Suggestions

• The company should mainly concentrate on the already captured
market, and also try to increase the market share of maggi.
• The return of damaged goods by retailers is up to the three months
from the expiry date, it must be extended to 5 months, so that poor shop keepers doesn’t have to bear any loss.
Cont…
• The basic problem that a brand faced is an Indian Psyche, Indian palate is not too adventurous in terms of trying new taste, before launching a new variant of maggi, and they must conduct test marketing.
• Maggi should concentrate on youth crowd.
• For motivating retailers, company must give prizes for annually top
10 sellers.
• And the highest seller should be awarded by some attractive gifts
like foreign trips and holiday package.
Cont…
• The magical masala of ‘Maggi’ and magic masala of ‘Yippe’ have
almost same taste but it differs in weight and price.
The magic masala yippe have RS 5 & Rs10 Sku’s while magical
masala of maggi have only one sku of Rs 15. If the company wants
to give the competition, they must have to make a Sku of magical
masala of Rs5 & Rs10.
