After going through the procedure at last we make the

In the textiles sector, GRASIM has suffered a setback. A
worsening market environment in the suitings sector,
plagued both by over-capacity and intense price-
competition, has slowed this sector.

The price of a product says something about the quality.
Even though the quality of the FREEDOM FABRICS will be
significantly higher than other leading Fabrics, the price
of the FABRICS will be determined by the prices of the
other Fabrics already in the market. This pricing strategy
is a result of positioning the FABRICS as a mainstream
product rather than a niche product.
The most important part of marketing is how a product
will get from the seller to the buyer. Many products go
through a channel of distribution, which involves,
manufactures, wholesalers, retailers, and consumers. The
Distribution strategy proposed for the FREEDOM FABRICS
is through marts, exclusive showrooms, cloth retail
stores.

Product promotion is communication spread through
advertising, publicity, and sales promotion. We suggest
that Grasim-Suitings advertise their products by using
commercial, magazine ads, the radio, ads that are to be
placed in dentist offices, billboards, and the sides of
buses. Advertising is done to promote new products,
remind consumers of existing products, and also promote
the image of the company at hand. We also suggested
that Grasim offer special coupons and rebates through
their other products, and also food products. Also,
Grasim could benefit from the usage of in-store displays.
