Goa
Promotional offer plays a very important role in selling more of HLL- Bru coffee by
the retailers
Nescafe Sunrise coffee is having more customer demand as regard HLL- Bru in the
market.
There is less focus given on advertisement for Nescafe sunrise coffee.
HLL is having more Product line in coffee segment so the retailers are having a wide
choice to keep the product according to the customer demand.

CONCLUSION
Nestle India Limited is one of the fastest growing FMCG Company with its strengths
for ongoing product innovation & renovation. It performs very well. It still have a stiff
competition in the market for its various products especially from HLL Bru Coffee for
Nestle s Nescafe Sunrise Premium Coffee.
The analysis & Interpretation made in this study by me comes to the conclusion that
there is an increasing demand for coffee in Goa. Promotional offer plays a very important
role incase of retailers to sell more & Consumers to purchase more. HLL strength in coffee
segment is that it offers better promotional offer to the retailers, so the retailers are influence
to sell more even though the demand is more to Nestle s Sunrise Coffee in Goa.
Finally I would like to conclude that Nestle s Nescafe Sunrise coffee can capture the
HLL Bru market share if there is more attractive promotional offer & consumer awareness
to have more reach to the consumer in the market.

COMPETITIVE ANALYSES
Competitive analysis, as the name implies, is an exploration of the companies in a given
industry sector or market niche that are competing with your company s products or services
for market share. The analysis may be an in-depth exploration of the top five competitors, or
a larger number of competitors could be examined (typically with less depth in the analysis).
In most cases, the client will have identified the target competitors for you.
While this project focuses on competitive analysis in the for-profit arena, it is worth noting
that non-profit organizations can benefit equally from this analysis (which they might term a
comparative analysis, if they viewed the other organizations as working toward a common
goal with them).
The primary benefits of any competitive analysis are a better understanding of what your
competitors are doing, what they are offering to customers, and how to maintain your
competitive advantage. The findings from this analysis are likely to factor strongly into your
own company s strategic planning. However, this is definitely not the only take-away from
the process of analyzing competitors.
The analysis offers information about content and functionality that they have probably not
considered. This is especially true for newcomers to your industry and should be fairly
common; not everyone will be a subject matter expert. Looking longer-term, this educational
process benefits not only the current project, but also any future project in that same
industry.
Doing this project has really enhanced my performance for the next project ever will be held
in my career. It has given me the practical exposure while working in such competitive
market

About HLL- Bru coffee
On the coffee front, HLL has had success only in the southern states. Bru coffee has
been popular only in the south. Its popularity is linked to the strong association it has with
the filter coffee, which forms the morning cuppa of most south Indian homes. Surely, the
company s campaign launched in the sixties to attract the south Indian consumers has
achieved its objective.
Now, the company is all set to relaunch Bru in a big way in the entire country. Instant
coffee that filters well with your taste bud, is the catchline of the company s nationwide
campaign to popularise the brew.
The company also plans to install coffee-vending machines on strategic locations like
airports, railway stations, restaurants, cinema halls, theatres and shopping malls throughout
India. It has already installed machines in several locations in Mumbai and Delhi.
Coffee has been doing badly in the international market for the last two years. Despite a
fall in prices of raw coffee, retail sales in the Indian market, instead of improving, have gone
down by about 9 per cent. Bru has a 36-per cent share in the instant coffee market.
With HLL s new advertising campaign - Happiness begins with Bru - the FMGC
major plans to storm the entire country and hopes to increase its market share.
Already, the company s coffee sales have gone up by 10 per cent in the first half of this year.
Coffee business had another exciting year. The instant coffee category registered strong
growth aided by the relaunch of Bru with a new high impact identity backed by
communication and modern pack formats. The brand franchise was further strengthened
with the filter coffee brand, Deluxe
Green label being relaunched as Bru Roast & Ground. The change has been we! I received
by consumers and is expected to drive growth and enhanced imagery for the brand.

CONCLUSION
Nestle India Limited is one of the fastest growing FMCG Company with its strengths
for ongoing product innovation & renovation. It performs very well. It still have a stiff
competition in the market for its various products especially from HLL Bru Coffee for
Nestle s Nescafe Sunrise Premium Coffee.
The analysis & Interpretation made in this study by me comes to the conclusion that
there is an increasing demand for coffee in Goa. Promotional offer plays a very important
role incase of retailers to sell more & Consumers to purchase more. HLL strength in coffee
segment is that it offers better promotional offer to the retailers, so the retailers are influence
to sell more even though the demand is more to Nestle s Sunrise Coffee in Goa.
Finally I would like to conclude that Nestle s Nescafe Sunrise coffee can capture the
HLL Bru market share if there is more attractive promotional offer & consumer awareness
to have more reach to the consumer in the market.
