RISE IN POPULARITY During the Great Depression, Pepsi gained popularity following the introduction in 1929 of a 12- ounce bottle. Initially priced at 10 cents, sales were slow, but when the price was slashed to five cents, sales increased substantially. With a radio advertising campaign featuring the jingle Pepsi cola hits the spot/ Twelve full ounces, thats a lot/ Twice as much for a nickel, too/ Pepsi-Cola is the drink for you. Pepsi encouraged price-watching consumers to switch obliquely referring to the Coca-Cola standard of six ounces a bottle for the price of five cents (a nickel), instead of the 12 ounces Pepsi sold at the same price. Coming at a time of economic crisis, the campaign succeeded in boosting Pepsis status. In 1936 alone 500000000 bottles of Pepsi were consumed. From 1936 to 1938, Pepsi-Colas profits doubled. 2.

PRODUCTION PROCESS
The process of manufacture of Aerated water (soft drink) like Pepsi brand product is divided into mainly five parts such as 1. Water Treatment 2. Syrup Making 3. Bottle Washing 4. Filling 5. Testing of Product
(1) Water Treatment: - Water treatment is very essential in soft drinks plants as
the nature and quality of water varies from place to place. To set uniform and standard water the process of treatment is carried on. The water taken out from bore well by the help of motor pump and pipe line are collected in storage tank where is pre chlorinated by chlorinators and by the help of pipe lines comes to treatment tank called coagulation tank where to this water solutions of different strength of bleaching powder, ferrous sulphate, hydrated lime are added through dosing pump to reduce alkalinity, hardness, kill the bacteria .The chemical are mixed by mechanical stripper and then the suspend mattress settle down as sludge and clear water passes to retention tank. From this tank, the water passes through sand filter containing fine sand and pebbles and carbon filter containing granular carbon and finely through water polisher, micron filter, and UV lamp to ensure clear and sanitary water for use. Further water used in bottle washer and boiler need softening .for this purpose ,the water from storage tank ,after passing through two filter beds contain fine sand and granular carbon respectively comes to pass through bad resin were it is softened .this soft water is essential to use in and bottle washer to reduce scale formation inside the machines.
(2) Syrup Making:- For syrup making of particular brand, calculate quantity of
sugar water activated carbon and high flow super cell known as filter aid taken in to sugar to enter steam and also filled by a motor with agitator. Sugar syrup called raw-syrup is prepared by dissolving the sugar with continuous stirring and heating by steam supplied by fired boiler. This hot syrup by the help of pump is filtered through a filter press attached with a series of quality filter paper to separate out carbon particles. Clear hot syrup by the help of SS pipe lines passes through water P.H.E. for cooling and the then another P.H.E. circulated by glycol for further cooling. The chilled syrup comes to a mixing tank to use calculating of sugar quantity by Brix Hydrometer, concentrate added and mix thoroughly by a mechanical Stirrer fitted to the tank. This syrup is now finished syrup ready for use. The concentrate mainly, the liquid part are kept in a cold store, the temperature of finished syrup is also maintained by air-conditioner. All the containers used for syrup making are cleaned and sanitized by Soda-Bi-Crab, strong chlorine solution and hot caustic soda solution.
(3) Bottle Washing: Bottle washing is an important part in soft drink plant. The
empty durable and returnable bottle used are returned from market in plastic carats are fed to a bottle washing machine (washer). The machine has double end system with circular chain to carry the bottles. Caustic soda Tri-Sodium Phosphate, Sodium Glausonate is adding to the caustic by the supplied. The Caustic tank filled in with water heated by steam supplied by the boiler. The empty bottles enter to the hot Caustic tank in one end and after being cleaned by hot Caustic solution and finally washed with water through spray jets fitted are discharged in other end. The washed bottle proper inspections are SU 319 and SU 853 used for conveyor cleaned and smooth running of chain carrying bottles. SU 260 and SU 773 is used for bottle cleaning, shining, and mold removing.
(4) Filling: - Finished syrup and treated water lime are commixed to a dosing
pump which mixes syrup and water with ratio of 1:5 and the syrup mixed with water enters to carbonator tank to mix CO2 gas, which is preserved in cylinder for use. The cylinders are connected through CO 2 manifold to tank to use requisite quantity of gas. To control CO2 pressure and temperature of liquid; we used recording control (Taylor). The syrup passed through a P.H.E. which is called itself by circulation of chilled glycol supplied chilling F-22 gas used. The syrup being chilled easily mixed with CO2 gas and enters to filter for bottling. The filter is connected with filling valves and lift cylinders. The lift cylinder functions by pressure of air supplied by an air composer. The syrup is known as beverage in this stage is filled in the cleaned bottles which are durable in nature and returnable by buyer filling machine (filter) by a counter pressure of carbon dioxide gas. After beverage filled in bottle it goes to the crowner where with the help of crown crocks the bottles are sealed (crowned) to project the carbonation, flavor, outside contamination and spoilage. The finished products are coded by a coding machine and inspected properly by inspection light while passing through the conveyor where finished product are accumulated enters to carat washer machine and it is washed moves through the conveyor where finished product are accumulated. Then the products are kept in plastic carats which are durable in nature and returnable by buyer, put on palates and sent to shipping for shipment. The entire container in contact with syrup are properly cleaned and sanitized by Soda-BiCarbonate, hot water, caustic soda solution and strong chlorine does.
(5) Testing of product:- Finally the finished syrup during bottle is tested in
laboratory to meet the parameters and also to get a standard and quality products to maintain the standard and information and uniformity in products the sugar contents and carbonation in the bottle are checked in regular intervals by Brixhydrometers, Refrectometer and pressure gauge. The dead weight tested is used to calculate pressure gauge to know the correct pressure. TA & Ph are tested by 30 Channel Satisfaction
digital Ph meter. Electronic digital balanced is used to weight chemical to conduct test in lab. The purity of CO 2 is checked by CO2 purity tester. The chlorine comparators. The microbiology test of the product and water used in syrup making and production are also done to ensure that the product is free from any bacteriological contamination. To conduct the micro test hot sterilizer incubator, autoclave, pads filter membranes, media are produced and used. The Diesel generator is operated in case of electricity failure for smooth operation of the plant. To drawn electricity for the State Electricity Board the transformer is used. The steps involved in the production process are: First the fork lift supplies the empty bottles which are collected from the distributions. Then depalletising is done i.e. separating cases filled or empty bottles from the wooden planks. Uncasing is done by separating empty bottles from the cases/carats. Empty bottles are then fed into the bottle washer where stream with some chemical is used for washing. Washed bottles are then send to the filler where premix (Composed of syrup, treated water bulk CO2) is filled in it. The whole concentrated is chilled with glycol before filling and then crowning is done. The filled bottles are passed through inkjet coder for printing price and date. Then again the filled bottles are send for final light inspection and from there they are collected on a table. Lastly the filled bottles are arranged in the crates (casing) and then palletizing is done for storing it in the warehouse.

Ltd. was established by Late Mr. Dharam Chand Kamani in the month of June 1967. The machineries of its main plant were imported in 1968 and production started in March 1969. Before the establishment of Steel City beverages Pvt. Ltd. Coca Cola was not much popular among people of Bihar state as pure soft drink because at that time the bottles of Coca Cola was supplied by the outsiders who were unable to make Coca Cola popular in Bihar. So after considering the needs and desires of people Mr. Dharma Chand Kamani brought in Bihar. With this effort Coca Cola become popular among the people of Bihar. But in 1977 due to the sudden change the policies of the Government to import license for the concentrate of Coca Cola was stopped. So Steel City beverages Pvt. Ltd. had to walk over to Indian Concentrate Companies. They were modern food industries supplied concentrate of double seven and non ice cream soda.

IMPORTANCE AND RELEVANCE OF THE STUDY

Cold drinks were started with the idea of quenching the thirst of the persons traveling. It was also felt that reliable good water was not available everywhere. So people would really on their packed bottle and with this idea its makers made these drinks available mostly, at those places where water was not available i.e. on highways and long distance trains. But slowly and slowly with its beautiful taste these become very popular and now they are available not only in the market and street corners, but also people have started keeping it in their house. The credit of popularizing the soft drink goes to Coca Cola. This was the drink which is liked by all ladies, gents and children. Now days soft drinks are quenching thirst looks more often; they are taken due to habits. Gold Sport is considered as the first branded soft drinks, established 53 years ago before all empowering Coca Cola faced competitions and its euphoric image built up in the western countries helped it get ready clientele and clamor. Parle Export Pvt. Ltd. is regarded as the first Indian Company introducing Limca a leman drink complementary to it this has also introduced Cola Pepone which was withdrawn in the face of tough competition from Coca Cola. When Coca Cola bid a Farwell in 1977, Indian market was open for various new forward publishing different brands in the markets. Parle people introduced their Cola, Thumbs Up with a mighty saying Happy days are here again as if happy days went away with Coca Cola. Pure drinks of Delhi also without lasing much introduced pure drinks were producing and marketing Coca Cola earlier Campa Cola with Campa orange and Campa lemon. Modern Bakeries entered the market with Double Cola Seven, Mohan Makings with Merry & Plkup and McDowell with Thrill, Rush and Sprint. This is Indian market where there was no competition and high voltage advertising was on each one
was trying their best to become number one company with A class product in the field of Soft Drink business. Now after a long gap government of India had given permission
to Coca Cola, which joined with Parle to do business in India. They are trying their best to regain prestige which it had before. The much rival of Parle is Pepsi an American concern. It started business on the Indian soil just a few years ago. Today, it has occupied 62% shares of Soft Drinks market in India. Now Pepsi is going all out to prove that they are the best. But now due to some factors competition among them has become stiffen. So in this way the important activities have increased.

INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY

When Mr. Rajeev Gandhi came into the power as Prime Minister of India, then it was expected the liberalization of Indian economy. This was the expectation of his modern concept regarding every walk of life. When Pepsi has appealed on our collective consciousness of few years ago to be more exact in April 1989. When it set up operation for beverages snack foods and export business. The establishment of Multinational Company Pepsi was supposing to prediction in present Indian business scenario. Despite love for ones own motherhood and traditional concept of Indian people it was assumed that it is very hard to make and create taste and preference about soft drinks but despite of having so many confusion, no one was able to assume such a wide acceptance and it was PepsiCo. Who could be able to penetrate in Indian soil and it was the Pepsi that has got not only a place in Indian hospitality, but also taken place of traditional sharbat of lemon and sugar. And needless to say Generation next has become the slogan of the day. The first managing director was Mr. Ramesh Vanagal but present is Mr. P.M. Sinha in India. During these years beverages begin an exclusively franchise operating beverages now has five company owned bottling operation (COBO) the business expects to grow three times faster than the industry growth rate 1995 and its vision is to become INDIAS BEST CONSUMER PRODUCT COMPANY in all aspect. The snacks business has seen some major success and going for leadership too. Pepsi is a leader in the snacks food business. The division plans to introduction wide range of snakes in to Indian market in the next three years. The restaurant business has also come Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) has opened its first outlet at Bangalore Pizza but it also expected to open restaurants shortly city wise. Whole of the operations of Pepsi in India has made a rapid change in Indian life style, which is resulting in fast food life. Pepsi is a world leader in restaurant & soft drink whether it is in London or in Ludhiana, America or Ahmedabad, Berlin or Bombay, Paris or Patna, Manchester or Madras. 43 Channel Satisfaction
Pepsi company has pumped in Rs. 300 crores ($ 95 million) as fresh capital and has recently received permission from the foreign investment board in Rs. 300 crores ($95 million) more. The investment phase will continue and could add unto Rs. 700 crores over the next three years. The figure is not cast in stone if volume exceeds according to expectation. They will increase capital expenditure. Apart from these things there is an expression which can not verify easily that is Pepsi has made qualitative gains. The foremost is its image from being perennially seen as a loosing company its now got the image of being a winner. This major turn around is not small achievement considering that since it was established in 1989 taking the hard ship route prior to liberalization and weighed down by export committments. Pepsi has won more battles than it has lost. In April 1993 Voltas and Punjab Argos stakes were bought over converting Pepsi foods from a three way joint venture to be a fully owned subsidiary week bottlers who did not have the financial capacities were given massive support in the form in interest free loans to upgrade their operating capacity . But the strategy which has proved to be winner was the position, Pepsi decided to take in Company Owned Bottling Operation (COBO). For this another subsidiary PepsiCo. India holding was set up as an investment vehicle, capitalized 95 million dollar. Within a year 1994 Pepsi has bought over 5 bottlers including dukes in Mumbai, which was running in Maharastra which has been bought over from Voltas high speed imported lines with a speed of 600 bottles per minute was installed in Delhi. Pepsi has a strong franchisee in the Jaipurias of Pearl drinks. Pepsi is setting up a new plant at Jaipur.

COMPETITION OF PEPSI VS COKE
COMPETITION OF PEPSI VS COKE

COMPETITON
(Real war between Pepsi & Coke)
Every food companies have their competition. Pepsis main competitor is Coca-Cola co. Both have been selling thirst quenchers for 100 years that are now global brands. Their bottles move through the worlds most pervasive distribution network. Coke is mainly a franchise driven operation with a company supplying its soft drink concentrate to its soft bottles around the world Coke management releases that a soft drink is a convenience as well as an impulse product. According the companys expertise lies in consumers marketing. Idea is to reduce the effect span as Also coke will be experimenting with mobile dispensing units at beaches and stadiums going out towards consumers the much as possible. Cokes infrastructure plan include setting up new subsidiaries. It is also considering a 35 Greenfield venture to set-up a model plant in westerns corridor most likely in Gujarat. This will have 4 product lines with a capacity of 600 bottles per minutes with a build in flexibility to about top different and flavors and sizes. Another option for building capacity is to bringing in bottlers from overseas to invent jointly in fresh capacity. The company wants to go a stem further and set-up COCA-COLA institute a training facility for bottlers. Coke continues to stay with its multi brand strategy. This enhances the ability to leverage self-space at the retail outlet. It also gives then flexibility to offer price on brand others then lead once. Coke has launched MAJA pineapple and MAJA orange. As far as new product launched is concerned coke plans a dual brand approach by bringing in FANTA lemon. This comes about because volumes of LIMCA have increased by 20% shares, which have an 80% share of the cloudy lemon segment-So this dual brand approach will extend to that flavors too. Pepsis decision to take in company owned bottling operation (COBO) alongside franchise has proved to be winning edge over its competitor.
By 1994 Pepsis has bought over five bottles in the key markets. This ensuring maximum control. The franchise now sees the company not just as advisor but also as carrying the weight of experience. Company system and franchisee system can now be properly aligned to meet the required objectives. On expanding reach and availability 80% of all cold drinks are consumed at the point of purchase (POP) rather than at home. The fountain initiative has paid off in higher of countrywide and they offer consumers a whole new way experience soft drinks. Also expanding teach and availability. Coke tied up with Indian oil to set up dispensing units at petrol pumps. Pepsi followed suit by striking a deal with Bharat Petroleum. Pepsi has mainly focused a brand Pepsi. Their strategy has been to keep pace with the market growth rate in non-Colas but to emerge as the definite cola they have put there might behind the brand Pepsi as the flagship brand. In 1987, Pepsi ranked 29 in the fortune list of the 500 largest industrial corporation in the U.S. Coca Cola was way down at 54, while Pepsi Co. improved its position from 34 in 1986 Coca Cola tumbled to 38 after missive public out cry, the company had to reintroduce the original coke classic. Pepsi has so far made in roads in 151countries (150 before India) including the muchpublicized ventures in the soviet Union and China. Patience in Pepsi Co.s long suit. At the base of every beverage business lies the all important secret formula of success the Concentrate. In India the concentrate is prepared by Pepsi food limited representatives of Pepsi-Cola international. They came, spent, and conquered. The size of their combined business adds up to more than Rs. 5500 Crore. The equity investment put in it tots up to a humungous $ 1347 million (Rs. 5700 crore). Yet almost 10 year after Pepsi Coca-cola Company entered India, birth are yet to turn a profit. Their accumulated losses are estimated to over Rs. 800 Crore. In a bid to comer a larger market share, invariably, either Pepsi or Coke ends up raising the stakes to a point where the math simply doesnt add up. Just that the two cola giants have been in an unseemly hurry to grow the Indian market and, at the same time deny each other any advantages, irrespective of whether it makes economics sense. In the mid 90s breakeven was pegged at 40 million cases. 55 Channel Satisfaction
Today, both players together do 150 million cases, but break-even is still elusive. The battle spilled into almost every area of operations in early 1999, that discounts were also unleashed. If the industry norm was around three to four bottles free with every case, the Cola majors began to offer six to seven bottles. In 2000 particularly in the month coke went berserk, giving 500/0 discounts. Both cola warriors targeted a clutch of key accounts about 67% of the total retail base, primarily restaurants, movie halls and hotels. In many cases the owner would play one against the other and drive a hard bargain. In may cases the cola companies. Paid close to Rs. 100 per case of expected off take as advance to secure a monopoly over the key account. The gross margins o~ a case of returnable glass bottles was just Rs. 40. In India, a single-serve P & T bottles was simply not cost effective. Aluminum cans too suffered from the same problem effective. Aluminum cans too suffered from the same problem. Now every year, both companies had to invest in fresh glass capacity and crates. Back-of-the envelop calculations suggested that to put an additional million bottles in the market required close to Rs. 40 crore investment in glass and carats, and glass bottles had to be replaced every four year after they had done 40 cycles, during which time depreciation had been charged. Till the cola companies began to concentrate on the urban centers. As soon as they pushed into the winter land, the first sings of problems surfaced. In a state like Tamil Nadu the off take per 1000 people was barely 0.9 as a result, when a Pepsi or a coke truck went into interior markets, the glass simply wouldnt come black fast, either consumption was low or the volumes were being split between the volumes were being spilt between the two competitors as a market. But that would have been completely out or character for the company. it is a bit like asking the Brazilian Soccer team to adopt German-Style total football. Across global market Pepsi has always reveled in grabbing share away from coke. But in India it finds itself in a peculiar position. It is the Numero Uno brand, outselling both coke and Thums up put together. Thats helped Pepsis Indian team to build quite a reputation. Pepsi has managed to constantly find ways to connect with the youth. So it Coke is the universal drink, which cuts across-age groups, Pepsi is the icon of the real cola quaffers Young-people between the ages of 15-29
CHAPTER 5.
A THEORETICAL FRAME WORK OF MARKET SHARE
A HYPOTHETICAL FRAME WORK OF MARKET SHARE

Control of market share is the key issue in this project. The situation is, both Coke and Pepsi are trying to gain market share in the beverage market, which is valued at over $30 billion a year 1998. Just how this is done is such a competitive market is the underlying issue. The facts are that each company is coming up with new products and ideas in order to increase their market share. The creativity and effectiveness of each companys marketing strategy will ultimately determine the winner with respect to sales, profits and customer loyalty. Not only are these two companies constructing new ways to sell Coke and Pepsi, but they are also thinking ways in which to increase market share in other beverage categories. Although the goal of both companies is exactly same, the two companies rely on somewhat different marketing strategies. Pepsi has always taken the lead in developing new products, but Coke soon learned their lesson and started to do the same. Coke hired marketing executives with good track records. Coke also implemented cross training of managers so it would be more difficult for cliques to form within the company. On the other hand, Pepsi has always taken more risks, acted rapidly, and was always developing new advertising ideas. Both companies have also relied on finding new markets, especially in foreign countries. In the foreign markets, Coke has been more successful than Pepsi. For example, in Eastern Europe, Pepsi has relied on a barter system that proved to fail. However, in certain countries that allow direct comparison, Pepsi has beaten Coke. In foreign markets, both companies have followed the marketing concept by offering products that meet consumer needs in order to gain market share. For instance, in certain countries, consumers wanted a soft drink that was low in sugar, yet did not have a diet taste or image. Pepsi responded by developing Pepsi Max. These companies in trying to capture market share have relied on the development of new products. In some cases the products have been successful.
However, at other times the new products have failed. For Coke, changing their original formula and introducing it as New Coke was a major failure. The new formula hurt Coke as consumers requested Classic Cokes return. Pepsi has also had its share of failures. Some of their failures included: Pepsi Light, Pepsi Free, Pepsi AM and Crystal Pepsi. One solution to increasing market share is to carefully follow consumer wants in each country. The next step is to take fast action to develop a product that meets the requirements for that particular region. Both companies cannot just sell one product: if they do they will not succeed. They have to always be creating and updating their marketing plans and products. The companies must be willing to accommodate their target markets. Gaining market share occurs when a company stays one-step ahead of the competition by knowing what the consumer wants. MARKET SHARE ANALYSIS Company sales do not reveal the company is performing relative to competitors. For this management needs to track its market share. Market share can be measured in ways: Overall market share is the companys sales expressed as percentage of total market sales. Served market share is its sales expressed as percentage of total market sales to its served market. Market share compared with considering 100 % market. The first factor is the possibility of provoking anti-trust action. Jealous competitors like to cry monopoly if dominated firm makes further road. This rise in risk would cut down the attractiveness of pushing market share gains too far. The second factor is economic cost. The cost of legal work, public relation and lobbying rise market share. Pushing for market share is less justified when there are few scale or experience economies, unattractive market segments exist buyers want multiple sources of supply, and exit barriers are high. The factor is that companies might sure the wrong marketing-mix strategy in their bid for higher share. Companies that will more market share by cutting price are buying, not earning, a large share and their profit may be lower 59 Channel Satisfaction

It literally means that we evaluate the Market by various means from time to time. Our evaluation system was based on the four factors: 1. Topography 2. Customer survey through EDS (Every Dealer Survey) 3. Survey by issuing questionnaire to the customer. 4. Company Issues
Customer Survey:Who are the customers? Here the customer is categorized on those who finally sells the companies product to the consumers. Companies customers are categorized in various sub channels .They are: 1) Hyper market/Super Market. 2) Cinema Single Screen/Multiplex. 3) Food service Food Court, Food Dine/Pubs/Bars. 4) Institution Education, Office. 5) Transport- Railways, Bus Stand, Airport. 6) Leisure Amusement Park/Clubs. 7) Eatery 8) Convenience 9) Grocery Literally we can say above are the places where companies distribution channel are putting there efforts to place their product.
Every Dealer Survey (EDS):The Every Dealer Survey commonly known as EDS is made every year by the company. This survey is done every year by the company so that complete awareness about the retailers and there attachment with the company is observed. The data of EDS helps in knowing the companys position among the competitors as well as the competitors position.
The assessment is done in following ways:The Format Of EDS Is Given As Under:-
Outlet Name: - Is the name of the outlet. Contact person: - To whom the surveyor contacts. Address: - Address of outlet. Contact no:- Is the contact number of the outlet. Channel : - Is the category of the outlet.
SIGNAGE:One of the important topic covered under the EDS is signage. Here Signage refers to visibility of brand names and different flavours in the outlet. There are various ways through which the brand names and different flavours are made visible to the consumers.
They are: Dealer Boards. Glow Sign Boards. Shop Painting. Counter Rack. Floor Rack.
One of the important philosophy company follows is: JO DIKHTA WO BIKTA HAI means the thing which is visible in any outlet, consumer demands for it. And this philosophy of company is very much true. Through the EDS the signage of the competitor is also concluded. From the survey it was observed that the routes or outlets where there is good signage the sale of product is also up to mark. Similarly it was also noticed that company needs to put some more effort regarding signage in the weak routes.
Chilling Equipments:Under this category the chilling equipment of PEPSI and its competitor is estimated .There are series of chilling equipment of Pepsi and its competitor. They are namely PBI code Chilling machine provided by the company free of cost to the retailers having goodwill in the soft drink market. CCI code Provided by the competitor just as PBI Code. Outlet own Chilling machine owned by the outlet. PBI OYC & CCI OYC The equipments provided by Pepsi and its competitor respectively on the payment and the mode of payment is draft. 63 Channel Satisfaction
A Brief Summary Of Direct Interviews

A survey was conducted in which 10 best samples were collected from all the routes which also include distributors and dealers. Following are the questions and there evaluation according to the sample answers:
(1) Which brand you purchase the most? When it was asked about the brand preference from the customer the answer varied from one route to another. In routes like route no-5,route no- 6,route no-7 etc. which are considered the best route of Patna the figures are impressive. About 67% of customer prefers Pepsi and the remaining 33% goes in the hand of the competitors. Whereas when it was asked in the routes which company considers it as its week routes there was marginal difference in the in the figures generated in comparison to strong routes. The brand preference of customer in the week route is : PEPSI 61% COKE 39% (2) Is there Regular Supply of PEPSI? (A) Yes (b) No When asked about the regular supply of PEPSI the response was very good the sales man visited almost every day. The distribution system of Pepsi should be given credit for the above reason. There are different kind vehicle which the company uses depending upon the route. And sales man as a driver drives to their respective routes. (3) Does PEPSI salesman behave properly? (Stretch on interpersonal relationship) Since the satisfaction level of customer is measured, so the behavior of sale personnel is one of the important things to be measured in this context. So talking about interpersonal relationship with the costumer it is quite satisfactory but some reasons are 64 Channel Satisfaction
there which do not supports the satisfaction of the customer that is the routes for a sales man is never permanent so the sales man faces difficulty in establishing good relation with the customers.
(4) Does salesmen provide you with right scheme given by the Company? When the above question was asked the reply of the costumer was satisfactory. About 60% said YES About 15% said NO and about 25% said CANT SAY This is one of the important finding surveyed in different routes. And some serious decision is to be taken for the cause of no and cant say. One of the suggestions which is to be given for the cause is the scheme should be known to the customer and the sales man should carry some proof regarding the schemes announced by the company.

Conclusion and Suggestions
Conclusion and Suggestion

In the earlier chapters of this report on various aspects of soft drinks industry with particular reference to establishment of Lumbini Beverages Pvt. Ltd. Its organizational structure and channel Satisfaction Lumbini Beverage Pvt. Ltd. etc have been studied. Present chapter is an attempt to summaries the whole report and present a view suggestion. From the data analysis and survey conducted by me, I arrived at the following conclusions:(1) Pepsi has the entire flavor i.e. Cola, Lemon, Orange, Mango in the market and its market share is comparatively less than Coke. (2) The majority of the retailers deal in all brands of Pepsi and Coca-Cola. (3) One of the major drawbacks of Pepsi products is that all the flavors do not reach at each and every retail outlets but competitors products do reach that is why competitor enters in to Pepsi exclusive outlets . (4) The major problem faced by the distributor is the shortage of supply . Company representative should be checked that whether our product is reaching to the outlets timely and regularly or not. (5) Although the Visi-cooler, Sign board/Display rack and Glass strength provided by Pepsi are more than Coke but still there are number of retailers, who are either not having these or others have provided them . (6) There is unequal distribution of Visi-cooler. Retailers, who sell more are not provided Visi-cooler while retailers, which sell less, are provided visi-cooler. (7) Some of the Visi-cooler provided by Pepsi is not functioning properly, complains regularly are entertained after a long time. (8) Most of the retailers are in need of board but not provided by the Pepsi Company. (9) Most of the retailers especially small retailers have complained that the sales man does not inform about any sales promotional scheme. (10) The big retailers of Pepsi do not maintain the purity in the Visi-cooler and dictate their own terms and conditions. 75 Channel Satisfaction
Suggestions
Lumbini Beverages Pvt. Ltd. should introduce some change in its marketing function and advertising to market more rational. The following factors to be worthy of consideration:1. A complaint Register should be provided by the company to every distributor in every route so that, retailers/customers can write their problems. The complaint register should be checked by consumer executive and depot in charge at time to time. 2. A clear notification should be given to teach distributor and each route agent to give cash memo (with printed number) and maintain route card for every transaction. 3. Proper care should be given the companys employees at the time of scheme close. Signature of scheme receiving on the cash memo should be taken and it should be also maintained in route card. Claim of scheme should be passed after the deeply stud y of above three points i.e. difference between opening stock and closing, signature of scheme receiving on the cash memo and sells maintained in the route card. 4. Some retailers keep other companies products in the Pepsis fridge, while is provided by the company. To check additional scheme be given in every month, in the peak seasons After the checking of Pepsis Fridge (3or 4 times in every month ) if It is found that retailer does not keep other companies products in the Pepsis Pepsi fridge the claim of scheme should be passed . Thus we can improve/increase its sell and employees activities. 5. There is no electricity problem in the whole area of Patna. For chilled soft drink, Refrigerators should be provided by the company in abundance.. 6. The numbers of outlets are too much. So it is required to short the route and extra vehicles/tricycles provide in this route.
7. Facilities provided by the company should be increased. Facilities requirements should be fulfilled in all the rural and urban area properly after deeply study for various aspects or retailers by the help of company employee and depot incharge. 8. Number of tricycle can be installed at various place like public during the peak hours i.e. evening and busy roads and chowks near the town`s commercial centers. Care should be taken to install these tricycles under a shady tree where providing relief from heat to the prospective customers as well as the vendor. 9. All these tricycles targeted the tired and thirsty consumer of the road and other place, care should be taken that soft drinks in the ice box are always chilled and ice readily available. 10. The vendors can also be provided with uniform by the company in order to give them visibility. 11. An appropriate name should be given to these tricycles and properly advertisement thus giving them some sort of identity. 12. In winters, as the sales from these tricycles may be very low because of seasonal factors Beverages Pvt. Ltd. should think of introducing such packs Beaver its various brands of beverages . 13. It is vital take for Lumbini Beverages Pvt. Ltd. that maintain the performance of Pepsi in future therefore performance of soft drink was very good in this year in comparison of coke. 14. Now a day with the introduction of tetra packs such as fruity, Tree Top etc. So Lumbini Beverages Pvt. Ltd. should think of introducing such packs of its various brands of beverages. 15. Lumbini beverages Pvt. Ltd. should be provided its the rural area also. 17. Coke is the only competitor of Pepsi. So we should try to keep every information about Coke i.e. prices scheme, policy etc. always it will help in Decision making. At last only this can be said that these suggestions are not totally but even partially can be used by the Lumbini Beverages Pvt. Ltd. it would be pleasure for me and is certain that if these are carried out by management , it will helpful in establishing the Lumbini Beverages Pvt. Ltd. on a more stronger footing. 77 Channel Satisfaction

So I could not collect all information regarding my topic. i) ii) Shortage of time factor was one of the biggest constraints. Most stress was given on the primary data as it was difficult to collect secondary data from the organization and distribution since it is difficult to ascertain the authenticity of their statements.
