Intelligent Marketing

EXPANSION TO FOREIGN

SHORES GCMMF had signed an agreement with Wal-Mart to stock its

shelves with products under its Amul brand name. Amulprocessed cheese, pure ghee, Shrikhand, Nutramul, Amul'sMithaee Gulab Jamuns are few of the products marketed in the US markets.

50 per cent of Americans being medically obese, and if Amul is really looking to capture the hearts of the second- and third-generation Indians, offering low-fat versions of its brands, would make a lot of commercial sense.

Hence targeting the large Indian community in the US markets with its niche products like mithai, packaged ready to eat foods market it can definitely expand its market to a large extent.

Moving consumers from loose milk to

packaged milk and gradually move them up the

value chain (tetra pack to beverages)

Being exposed to a brand, it is natural for a

customer to try more products

Defense Strategy

Wide range of product categories caters to consumers across all market segments. For example, Amul Kool is targeted at children, while teenagers prefer Kool Café, as it has a cool imagery associated with it.

Segmentation

Changing retail environment

Striking out on its own, with Amul Outlets or parlours to deliver consumers total brand experience

Launched in 2002, there are now over 4700 Amul parlours across the country, which contributed 3% to the brand’s total turnover in year 2009.

Targeting

Given this wide product portfolio, Amul’s approach is to promote its brands in a rotational cycle of two to three years.

After ice-creams were launched in 1996, the category was re-visited in 1999, in order to improve availability of the product and make it affordable.

The focus shifted to cheese in 2001, Amul Masti Chaas in 2004-05 (sales of Masti dahi grew by 25%), Nutramul and Kool Kafe in 2006 and this year the focus is on Amul Koko — cold chocolate drink

Amul has risen from Indian soil and it remains Indian in every sense.

There is ample scope in the low priced segment as also in other categories.

There are a significant number of retailers who are currently stocking more than two brands.

Amul has the opportunity to capture the more evolved young adults and children who are open to new products provided they meet their expectations.
