HISTORY

Most of the have a modest beginning. The infancy of this company


began more than 20 years ago in 1982 with the efforts of Mr. Bhikubhai,
Mr. Chandubhai, Mr. kanubhai & the numbers of their famil y.

When Chandubhai & Bhikhubhai was working an contact basis for


suppl ying of wafers to canteen of Astron theatre at Rajkot cit y they got
readymade products from third part y manufacturer & suppl y the same to
canteen of astron theatre. But as usual there was problem of short suppl y
as well as delay in suppl y of the product an time. As this kind of problem
lead a business to verify “something” had to be alone in these regards as
the ultimate

To all these problems they decide to manufacture wafers its own &
suppl y the same to canteen. And thus foundation of the Balaji was setup
without any brand name.

This development had lead Balaji wafers producers to “Balaji


Wafers Pvt Ltd in 1990. They introduc ed production & packaging
machinery in 1997 to deal with huge demand.

Recentl y they had set up a huge full y automatic plant with the
production capacit y of 1200 Kg. per how far production as well as
nitrogen filler packaging far long -term presentation of the products.

BALAJI AND VIRANI:

Balaji and Virani -- the combination sounds familiar. The Virani


famil y of Balaji Telefilms’ show Kyunki saas bhi kabhi bahu thi may be
a household name, but here’s an other Virani famil y from real, not reel,
life that has stormed Gujarati homes. With Balaji snack foods, what else?
When four Virani brothers from Rajkot (Saurashtra) – Meghjibhai,
Chandubhai, Bhikhubhai and Kanubha i – entered the snackfoods business
two decades ago, they never thought that one day they would give the
MNCs a bite for their money. But today, Balaji Wafers has emerged more
than a munch for Pepsi’s Frito – Lay, with almost 70% of the state’s
wafers market in its pocket, err, packet.

Their very own version of the Virani famil y drama, starting in


Saurashtra’s commercial club Rajkot in a dingy cinema hall canteen, has
all the masala of an entrepreneurial zing. But that’s where the similarit y
between the TV show and famil y business drama seems to end. The
Virani’s say they never quite borrowed the Virani – Balaji combo from
TV; if at all, it should have been the other way round. Because their
Balaji saga actuall y started back in 1982, when Balaji Telef ilms promoter
Jeetendra was still known as the Jumping Jack.

Born to a farming famil y in the nondescript Dhundhoraji village in


Jamnagar district, brothers Virani first dirtied their hands in the diamond
and agriculture kits business in the mid 1970s. But the effort ended in
disaster. “We tried trading in diamonds and agricultural kits. But lost the
entire Rs. 20, 000 capital our father gave us”. Says Chandubhai,
managing director of Balaji Wafers Pvt. Ltd, and a class X
passout.Chandubhai and his bro ther Meghjibhai next took up jobs in
Rajkot’s Astron Cinema selling refreshments. “I earned Rest. 100 per
month while m y brother took home Rs. 155,” he recalls.

8
Later, when the cinema owner Govindbhai handed over the canteen
to them on contract basis in 1976, Chandubhai introduced sandwiches,
with a little help from the dadies of his household who supplied him with
exotic home made masala. The sandwiches soon went on to prove an
instant hit in the Saurashtra region. Even, the Viranies continue sellin g
their sandwiches, though they rake in less than a fraction of their
turnover.

Noticing earl y on that potato wafers constituted 80% of the


refreshment sale, the brothers decided to turn that into their core business.
That’s when Balaji was born. “We e ven managed to get a specialist cook,
but he turned out to be a shirker. So, often, I had to slice potatoes and fr y
them m yself,” Says Chandubhai, strongl y advocating a do -it-yourself
attitude towards business.

“The demand for wafers was tremendous and the suppl y limited,
given the distribution constraints in those days. Companies located in
Mumbai could not meet the local demand, so we decided to pitch in and
make good of the suppl y gap,” says Chandubhai, turning nostalgic at
thought of how, 23 years ago, he had purchased 60 kg potatoes to make 15
kg of wafers.

Today, with gradual automation that began in 1993 Balaji has the
capacit y to produce 1200 kg wafers per hour. The viranies even took a
Rs. 15 Crore loan from corporation bank to mechanize prod uction. The
technology was sourced from the U.S. and U.K and Germany to help
improve qualit y.

It market estimates are to be believed, Viranies have build Rs. 150


Crore business out of potato wafers. Of course the brothers themselves

9
refused to reveal the size of their profit and sales. However market
estimates, says that it could be around 125 Crore.

All that they say, instead, is that in the first ten years, 1982 to 1992
while the business grew the revenues were small. So even as the famil y
sifted to a 750 sq. yard house in the cit y, famil y members continued to do
most of the processing including procuring potatoes, cleaning them,
frying them and even packaging them. From going about distributing the
product on a moped, they bought a rickshaw t wo years latter. A tempo
was subsequentl y added with a Rs. 1.8 lakh loan form a bank.

INTRODUCTION

For every activit y done there is gone objective behind it. There
may be various objectives behind doing marketing research. The
objectives may be to get the answer of the questions like who buys such
products. How often do they buy it? Etc. After deciding the objective,
the next step is the research purpose i.e. the method that will be used for
the research purpose.

The different methods for conducting marketing research are as


follows:-

1. Opinion pool methods

2. Survey methods:
a. Personal survey (Questionnaire)
b. Mail survey
c. Telephone survey

3. Expert opinion method

In m y report I have used Personal Survey M ethod. The


questionnaire was prepared keeping in view certain objectives.

41
RESEARCH OBJECTIVE

“Marketing research is the systematic design, collection,


analysis and reporting of data and findings relevant to a specific
marketing situation facing the company”.
–Philip Kotler

This first step calls for the marketing research to find the problem
carefull y and agree on research objective “a problem well defined is hale
solved.”

Advertising plays important role to increase sale. But today no one


is going to sale or purchase good if they are not getting extra benefit.
Today is an era of getting extra. The research is the onl y way which is
helpful in finding out all the problems. The main objective of my
research work is to find out consumer satisfaction for Balaji Wafers
with respect to its product features.

42
DEVELOPMENT OF RESEARCH PLAN

The second stage of marketing research calls for developing the


most efficient plan for gathering the need information. Designing a
research plan calls for decisions on the followings.

1. DATA SOURCES: The researcher can gather primary data as well


as secondary data. Primary data are gathered for a specific purpose
and for a specific research project. The primary source of my
project work is the sample of consumers of the Rajkot district .

2. RESEARCH APPROACHES: Primary data can be collected in five


ways: observation, focus group, survey, behavioral data, and
experiments. Out of these five we have gone for surveys. Survey
researches are best suited of descriptive research to learn about
people’s knowl edge, beliefs, preference, and satisfaction and to
measure these magnitudes in the general population.

3. RESEARCH INSTRUMENTS: Marketing research has a choice of


two main researches instrumental in collecting primary data:
questionnaires and mechanical devi ces. For a better option I had
gone for questionnaires. A questionnaire consists of a set of
questions presented to respondents for their answers. Because of its
flexibilit y, the questionnaire is by far the most common instrument
used to collect primary data.

4. SAMPLING PLAN: After deciding on the research approach and


instruments, it is necessary to design a sampling plan. This plan
calls for three decisions:

43
(a) Sampling unit:

Who is to be surveyed? It should be defined in a research the target


population that will be sampled. Once the sampling unit is determined, a
sampling frame must be developed so that everyone in the target
population has an equal chance of being sampled. To fulfill this purpose,
I had taken consumers as a sample

(b) Sample size:

How many people should be surveyed? Large samples give more


reliable results than small samples. However, it is not necessary to
sample the entire target population or even a sub stantial portion to
achieve reliable results. Samples of less than 1% of the population can
often provide good reliabilit y, given a credible sampling procedure. So, I
had decided to take the sample size as 100 from consumers of Rajkot
district.

(c)Sampling procedure:

How should the respondents to be chosen? To obtain a


representative sample I, had selected consumers of Rajkot district who
prefers Balaji Wafers.

44
CONTACT METHODS

Once the sampling plan has been determined, it must be decided


how the subject should be contacted: mail, telephone, personal, or on -line
interviews. So, for my research I had selected personal interview
(Questionnaire). As personal interviewing is the m ost versatile method,
the interviewer can ask more questions and record additional observations
about the respondent. Personal interviewing is the most expensive method
and requires more administrative planning and supervision than three,
which is the big loop hole of it.

SUGGESTION

For such giant organization I don’t have any suggestion to give but there
are some eye catching loops.

 Company has opportunities to expand the business in its field &


other field also.
 Through advertising company should go for national &
international market.
 They should advertise their products by modern means of media.
 They should use promotional tools to increase their sales.

87
LIMITATION OF THE STUDY

Each and every study has several limitations so in m y study has also
some limitation.

1. I did sampling by the Probability Area Sampling so some of the


remote area of the Rajkot is not covered

2. The findings are based on the research in Rajkot City onl y and
thus the conclusions may not be true for other cities.

3. Times and costs were always a constraint.

4. The study can not give the accurate results because the sample
size is very small.
