Conclusion
The demand for Cadbury products is quite high. There is no scarcity
of Cadbury products in the market. The consumers are aware of the
various advertisement campaign undertaken by the company in
promoting their products .Cadbury can be considered as the market
leader in the confectionery market. However it should concentrateon constant innovation to occupy a different position in the
consumers mind.
LIMITATIONS
It is limited to only the urban area (KIIT Square and Big bazar). So therewas no information about demand in rural area.
As the sample size was limited to 40 so the exact demand of all theresidents could not be found.
Many people were not ready to give their valuable time to fill up thequestionnaire.

RECOMMENDATION1. The company should focus on introducing new products at lower price in
the rural areas.
2. Customers gather information from their family member, friends,neighbor rather than promotional activity. So company has to look on
interactive marketing.
3. Due to strong brand equity the company can plan to enter into differentmarket segment such as biscuit segment such as Oreo.
4. It should also enter into the chewing gum segment and compete withleading products such as center fresh, happy dent etc.
5. The company should improve its distribution system in rural area
