INTRODUCTION TO THE TOPIC

Ice creams are a genuine delicacy to one and all. It would indeed be difficult to
trace a sole who actually doesnt like ice creams. Ice creams are an all time
favourite for people of all ages. How often do we ever give it a thought as to know
about ice creams?
Ice cream market in India-The total market in the ice cream industry is Rs 2000
crores of which the branded ice cream market holds a scoop of Rs 400 crore. The
ice cream market in India is currently estimated to be 210-mn liter valued at Rs 45
crore (MRP Rs 9 bn). The market growth during the late 80s and in the early 90s
was very low at around 2-3 % p.a. since the last 2 years; the market has been
witnessing a much faster growth at around 10-12% p.a. The growth rate could have
been higher but for poor infrastructure high excise duty / sales tax etc.
In the beginning HLL entered the market through frozen dessert route. Frozen
desserts were technically not reserved for the small scale. There are a number of
brand of ice creams available in the country. Even region has its own special brand
of ice creams.
There lies immense opportunity in the East removal of licensing, restrictions and
investment by new players in capacity and market expansion, is expected to lead to
rapid demand growth in the sector. A 10-20% p.a. volume growth can be sustained

for a very long period due to the fact that the current base of consumption is very
small.
Ice cream has an ancient history-As for the origins of ice-cream, an equal amount
of folklore abounds. In the fourth century B.C., the Roman Emperor Nero
apparently ordered ice to be brought from the mountains and combined with fruit
toppings. Although legend has it that Marco Polo brought back to Europe a
Chinese method for creating an ice and milk concoction, recent scholarship
indicates that if he did bring back such a recipe, it was probably not from China but
from elsewhere along his route. Over time, recipes for ices, sherbets, and milk ices
evolved and were served in the fashionable Italian and French royal courts.
The use of ice mixed with salt to lower and control the temperature of the mix of
ingredients proved a major breakthrough in the creation of ice cream as we know
it. The invention of the wooden bucket freezer with rotary paddle facilitated its
manufacture at home, making ice-cream a staple of kitchens across the land.
A Baltimore company first produced and marketed wholesale ice-cream in 1851.
The treat became both distributable and profitable with the introduction of
mechanical refrigeration. The ice-cream shop or soda fountain has since become an
icon of American culture.

Ice creams is a dairy product comprising of 60% dairy ingredients like Creams,
Butter, Milk and other ingredients such as Sugar, Water, Colors, Flavours,
Stabilizer and emulsifiers. In case of Frozen Desserts the dairy fat is replaced by
vegetable fat such as Palm oil, Coconut oil.
Prevention of Food Adulteration Act requires a min. 10% fat and 40% of other
solid matter in ice creams. The key non- fat solid matter being skimmed milk
powder and sugar.
Ice Creams have good demand all around the globe. It has been seen that U.S.A
accounts for 22 litres per annum consumption per person while Australia ranks
second with an 18 litres figure. India however, shows a figure of only 0.1 liter.
There indeed lies great potential in the Indian market for ice creams.
The ice cream industry here shows a Rs. 2200 Crores total market of which
branded ice creams own only Rs. 500 Crores. Today the country is practically
flooded with a very wide range of ice cream brands. Each region has its own
special brand to harp on.
The major international players in the Bareilly market are Blue Bunny, Baskin
Robbins and Move pick whereas the domestic players include Mother Dairy, Amul,
Kwality Walls, Cream Bell and Vadilal.

Indian ice cream industry is worth $700 million of which only less than half ($300350 million) is accounted by organized players like Cream Bell, Amul Kwality
Walls and Mother Dairy.
Among the domestic players Kwality Walls Amul & Mother dairy are the only
brands that can pose maximum competition to Vadilal ice creams. However, the
company has accepted this competition in good spirit and has also made adequate
moves in this regard.
Purpose: Since there is not enough space in normal refrigerator, the retailers need
to keep freezer to stock ice cream .The freezer maintain -18 to -22 degree C. Our
task necessarily involves convincing the retailer to create space for VADILAL ice
cream in his shop , also understand the working of the distributor & the various
issues he handle like retailer grievances ,replacement strategies cost involved & the
other issues he faces.

INTRODUCTION TO THE ORGANIZATION

Vadilal group has its humble beginning, more than 95 years ago, when its
founders started manufacturing Ice-cream with a hand cranked machine.
Today it is a diversified Business Group with major interests in Ice-creams, Food

VADILAL ICECREAM
Vadilal, the name conjures up images of ice cream laden bowls and a plethora of
new flavours. Starting from one man show with a hand cranked machine in 1926 as
a small retail outlet, the ice cream division now has a production capacity of 1

IMPORTANCE OF THE STUDY

Selection of ingredients
Mix preparation
Homogenizing and pasteurizing
Flavours and colors
Cooling
Freezing and incorporation of air
Packing- packaging- hardening- storage (20 degree Celsius )
To ensure QUALITY product temperature should never rises above 18 degree.
This can de achieved by having air temperatures in cold rooms 4-5 degrees and in
vehicles 7 degree colder than 18 because of air fluctuations during door opening
and closing and defrost cycles.
Though still limited mostly to urban areas during the summer, the ice cream market
is already showing signs of diversification:

With a 30-percent market share, vanilla is still the preferred flavor, but
strawberry, chocolate and butterscotch are available.

Manufacturers are catering to the low-end market with cheaper sherbets.

Importers catering to high-end consumers are selling U.S. ice cream to

hotels, supermarkets and up-scale shopping outlets.

Distribution Limited by Storage- Ice cream distribution in India usually involves a

distributor, wholesaler and retailer. Because of chinks in the cold storage chain,
most brands have small regional operations with production facilities located near
major markets.
National brands may opt for cold-storage facilities in major consumption centres or
acquire smaller production facilities close to the retail outlets.
Retailers, numbering around 70,000, operate through fixed outlets or mobile
pushcarts, tricycles or three-wheelers.
The domestic dairy cooperative sector entered the market in late 1996, launching a
price war that caused many small and medium-sized businesses to leave the market
or merge with large-scale producers. These larger companies expanded their
distribution networks and broadened offerings.
Recently, multinational brands, such as Wells' Blue Bunny entered the market.
Baskin-Robbins and Kwality Walls established joint venture relationships with
Indian companies.
Though the 51-percent tariff on imports limits demand, there are plenty of
consumers with a hankering for premium brands willing to pay the difference.

The frozen treats usually are packaged and sold three ways:

Cups holding 100 to 150 ml.

Bars, sticks and cones

Family packs of 1 liter in wax- coated paper or plastic cartons

To call a product "ice cream," two basic requirements must be met: The treat must
be at least 10-percent milk fat and use sugar as the sweetener. Though there is a
potential market for fat-free and sugar-free ice creams, the countrys food laws
dont permit them yet.

A frequently asked question is How many people should I sample? It is an

extremely good question, although unfortunately there is no single answer! In
general, the larger the sample size, the more closely your sample data will match
that from the population. However in practice, you need to work out how many
responses will give you sufficient precision at an affordable cost.
Calculation of an appropriate sample size depends upon a number of factors unique
to each survey and it is down to you to make the decision.
Here we used 100 respondents as a sample size. With help of questionnaire.

For the successful completion of the project I was required to understand and study
Ice Creams as a product and at the same time lay greater emphasis on the ice
creams markets in bareilly
I visited all major markets and shopping areas and went to all those outlets, which
prospectively seemed to qualify as a good ice cream outlet.
To understand the market situation I read through numerous news articles, journals,
company reports and also surfed the Internet which gave me a good insight into
Vadilal ice creams and its existing market scenario.
I have conducted survey one for the retailers and other for the customers.. A
sample size of 100 was taken into consideration. This helped me gauge s potential

for Vadilal ice creams and also revealed interesting viewpoints with regard to
various ice cream brand preferences, flavour preferences, retailer requirements.
After having worked in the market talking to retailers and consumers I was able
to see through the ice cream market in its true colors. A complete field work over a
period of 8 weeks gave us a good exposure to the actual conditions prevailing in
the ice cream market. At the same time it has also given us the genuine capacity to
analyze Vadilal ice creams present shape and future potential.

Frozen dessert

In frozen desserts milk fat is replaced with vegetable oil, hence they are unable to
give the smooth taste and flavour which only an ice cream can give.
The base of the frozen dessert can be any sort of vegetable oil which is quite
inexpensive.

RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

Only few people are there who are completely aware about the Vadilal
ice cream, so here a complete and effective scheme for awareness for
two - three season is required.

Dealers have a problem with the service, they said that the order is
not reach at the time & this is the major problem with the dealer, so
company should make a strong chain of supply, if needed then
increase the number of distributorship

In the peak season there is a scarcity of some ice-cream flavours. So,

at least the company will available all the flavours in the peak season.
Regular visit of the executive in the market, and aware the Pros &
Cons of the dealer & also pay attention on the distributor.
If the company will make a sugar free ice cream for target customer. I
thought its a great move in the ice-cream sector
If the company thinks about launching of these products, they must be
pre-plan for advertisement on the television for the awareness of the
product is the consumer
