In 1972-73, the company had 8-10 outlets in Ahmedabad. Gradually, we moved from the
city to other parts of Gujarat. By 1985, the company moved towards neighbouring states like
Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh. But the expansion was undertaken very methodically and we spent
five to six years in spreading our business and then consolidating it" says Shri Ramchandrabhai
Gandhi (Chairman).
