DABURFast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG)
These products that are sold quickly at relatively low cost . Examples include non-durable goods such as soft drinks, toiletries, grocery items etc. Though the absolute profit made on FMCG products is relatively small, they generally sell in large quantities, so the cumulative profit on such products can be large.
Scope
The term FMCG refers to those retail goods that are generally replaced or fully used up over a short period of days, weeks, or months, and within one year. This contrasts with durable goods or major appliances such as kitchen appliances, which are generally replaced over a period of several years.
FMCGs have a short shelf life, either as a result of high consumer demand or because the product deteriorates rapidly. Some FMCGs – such as meat, fruits and vegetables, dairy products and baked goods – are highly perishable. Other goods such as alcohol, toiletries, pre-packaged foods, soft drinks and cleaning products have high turnover rates.
The following are the typical characteristics of FMCGs:
From the consumers' perspective: o Frequent purchaseo Low involvement (little or no effort to choose the item )o Low price
From the marketers angle: o High volumeso Low marginso Extensive distribution networkso High stock turnover
HISTORY OF DABUR:
Dabur was incorporated in 1884 in a small Calcutta
pharmacy where Dr. S. K. Burman launched his mission of making healthcare
products. With the growing popularity of Dabur products, in 1986
Dr.S.K.Burman set up Dabur’s first manufacturing plant for mass production and
in the early 1900s Dabur ventured into the business of nature based ayurvedic
medicines for which standardized drugs were not available in the market. In
1936 Dabur sets up Dabur India Limited and a new manufacturing plant is set up
in Faridabadon the outskirts of DeLhI . In 1979 one of the largest and best
equipped production facility was started near Sahibabad along with the
formation of Dabur Research Foundation (DRF) signaling the launch of research
operation in the pioneering area of health care. In 1986 Dabur became a public
limited company and raised its first public issue in 1994 with the company share
issued at a high premium and oversubscribed twenty one times. For better
operation and management 3separate divisions were created in 1996 according
to the product mix, namely Health care products division, Family production
division and Dabur ayurvedic specialties limited. In 1997Dabur enters full scale
in the nascent processed foods market with the creation of the food division.
Project STARS (Strive To Achieve Record Success is initiated to give a jump start
to the company and accelerate its growth performance) and in 2000 Dabur
established its market leadership status with a turnover of Rs 1000 Crores. In
2005, Dabur acquired Balsara. Dabur crossed $ 2 billion market cap in 2006.
Dabur foods merged with Dabur India in 2007.From a small beginning and
upholding the values of its founder, Dabur entered the august league of large
corporate business. Dabur has also ventured into the specialized health care
area of cancer treatment with its oncology formulation plant at Baddi in
Himachal Pradesh and extended its global partnerships by entering into joint
ventures with Osem of Israel for food andBongrain of France for cheese and
other dairy products.Dabur India Limited today is the third largest FMCG
Company in India after a takeover of Balsara India Limited and with interests in
Health care, Personal care and Food products.Powerful brands like Dabur Amla,
Dabur Chyawanprash, Vatika, Hajmola and Real are the major contributors to
Dabur’s turnover of Rs.2396 crore.
COMPANY’S PROFILE
Dabur India Limited is India’s fourth largest FMCG company. The first Dabur plant was set up in 1896 and research laboratories established in 1919. Dabur became a public limited company in 1986. In 1998, the Burman family, the original promoters, handed over the day-to-day running of the company to professionals. With effect from 1 April 2005, Balsara Home Products became a subsidiary of Dabur. Apart from Balsara, Dabur has five other subsidiaries — Dabur Foods, Dabur Nepal, Dabur Egypt, Dabur Oncology and Dabur Pharma.
Dabur has been marketing its products in more than 50 countries all over the world. The company has offices and representatives in Europe, America and Africa. Manufacturing facilities are spread across three overseas locations.
Dabur India Limited holds its speciality in AYURVEDA. Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine based on natural and holistic living, derives from two Sanskrit words -Ayu or life, and Veda or knowledge. This Science of Life analyses the human body through a combination of the body, mind and spirit.
Originating nearly 5,000 years ago, Ayurvedic texts were researched by Dabur in its quest for natural remedies. Today, its application in modern life has been renewed through the scientific research and validation undertaken at Dabur.
Other than “ ayurvedic specialities “ Dabur’s product range also encompasses health care, hair care, oral care, baby care, home care, food segments and digestive products . Some of the well-known brands include Amla Chyawanprash, Hajmola, Lal Dantmanjan, Nature Care and Pudin Hara.
Part of the company’s success came from its highly active sales network. A significant proportion of Indian population, which would be top one billion before the drawn of the 21st century, still lived in rural regions and in extreme poverty. For much of this population, personal care products remained luxury items. Yet the company recognized the importance of building its brand in this region and as such the company developed a vast sales network and much of this network was based on an army of independent, direct sales agents, who hawked the company’s products in more than 150000 villages.
In 2002 the company prepared to enter a new management era and appointed Mr. Sunil Duggal as the C.E.O of the company. He joined in 1995 as General Manager (Sales & Marketing), and since then, with his dynamic spirit and leadership abilities he has led the company to achieve new heights and becamer the CEO of the Company, and with his valuable experience steering the company ahead in its growth plans.
Dabur India Limited has marked its presence with some very significant achievements and today commands a market leadership status. Their story of success is based on dedication to nature, corporate and process hygiene,
dynamic leadership and commitment to their partners and stakeholders. The results of the policies and initiatives speak for themselves.

MARKETING:
CONCEPT OF MARKETING ‘Market in common language is a place where business is conducted or in other words where goods and services are exchanged. The term market is used in variety of contexts. It can be a wholesale market & Retail market. The managerial awareness and desire reflected in the consumer orientation for an all-out commitment to the market consideration and marketing operations to the consumer needs has given birth to new operational notion called the ‘Marketing concept’.
‘Marketing’ as the word suggests simply means identifying needs of the customers or in others words ‘to know about the pulse of each & every customer’. ‘A social process by which individuals and groups obtain what they need and want through creating, offering and freely exchanging products & services of value with others.’
The following are important elements for a marketing exchange to take place:-
a. Presence of at least two parties- Buyer and Seller.
b. Both parties must have something viewed valuable by each other.
c. Both parties are free to accept or reject the offer.
d. Each party feels desirable to deal with each other.
e. Each party is capable of communication and delivery.
Marketing involves different functions- marketing research, product planning, buying and assembling, packaging, storage, warehousing, Transportation, promotion & selling. These functions helps the firm to realize its profit goal by actualizing potential exchanges with the customers.
MARKETING MIX Marketing mix refers to the ingredients or the tools or the variables which the marketeer mixes in order to interact with a market. It is a set of marketing tools that the firm uses to pursue its marketing objectives in the target market. Marketing mix includes the following activities -product planning, pricing, branding, packaging, channels of distribution, displays, physical handling, advertising etc.
All the activities listed above create what a marketeer offers to the market. It is through these that market is created and managed. The above list of marketing mix elements was reclassified by McCarthy into four categories popularly known as four P’s of marketing -: product, price, place and promotion.

CHANNELS OF DISTRIBUTION Channels of distribution refers to the path taken by the goods in their movement to the customers. For instance, the toothpaste we use is manufactured in the factory of a company Dabur. But before it reaches us it passes through the hands of many middlemen who help it come to you in right time, at right place and in right quantity.
Dabur’s distribution network is recognised as one of its key strengths. Its focus is not only to enable easy access to our brands, but also to touch consumers with a three-way convergence - of product availability, brand communication, and higher levels of brand experience.
A Diagram explaining the channels of Distribution is given below

Supply Chain Management Supply chain management starts before physical distribution: it involves procuring the right inputs (raw materials, components and capital equipment), converting them into finished products and dispatching them to the final destinations. The supply chain perspective can help identify superior suppliers and distributors and help them improve productivity, which ultimately brings down the company’s costs.
A broader view sees a company at the center of a value network that includes its suppliers, its immediate customers and their end customers. The value network includes valued relations with others such as university researchers, government approval agencies and so on.
MANUFACTURING PLANT Dabur Foods has Number of products in its product line but its main area of interest or the product on which they concentrate the most is Real Juice & Coolers.
Dabur has its manufacturing plant at Nepal and at Jaipur where juice is manufactured and tested.

production unit in charge Constant updates on the procurement of materials and transport details Production details and ingredient content information from the different
personnel and coordinating this activity
PACKAGING Approval and coordination of the supply of packaging material to the
production unit
CLEARING AND FORWARDING AGENTA (C&FA) From manufacturing plant the stock is transported or supplied to clearing
and forwarding agents. Clearing and Forwarding Agents is a third party and Dabur gives contract
to them, so company has nothing to do in building the relationship with them.
Here C&FA keep or stock the goods with them. They charge Dabur for stocking the good and even Dabur don’t mind
doing so as it is a measure of cost cutting as well as there is no need for gowdowns and maintenance.
STOCKIEST OR DISTRIBUTORS Stockiest store the products in their godowns, C&FA supplies the goods to
them as per their order.
Stockiest has some sales men working under him, they are known as
stockiest sales man. Their work is to place the products in the market and
take order from retailers and then supply goods to them.
Sales man either take ready stock with them or they first take orders and
then supply goods later on.
There is a beat which is a schedule route of sales man, means sales man
has to daily cover the route as mention in the beat.
Merchandising, making products visible, pasting posters, putting banners,
and seeing that goods are properly placed in the retail outlets is also the
duty of stockiest sales man.
Companies’ sales officer keeps a check on the stockiest and monthly
report is also prepared which is further analyzed by ASM & ZSM.
RETAILERS Retailers are backbone of the company as they are the one who can take
the product on new heights or can bring it down to toes.
Stockiest supplies goods to retailers and tries Persuading retailers to give
the brand special displays (using merchandising tools) to get affective
brand presence, and arranging it in more noticeable manner.
Margin of retailers is always higher than stockiest.
Retailers are the ones who have direct contact with the customers.
Dabur Foods has a distribution network that covers 175 towns and 75
thousand retail outlets making its product available to the consumers
across the country at ease.
PROMOTION Once the product has been manufactured, priced rightly and is distributed, the next task of the marketer is to inform potential customer about the product and persuade them to buy the same. The promotion element of marketing mix is concerned with activities that are undertaken to communicate with both customers and participants in the channel of distribution such that
sales goals are realized. There are different promotional activities like-: Advertising, Sales promotion, trade promotion, personal selling etc. but one of the most convenient and effective one that most of the industries uses is the Advertising and Sales Promotion.
Advertising Advertising is a form of communication that typically attempts to persuade potential customers to purchase or to consume more of a particular brand of product or service. Many advertisements are designed to generate increased consumption of those products and services through the creation and reinforcement of "brand image" and "brand loyalty". For these purposes, advertisements sometimes embed their persuasive message with factual information. Every major medium is used to deliver these messages, including television, radio, cinema, magazines, newspapers, video games, the Internet and billboards. Advertising is often placed by an advertising agency on behalf of a company or other organization.
Dabur has created the huge brand image and a vast product following by associating mega-names like Amitabh Bachchan, Rani Mukhurjee, Vivek Oberoi, Mandira Bedi etc. Dabur invested Rs. 150 crore just on the advertising of Real “Fruit Juice” and “Real Active”. So far the company has been successful in this mission as the people now know the brand and ask for its products by name.
Sales promotion “An activity designed to boost the sales of a product or service. It may
include an advertising campaign, increased PR activity, a free-sample campaign,
offering free gifts or trading stamps, arranging demonstrations or exhibitions,
setting up competitions with attractive prizes, temporary price reductions, door-
to-door calling, telemarketing, personal letters on other methods”.
In marketing, sales promotion is one of the four aspects of promotion. (The other
three parts of the promotional mix are advertising, personal selling, and
publicity/public relations.) Sales promotions are non-personal promotional
efforts that are designed to have an immediate impact on sales.
Sales promotion involves short-term incentives to encourage buyers to purchase
a product. It's aim is to encourage immediate purchase of a product. If used too
often however, sales promotion can create a situation where consumers will not
buy unless there is a bonus offer. This will result in loss of profit for the
company.
More than any other element of the promotional mix, sales promotion is about
“action”. It is about stimulating customers to buy a product. It is not designed to
be informative – a role which advertising is much better suited to.
Sales promotion can be directed at:-• The ultimate consumer (a “pull strategy” encouraging purchase)
• The distribution channel (a “push strategy” encouraging the channels to stock
the product). This is usually known as “selling into the trade”
