possible without the support and cooperation of others. We must first
thank God, who makes all things possible. We know that this project was
not our individual achievement, but the result of many people to whom we

one that you realize how massive the effort it really is, or how much you
must rely upon the selfless efforts and goodwill of others. We would be
failing in our duty if we do not express our deep sense of gratitude to
those who have been kind enough to help us in preparation of this report.

PREAMBLE
Entrepreneurship is the practice of starting new organizations or revitalizing mature
organizations, particularly new businesses generally in response to identified opportunities.
Entrepreneurship is often a difficult undertaking, as a vast majority of new businesses fail.
Entrepreneurial activities are substantially different depending on the type of organization
that is being started.
The food industry is a thriving sector in the Indian economy and holds approximately 4% of
the Indian GDP. We should note that the Bakery food has seen in the past few years a growth
in the sales and revenues between the periods of 2004 to 2009. However, with the economic
downturn that the world is currently experiencing the IRFA (Indian Restaurant & Foodservice
Association) is predicting a decline of the industry between 2008 and 2009.
Indian People love to eat. We find the social environment of food product the perfect break
from cooking, and relish the adventure of tasting new menus. People of India spend lavishly
on their eating habit; we take the advantage of this habit of them.
We herein The cakery food product strive to deliver the products with the green ambience
which the customers wont find elsewhere. Quality of products is paramount to us. Vegetarian
people need not to travel here and there for the Bakery food product, we will provide them
the best Cake and pastry they can ever have.

Our motto is to provide quality products to the customers so that they demand our
product again and again.

We try to make small contribution to the environment by using paper for packaging of
our products.

We believe that business enterprise is never complete if it doesnt make contribution

beyond building a good business. So we constantly work to improve the quality of
people whosoever is associated with us.

We try to ensure that the customer is getting best service from us.

We will be taking the feedback of the customers and look for modification of our
products and services in response to the feedback.

PURPOSE OF STUDY
The objective of this project Business Proposal is to get insight the real business scenario.
It will help us to grow as entrepreneurs because they are the need of our growing economy.
There is large opportunity in every sector waiting to be exploited for sustaining the growth of
our nation. In this project we will learn how to commence a business ,how to take the
strategic decisions such as developing vision & mission for the organization , selecting the
particular business, looking for the strategic location for the growth of the business, chalking
out the production & marketing plan. It will also help us to understand the dynamism of the
market & will nurture the customer centric approach in us. Being an essential part of our
course curriculum this project brings out our hidden qualities & natural creativity that are
must for the successful completion of this project.
We have found that as an owner you will get to know a lot of people. It is very social
business, with lots of invitations to social events and private parties. You will be on a firstname basis with people who have power and prestige: the conductor of the symphony, the
coach of the football team, the mayor, television celebrities, and so on. When they will use
your services, you are the one they want to talk to. It makes them feel important, so they will
seek you out to become your friend. The following information should serve as a guide in
helping you make that decision. The information provided is by no means meant to be allinclusive, but it will, we hope, provide some useful guidelines to help in your decision
making. The purpose of the study also rotates around the fact whether we ourselves are going
to start the business or the other would take a valuable suggestion. In both the case the
purpose of the study would be fulfilled.
Our purpose of study can be summarized as follows:

To increase knowledge base.

To develop entrepreneurial skill.

To understand business aspects and complications.

To give a virtual existence to our future business

THE BUSINESS
Bakery Food is something one cant stay away with; we also love to taste variety of
food. This statement motivates us to go for the Bakery business in India. We have suggested
for Bakery food product because up till now there is no branded Bakery food product which
sells exclusively Bakery food. THE CAKERY FOOD PRODUCT is a new Bakery product
manufacturer which primarily sells Bread, Cake, Cream roll, pastry, pao, toast. The punch
line of The Bakery Food Product is THE TASTE OF YOUR CHOICE.

Vision
To become the most preferred Bakery product manufacturer among the people by treating the
people in the way they like to be treated and give them best for the least.

Mission
The Cakery Food Product aims to be a cornerstone in the community creating a
neighbourhood atmosphere where customers feel comfortable and become instant regulars.
We seek fair and responsible profit, enough to keep the company financially healthy for the
long term and to fairly compensate for our money and risk.

Objectives
1. To establish a working storefront for The Cakery food Product bakery.
2. To develop the strong presence in the community needed to support sales goals.
3. To develop a full menu by the end of first 100 Days.
4. To provide the true flavour of India at reasonable cost.

Company Ownership
Currently The Cakery food Product Bakery is a partnership firm of two partner which are
Rohit Gupta and Saurabh Singh . Eventually, as the company becomes established, The
Cakery food Product Bakery will apply to be incorporated.

Company Summary
The Cakery food Product Bakery will be located in Nani which is Very peace full and green
atmosphere. This Town is a very popular destination because of the historical architecture for
weekenders and tourists. It is also a prime location for all the employees of the surrounding
bakery businesses. The bakery sells non-wheat and other health specific breads, sweets and
pastries to the surrounding community every 24*7.

Customers: Customer is the ultimate Boss for any company, he has the power of even sacking the owner
of the company, the only thing he will do that he will not purchase the products of the
particular company, so before starting of any business entrepreneur should have clear idea of
whom to target. We target the middle and upper middle class people area who like to have
bakery food. Mainly our target is ultimate User consumer and children. The Cakery food
Product will focus on three distinct customer segments area.

Management Team:- Recognizing the importance of human capital, The Cakery food
Product has assembled a strong management team. Most important to the cakery food product
is the financial success which will be achieved through strict financial controls. Additionally
success will be ensured by offering high quality services and extremely clean and healthy
food with Indian taste.
The Cakery food Product is an exciting opportunity that combines, fresh
baked goods with bread, cake products, addressing the recent need for these new products.
Demand for these products is expected to grow exponentially as our target market .Through a
combination of a strong management team, a solid business model, and exciting, market
demanded products will allow The Cakery food Product to quickly gain market penetration
and cash richness.

Marketing
8 | Page

Marketing means creating awareness and willingness in the customers to purchase the
products. Marketing is one of the most important aspects of the business because without
awareness of the products it cannot be sold.
We planned to sell our products with the fallowing advertisement strategy

We will attach a leaflet shaped paper pamphlet to all the leading newspaper in Allahabad.
On the leaflet there will be a description of our particular and on the back of leaflet there
will be a quotation about the nutritional value of particular product but there will be
nothing in the quotation that will be affect the sentiments of non vegetarian people
because after all they will also be our customers.

Before 15 days of inauguration of our business we will seek permission from the
respective Authority for putting the holding about our product. On holding we will keep
information about our product, the pamphlet will be large enough so that the information
will be visible to the people.

We also provide our products free home delivery.

SWOT Analysis:Strength:
No branded bakery food product which sells exclusively Cake and Pastry. It provides variety
of cake , Bread, cream roal, toast, and Cake formed by different Flavour which give the
customer an Indian taste.
Weakness:
There is a risk in starting this business because it will be first of its kind.
Threats:
There is no direct competitor as such but we can consider local player of the particular area as
our competitors because they are selling same product with low cost. If talk about
International player Britannia also provides some same product, Britannia is also well
recognized brand among the customer and its sales are maximum among the various products
in India which is a major threat.
9 | Page

Opportunity:
There is a large customer base, as India is having maximum number of vegetarian peoples.
Indians spend around 51% of their personal expenditure on their eating habit.

THE LOCATION
For any business player location plays a vital role. The success and the future of the company
depends on that place from where selling of the product and availability the required raw
material is feasible and in least possible cost. Location- our preferable location is Nani
Allahabad near the Nani railway station.
Reasons for Investing:Nani consists of Economic area of Uttar Pradesh, as we know that Nani is well known
Junction in northern railway and also have some important factors which are..
Cheap land, labor cost which are very essential for starting any business.
The location of the Cakery food product is easily reachable location for our target market
so cheap transportation cost occurring during supply and receiving the goods.
Easily availability of Supplier and raw material.
No branded bakery is present in this area, a monopoly type situation in the bakery
business in this area.
Very peace full and green atmosphere.
Another thing to consider is whether or not this is a high crime area, people may not stop
if they don't feel safe. Destruction of property, robbery and employee safety is other
considerations.

Target Market Segment Strategy :In our target market, we will mainly focus on the "Teenagers group" since they are the most
prevalent and steady of customers. We expect that the "working man group" and the '"house
hold" group will make up a smaller portion of our customers. We have not listed "regular
customers" as a target group since the customers who do not fit into any of our groups are too
varied to segment. We are specifically filling the needs of the "house hold group" so we
expect the most business from this group.

Industry Analysis
The estimate made by the Ministry of Food Processing Industries, the total market of bakery
product, bread and biscuit is estimated at 1.5mn ton and 1.1mn ton respectively. The cake
market is estimated at 0.4mn ton. The organized segment of the biscuit market is estimated to
be 0.44mn tons whereas the unorganized sector accounts for the balance 0.66mn tons. Bread
market is estimated to be growing at around 7% pa in volume terms, whereas the biscuit
market in the recent years has witnessed a little higher growth at around 8-10% pa. Within the
18 | P a g e

biscuit category, cream and specialty biscuits are growing at faster pace at 20% pa, while the
popular segment is growing.
The Cakery food Product bakery competes in the Food Services Industry. In
addition to competing with other organic and non-wheat bakeries, it competes with all
restaurants, delis, bakeries and supermarkets for a share of its customers food dollar. The
Cakery food Product is most concerned with competitors who differentiate their products and
services with a healthy, organic focus. Because this group is so large, The Cakery food
Product has chosen to limit its analysis to other gluten-free bakeries.

TECHNICAL KNOW HOW

The great majority of developing countries including in India poor and suffer from overpopulation and consequent higher rates of unemployment. The technology of advanced by
definition is capital intensive, whereas the technology required in most developing countries
has to be employment-intensive. This is, therefore the basic contradiction. The transfer of
capital-intensive technology into developing countries is likely to worsen the employment
position as such technology would deny the unemployed the extremists, therefore, argue for
an almost total rejection of transferring western technology to Indian conditions. The
technical exists not in research laboratories, not in factories machines, nor in engineering
data, drawing and patents. It exists in the multi-disciplinary group consisting of scientists,
engineers, accounts, managers, operations and maintenance teams other groups who have
together developed the technology. So, in business, technology exists where it has been
assimilated and adapted successfully and is able to undergo diffusion. In fact the assimilation,
adaptation and diffusion of know-how results in technology. The technical knowhow
includes following components such as:

Quality of the product.

Specification of the raw materials inputs to various components.

Details of the plant & machinery and their layout.

Engineering and process flow chart, manufacturing instructions.

Load diagrams and material balance.

DEMAND FOR THE PRODUCT

Demand analysis is one of the important parts of any kind of business, before establishing
the business in market. According to our project it is necessary to find out new trend Bakery
product and past requirement of the market that the project which we are going to established
whether it is successful in that particular area or not. Consumption trend can be measure
,through demand position or customer life style .Because in todays scenario customer needs
best quality of baking product at cheaper rate it can be easily analyze through current
population of the our target customer area.
Demand trend only analyses through customers interest
of that particular area, Supply position of any market is depending on number of customer
available in that particular area. More the number of the customer more is the demand and
vice-versa. It mainly consist the market from where the businessman take the raw material it
is depend on the past and present respond of the customer. Nani is situated in the centre of
our large Papulation,In Allahabad if we talk about life pattern of the people ,mostly belongs
26 | P a g e

to middle class and teenagers they are mostly prefers bakery product such as Bread, Toast
and Pao as breakfast in comparison to fast food so they play important role increasing
demand of bakery product.
Allahabad is city having large number of people and there are also tourists
who visit the Allahabad to see its cultural heritage and Sangam.

WHY WE ARE INTERESTED IN THIS PROJECT

We are interested in this project because two of our neighbours are already in this business
and they are generating enough profit with this business. We had also organized a south
Indian food stall in Kshitiz one of renowned festival of our college and we made profit. This
has inspired me to open a Bakery business.
In spite of this, We are a food loving person. I take interest in cooking and having different
varieties of meal. Secondly, through studies I found that bakery business is the fastest
growing business in India comparative to other businesses having lowest failure probability
and there is low tax liability apposed on the Bakery product in comparison to other type of
the business and very formal legal liability required for this business. Allahabad is the only
city where cheap land and labour are available. Thats why we have included availability of
resources in our Bakery business.
Being a Management student its always curious to be an entrepreneur. Opening a Bakery
business is also an entrepreneurship. So, all these create interest in me for this project.

TAXATION
As we know India known for the well-developed tax structure with clearly demarcated
authority between Central and State Governments and local bodies. Central Government
levies taxes on income (except tax on agricultural income, which the State Governments can
levy), customs duties, central excise and service tax.
Value Added Tax (VAT) (or Sales tax in States where VAT is not yet in force), Stamp Duty,
State Excise, Land Revenue and tax on professions are levied by the State Governments.
Local bodies are empowered to levy tax on properties, octroi and for utilities like water
supply, drainage etc.
In last 10-15 years, Indian taxation system has undergone tremendous reforms. They tax rates
have been rationalized and tax laws have been simplified resulting in better compliance, ease
of tax payment and better enforcement. The process of rationalization of tax administration is
ongoing in India.
Since April 01, 2005 most of the State Governments in India have replaced sales tax with
VAT. Service tax is levied at the rate of 10% (plus 2% education cess) on certain identified
28 | P a g e

taxable services provided in India by specified service providers. Service tax on taxable
services rendered in India are exempt, if payment for such services is received inconvertible
foreign exchange in India and the same is not repatriated outside India.
The CENVAT Credit Rules allow a service provider to avail and utilize the
credit of additional duty of customs/excise duty for payment of service tax. Credit is also
provided on payment of service tax on input services for the discharge of output service tax
liability If so, use the following method to "back into" they tax. You may choose to include
sales tax in the price of an item, rather than show the tax separately.

LEGAL ASPECTS
Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954
This act is the basic statute that is intended to protect the common consumers against the
supply of adulterated food. This specifies different standards for various food articles. The
standards are in terms of minimum quality levels intended for ensuring safety in the
consumption of these food items and for safeguarding against harmful impurities and
adulteration. The central Committee for Food standards, under the Directorate General of
health services, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, is responsible for the operation of
this act. The provisions of this Act are mandatory and contravention of the rules can lead to
both fines and imprisonment.

Objective
To protect the public from poisonous and harmful foods.
To prevent the sale of substandard foods.
29 | P a g e

 To protect the interests of consumers by eliminating fraudulent practices

Standards on Weights and Measures (Packaged Commodities) Rules, 1977

These rules lay down certain obligatory conditions for all commodities that are packed form,
with respect to declaration on quantities contained. These rules are operated by the
Directorate of Weights and Measures, under the Ministry of Food and Civil supplies

BUREAU OF INDIAN STANDARDS (BIS)

During the pre-independence period, standardization activity was sporadic and confined
mainly to a few government organization. However immediately after independence,
economic development through coordinated utilization of resources was called for and the
government recognized the role for standardization in gearing industry to competitive
efficiency and quality production. The Indian Standard Institution was therefore, set up in
1947 as a registered society under a government of India resolution.
The Indian Standard Institution gave the nation the standard it needed for nationalization,
orderly industrial and commercial growth, quality production and competitive efficiency.
However, in 1986 the government recognized the need for strengthening this National
Standards Body due to fast changing socio-economic scenario and according it a statutory
status. Thus come the Bureau of Indian Standard Act 1986 and on 1 April 1987, newly
formed BIS took over staff assets.
The activities of BIS are twofold, the formulation of Indian standards in the processed food
sector and the implementation of standards through promotion and through voluntary and
third party certification systems. BIS has on record, standards for most of processed foods. In
general, these standards cover raw materials permitted and their quality parameters, hygienic
conditions under which products are manufactured and packaging and labelling requirements.
Manufacturer complying with standards laid down by the BIS can obtain and ISI mark that
can be exhibited on product packages. BIS has identified certain items like food
colours/additives, vanaspati, containers for packing milk powder and condensed milk for
compulsory certification.

Objectives of BIS
1) Harmonious development of standardization, marking and quality certification.
2) To provide new thrust to standardization and quality control.
30 | P a g e

3) To evolve a national strategy for according recognition to standards and integrating them with
growth and development of production and exports.

CONCLUSION
I am sure that our Bakery food product will be going to succeed as it is having a huge market.
The product range also which we are having is unique and it nearly covers all the necessary
qualities which it will make a unique product. There are large number of people in Allahabad
& its nearby city which can be served as our customers. Our bakery will be first of its kind as
there is no branded Bakery up till now in Uttar Pradesh which sells exclusively Cake Pastry,
bread this gives our cakery food product a first movers advantage. In India there are large
numbers of vegetarian people who account for about 40% of the Indian population. This
gives an idea about our target customers. People in India spend lavishly on their eating habit,
only we have to do is to provide best quality Bakery food.
There are many factors that influence the availability of the product. Supply of raw materials
should be within time. Baker and worker should be quick and best so that we can provide our
customers the quality Bakery food with a faster service. Marketing is especially important for
31 | P a g e

a business in retail industry because there is no other person on whom the retailer can rely in
this industry for penetration in the market or diversification.
Marketing is a very crucial activity in every business organization. Every product produced
within an industry has to be marketed otherwise it will remain as unsold stock, which will be
of no value.
