Chapter-1 Introduction

1.1History of PARLE
In 1929 a small company by the name of Parle products
emerged in British dominated India at Parle, world's largest selling
biscuits, started in Vile Parle. The intent was to spread joy and
cheer to children and adults alike, all over the country with its
sweets and candies. The company knew that it wouldn’t be an easy
task, but they decided to take the brave step.

A small factory was set up in the


suburbs of Mumbai, to manufacture
sweets and toffees. A decade later it
was upgraded to manufacture biscuits
as well. Since then, the Parle name
has grown in all directions, won
international fame and has been
sweetening people's lives all over
India and abroad.

A part from the factories in Mumbai and Bangalore Parle also has
factories in Bahadurgarh in Haryana and Neemrana in Rajasthan,
which are the largest biscuit and confectionery plants in the
country. Additionally, Parle Products also has 7 manufacturing units
and 51 manufacturing units on contract.

1.2 About the Company


A cream colored yellow stripped wrapper with a cute baby photo
containing 10 – 12 biscuits with the company’s name printed in Red and you
know these are Parle G biscuits. Times changed, variety of biscuits did come
and go but nothing has changed with these biscuits. Yes, the size of their
packing has definitely changed but for the consumers good as these are money
savers pack. The Parle name conjures up fond memories across the length and
breadth of the country. After all, since 1929, the people of India have been
growing up on Parle biscuits & sweets.

Initially a small factory was set up in the suburbs of Mumbai city, to


manufacture sweets and toffees. The year was 1929 and the market was
dominated by famous international brands that were imported freely. Despite
the odds and unequal competition, this company called Parle Products, survived
and succeeded, by adhering to high quality and improvising from time to time.

A decade later, in 1939, Parle Products began manufacturing biscuits, in


addition to sweets and toffees. Having already established a reputation for
quality, the Parle brand name grew in strength with this diversification. Parle
Glucose and Parle Monaco were the first brands of biscuits to be introduced,
which later went on to become leading names for great taste and quality.

For around 75 years, Parle have been manufacturing quality biscuits and
confectionery products. Over the years Parle has grown to become a multi
million-dollar company with many of the products as market leaders in their
category. The recent introduction of Hide & Seek chocolate chip biscuits is a
product of innovation and caters to a new taste, being India’s first ever
chocolate-chip biscuits.

All Parle products are manufactured under most hygienic conditions.


Great care is exercised in the selection and quality control of raw material and
standards ensured at every stage of the manufacturing process.

Parle Products has 4 manufacturing units for biscuits and confectionaries


at Mumbai, Haryana, Rajasthan and Karnataka. It also has 14 manufacturing
units for biscuits & 5 manufacturing units for confectioneries, on contract. All
these factories are located at strategic locations, so as to ensure a constant
output & easy distribution.

Today, Parle enjoys a 40% share of the total biscuit market and a 15%
share of the total confectionary market, in India.The marketing mix of Parle for
this project has been studied from the point of view of Parle biscuits; mainly
Parle-G and Parle hide & seek.

1.3 PARLE G - THE EVOLUTION!!!


Parle-G has been a strong household name across India. The great
taste, high nutrition, and the international quality, makes Parle-G a
winner. No wonder, it's the undisputed leader in the biscuit category for
decades. Parle-G is consumed by people of all ages, from the rich to the
poor, living in cities & in villages. While some have it for breakfast, for
others it is a complete wholesome meal. For some it's the best
accompaniment for chai, while for some it's a way of getting charged
whenever they are low on energy. Because of this, Parle-G is the
world's largest selling brand of biscuits.

Launched in the year 1939, it was one of the first brands of Parle
Products. It was called Parle Glucose Biscuits mainly to cue that it was a
glucose biscuit. It was manufactured at the Mumbai factory, Vile Parle
and sold in units of half and quarter pound packs.

The incredible demand led Parle to introduce the brand in special


branded packs and in larger festive tin packs. By the year 1949, Parle
Glucose biscuits were available not just in Mumbai but also across the
state. It was also sold in parts of North India. The early 50s produced
over 150 tones of biscuits produced in the Mumbai factory. Looking at the
success of Parle-G, a lot of other me-too brands were introduced in the
market. And these brands had names that were similar to Parle Glucose
Biscuits so that if not by anything else, the consumer would err in picking
the brand. This forced Parle to change the name from Parle Glucose
Biscuits to Parle-G.

Originally packed in the wax paper pack, today it is available in a


contemporary, premium BOPP pack with attractive side fins. The new
airtight pack helps to keep the biscuits fresh and tastier for a longer
period.

Parle-G was the only biscuit brand that was always in short supply.
It was heading towards becoming an all-time great brand of biscuit.
Parle-G started being advertised in the 80's. It was advertised mainly
through press ads. The communication spoke about the basic benefits of
energy and nutrition. In 1989, Parle-G released its Dadaji commercial,
which went on to become one of the most popular commercials for Parle-
G. The commercial was run for a period of 6 years.

Parle-G grew bigger by the minute. Be it the packs sold, the areas
covered or the number of consumers. It became a part of the daily lives
of many Indians. It wasn't a biscuit any more. It had become an icon.

Marketing Analysis of PARLE

The next level of communication associated the brand with the positive
values of life like honesty, sharing and caring.

In the year 1997, Parle-G sponsored the tele-serial of the Indian


superhero, Shaktimaan that went on to become a huge success. The
personality of the superhero matched the overall superb benefits of the
brand. Parle extended this association with Shaktimaan and gave away a
lot of merchandise of Shaktimaan, which was supported by POS and
press communication. The children just could not get enough of Parle-G
and Shaktimaan.

In the year 2002, it was decided to bring the brand closer to the
child who is a major consumer. A national level promo - `Parle-G Mera
Sapna Sach Hoga' was run for a period of 6 months. The promo was all
about fulfilling the dreams of children. There were over 5 lakh responses
and of that, over 300 dreams were fulfilled.

Dreams that were fulfilled ranged from trips to Disneyland at Paris &
Singapore; free ride on a chartered plane; 20 scholarships worth Rs
50,000; a special cricket coaching etc.

The year 2002 will go down as a special year in Parle-G's advertising


history. A year that saw the birth of G-Man - a new ambassador for Parle-
G. Not just a hero but also a super-hero that saves the entire world,
especially children from all the evil forces.
A campaign that is not just new to the audiences but one that
involves a completely new way of execution that is loved by children all
over the world – Animation To make the brand much more interesting
and exciting with children, it was decided to launch a premium version of
Parle-G called Parle-G Magix in the year 2002. Parle-G Magix is available
in two exciting tastes - ‘Cocoh’ and ‘Cashew’. The year 2002 also
witnessed the launch of Parle-G Milk Shakti, which has the nourishing
combination of milk and honey, especially launched for the southern
market.

1.6 THE MARKETING STRENGTH


The extensive distribution network, built over the years, is a major
strength for Parle Products. Parle biscuits & sweets are available to
consumers, even in the most remote places and in the smallest of
villages with a population of just 500.

Parle has nearly 1,500 wholesalers, catering to 4,25,000 retail


outlets directly or indirectly. A two hundred strong dedicated field force

The Parle marketing philosophy


emphasizes catering to the masses.
They constantly endeavor at designing
products that provide nutrition & fun to
the common man. Most Parle offerings
are in the low & mid-range price
segments. This is based on their
understanding of the Indian consumer
psyche. The value-for-money positioning
helps generate large sales volumes for
the products.

However, Parle Products also manufactures a variety of premium

Readiness stage Aware, interested

 Pattern of market segmentation


Preference: Clustered

If we divide the whole market


on basis of their preferences foe
sweetness and saltiness in the
biscuits then the possible outcome
would be that the preferences are
clustered near some tastes

i.e. the consumers would not


like to have something really vague
like 50%salty, 25%sweet and
25%creamy.That is why the
preferences are clustered and not
diffused wherein the preferences have to be very extreme and vague.
Parle as a company makes use of this clustered preferences and
manufactures biscuits for each and every cluster.

For e.g. Monaco for entirely salty biscuits and its latest product
Krackjack-cream is for sweet and salty taste.

4.2 Target Market Strategy of PARLE

M1 M2 M3

P3

(Figure:4.2)

PARLE Company as a whole inculcates SELECTIVE MARKET


SPECIALIZATION strategy.

 Target Marketing:

o Segmentation reveals only the firm’s opportunities. The firm now


has to Evaluate the various segments and decide how many and
which segments it can best serve.

 Evaluating Market Segments:

o A firm must look at three factors to evaluate market segments:


segment size and growth; segment structural attractiveness; and
company objectives and resources.

o The company must first collect and analyze data on current


segment sales, growth rates, and expected profitability for various
segments. It will be interested in segments that have the right
size and growth characteristics. But “right size and growth” is a
relative matter.

o There are several structural characteristics that affect long-run


segment attractiveness.

S.V. Institute of Management, 31


Semester: II, KADI [Batch 2008-10]
Marketing Analysis of PARLE

1. The segment is less attractive if there are several


strong, aggressive competitors.
2. The existence of many actual or potential substitute
products may limit prices and the profits that can be
earned.
3. The relative power of buyers also affects segment
attractiveness.
4. A segment may be less attractive if it contains powerful
suppliers who can control prices or reduce the quality or
quantity of ordered goods and services.

o The company must take into account its own objectives and
resources in relation to the segment. If a segment does not mesh
with the company’s long-run objectives, it can be dismissed.

o The company must take into consideration whether it has the


skills and resources needed to succeed in the market. The
company should enter only segments in which it can offer
superior value and gain advantage over competitors.

 Selecting Target Market Segments

o A target market consists of a set of buyers who share common


needs or characteristics that the company decides to serve.

o Target marketing can be carried out at several different levels.


Figure 4.2 shows that companies can target very broadly,
through undifferentiated marketing; very narrowly, in
micromarketing; or somewhere in between, which is
differentiated or concentrated marketing.

 In the above diagram we can say blue color represents the extent of
Parle-G i.e. it is 1 product for all the 3 markets and the green color is for
Hide & Seek where it is a product only for 1 market and the orange is for
other biscuits where the product is targeted for 2 markets.

4.3 Positioning Strategy of PARLE


 Positioning strategy
Parle is positioned in the minds of people as a value for price product
and also as a low-priced product.

 Differentiation strategy
For Parle-G the company has used channel and image differentiation
tools. Parle-G by far has the most intensive distribution coverage as
compared to any other biscuit company in India. Also the name PARLE
has an image that generates respect and a belief of good quality in
the minds of the buyers.

 A product’s position is the way the product is defined by the


consumers on important attributes; it is the place the product occupies
in consumers’ minds relative to competing products. It involves
implanting the brand’s unique benefits and differentiation in
customers’ minds.

 To simplify the buying process, consumers organize products, services,


and companies into categories and “position” them in their minds. A
product’s position is a complex set of perceptions, impressions, and
feelings that consumers have for the product compared with
competing products.

 Consumers will position products with or without the help of marketers.


So marketers must plan positions that will give their products the
greatest advantage in selected target markets, and then must design
marketing mixes to create these planned positions.

4.4 Packing of PARLE


 As in all other biscuits, packing plays an important role in Parle-G
too. The basic small packs are packed mechanically using
automated machines and are sealed using the Polly bag sealing
machine. These small packs are then manually packed into small
boxes and are sent through the conveyor belt to be packed in
large cartons. 160 packets are packed per minute. And in
one big box there are 160 Parle-G packets packed.

 Before, they used to bring the packaging material from outside


the company but now it is produced in the factory premises
itself. For export purpose the packets have different languages
print on them depending upon the geographical location &
demand of the people. Each factory has state-of-the-art
machinery with automatic printing & packaging facilities.

4.5 THE STRENGTH OF THE BRAND


 Over the years, Parle has grown to become a multi-million US
Dollar company. Many of the Parle products - biscuits or
confectionaries, are market leaders in their category and have
won acclaim at the Monde Selection, since 1971.

 Today, Parle enjoys a 40% share of the total biscuit market and a
15% share of the total confectionary market, in India. The Parle
Biscuit brands, such as, Parle-G, Monaco and Krackjack and
confectionery brands, such as, Melody, Poppins, Mangobite and
Kismi, enjoy a strong imagery and appeal amongst consumers.

 Be it a big city or a remote village of India, the Parle name


symbolizes quality, health and great taste! And yet, we know
that this reputation has been built, by constantly innovating and
catering to new tastes. This can be seen by the success of new
brands, such as, Hide & Seek, or the single twist wrapping of
Mango bite.

 In this way, by concentrating on consumer tastes and


preferences and emphasizing Research & Development, the
Parle brand grows from strength to strength.
