 HISTORY OF LAYS
 Lays, created a market for potato chips in India in the nineties. LAYS ENTERED
INTO THE INDIAN MARKET BY COLLABARATING WITH PESICO COMPANY,
PEPSICO ACTED AS THE DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL, AND IT SOLD THEIR
PRODUCTS THROUGH THE GENERAL STORES ACROSS THE INDIA.
 Lay’s, the world’s largest and favourite snack food brand, has steadily
established itself as an indispensable part of India’s snacking culture since its launch
in 1995.
 With its irresistible taste, international and Indian flavours and youth-centric imagery,
Lay’s has established itself as a youth brand and continues to grow in the hearts and
mind of its consumers.
 Over the years, Lay’s has become known for its engaging and innovative promotions
and campaigns. The brand known for its ‘No one can eat just one’ campaign has
moved its positioning to ‘What’s the programme?’ making Lay’s ‘the main food of
every programme‘! Saif Ali Khan has been the face of the brand for over five years,
and has recently been joined by the captain of the Indian cricket team M.S. Dhoni.
Both embody the youthful energy and appeal of the brand.
 HISTORY OF BALAJI
WAFFERS
 The journey of Balaji Group in year 1976 by the member of Virani family. For
supplying wafers and namkeens to local brands to the patrons of Astron Cinema,
Rajkot. Due to the short supply of that product they decided to make their own product line
in year 1982.

 By the overwhelming retail success they inspired to set a semi automatic plant. Instead of
preparing wafers by the traditional frying method this semi automatic plant boosted the
quality, taste and more sales also. The fame of taste reached to the whole Gujarat hence it
was time to takeover the whole Gujarat so that the biggest automatic plant of Gujarat came
in to the picture.

 The wheel of network is devised under the ideal distribution channel network. That ensures
to supply fresh product in any corner of India within 24 hours. You can have Balaji snacks
in every 100 meters in INDIA. At Balaji, it is not only just distribution but it is an
euphemistic effort of team work.

 This simple mantra rocked and changed the definition of chip world. Winning the heart by
quality and great taste and distributing sufficient dealer margin is a winning strategy of Balaji
Group. Its 'Value for money' strategy enables even a kid to buy fresh & healthy food in
