Introduction
Marketing is the process used by an organization to develop an overall product market
strategy. Modern marketing concept lies in the fact that the business should be directedtowards the satisfaction of the consumers. Now the consumer has become the key factor that
determines the success or failure of any organization. A satisfied customer is the biggest asset
of the organization. The success or failure of the product in the market often depends on the
ability of the markets to correctly perceive and predict the dynamic nature of the consumers.
So modern marketing requires a thorough understanding of consumer behavior and buying
motivations.
Consumer behavior reflects the totality of consumer decision with respect to
acquisition, consumption, and disposition of goods, services, time and ideas by decision
-making units. It also include whether, why, when, were, how, how much and how often and
how long consumer will use or dispose of an offering. To understand the consumers are not
early jobs as his behavior is mostly unique and unpredictable. This has made the terms to step
in to the shoes of the consumers and understand from the point of view selection and
purchase of products and services. Marketers need to identify the end-users of the product,
services and frame marketing plans than considering the wholesalers and retailers who
actually are the intermediaries in the process of purchase. Marketers therefore should
consider the consumers and then develop their plans of action. Here lies the essence of
marketing. Consumer is the king and all actions should start with this notion in mind.
Sterling Coconut Oils & Cakes (P) Ltd. Thrissur, popularly known as Thanima is a
private enterprise. Thanima was established with an objective to produce, supply and export
fresh and pure coconut oil. The company strictly follows the quality standards prescribed by
AGMARK and ISO 9001:2000 Certification to take on the challenges of globalization and
international quality standards. Thanima focused on a stable and reasonable return to their
produce by integrating the activities of production, processing and marketing. They converted
coconut, into value added products like copra and coconut oil and marketed it. There is better
satisfaction emphasis is that better the marketing, better the return to the company to
consumers.

Coconut oil is extracted from the kernel or meat of matured coconut harvested from
the coconut palm (Cocos nucifera). It has various applications in food, medicine, and
industry. What make coconut oil different from most of other dietary oils are the basic
building blocks or fatty acids making up the oil.Being one of the healthiest oils on earth, it is
used to treat a wide variety of health problems. Coconut oil improves immune system and
energy level, stabilize blood sugar, improve thyroid function and it tastes great, too.
Statement of the problem
In todays competitive environment companies are realizing that marketing is not only
the voice of the company but also tool with which information feedback can be collected
from the consumers for the marketers. It is important to recognize why and how individuals
make their consumption decisions, Thanima is facing stiff competition from other major
brands such as KPL Shudhi oil, Kera etc. Hence in order to adopt new marketing techniques
for increasing sale it is desirable to study the preference of customers towards coconut oil.
The changing food habits and consumer preference of Keralities have opened a new
opportunity for the marketing of coconut oil in the Kerala state. People may not think much
about branded coconut oil vs. unbranded one as they are not aware of it or they feel that its
of high price. But once they experience the quality of the branded product, they will be
converted. There are many advantages the branded coconut oil have over unbranded one
good quality, better packing, healthier, avoiding refined carbohydrates, increased keeping
quality and consuming whole foods etc.
The household consumers of Kerala are not only health conscious but also price
sensitive. The propensity among the consumers to shift from the consumption of coconut oil
to other edible oils is high when coconut oil price rise above the price of other edible oils.
Being a product of Kerala itself, Sterling Coconut Oil Cakes & Mills (P) Ltd., have the
responsibility to take adequate measures to sustain and promote the household consumption
of coconut oil. The study explored the product related attributes (fragrance, flavor, durability
etc) and market related attributes (price, size, package, availability, etc) of coconut oil in
order to provide adequate insight for taking future decisions by Thanima.

However the marketing of coconut oil in the state still remains less studied. Some
case studies are mentioned here.
Price behavior of major edible oils consumed in the households of Kerala and
promotional strategies of Coconut Development Board. The study found that there are
fluctuations in the prices of coconut oil, palm oil, and sunflower oil. Due to various external
factors like changes in the world production and demand of these oils, changes in the
climatic conditions in the producing countries and internal factors namely import duty
charged by the government, production of oil seeds etc.
Consumers preference towards branded coconut oil. The study has identified that
the consumers give more importance to the quality of coconut oil, which is the main reason
why they prefer branded one. Brand awareness among the consumer were also found fairly
high, but limited to the geographical availability level.
Objectives
To study the customer preference towards Thanima coconut oil
To examine the factors influencing customer preference
Methodology

3. 3.00pm to 6.00pm
4. 6.00pm to 9.00pm
Five customers from each time zone, that is, total 20 customers, were identified from each
super market and collected data. The sample size comprised of 20 respondents each from the
10 supermarkets constituting a total of 200 respondents.
Secondary data
The secondary data was collected from the published sources such as reports, journals,
periodicals, Internet and other Medias.
Analysis of data
The collected data were tabulated and analysed with the help of statistical tools such as
averages, scores, percentages, etc. To analyse the costumer preference towards Thanima
coconut oil and the factors influencing customers preference, questions were graded on a
five point scale. Response choices were given weightage in the following manner.

responses of different statements and to find out for which all attributes the respondents have
favorable opinion and for which all attributes the respondents had unfavorable opinion.
Scope of the study
The findings of the study will help M/s Sterling Coconut Oils, Cakes and Mills (P) Ltd. as
well as its dealers to develop and expand their operational problems and to take appropriate
steps to improve their marketing activities by considering customer tastes and preferences.
This study will also help the organization to improve their profit position. It is relevant to
examine the consumption pattern of coconut oil in a distinctive market to evaluate the present
market activities of Thanima and the essential measures to be taken to penetrate these
markets. Hence the subject of study brings out a key to forward planning for the next
operating period.
The marketers can use the result of the study for improving the brand awareness as
well as brand image among customers. Based on that, they can adopt better marketing
strategies for making themselves competitive. The study of customer preference is important
for its marketing developments. The findings of the study can be used to improve the oil sales
of the company by adopting appropriate marketing measures either by penetrating the
existing market of its branded sales or by exploiting new markets. In addition, helps to
identify the market potential of coconut oil over the other brands.
The customer preference towards branded oils, buying motives, their loyalty towards
a particular brand and switching from one brand to another would be taken into account. The
analysis based on the needs and wants will help to add value to existing products and also to
measure customer satisfaction. Thus marketers can utilize the results of the study by
positioning the attributes according to the consumers as well as customers preference.
Limitations of the study
The following limitations have happened in the study:

1. The time constraint stands as a barrier to cover a much larger sample, hence the
result of the study cannot be generalized
Unavailability of accurate information from the customers
The study included only major supermarkets in Thrissur city and so customers of
minor and medium supermarkets could not be included in the study.
The findings of the study are only indicative and hence cannot be generalized for
the district or state as a whole.

CHAPTER 2
Review of Literature
1. Amit P. Pratab argued that coconut oil is primarily used for edible purpose and also for
hair oil. It is an important source of intermediates like fatty acids. Glycerol and fatty
acids, which are used for the manufacture of wide range of chemicals such as surfactants,
emulsifiers, foam booster etc. These intermediates are used in the formulation of several
finished products like soaps, detergents, and shampoos. Glycerol is used in lot of
cosmetics formulations. Palm kernel oil is also has a similar fatty acid profile. It could be
used for the manufacture of all the coco based chemicals. However, the coco based
products are preferred due to their characteristic odour and mind set of people (Pratab,
2009).
2. Bhattacharya in their study on Putting the customer trust observed that given the rising
demand of customer as well as increasing competition, the need of the hour is to gear
itself positively to the needs of its customers. This would mean vendering the service in
an efficient and effective manner. (Bhattacharya, 1991).
3. According to Balachandran, S in his study on Customer driven services and
management, for the same level of service rendered, some customers may be very
satisfied depending upon perception of experience and expectations. Expectations are
based on what one has heared from others, seen in advertisements, its external appearance
or what one has been made to believe by the sales man. (Balachandran, 1999)
4. Bal Subramanian and Sathyanarayanan explained in their study that the success of any
business lies in maintaining a strong base of loyal costumer. The organization exists for
the customers and the customers are the deciding forces behind the success or failure of a
business organization. (Bal Subramanian and Sathyanarayanan, 2008)
5. Carlo Lovatelli, in his study on Good potential for using vegetable oils as bio fuels
stated that the potential for using vegetable oils such as Palm oil, and soya oil as biofuels
is increasing considerably as the petroleum crude price will continue to rule high.
Petroleum price increase tendency is a strong indication that biodiesel should become
more competitive over the next few years said Lovatelli in his presentation on Vision
2020 - Soya. Various countries such as Malaysia, USA and Brazil are investing heavily
Page 8
-

9/17
in research to gradually make this bio fuel as an alternative to crude oils. (Lovatelli,
2005).
6. Davish Janin argued that, in a short span of 30 years, India has emerged as the worlds
fourth largest oil seeds economy next only to USA, Brazil and China. The note is that the
Indian oil seeds ad edible oil sector performed well last year. The seed processors of soya
been, sunflower, cotton seed etc have had reasonably good margins .The oil processor
also had good processing margins as price went up (Janin, 2000).
7. Devendra Arora and Loveleon Gavr stated that customer relationship management is a
business strategy to acquire and retain the most valuable customer relationship. It is
estimated that the cost of acquiring a new customer is four times the cost of retaining the
existing one. The core concept behind marketing is the role of exchange. Exchange can
take place between buyer and seller and also not limited to money. (Devendra Arora and
Loveleon Gavr 2006)
8. Dipak Kr Ghosh and Arpitha Ghosh suggested that coconut oil is more beneficial to
human body as a dietary fat than the natural or hydrogenated form of unsaturated
vegetable oil. The incidence of coronary heart disease could be better linked with the
consumption of cholesterol rich food of animal origin and the sedentary habits associated
with a tension ridden mechanical society. (Dipak Kr Ghosh,and Arpitha Ghosh, 2008)
9. Elumalai pointed out that Brand strategy is an intimate aspect of product planning. A
marketer has to decide which products to be branded, how to brand them and how to
manage the Brands. In developing a brand the manufacturer has to establish the Brands
quality levels and other attributes that will support the brands together position in the
market place. (Elumalai, 2003)
10. Windisch opined that the last two decades have seen a substantial increase in the use of
aromatic herbs and essential oils as feed additives in animal nutrition. One of the main
reasons for this trend is to substitute antibiotic growth promoters, which have been
completely banned as feed additives in the European Union since 2006 because they are
suspected of contributing substantially to increasing resistance among human pathogens.
Recent investigations have shown significant antimicrobial effects of several essential oils
and essential oil compounds against enter pathogenic organisms in farm animals. Porcine
proliferative enteropathy caused by specific Escherichia coli strains could be controlled
by in-feed application of carvacrol-rich essential oils, and the effect of some essential oil
components against Clostridium perfringens and necrotic enteritis was confirmed in
Page 9

poultry. In ruminants, an improvement of the digestion was observed, resulting in reduced
methanogenesis and nitrogen excretion. In addition, the anti oxidative activity of aromatic
plants and essential oil compounds contributes to the stability and palatability of animal
feed and has, moreover, resulted in an improved shelf-life and quality of animal products,
due to reduced oxidation. The 'growth-promoting effect' of essential oils (feed conversion
rate, daily weight gain, etc.) is not as evident, since a large number of publications are
(commercial) product-driven, lacking data on the starting material. (Windisch, 2010).
11.According to Singh and Singhal a well designed packing, act as a main identifying
feature for quality and quantity and makes the consumers more informative and
choosy. It further informs the consumers as to what quality, quantity and price, the
package is worth off. (Singh and Singhal,1980)
12.Sing Prabhakar stated that one of the basis of consumer perception, a customer would
take the purchase decision and a particular brand was getting priority over other
brands. They also observed that the marketers realized the importance of consumer
perception and attempted to create a unique image for their products, which enable to
achieve an advantage over their competitors products. (Sing Prabhakar ,1989)
13.Thampan has observed that the demand for coconut oil in both the edible and non edible
and user has suffered erosion as a result of technical and economic substitutuions, which
have been taken place over a period of time. He has also suggested measure to b be taken
to regulate and maintain stability in the supplies of coconut oil and to control its prices
within a range, which will be beneficial to both the producers and consumers. This
objective could be achieved by operating a supply management scheme for coconut oil in
Kerala state which would, in the long run, strengthen the existing market demands and
develop new markets for coconut oil to take care of the possible future increase in
production.(Thampan ,1995)
14.Manoj Kumar Ambashta stated that customer orientation comprises two mutely related
factors such as customer satisfaction and the efforts to fulfill those needs up to the levels
of their satisfaction. To put it in the modern technologies,custumor satisfaction in the
present era may be complicated mix of hardware (Technology
,Product,Price,Quandity)and software (Attitude
,responsiveness,deleverness,andcommemorations).(ManojkumarAmbastha,1997)

15.Sanjiv Phansalkar argued that the misconception is that high edible oil prices was the only
technique of demand management. Eliminating imports and creating demand for
conventional minor oils, allowing blending and mass and large-scale availability of pure
oil, conveniently packed were all part of the policy. The earlier reliance on canalization
and the directed use of imported oils had let to massive vested interests particularly in the
vanaspathi industry and the public distribution system. (Sanjiv Phansalkar,1998)
16.Subramanian identified that for the development of coconut industry strengthening of
marketing promotion and market intelligence is necessary. He opined that market
promotion programme intends to create market and capture market information. Market
intelligence services gather information of the market arrivals, wholesale prices for
analysing the market trends for various coconut products inside and out side the country.
(Subramanian ,1998)
17.Maheswarappa.Hp opined in his study that a field experiment was conducted to study
the response of agronomic practices on galangal grown as intercrop in coconut garden
during 1995-1998.Growth,yield characters and yield were superior when mother
rhizome was used as planting material, where as quality characters like oil andoleoresin contents did not differ. Significantly among mother rhizome treatment. Plant
population level of 500000 per hectare (20*10cm) recorded significantly superior
rhizome yield as compared to 333000 population levels. The percent reduction in the
yield due to lower density population was 6-7 percent. Growth, yield characters and
yield were superior with farm yard manure TNPK combination followed by farm yard
manures vermicomposts applied alone. Oil and oleoresin contents were significantly
higher with farmyard manure TNPK, framyardmanure and vermicompost applied
alone compared to composted coir pith application and control. (Maheswarappa,2000)
18.Markose and Thomas categorically stated that in spite of the interference of the
Government machineries for the procurement of copra under the price support scheme.
The market price off copra and coconut oil ruled below the minimum support price
(MSP).Therefore announcement of MSP and procurement of coconut industry in the
country. (Markose and Thomas ,2000)

19.D.PS Varma and Heama Israneny conducted a study to find the consumer attitude
towards advertisement messages. Most of the consumers (52%) used the information
from advertisements to make their purchase decisions. As much as 70 % of the
consumers believed that some advertisements actually mislead them by presenting
false and exaggerated feature of the product. The vast majority of 80 percent of
consumers agreed that the cost of advertisements increased the total cost of products.
Only a slim majority of consumers (58%) have a favorable attitude towards
advertisemenrts.38 % of consumers reported unfavorable attitude towards
advertisements. (D.PS Varma, and Heama Israneny, 2000)
20.Wilson stated that information behavior is a broad term encompassing the ways
individuals articulate their information,needs,seeek,evaluate,select and use
information.Inotherwords information seeking behavior is purposive in nature is a
consequence of a need in to satisfy some goal. In the course of seeking the individuals
may interact with people, manual information system with computer oriented
information system. (Wilson,2000)
1.1 ABOUT THE INDUSTRY
The coconut palm is one of the most valuable plants to man. In Sanskrit the coconut
palm is called kalpa vriksha, which roughly translated means Tree of Life. In India , it
provides livelihood to about 10 million people through various activities from its
cultivation to processing of its products. All the parts of the coconut tree can be put to
useful purposes- the roots, the trunk, the wood, leaves, the blossom and all parts of the nut.
Two major classes of coconut palm are typically recognized on the basis of
stature: tall and dwarf. The ones most commonly planted for commercial purposes are the
tall varieties, which are slow to mature and first flower six to ten years after planting. They
produce medium-to-large size nuts and have a life span of sixty to seventy years. The
dwarf varieties may have originated as a mutation of tall types. The dwarf variety may
grow to a height of twenty-five to thirty feet and begin flower after three years, when they
are only about three feet tall. Their life span is only about thirty years.

COCONUT INDUSTRY IN INDIA
Coconut palms are grown widely in the coastal tracts of the country. The coconut
economy of India is in a convenient status. India accounts for 22.34 per cent of the worlds
coconut production and is one of the major players in the worlds coconut trade. Currently
the crop is grown in 1.91 million hectares with an annual production of nearly 13000
million nuts. Copra processing, coconut oil extraction and coir manufacturing are the
traditional coconut based industries in the country.
The price of the coconut in the country is dependent on the prevailing price of coconut
oil which is characterized by recurring violent fluctuations. The behavior of coconut oil
price is relatively dependent on overall supply of oils and fats in the country. The
fluctuation in the price of the coconut oil simultaneously reflects on the price of coconut.
The volatile price situation often ends in the negligence of the coconut gardens, leading to
attack of pests and diseases and low productivity. Of the range of ways, promoting cost
effective coconut based farming system, product diversification and value addition play a
crucial role in the stabilization of the coconut oil driven domestic market and is essential
for reorienting and engineering the Indian Coconut Industry cost effective and globally
competitive.
The Coconut Development Board has been playing pivotal role in promoting viable
coconut based farming system, on-farm processing and products development. The
production and marketing of value added products have started attracting commercial
interest and the situation brought rejuvenation in the sector. The market promotional
measures undertaken in pursuit of the popularization of health benefits of coconut oil and
tender coconut water have attributed a stimulating effect on the less dependency of
coconut oil driven coconut economy.

1stquality Copra is cut into small pieces. They are dried to desired moisture level using
hot
air. This copra is roasted on a steam jacketed vessel. A bit of steam is sprayed for cooking.
This conditioned copra is crushed on expellers for oil extraction. Crude Oil extracted is
filtered In 4 stages to get Pure Coconut Oil.
Due to heating of copra during drying and roasting and friction during oil extraction,
the oil attains higher temperature i.e. 100C. Coconut Oil consists of mostly (92%))
saturated fatty acids that are stable even at high temperature. So they dont change forms
during processing. Cold Press is the traditional method of oil extraction. Roasting is an
improved form of copra processing. The following are the benefits of Roasted Coconut Oil
1. Better taste and aroma
2. Longer shelf life due to moisture control
3. Copra is sterilized by heating and hence no chance of contamination due to bacteria,
Fungus and viruses.
