INTRODUCTION:
“Marketing is a total system of business, an ongoing process of:
1. Discovering and translating consumer needs and desires into the
products services (planning and producing the planned products).
2. Creating demand for this product and services (through promotion and
pricing)
3. Serving the consumer demand through planned and physical
The modern marketer is called upon to set the marketing objectives, develop the
marketing plan, organize the ,marketing function, implement the marketing plan
or programme ( marketing mix) and control the marketing programme to ensure
the accomplishment of the set marketing objectives. The marketing programme
covers producer planning or merchandising, price, promotion and distribution.
In short, modern marketing begins with the customer, not with production
cost, sales, technological landmarks and it ends with the customer satisfaction
and social well-being. Under the market- driven economy buyer or customer is
the boss.
Marketing has been viewed as an ongoing or dynamic process involving a
set of interacting activities dealing with a market offering by producers to
consumers on the basis of reliable marketing anticipation.
Marketing is a matching process by which a process by which a producer

INDUSTRY PROFILE:
Dairy is a place where handling of milk and milk products is done and
technology refers to the application of scientific knowledge for practical
purposes. Dairy technology has been defined as that branch of dairy science,
which deals with the processing of milk and the manufacture of milk products
on an industrial scale.
The dairy sector in the India has shown remarkable development in the past
decade and India has now become one of the largest producers of milk and
value-added milk products in the world.
The dairy sector has developed through co-operatives in many parts of
the State. During 1997-98, the State had 60 milk processing plants with an
aggregate processing capacity of 5.8 million litres per day. In addition to these
processing plants, 123 Government and 33 co-operatives milk chilling centers
operate in the State.
Also India today is the lowest cost producer of per litre of milk in the
world, at 27 cents, compared with the U.S' 63 cents, and Japan’s $2.8 dollars.
Also to take advantage of this lowest cost of milk production and increasing
production in the country multinational companies are planning to expand their
activities here. Some of these milk producers have already obtained quality
standard certificates from the authorities. This will help them in marketing their
products in foreign countries in processed form.
The urban market for milk products is expected to grow at an accelerated pace
of around 33% per annum to around Rs.43,500 crores by year 2005. This
growth is going to come from the greater emphasis on the processed foods
sector and also by increase in the conversion of milk into milk products. By
2005, the value of Indian dairy produce is expected to be Rs 10,00,000 million.
Presently the market is valued at around Rs7,00,000 mn.
India contributes to world milk production rise from 12-15 % & it will increase
up to 30-35% (year 2020)
The facts and figures here shown are calculated on the basis of percentage
increases pear year.

Company profile
Company Profile of Amul:
AMUL means "priceless" in Sanskrit. The brand name "Amul," from the
Sanskrit "Amoolya," was suggested by a quality control expert in Anand.
Variants, all meaning "priceless", are found in several Indian languages. Amul
products have been in use in millions of homes since 1946. Amul Butter, Amul
Milk Powder, Amul Ghee, Amulspray, Amul Cheese, Amul Chocolates, Amul
Shrikhand, Amul Ice cream, Nutramul, Amul Milk and Amulya have made
Amul a leading food brand in India. (Turnover: Rs. 52.55 billion in 2007-08).
Today Amul is a symbol of many things. Of high-quality products sold at
reasonable prices.
50 years after it was first launched, Amul's sale figures have jumped from
1000 tonnes a year in 1966 to over 25,000 tonnes a year in 1997. No other
brand comes even close to it. All because a thumb-sized girl climbed on to the
hoardings and put a magical spell on the masses
Amul (Anand milk union ltd.) is abased on four hands, which are coordinated
with each other. The actual meaning of this symbol is co-ordination of four
hands of different people by whom this union is at the top position in Asia.
o First hand is of farmers, without whom the organization would not
have existed.
o Second hand is of processors, who process the row material (milk)
into finished goods.
o Third hand is of marketer, without whom the product would have
(GCMMF), which today is jointly owned by some 2.6 million milk producers in
Gujarat, India.
AMUL is based in Anand, Gujarat and has been a sterling example of a
co-operative organization's success in the long term. It is one of the best
examples of co-operative achievement in the developing world. "Anyone who
has seen ... the dairy cooperatives in the state of Gujarat, especially the highly
successful one known as AMUL, will naturally wonder what combination of
influences and incentives is needed to multiply such a model a thousand times
over in developing regions everywhere. ”The Amul Pattern has established itself
as a uniquely appropriate model for rural development. Amul has spurred the
White Revolution of India, which has made India the largest producer of milk
and milk products in the world. It is also the world's biggest vegetarian cheese
brand.
Amul is the largest food brand in India and world's Largest Pouched Milk Brand
with an annual turnover of US $1050 million (2006-07). Currently Amul has 2.6
million producer members with milk collection average of 10.16 million litres
per day. Besides India, Amul has entered overseas markets such as Mauritius,
UAE, USA, Bangladesh, Australia, China, Singapore, Hong Kong and a few
South African countries. Its bid to enter Japanese market in 1994 had not
succeeded, but now it has fresh plans of flooding the Japanese markets. Other
potential markets being considered include Sri Lanka.
Dr Verghese Kurien, former chairman of the GCMMF, is recognized
as the man behind the success of Amul. On 10 Aug 2006 Parthi Bhatol,
chairman of the Banaskantha Union, was elected chairman of GCMMF.
The mighty Ganges at its origin is but a tiny stream in the Gangotri ranges of
the Himalayas. Similar is the story of Amul which inspired Operation Flood and
heralded the 'White Revolution' in India. It began with two village cooperatives
and 250 liters of milk per day, nothing but a trickle compared to the flood it has
become today. Today Amul collects processes and distributes over a million
liters of milk and milk products per day, during the peak, on behalf of more than
a thousand village cooperatives owned by half a million farmer members.
Further, as Ganga-ma carries the aspirations of generations for moksha, Amul
too has become a symbol of the aspirations of millions of farmers.Creating a
pattern of liberation and self-reliance for every farmer to follow.
that they needed to form some sort of an organization. This realization is what
led to the establishment of the Kaira District Cooperative Milk Producers'
Union Limited (popularly known as Amul) which was formally registered on
December 14, 1946.
The Kaira Union began pasteurizing milk for the Bombay Milk Scheme in June
1948. An assured market proved a great incentive to the milk producers of the
district. By the end of 1948, more than 400 farmers joined in more village
societies, and the quantity of milk handled by one Union increased from 250 to
5,000 liters a day.
Looking back on the path traversed by Amul, the following features make it a
pattern and model for emulation elsewhere. Amul has been able to:
• Bring at the command of the rural milk producers the best of the
technology and harness its fruit for betterment
• Produce an appropriate blend of the policy makers farmers board of
management and the professionals: each group appreciating its roles and
limitations
• Plough back the profits, by prudent use of men, material and machines, in
the rural sector for the common good and betterment of the member
producers and
The Union looks after policy formulation, processing and marketing of milk,
provision of technical inputs to enhance milk yield of animals, the artificial
insemination service, veterinary care, better feeds and the like - all through the
village societies.The village society also facilitates the implementation of
various production enhancement and member education programs undertaken
by the Union. The staff of the village societies has been trained to undertake the
veterinary first-aid and the artificial insemination activities on their own.

Theoretical Background of This Study
Many companies are aiming for high satisfaction because customers who are
just satisfied still it find it easy to switch when better offer comes along. Those
who are highly satisfied are much less ready to switch. High satisfaction creates

highly customer loyalty. Hence an attempt has been made to identify the
customer attitude and satisfaction on Amul Milk Products
behavior.

CHAPTER – 3
THEORITICAL DISCUSSION
INTRODUCTION:
The term “market” is derived from the Latin word ‘Marcatus’ which
means to trade or place of business. So in the literal sense and in the ordinary
language, the term ‘Market’ refers to a certain place, where buyers and sellers
personally meet each other and make their purchase and sales. In short, it means
a certain place where goods are bought and sold.
However in commerce the term ‘Market’ is used in the economic sense.
In the economic sense the term ‘Market’ does not refer to any particular place
where buyers and sellers meet face to face and make their purchase and sales,
but covers the whole of any region, where the buyers and sellers are in such free
intercourse, that is contract or communication with one another that a single
price prevails for a certain commodity at a certain point of time through the
region.
In short, it means the getting together of buyers and sellers in person or
any by mail telephone, telegraph of through any other means of communication.
Marketing:
The meaning of the term ‘marketing’ can be studied under two heads.
They are,
1. Traditional or old view of marketing
2. Modern of customer oriented marketing
Definition:
According to the American Marketing Association, “Marketing is the
performances of business activities that direct the flow of goods and services
from producer to customer or user”
Customer loyalty develops from personal relationships and trust between the
company and the customer over time. This includes keeping customers involved
throughout the product lifecycle as well as developing products and/or services
to meet changing customer needs and desires.

Market Segmentation:
The process of talking the total heterogeneous market for a product &
dividing it in to several sub markets each which tend to be homogeneous in all
significances.
There are few bases for segmentation markets,
• Customer characteristics
• Consumer responses
These variables can be used singly or in combination, business marketer use all
these variable as along with operating variables, purchasing approaches,
substantial, accessible, differentiable, & actionable.
Customer Behavior:

Customer Expectation:
Customer expectation through look realistic is very often build upon on a
very high platform. Then the quality of the product or services may not match
the expectation. This again will affect the consumer satisfaction level.
So as to reduce the level of dissatisfaction among the customers, the
marketing decision maker could adopt approaches wherein he can classify
market in relation to the degree of opportunity to deliver customer satisfaction.
He could establish itself common factors & them evaluate each market
opportunity against these. The most probable factors which influence
consumer’s behaviors are:
o Market size
o Rate of growth of the market
o Stability or demand
o The due importance attached to price by the consumers before
making a purchase decision
o Consumer emphasis & the due importance given to the quality
aspect
o The consumers desire for product innovation
o The level of competition (inclusive of both existing & potential
competitors)
o The firm’s competitive strengths in terms of price & product
Feedback:
Many of the companies are entrusting their customers to give a feedback
& use this as a means of maintaining regular contact & dialogue, having
realized the importance of obtaining a feedback the consumers. Rather than
avoiding comment, companies are encouraging their customers to talk, as
mention above, feedback helps them, market firm to get on idea of the
customers view point on their product or services & more important is that this
information will help them to take action & deal with any problem immediately.
Brands:
Brands were originally developed as labels of own ship: Name Term
Design and Symbol. However, they today it is what they for people that matters
much more, powerful brands can drive success in competitive and financial
markets, and indeed become the organization’s most valuable assets.
Brand Loyalty:
It has been proclaimed by some to be the ultimate goal of marketing. In
marketing, brand loyalty consist of a consumer’s commitment to repurchase the
brand and can be demonstrated by repeated buying of a product or service or
other positive behaviors such as word of mouth advocacy. True brand loyalty
implies that the consumer is willing, st least on occasion, to put aside their own
desires in the interest of the brand.
Customer Focus:
Many companies today have a customer focus (or customer orientation).
This implies that the company focuses its activities and products on consumer
demands. Generally there are three ways of doing this: the customer driven
approach, the sense of identifying market changes and the product innovation
approach.
In the consumer driven approach, consumer wants are the drivers of all
strategic marketing decision. No strategy is pursued until it passes the test of
consumer research. Every aspect of a market offering, including the nature of
the product itself, is driven by the needs of potential customers. The starting
point is always consumer. The rationale for this approach is that there is no
point spending R&D funds developing products that people will not buy.
History attested to many products that were commercial failure in spite of being
technological breakthroughs.
Customer Loyalty:
“It takes a lot less money to increase your retention of current than to find
new ones but I know I don’t give it as much effort as I should because it does
take a lot of energy and effort”

FINDINGS, SUGGESTIONS AND CONCLUSIONS:
FINDINGS:
This chapter is including in my survey findings, suggestions and
conclusions of my study. First I would like to present my survey findings. The
main findings of my survey are as follows:
1. It is findings in the survey that females are the main decision maker for
the milk and milk products. As per the data, 65% of female and 35% of
male makes purchase decision.
2. Based on the occupation of the customer, it is found in the survey that
65% are the housewives and 35% are from various occupations such as a
businessman, employee, farmers, etc for the Amul Milk & Milk products.
3. Incomes less than 5000 to 10000 are more attracted to Amul Milk & Milk
products. As per the data, 79% of the respondents’ income is under this
group.
4. The main purchasing factors for the Amul Milk & Milk products are
Quality and Brand image. The data reveals that 42% influences on
Quality and 32% influenced for the Brand.
5. 88% of the total respondents are using product since from a long time.
The majority of the respondents are using Amul Milk & Milk products
from more than 3 years.
6. Overall opinion of the product performance data reveals that Amul
product satisfies 70% of the respondent and 30% respondent’s opinion is
average.
7. It is found in the survey that 32% of the total respondents are dissatisfied
on dealer’s services.
SUGGESTIONS:
1. Milk and milk product purchase decisions are more decided by women
rather than male, because she act as a invigilator, execute her decision
and influence the same to the purchase while ascertaining the quality,
freshness and price. Hence, I suggest Amul co-operative society to
concentrate more on the women and men suggestions for designing the
marketing strategy, because women’s role in the house is dominant, even
in the various decisions.
2. Occupation of the user influences the purchase decisions. The particular
occupation plays a vital role in deciding the product or services. Women
segment are influencing more on milk and milk products. Therefore, an
occupation is the factor influencing the product.
3. Income of the people decides the purchasing power. The high income
prefers to purchase product with the quality, freshness, thickness, etc. and
vice versa. So I suggest Amul to concentrate also on low income segment
to capture market and position themselves in the minds of the customer
with required quality and quality milk and milk products.
4. Quality and Brand Image plays a dominant role. Milk and milk products
move in the market due to its quality and brand. Therefore it should
maintain the same.
5. Since Amul is having loyal customer it should concentrate more on this
factor through various potential programmes such as campaign, premium
packs, offers etc., this helps to increase the loyalty towards the Amul
products.
6. As only 30% of the total respondents are dissatisfied which is quite a
large percentage and this may influence negatively and increase the rate
of switch over. Hence I suggest management to concentrate on few
product quality, shelf life, dealers approach, outlet maintenance etc. will
help Amul to satisfy to a greater extent.
7. Milk and milk product are having high demand and it is considered as a
very essential products. In present practice, purchase of milk and milk
products is through dealers. In this connection dealers approach towards
the product.
8. Customer is influential, hence I suggest Amul to look after the dealers
issue with due care.
9. When product possesses quality and other important attributes naturally
they propaganda about product through word of mouth and vice versa.
Therefore if the quality and attributes are fine tuned according to the
needs will help the Amul to get reputation and addition market.
10. Introduction of various economic products lies may help Amul to attract
the existing and new customers and may attract all income level groups.
Hence I suggest management to introduce new product line which can
satisfy the entire group.
Conclusions:
From the survey conducted it is observed that Amul milk and Milk
products has a good market share.
From the study conducted the following conclusions can be drawn. In
order the dreams into reality and for turning liabilities into assets one must have
to meet the needs of the customers.
The factors considered by the customer before purchasing milk are
freshness, taste, thickness and easy availability.
Finally I conclude that, majority of the customers are satisfied with the
Amul milk and Milk products because of its good quality, reputation, easy
availabilities. Some customers are not satisfied with the Amul Milk & Milk
products because of high price, lack of dealer services, spoilage and low shelf
life etc. therefore, if slight modification in the marketing programme such as
dealers and outlets, promotion programmers, product lines etc., definitely
company can be as a monopoly and strong market leader.
Amul has also to take care of its competitors into consideration and more
importantly it’s customers before making any move.
