SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT & LOGISTICS

Supply chain management (SCM), the management of the flow of goods and services, involves
the movement and storage of raw materials, of work-in-process inventory, and of finished
goods from point of origin to point of consumption.

In todays competitive market, you need to do far more than simply manage the level of
inventory in warehouses. You need to know with complete accuracy at all times exactly what is
available, where it is located and how to best meet distribution requirements. At Glen
Appliances Pvt. Ltd SAP software is used to manage the inventory. Inventory management is
the process of efficiently monitoring the flow of products into and out of an existing inventory
in the warehouse.

This process involves controlling the receipt of products in order to prevent the inventory from
becoming too high where items are stored at an unnecessary cost or too low where it can cause
a stock-out and production could be halted due to lack of raw materials.

In SAP, the inventory management functionality revolves around the movement of materials in
and out of the storage facility and the physical count of those items at regular intervals. For
inventory management there are two organizational levels which are required to be created;
the plant, and the storage location.

Logistics is the art and science of managing and controlling the flow of goods, energy,
information, and other resources like products, services, and people, from the source of
production to the marketplace. It is difficult to accomplish any marketing or manufacturing

without logistical support. It involves the integration of information, transportation, inventory,
warehousing, material handling, and packaging. The operating responsibility of logistics is the
geographical repositioning of raw materials, work in process, and finished inventories where
required at the lowest cost possible.

Logistics Management is that part of the supply chain, which plans, implements and controls
the efficient, effective forward and reverse flow and storage of goods, services and related
information between the point of origin and the point of consumption in order to meet
customers' requirements.

Market Growth of Kitchen Appliances in India

The kitchen appliance instrument or devices are designed for the smooth functioning of kitchen
activities. Kitchen appliances operate with the help of either gas or electricity. They are used
mainly for cooking, storage and cleaning functions in the kitchen.

According to a recently published report by TechSci Research India Kitchen Appliances Market
Forecast and Opportunities, 2019, the kitchen appliances market in India is projected to grow
at a CAGR of more than 25% during 2014-19. The demand for kitchen appliances in the country
is expected to continue growing on account of expanding base of middle class and affluent
consumers, increasing working population and improving consumer lifestyle. India has a large
base of young consumers who form majority of the workforce and hardly find time for
traditional cooking due to their busy schedules, thereby creating huge demand for western
kitchen appliances that facilitate easy and quick cooking.

Rising per capita disposable income of consumers, especially upper and lower middle income
groups, continues to drive Indias kitchen appliances market. However, majority of Indian
consumers are price conscious, which poses a challenge for the manufacturers and suppliers as
even a small price variation hugely affects the consumer preference for a specific brand or
product. Consequently, the kitchen appliance companies are constantly focused on offering
high-quality kitchen appliances at lowest possible prices.

Retail chains such as Big Bazar, Easyday, Croma, Relaince Digital, etc. are significantly
contributing towards increasing the product awareness among consumers, thereby boosting
the demand for kitchen appliances in India. However, such chains are not currently present in
semi-urban and rural pockets of the country. To overcome this issue, various retail majors are
focusing on expanding their reach in rural areas over the coming years, which is expected to
drive the kitchen appliances market until 2019. said Ms. Varsha Singh, Research Consultant
with TechSci Research, a research based global management consulting firm. Major players
currently operating in the Indian kitchen appliances market include Glen, TTK Prestige, Bajaj
Electricals, LG, Samsung, Inalsa, IFB, Panasonic, Phillips, etc.

India Kitchen Appliances Market Forecast and Opportunities, 2019 has evaluated the future
growth potential of Indias kitchen appliances market and provides statistics and information on
market structure, consumer behavior trends, market projections and demand forecasting. The
report is intended to provide cutting-edge market intelligence and help decision makers to take
sound investment evaluation. Besides, the report also identifies and analyzes the emerging
trends along with essential drivers, challenges and opportunities in kitchen appliances market
in India.
