The goal was to spread joy and cheer to children and adults alike, all over the country with its sweets and candies. Although, the company knew that it wouldn’t be an easy task, they decided to take the brave step. A small factory was set up in the suburbs of Mumbai to manufacture confectionery products. A decade later this factory was upgraded to manufacture biscuits as well. Since then, the Parle name has spread in all directions and has won international fame. Parle has been sweetening the lives of people all over India and abroad. Apart from the factories in Mumbai and Bangalore, Parle also has factories in Bahadurgarh, Haryana and Neemrana, Rajasthan.

Parle-G or Parle Glucose biscuits, manufactured by Parle Products Pvt Ltd, are one of the most popular biscuits in India. Parle-G is one of the oldest brand names as well as the largest selling brand of biscuits in India. For decades, the product was instantly recognized by its iconic white and yellow wax paper wrapper with the depiction of a young girl on the front. Counterfeit companies have attempted to recreate and sell lower quality products of similar names with virtually identical package design. The company's slogan is G means Genius. The name, "Parle-G", is derived from the name of the suburban rail station, Vile Parle which in turn is based on village Parle in olden days (there is also area called Irle nearby where the Parle Agro production factory is based).

...Journey of Parle-G started in 1939, when Parle Product Pvt. Ltd launched its first biscuit brand in India. A cream-coloured, yellow-stripped, wax-paper wrapper with a photo of a cute young girl, containing 10-12 biscuit with the company's logo on it and you would know these are Parle-G biscuits. Over the years, many varieties of biscuit came and went but nothing much has changed with this biscuit, except for packs. Even after 75 years of its birth, it is still known for its superior quality and taste across the length and depth of the country. Parle-G, being the world’s largest selling biscuit brand, accounts for more than half of the total revenue of the company (Business Standard, 2011). Although in past few years, there has been a consistent decline in its sales growth, it still maintains the superior position in the biscuit market Biscuit Industry overview Indian biscuit industry:- The biscuit market in India is estimated to be Rs 10,000 crore (US$ 1.84 billion) and the industry is also gearing up to aggressively tap the medium and premium segment within the country over the next couple of years. While the growth rate has been stagnating during last 4 years, it picked up momentum during the 2008-09 mainly on account of exemption from Central Excise Duty on biscuits with MRP up to Rs.100/per kg, as per Union Budget for 2007-08.However growth further declined from 2009-10 to 2011-12 and the first half of 2012-13.

...Parle G Becoming The Largest Selling Biscuit Brand Marketing Essay FOR a change, the Mumbai-based makers of the largest selling brand of glucose biscuits, Parle Products, want to be in the limelight. The reason being that for the first time, the low-profile company wants to fulfil its consumers dreams through its Parle-G My Dream Come True contest - its biggest promotion till date. Setting aside a budget of almost Rs 2.5 crore for this contest alone, more than enforcing sales, the Parle-G brand is reinforcing its leadership position in the biscuit market while giving contestants a chance to fulfil their dreams. States Pravin Kulkarni, Marketing Manager, Parle Products Pvt. Ltd, "We want to give children a platform to fulfil their dreams. After all, dreaming is synonymous with the brand values of Parle-G, which brings about all-round development to achieve their dreams." The promotion is the largest of its kind and gives contestants the opportunity to win whatever they dream of in contrast to the traditional promos where prizes are fixed. This contest has only first prizes and these prizes are defined as per the child's dream. Launched in 1939, the more than 50-year-old brand of Parle-G is India's first glucose biscuit to be introduced from the House of Parle. With a dominant volume share in the glucose biscuit market, Parle-G is pegged as the largest-selling biscuit brand in the world, making up almost 80 per cent of Parle Products' turnover of Rs 1,300 crore. The...

...Parle-G, the price warrior It's a brand that has held its price line at Rs 4 for 25 years now -- the price was last raised in 1994 by 25 paise. So, it's not for nothing that Parle-G is the world's largest-selling biscuit by volumes. [pic] Not that the company didn't try to raise prices to offset the overall hike in costs. Three years ago it did so, but quickly rolled it back after volumes fell sharply and consumers wrote to lodge their protest. "We want to cater to the masses and have consciously tried not to increase the price. Parle-G is available for Rs 50 a kg. There are very few food items that are available for Rs 50-60 a kg," says Pravin Kulkarni, general manager (marketing), Parle Products. Parle is, of course, not doing it for charity. Soaring input prices meant it opted for reducing the weight of the biscuit than increasing the price -- first from 100 gm to 92.5 gm in January 2008, and then to 88 gm in January this year -- in line with other biscuit-makers and FMCG players. Regular customers would have noticed the number of biscuits in a pack come down from 16 to 15 even as each biscuit became lighter, but they seemed to understand the cost pressures on the firm. The gamble paid off: Parle was able to sustain its volumes. Strict cost control at every point in its supply chain also helped -- Parle entered into forward contracts with suppliers, outsourced production, increased the number of manufacturing locations to 60 and consolidated buying. Raw material costs...

...Case Study PARLE—G Group 5 A flagship brand should be generating a margin of 15 to 20 per cent of revenue. A margin of less than 10 per cent is unacceptable for Parle-G. I have to bite the bullet at some time on pricing. The concerns are several. Mr. Kulkarnii wants to balance the rise in raw material prices by changing pricing of product Parle-G. There are 2 ways, either to increase rate per package or reduce costs. The 100-g packet is Parle’s best-selling SKU, contributing to 50 per cent of brand revenues every year. Company tried to balance the raw material price increase by increasing cost of this SKU, however this reduced the sales of this SKU owing to its VFM image. Eventually company rolled back its price increment. It reduced its costs by changing packaging and reducing quantity per SKU. Such changes are not going to serve company in long-run as consumers would eventually shift to competitors, given that ITC and Britannia have deep pockets. * Should I make tactical moves like launching new SKUs and new price points? Parle should avoid modifying 100 gm SKU. Instead, company should start promoting larger SKUs aggressively. Market for such 1000 gm and 500gm is more organized compared to 100gm market. These are institutional buyers such as canteens and hotels. Parle could promote its larger SKUs as monthly nutritional package, which will compel urban buyers to buy larger SKUs for monthly consumption. Larger SKUs would provide company better savings, as cost of...

...Relaunch of Frooti-The 'Digen Verma' Campaign “Our aim was to create hype around the product, so we introduced a mysterious character called ‘Digen Verma.’ As our target audience is the youth segment, we wanted to showcase their rebellious spirit through Digen Verma.” -Ram Sehgal, MD, Everest Integrated Communications. ''Frooti has always been positioned as a drink for kids. Now, we want to position it as a drink for the youth, especially, the college-going teenagers. We therefore went in for a real life, down-to-earth person, who, like any college student likes to bunk classes, is a good sportsman and is a popular figure in the college, with whom the teenagers can actually associate themselves.'' -Alka Bhonsle, Management Consultant, Parle Agrochemicals. WHO IS DIGEN VERMA? There was no getting away from him. A poster at a bus stop in Chennai asked, “Will Digen Verma be in the next bus?” Or, when watching a movie; there was bound to be an interruption all of a sudden with a handwritten message saying, ‘Digen, your car is being towed’. And, outside in the car park, almost all the cars had stickers on them saying, ‘Digen Verma was here.’ In many commercial places in metros and even far off places like Simla, there were footmarks accompanied by the mysterious words ‘Digen Verma was here’ pasted. There were rumours galore about ‘Digen Verma’ and his identity. Some thought it was a campaign for the launch of some new fashion label, while others thought Digen Verma he was a...

...Compare and contrast essay – Frank Earley and Albert Smith In the Frank Earley letter, it is clearly shown to the audience that the English soldiers are fighting with the last sense of hope they have as they have been fighting the war a lot longer compared to the Americans, which is shown in the Albert Smith letter. The audience have a real sense of empathy as Frank Earley admits to ‘how close death is to us’ which shows a feeling of near defeat in the morale of the soldiers. However, in the Albert Smith letter, the feeling of defeat and lowness of morale is non-existent as Albert writes to his little brother ‘ready to come home after the war but not before’ highlighting to the audience that he isn’t exhausted by the war yet and wants to continue fighting, showing that the Americans haven’t been in the war long and so haven’t experienced what the English have. Following on from this, the use of semantic field in the Albert Smith letter denotes a feeling of how bad the conditions were for the Americans, ‘wettest’ ‘muddiest’ ‘raining’ ‘wire entanglements’ ‘up to my waist in mud’. This evokes a feeling of empathy from the audience as we usually complain about the weather and these men dealt with it night and day whilst fighting for us and their own lives. Furthermore, in the Albert Smith letter, the war is described as ‘slaughter’ which is a very optimistic view to take compared to the Frank Earley letter where he describes his friend being killed ‘in a moment’ and that it was...
