R ECOMMENDATIONS

Nestle Bangladesh Limited should focus on activations which involve more on one-to-one communication
Out of Dhaka city, promotional activities should be more active and frequent so that they can respond more.

Issues should be resolved regarding consumers registration in forms with correct information
Getting any complaint regarding expiry date of product is a huge issue, which should be taken care of immediately
