Food industry in Pakistan.

The food and its allied products industry is considered Pakistans largest industry, and is believed to account for 27 percent of its value-added production. Trade sources estimate the sector's total value of production is over rs.46 billion (rs.58.00 equal usd 1.00 at the current exchange rate). Pakistans food industry produces cooking oils, hydrogenated vegetable oils, sugar, flour, dairy products such as milk, butter, yogurt, cheese and ice-cream, biscuits, breads and confectionery, fruit juices and fruit juice drinks, carbonated beverages, snack foods based on rice, potatoes, corn and pulses, processed chicken, jams, jellies, squashes, sauces, pickles, and some cereals and canned fruits. The fish, meat, fruit and vegetable sectors are underdeveloped partly for lack of adequate infrastructure, including storage and transportation facilities. Government policies and plans are expected to greatly increase the development of seafoods industry. Development and implementation of milk standards is also essential to define milk price based on quality. Dairy science and technology education universities also need to support industry in dairy breeding, nutrition, industrial management and product quality.

Presently no under-graduate program is available in the country to support this sector. Presently, Pakistan has only a few scholars in prime principles of dairy science including animal breeding and genetics, dairy nutrition, dairy management, and dairy technology to support and develop dairy industry. It is essential because the veterinarian could only provide support to the animal industry developed on the animal production science principles. Animal or dairy production science is altogether a different subject than that of veterinary education. In conclusion, development of dairy cooperates, restructuring of Extension; research and educational institutions could perk up rural oriented dairy sector to market oriented dairy industry that guaranteed food security social and economic growth in Pakistan.

STRATEGIC Internal

and external Audit

i.

STEEPLE Analysis
No organization exists in a vacuum; the environment within which the firm has to operate will affect the way that strategy is both planned and carried out and changes in the environment is also the most likely reason for making changes in the strategy. Changes in the environment are also the most likely cause of failure of strategic plans. The most carefully calculated strategy would be able to drive the market in the favor of the organization and will maneuver the external environment in the best possible way. Engro Foods like all the organizations they also have to face such kind of environment which is very dynamic. Being in the market as a challenger they have to face all the external factors and have to cope up with them accordingly

S - Social Factors
Engro food has helped to bring about a change in life style of the Pakistani People by introducing UHT Milk, as the literacy rate is improving and it is resulting in a better awareness of the olpers and Tarang UHT treated milk and is helping them improve their sales and Milk with its basic benefits has helped improve the image and more usage has been seen in the past years. Special awareness Campaigns can also be launched and can help portray a better image of the product in front of the customers. The attitudes of the people are also changing with the passage of time so as a result the usage of open gawala milk is changing and people are opting out the usage of standardized packed milk.

T - Technological Factor
The type of the technology available within the industry states the competitive environment because creative use of new technology is what often gives firm there competitive advantage. This environment does not change that much quickly but the changes that come are strong enough that can change the way the industry is currently running. Haleeb production process uses UHT (Ultra High Treatment) technology. Engro food administrators claim that their plant adopted the latest technology for milk processing and thus it had an edge over other around twenty plants in competition including Haleeb, Milkpak as all other plants were based on obsolete European technology. The idea behind UHT investment was to provide consumers with the best quality of packaged dairy and food products that no other company can produce.

E - Economical Factor
Engro Foods is strongly affected by both the Economic and the Demographic environment around and have to keep on taking different steps to respond accordingly. There is no sales tax on the milk. Hence it is a real plus point. Material supply and shortages are faced by the company for both Packaging and for the product it, as milks production is seasonal and keeps fluctuating and adequate steps are required to be taken in order to keep it working smoothly. Haleeb also dont charge interest on its products which also makes a huge difference economically.

E - Environmental Factor
As, the environment always effect the way strategies are being carried out and implemented. Engro Foods like all the organizations they also have to face such kind of environment which is very dynamic. Being in the market as a challenger they have to face all the external factors and have to cope up with them accordingly. Haleeb have the strategies to positively engage the staff in work and boost up their moral. Engro food has a friendly environmental culture within the organization to make their employees comfortable and to deal with the external problems. There are few seasons in which the availability of milk reduces that effect the production of milk and left Engro food with fluctuated sales.

10

P - Political Factor
Engro food also abides by the rules formed by the Government and set their strategies that are according to the laws and legislations of the Government they are working under. Tetra Pack (brick pack), that was for the first time that milk came in that form soon followed by the Nestls Milk Pak which as a multinational rocked the UHT Milk industry of Pakistan. They are not actually bound under any sort of trade agreements. As far as the employment laws are concerned Engro food abides to laws set by the government for trade policies, government policies and completes its responsibilities in a better manner.

L - Legal Factor
Engro foods always stand by the rules and legal conditions imposed by the Government and set their strategies that are according to the employment laws and legislations of the Government they are working under. Engro food always keeps its department updated about what is happening in the sector or milk industry, and that will help them to make their strategies accordingly. Engro foods have the legal laws like, Minimum wage, working time, Food stuffs, Engro foods dont believe in Under 18 working, Occupational/ industrial Training, Environmental regulations, Consumer protection Industry-specific regulations etc.

E - Ethical Factor
Engro foods are well renowned company operating in the milk industry since 2002. And the reason for this is importantly their ethical values. They dont sale on credit or on interest because they consider it unethical and not according to the law of our religion.

PORTERS FIVE FORCES MODEL

11

1.

THREAT OF NEW ENTRANTS:


The average entrepreneur can't come along and start a large food company. The threat of new entrants lies within the food industry itself. Some companies have carved out niche areas in which they underwrite dairy supply. These food companies are fearful of being squeezed out by the big players. Another threat for many food companies is other food services companies entering the market.

Capital requirements
Competing in a new industry requires resources to invest. Production of packed products requires huge investment of financial, human, technical, and marketing resources. At the moment Engro Olpers have some threats like from new entrants goodmilk product of shskargang food.

Economy of scale
Economy of scale determines entry because they force potential competitors either to enter on a large scale bases (a costly and perhaps risky move) or to accept a cost disadvantage. Moreover, new entrants in the pasteurized milk business may encounter scale related barriers not just in the

12

production, but in the advertising marketing, distribution, financing, and raw milk purchasing as well, Engrofoods achieved its breakeven in 2003

2. BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS:


The suppliers of food might not pose a big threat, because of the reasons;

Number of suppliers
Raw milk is standard commodity and is available in the open market from a large number of milkmen. If anyone refuses to sell its product then company can buy it from others who are already willing to sell to company.

Importance of volume to supplier


Suppliers also have less leverage to bargain over price because the company is purchasing the large volume of their milk and suppliers dont have much option to sell milk to others.

3. BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS:


The individual doesn't pose much of a threat to the food industry. Large clients have a lot more bargaining power with food companies. Large corporate clients like airlines and retailers pay millions of dollars a year. There are large numbers of distributors, who are buying and distributing the product, so their bargaining power is low and company have leverage to dictate implement its terms and conditions to distributors.

Backward integration
Another reason of low bargaining power is that no buyer/distributor has the resources to start involve in backward integration.

13

4. AVAILABILITY OF SUBSTITUTES :
This one is pretty straight forward, for there are plenty of substitutes in the food industry. Most large food companies offer similar suites of services. Companies focusing on niche areas usually have a competitive advantage, but this advantage depends entirely on the size of the niche and on whether there are any barriers preventing other firms from entering.

5. COMPETITIVE RIVALRY :
The food industry is becoming highly competitive. The difference between one Food Company and another is usually not that great. As a result, food industry has become more like a commodity - an area in which the food company with the low cost structure, greater efficiency and better customer service will beat out competitors. Food companies also use higher investment returns and a variety

of food investment products to try to lure in customers. In the long run, we're likely to see more consolidation in the food industry. Larger companies prefer to take over or merge with other companies rather than spend the money to market and advertise to people. Not only local but attempts by cross border competitors or companies to gain stronger foot hold in each others domestic market boosts the intensity of rivalry, especially when the foreign rivals have lower cost or very attractive products. In case of Engro foods so far nestle and hale are the only diverse rival and another players that has just joined the UHT Milk sector is goodmilk, no doubt the competition between Engrofoods and Haleeb is quite intense both are engaged in consistent homework just to break and attract the customer towards each other but goodmilk is adding to the competition between the sector.

SWOT Analysis Strength


Engros back.

14

Olpers is a brand of ENGRO foods. This means that consumers can relate their former image of ENGRO foods to Olpers. ENGRO is a well established brand name in Fertilizer, IT and infrastructure business. The brand is well known so customers will automatically have a brand association with Olpers and see it as a premium quality product. ENGRO is world renowned so it can easily attract foreign investors in backing it against other competitors such as Nestle. ENGRO foods can easily afford research and development costs for Olpers have in order to introduce new products. It can also distribute the brand through better channels because of its long term relationship with distributors in the agriculture sector.

PR with farmers ENGRO has been interacting with the farmers for fertilizers and has gained quite a good reputation over the years. It has led to a strong bond and long term relationship with the farmers who are willing to supply milk to the company. This is an added advantage and strength for the company because it will never be short of milk production. The farmers also wont have to look elsewhere to sell their milk. Positive response from customers In first year, EFL crossed 1.4 billion sales figure which shows customers satisfaction upon EFLs products. 4. Its taste, quality proposition and world-class quality proposition system. Strong consumer & product research
Olpers done a strong consumer & product research before and after launching the product. This has provided them the perfect launching pad to eventually emerge as a global player in the food industry. To develop its future portfolios, EFL has hired various global research partners like AC Nielsen, Mindshare, JWT Asiatic and MARS marketing and advertising agencies.

Third-Generation Plant EFL only, has the third-generation UHT milk plant in the country. EFL plant is the only plant in Pakistan that uses Bactofuge technology to virtually eliminate bacteria and ensure premium quality and hygiene. Moreover, it is also setting up another milk processing plant in Central Punjab (Sahiwal) with an investment of Rs. 2 billion (US $ 33 million).

15

Worldwide fame of Engro. Efficient milk collection system. Keeping high quality standards. Integrated distribution and warehousing facilities. Successful related diversification. Generic brand name of Olpers Large market share of Engro innovative and chemicals. Having Good reputation in the market by strong brand name i.e. Engro

Weaknesses
Olwell TVC
Olwell ad which is based on Western life style, ENGRO foods brand management showed a man who put off his clothes & remain just in his undergarments, or half nude lady in a cat walk or men admiring the figures of a lady in mix gender health club. In this ad they are creating associations with the brand through the stripes, which is a highlight of Olwell packaging. Half naked people have been shown with tattoos of the same stripes in order to show that they are loyal consumers of Olwell. Also, the talent, situations and locations connects well with the ad to give Olwell a premium positioning. The brilliant marketing people at ENGRO Foods failed to analyze is that the market they are targeted the ad on, is Pakistan, where practicing Muslims reside, who have strong religious beliefs. When making the ad, the brand managers were focused on, making an ad that should give the brand the most premium look and feel amongst the target consumers but on the other hand they were least bothered about the ethics, religious beliefs and cultural values.

Owning Red Color


The company has not owned the color red like Nestle has a green Milkpak; Haleeb has a blue carton etc. This may create problems because when a consumer enters a grocery shop, then he/she might have problems in recalling the brand because there is no color association attached to Olpers. The company may need to find a suitable color in which to focus its upcoming marketing strategies.

Low Quality Milk


EFL is not having its own dairy farms; it largely collects loose milk from farmers & gwalas through its 40 milk collection centers, which sometimes is of low quality and impure because they add

vegetable oil to milk to get higher prices. Packaging EFL is dependent upon Tetra Pak for the packaging of its entire dairy products. Tetra Pak is the only option available to Olpers for packaging because it is having monopoly in the packaging sector in Pakistan. Due to this reason, Tetra Pak can charge them higher and it could increase the production costs. Milk collection & distribution costs

16

EFLs 34 out of 40 milk-collection centers are located in Punjab, where as its only milk processing facility is situated near Sukkur (Sindh). It increases the milk collection & distribution costs; and also increases the chances of milk getting spoiled because of increased traveling time.

Narrow brand portfolio It has been more than a year now, when EFL launched its first dairy product, Olpers Milk on March20, 2006. But EFLs brand portfolio still consists of just 3 products i.e. Olpers Milk, Olwell Milk and Olpers Cream. Whereas its competitors like Nestle and Haleeb Foods have a much diversified line of dairy products. Unable to compete in price sensitive segment of UHT milk market. Under-utilization of the capacity. Unable to fulfill the demand of local powder milk market. Not yet ISO certified

Opportunities
Increased funding by Government
Government has decided to increase farmers funding. This is an opportunity for ENGRO foods because previously due to weather conditions and other reasons there was lots of wastage of milk but now that can be reduced as farmers will be better able to store milk for longer time periods.

Increased consumption of PLM Competition may create opportunities for the company because each competitor in the milk industry wants to increase penetration of processed liquid milk and so they will create awareness for consumers through different advertising media. This will ensure the increase in the consumption of processed milk instead of lose milk and so will in turn lead to increase in sales for the company. Therefore there will be an opportunity for accelerated growth. Awareness Growing dissatisfaction with loose milk and increasing awareness about health and hygiene issues have led to increased processed milk consumption. Third largest producer of milk Pakistan is the Third largest producer of milk in the world with a total production of 32 billion liter of milk a year, whose value is more than that of the combined value of wheat and cotton, from a total herd size of 50 million milch animals (buffaloes and cows). Livestock accounts for 46.8 percent of agricultural value added and about 10.8 percent of the GDP. Milk is the largest
17

commodity from the livestock sector accounting for 51 percent of the total value of the sector. Due to the steps taken by the government and private sector, countrys annual milk production is expected to grow at an additional 3 billion liters in the next few years. This is quite an opportunity for ENGRO foods as there is lot of growth in this part of the sector. Improving Economy Population growth rate. High urbanization rate. High literacy rate. Flexible government policies for food industry. Have significant growth opportunities Has sufficient capital to expand. Has the potential to innovate and differentiate the company's products to sustain a competitive advantage May merge with other global businesses to eliminate competitors. Having Capable of expanding into other markets of the world

Threats
Competition Competition may pose a threat because the company will have to maintain its leadership in an expanding market so that it doesnt lose its market share to its competitors. For Olpers it might be difficult to penetrate in a market where the loyalties exist for such brands as Nestle and Haleeb. These brands have been in the milk industry far too long and have left a mark in the minds of consumers in terms of quality. Competition seems to be getting tougher as a result of new players entering the dairy market. Perceptions and Price Differentials Consumers perceptions and price differentials can cause a threat for the company. It is important that Olpers comes up to the expectations of the customers and fulfills its conformance quality that is the company meets its promised specifications. Consumers preferences change with time and prices might create certain barriers in terms of the profit margins for Olpers. For example, lose milk is still cheaper than packaged milk and that is also one factor that people still prefer to buy lose milk. Has many major global competitors with its main one being Nestle Pakistan, Haleebfoods can be substituted by other milk producer made by its competitors. These competitors may develop marketing strategies to eliminate The Engrofoods Olpers. There may be an economic downturn in the business cycle.

18

High inflation rate. Low purchasing power. Decrease in GDP growth rate. Increasing interest rates. Decreasing investment. Recessionary period in business cycle Competition with Nestle, Engro Foods and the new entrants. Engrofoods is currently facing are increase in Sales Tax

INDUSTRIAL SWOT ANALYSIS Strength


Endowed with the very good breed of buffalos and cows Highest per capita consumption of milk in Asia Regular culling of less productive/unproductive animals A high ratio of agricultural land to agricultural ratio An emergence of commercial dairy farms on a large scale

Weaknesses
Small and scattered animal holding Prevalence of traditional raw milk marketing system Poor quality of milk; lack of remunerative producer price for milk Milk processing predominantly dependant on obsolete UHT technology Mushrooming growth of cattle colonies in suburban areas; High cost of milk Production; a long chain of middle men Inadequate infrastructure and institutional facilities and support Low utilization of installed capacity of dairy plants Poor quality of animal health care and breeding services; lack of professional management

19

Opportunities
Huge unsatisfied demand of milk and milk products. Substantial scope for increasing milk production through improvement in the marketing system by ensuring a year round remunerative price to milk producers Increase consumer awareness of healthy eating

Threats
Unregulated imports of dairy products at cheap prices Inadequate public and private investment in modernization of the sector Vested interests in perpetuating the dependence on imports of dairy commodities

What is SWOT matrix?


The concept of determining strengths, weaknesses, threats, and opportunities is the fundamental idea behind the SWOT model. To present the model in a more understandable way, scholars came up with so-called SWOT matrix. SWOT matrix is only a graphical representation of the SWOT framework.

20

The above is a schema of how SWOT works. You start at the top level and go down to details. When this is filled with content, it gets the shape of a matrix, such as Example below:

CORE COMPETENCIES & KEY SUCCESS FACTORS:


There are several core competencies of EFL given below;

EFL foods Pvt. Ltd has been able to build a good brand name in a number of years. There are several consumers who are loyal to the brand and do not shift to other brands. Building a good brand name is not easy. It takes years to build a brand image by providing the best quality to its consumers which Haleeb Foods have done. They have consistently delivered which provides a competitive advantage to the company of having a good name in the market.

EFL. Is only the recognizable food company which is doing business without interest, which means that they do not take loan or take advantage of the interest income which they can easily do? If they want loan and they cannot find anyway out they go for Islamic Financing like mudarba and musharka. It is their strength as majority of the people in Pakistan are Muslims and Muslims are advised to remain away from interest income.

EFL has one of the most modern plants which has the latest technology and has a high production capacity. They produce 80,000 liters of milk in a day which is not a small amount of milk. They have an advantage of higher production as people are demanding more and more packed milk so they can meet the increasing demand easily.

24

HFL has one of the most extensive distribution networks across the nation. It has one of the best distributions if we compare it with other major players like nestle and all because EFL has over 600 distributors across Pakistan which enables them to deliver their products into far of small towns as well as villages. It is their major strength which is driving their revenues very quickly.

COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS
The strategic priorities of Nestle Pakistan are claimed to be focused on delivering shareholder value through the achievement of sustainable, capital efficient and profitable long-term growth. Improvements in profitability would be achieved with due respect to quality and safety standards at all times.

25

In line with the above objective, Nestle Pakistan aims at growing into a number one food company in Pakistan in the shortest possible time with the unique ability to meet the needs of consumers of every age group - from infancy to old age, for nutrition and pleasure, through development of a large variety of food categories of products with highest quality. Nestle Pakistan envisions that the company should develop an extremely motivated and professionally trained work force, which would drive growth through innovation and renovation. Special training programs have been designed for employees at each level to keep up with and develop this vision.
The study concludes that Nestle has a significantly high growth rate (36%) and has grown and developed at a high pace in short span of time. On the other hand Haleeb has a market share of 28%. And Engrofoods having 21% the major contributor toward this growth and development are human resource, marketing and sales departments. The major contributor is its appropriate strategy particularly its relationship with the social and environmental sectors. Perhaps this is the reason that it in spite of being a multi-national has been well accepted in Pakistani culture. There are ample chances of its survival in future.

Keeping new players such as Olpers, and the old ones like Haleeb, Nestle focused more on advertising.

Nestle have been experiencing a constant increase in cost with raw material contributing the larger part of this increase. Haleeb having their own suppliers so the raw material cost is bit low.

Nestle maintained its value of gross profit margin around or above 30% to ensure that it has a strong control over its costs, and the efficiency of production. But on the other hand, Haleeb faced a bit of down fall when Olpers introduced their campaign.

SPACE MATRIX STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT METHOD


The SPACE matrix is a management tool used to analyze a company. It is used to determine what type of a strategy a company should undertake. The Strategic Position & Action Evaluation matrix or short

a SPACE matrix is a strategic management tool that focuses on strategy formulation especially as related to the competitive position of an organization. The SPACE matrix can be used as a basis for other analyses, such as the SWOT analysis, BCG matrix model, industry analysis, or assessing strategic alternatives ( IE matrix).The SPACE matrix calculates the importance of each of these dimensions and places them on a Cartesian graph with X and Y coordinates. The following are a few model technical assumptions: - By definition, the CA and IS values in the SPACE matrix are plotted on the X axis. -CA values can range from -1 to -6. - IS values can take +1 to +6? -The FS and ES dimensions of the model are plotted on the Y axis. - ES values can be between -1 and -6. - FS values range from +1 to +6.

BCG Matrix Model


The BCG matrix or also called BCG model relates to marketing. The BCG model is a wellknown portfolio management tool used in product life cycle theory. BCG matrix is often used to prioritize which products within company product mix get more funding and attention.

The BCG matrix model is a portfolio planning model developed by Bruce Henderson of the Boston Consulting Group in the early 1970's. The BCG model is based on classification of products (and implicitly also company business units) into four categories based on combinations of market growth and market share relative to the largest competitor.

Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix or a QSPM


The Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix or a QSPM approach attempts to objectively select the best strategy using input from other management techniques and some easy computations. In other

32

words, the QSPM method uses inputs from stage 1 analyses, matches them with results from stage 2 analyses, and then decides objectively among alternative strategies. Stage 1 strategic management tools... The first step in the overall strategic management analysis is used to identify key strategic factors. This can be done using, for example, the EFE matrix and IFE matrix. Stage 2 strategic management tools... After we identify and analyze key strategic factors as inputs for QSPM, we can formulate the type of the strategy we would like to pursue. This can be done using the stage 2 strategic management tools, for example the SWOT analysis (or TOWS), SPACE matrix analysis, BCG matrix model, or the IE matrix model. Stage 3 strategic management tools...
The stage 1 strategic management methods provided us with key strategic factors. Based on their analysis, we formulated possible strategies in stage 2. Now, the task is to compare in QSPM alternative strategies and decide which one is the most suitable for our goals.

The stage 2 strategic tools provide the needed information for setting up the Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix - QSPM. The QSPM method allows us to evaluate alternative strategies objectively.
Conceptually, the QSPM in stage 3 determines the relative attractiveness of various strategies based on the extent to which key external and internal critical success factors are capitalized upon or improved. The relative attractiveness of each strategy is computed by determining the cumulative impact of each external and internal critical success factor.

QSPM OF Engrofoods
Based on strategies in the stage 1 (IFE, EFE) and stage 2 (BCG, SPACE, IE), company executives determined that Engrofoods needs to pursue an aggressive strategy aimed at development of new products and further penetration of the market. They also identified that this strategy can be executed in two ways. One strategy is acquiring a competing company. The other strategy is to expand internally. They are now asking which option is the better one.

(Attractiveness Score: 1 = not acceptable; 2 = possibly acceptable; 3 = probably acceptable; 4 = most acceptable; 0 = not relevant)
