4. PROJECT INTRODUCTION

Consumers are buying snacks in greater variety and quantity than ever, and extrusion technology produces almost all of them. Snacks are one of the fastest-growing segments of the food industry, and for years, extrusion has been a mainstay of producing new and creative products. Extrusion cooking produces a wide range of finished products from inexpensive raw materials with minimum processing time.

A snack food (commonly called a snack) is seen in Western culture as a type of food not meant to be eaten as a main meal of the day – breakfast, , or dinner – but one rather that is intended to assuage a person's hunger between these meals, providing a brief supply of energy for the body. The term may also refer to a food item consumed between meals purely for the enjoyment of its taste.

Traditionally snacks were prepared from ingredients commonly available in the home, often leftovers, sandwiches made from cold cuts, nuts, fruit, and the like

Traditionally snacks were prepared from ingredients commonly available in the home, often leftovers, sandwiches made from cold cuts, nuts, fruit, and the like. The Dagwood sandwich was originally the humorous result of a cartoon character's desire for large snacks.

With the multiplication of convenience stores, packaged snack foods are now a significant business. Snack foods are typically designed to be portable, quick and satisfying. Processed snack foods are designed to be less perishable, more durable, and/or more appealing than prepared foods. They often contain substantial amounts of sweeteners, preservatives, and appealing ingredients such as chocolate, peanuts, and specially designed flavors (such as flavored potato chips). A snack eaten shortly before going to bed or during the night may be called a midnight snack.

4.1. Executive summery

Potato chips currently represent one of the world’s most popular snack foods. From its accidental birth in 1853, the potato chips market has evolved with time and currently represents a multi-billion dollar market. Owing to their easy affordability and cheaper price even for the premium products, potato chips are popular among all age groups. Currently, the growing young population (below 15 years) represents a key segment for the potato chips market. Major factors driving the global demand of potato chips are growing urbanisation, rise in disposable incomes and rapidly changing lifestyles. A busy lifestyle coupled with long working hours have forced people to shift from elaborate luncheons and meals to desk snacks and packaged foods. Other factors like value addition and growth of emerging markets are also expected to propel the demand of this market. According to IMARC Group, the global potato chips market has grown at a CAGR of around 4% during 2009-2016 and reached a market value worth US$ 26 Billion.

4.2. Indian Snacks Food Market

After 1995, India has seen a massive change in Snack food market. The meaning of snack has been redefined from chips and cookies to beverages, mini-meals and even three items on the plate. There is a rise in demand of snacks market which drives manufactures to grow and operate in this segment lucratively.

Due to the busier lifestyle in the recent past, the demand for convenience products has increased a lot with the thrust of packaged food in India. With the advancement of technology, urbanization, increase in purchasing power, growth in female work population,

‹#› 8 Briny Food Products

expansion of nuclear families has augmented the business of the packaged snack food and attracted a large mass toward the snack market in India. In order to save time, people are gradually shifting to ready to eat food items.

And the growth rate of the packaged food market has been remarkable in last five years. The food industry has expanded at the rate of 15.6% over the last few years. The consistent growth rate presently outlooks for driving growth in future too.

The consumers are looking forward for healthier and flavourful options in the food market. There is an increase in the consumer interest towards snacks as there are various brands in this segment with newer technology and more benefits giving them refreshing and quick meals.

The fast expanding retail network and the convenience and ease of acquiring it, contributes towards the rapid growth of the industry. I addition, there are no such regulations and Government policies regarding the establishment of such companies in India which motivates the manufacturers to set up its units.

Apart from this, there are some challenges the Indian snack industry has which can result in a setback. Despite of so many companied in the market, the market yet needs to find Indian flavors to fully satisfy them. The new items have failed to replace the traditional food at some places. Chips and biscuits are still considered by Indians and so new categories are created which would require time and persistence. Healthier and tastier snack is still needed to raise the demands.

So the leading players in this segment are taking relevant steps to retain, sustain and grow in the market. They are trying their level best with various innovative options, tastes and flavors in the industry meeting the expectations of Indian consumers.

The Indian snack industry snack industry has major trends and developments in India over the years. It is stable at present and has strong growth potential in future.

4.3. Present Scenario Of Food Processing Industries In India

India is today the second largest producer of food in the world. Agriculture production has shown a growth of about three per cent per annum, and today, India is the number one producer of milk, and second largest producer of fruits and vegetables in the world, with a buffer stock of over 60 million tonnes of wheat and rice. Due to poor handling of the produce, post-harvest losses have been high, resulting in a significant gap between gross production and the net availability of the produce to the consumer. The profits from agricultural commodities have also greatly diminished. Since nineties, the cost of agricultural inputs has increased faster than the market price of the outputs.

As a result, farmers are about 15-20 per cent worse off, even after taking into account the gains in productivity. There are very few examples of successful food processing centres, much less the agricultural clusters, not just in India but even globally. Location of food- processing units should be strategically placed depending upon the raw material availability, labour, product utilisation and domestic and/or export marketing.

Food processing industry is of enormous significance for India’s development because of the vital linkages and synergies it promotes between the two pillars of our economy, industry and agriculture. Fast growth in the food processing sector and simultaneous improvement in the development of value chain are also of great importance to achieve favourable terms of trade for Indian agriculture both in the domestic and the international markets. The sector however, has to go a long way. Even important is the crucial contribution that an efficient food processing industry could make in the nation’s food security for instance the post- harvest losses of selected fruits and vegetables are about 25 to 30 percent in our country. Even marginal reductions in these losses are bound to give us better returns and thereby improve the income level of the farmers.

India has evolved from a food-scarce to a food-surplus nation during the last decade and the ever-growing trade in the production of food commodities indicates that the industry is on track in terms of growth and profitability. India’s USD 600 Billion food processing industry is

www.projectplusfood.com 10 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 10 Briny Food Products

expected to grow three-fold by 2020. India currently ranks second in terms of global food production, next only to China.

India leads in the production of milk, bananas, mangoes, guavas, papayas, ginger and buffalo meat. However, in order to realise the maximum potential of the sector, a rising concern of wastage needs a dire attention. Hence, the development of the sector in the country will further strengthen the link between agriculture and manufacturing by using modern food processing technologies and cold storage techniques.

Food processing sector is indispensable for the overall development of an economy as it provides a vital linkage and synergy between the agriculture and industry. It helps to diversify and commercialise farming; enhance income of farmers; create markets for export of agro foods as well as generate greater employment opportunities. Through the presence of such industries, a wider range of food products could be sold and distributed to the distant locations.

The term 'food processing' is mainly defined as a process of value addition to the agricultural or horticultural produce by various methods like grading, sorting and packaging. In other words, it is a technique of manufacturing and preserving food substances in an effective manner with a view to enhance their shelf life; improve quality as well as make them functionally more useful. It covers spectrum of products from sub-sectors comprising agriculture, horticulture, plantation, animal husbandry and fisheries.

Food processing industry is one of the largest industry in India and is ranked 5th in terms of production, consumption and export. Earlier, food processing was largely confined to the food preservation, packaging and transportation, which mainly involved salting, curdling, drying, pickling, etc. However, over the years, with emerging new markets and technologies, the sector has widened its scope. It has started producing many new items like ready-to-eat food, beverages, processed and frozen fruit and vegetable products, marine and meat products, etc. It also includes establishment of post-harvest infrastructure for processing of various food

www.projectplusfood.com 11 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 11 Briny Food Products

items like cold storage facilities, food parks, packaging centres, value added centres, irradiation facilities and modernised abattoir.

The food processing sector comprises of two segments- Primary processed food and Value added food. Primary segment comprises of packaged fruit and vegetables, milk, flour, rice, spices etc and constitutes around 62% in value terms of the processed foods. Value added segment includes processed fruits and vegetables, juices, jam & jelly etc and holds around 38 % share in the total processed food.

In an emerging country like India, where growth with equity is a primary policy thrust, the optimum development of the food processing sector will contribute significantly in tackling several developmental concerns such as disguised unemployment in agriculture, rural poverty, food security, food inflation, improved nutrition, prevention of wastage of food etc. By serving as a bridge between agriculture and manufacturing and by dealing with a basic need of all Indian citizens – the assured supply of healthy and affordable food at all locations in the country, this sector has the potential to be a major driver in India‘s growth in the coming years. In fact the food processing sector has been growing faster than the agriculture sector.

The food processing industry includes a diverse group of companies involved in the processing of products like fish, meat, milk, crops and water. It includes millions of Small & Medium Enterprises (SMEs) worldwide and also some of the largest companies in the world. Many of these companies deliver products directly to consumers, while others specialize in Business- to-Business activities (ingredients, commodity markets). Some companies directly participate in all areas of food production, from farming activities through to final production and retail. Others are concentrated more at the top end of the production chain or buy through commodity markets. In fact, Food processing is one of the world‘s largest industries from the perspective of the number of companies involved in the sector, as well as in terms of its total economic value.

4.4. Future Of Indian Food Industry

The food processing industry is one of the largest industries in India and is all set to soar heights in the near future. Even, Government of India also knows the Future is too bright for Indian food Industries, as, food has also been one of the largest segments in India’s retail sector, which was valued at USD 490 billion in 2013. The Indian food retail market is expected to reach USD 894.98 billion by 2020.

The food processing sector has been growing at the rate of 12 per cent annually, officials said. The entire Indian agriculture value chain is set to change drastically and food processing is going to be one of the main industries of the country in the future, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said in November 2017. And, we are feeling right as on today.

It’s only growing. A lot of western food and beverage giants are already looking to collaborate with Indian companies for their packaged food products. Companies that manufacture full food processing lines are also eying this part of the world. Every year when I visit the trade shows, I see more processed food exhibitors than the previous year. And, Online food ordering business in India is in its nascent stage, but witnessing exponential growth.

The organized food business in India, which is worth USD 48 billion, of which food delivery is valued at USD 15 billion, has a huge potential, and hundreds of new era of food processing will be created, by keeping these all facts.

There is too much potential for a new entrepreneur, who would like to enter in food processing like the following:

FDI POLICY- 100 % FDI under government approval route for, trading, including through e- Commerce for Food Products produced and manufactured in India.

FISCAL INCENTIVE- 100 % Income tax exemption to food processing, units on profits for the first five years of operation and 25 % thereafter for the next 5 years. Pasteurizing, drying, evaporating, etc. machinery used in Dairy Sector is exempted from Excise Duty. Excise duty

Refrigerated containers from 12.5% to 6%. Custome duty reduction in cold storage related items in Budget 2016-17.

MEGA FOOD PARK- Government giving grand aid up to 75% on the basis of the general area or a difficult area to set up Mega Food Park.

SPECIAL FUND IN NABARD- To provide loans up to seven years, they have accumulated Rs.2000 crore of the fund to NABARD for food processing units.

Above are the few examples, such hundreds of arrangements are being done by Government to strengthen food Industries in India, thus definitely, the future is very bright.

www.projectplusfood.com 14 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 14 Briny Food Products

And not only these are the only reason, but the cause behind the bright future of Food Industry is also:

• Growing populations and their vast demand for food

• Government policies like, ‘Make in India’, ‘Startup India’ • Increase in consumers purchasing level/Power. • Access to all branded food materials even at the village level • Changing lifestyle patterns

According to research by the India Brand Equity Foundation, the spending capacity of the Indian middle class is anticipated to double by 2025. With the rise in disposable income and access to credit, the Indian middle class will have a high spending capacity on ready to eat or other food items, which was not the scenario before 10years.

4.5. Strategies For Success In India's Snack Food Market

4.5.1. Ravenous growth

Thanks to a growing population and rising income levels, the Indian food sector has one of the strongest growth fundamentals of any industry. For packaged snack foods these fundamentals are complemented by two further growth drivers; convenience and the nation’s eating habits.

With smaller families leading busier urban lives, the time and resources for regular home cooking are rapidly declining. At the same time, longer working hours and lengthy commutes leave less time for regular sit-down meals. Snack foods have been a long-time favourite in the Indian diet and now packaged and branded variants of namkeen, sweets and wafers have become the natural solution to the culinary cravings induced by the modern Indian lifestyle. The combination of these factors is propelling the snack food sector toward a projected compound annual growth rate of 14% from 2011 to 2015.

www.projectplusfood.com 15 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 15 Briny Food Products

4.5.2. An attractive sector for new entrants

Established snack food players like Haldirams and Pepsi Lehar have been joined by a new wave of market entrants in recent years, attracted to the sector thanks to its high growth rate and the relatively low level of capital required to establish production.

Amongst the new arrivals are many regional entrepreneurs who have backed themselves to succeed based on a better understanding of India’s distinctive local tastes and delicacies. Meanwhile, large FMCG players have bet that their brand name and marketing expertise can extend their clout to a new product category.

Although the market is large and diverse enough to accommodate a broad range of both existing players and new entrants, those moving into the sector need to be aware of a number of challenges to long-term success and develop their strategies accordingly.

4.6. Key Challenges and Strategic Responses in Snacks Food

4.6.1. Challenge: Competition from above and below

Companies entering the Indian snack food market need to be braced for competition on all fronts. Simply transposing the competitive scenario from the national level to a regional setting could be a recipe for over-optimistic sales projections. In many areas, local producers catering to specific regional tastes may actually be a greater threat than the leading national brand names.

At the other end of the spectrum, the existing pan-India competition may be disrupted by large consumer goods firms and major retailers making a foray into the snack food sector. ITC has been the most notable example of this through its heavily promoted Bingo chip brand. With the scope of organized retail ever expanding, private label brands such as Tasty Treats from Big Bazaar will also pose a stiffer challenge to snack food manufacturers hoping to sell through this increasingly important channel.

www.projectplusfood.com 16 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 16 Briny Food Products

4.6.2. Response: Develop an entry strategy based on your own strengths

Companies entering India’s snack food market should build their entry strategy around their own key strengths to ensure they are better prepared to take on the competition. For example, those companies starting out with a more limited product range may benefit from launching in multiple locations in order to achieve sustainable volumes and gain sufficient customer insights. On the other, hand those companies possessing a wide variety of products may do well to focus on a particular region first. Allowing them to achieve penetration across categories as well testing the more complex distribution this entails before they expand elsewhere. In both scenarios, companies need to carry out a detailed analysis of consumer tastes and conduct competitor mapping at the local and national level before deciding on their preferred points of entry.

4.6.3. Challenge: Rising Input Costs

Input costs are a critical factor in the food industry and commodity prices have been rising at record rates in recent years. In India, the vagaries of the monsoon have a major effect on the price of snack food staples like wheat and potato, and the volatility of the Rupee creates additional challenges for those using imported ingredients like cocoa. Furthermore, as food accounts for a high percentage of the average Indian’s budget, even small price movements can a have a major effect on demand.

4.7. Responses: Develop a clear pricing strategy

With global food price inflation set to persist, snack food manufacturers need robust strategies if they are to sustain growth and protect margins to innovate lower cost alternatives & pursue backward integration .

Firstly, snack food manufacturers need to develop a clear pricing strategy so they can respond in a timely and effective manner to rising costs. When confronted with such a scenario they have three possible options: increase prices, reduce pack size or keep prices the same.

www.projectplusfood.com 17 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 17 Briny Food Products

All of these options have advantages and disadvantages but manufacturers should prepare their response according to their target customer, the response of their competitors and their long-term strategy. For example, a mass-market potato chip manufacturer with highly price- sensitive customers may seek to absorb lower margins to gain market share from competitors who immediately pass on rising costs to their customer.

In addition to pricing strategies, manufacturers could develop lower cost alternatives to their existing products to retain price-conscious customers. Due to high cocoa prices, a number of leading Indian brands have launched biscuits with lower cost vanilla fillings rather than the traditional chocolate in order to keep prices affordable.

Thirdly, India’s highly fragmented food chain offers plenty of scope for backward integration. This would eliminate the margin captured by a large number of non-value-adding intermediaries, resulting in lower input costs. Pepsi Lehar pioneered such a strategy through contract farming in Punjab. By agreeing directly with the farmers to purchase potatoes at a fixed price in advance, they can guarantee future supplies at stable prices. With the regulatory environment becoming more favourable, such initiatives will become a critical factor for long- term success in the Indian snack food market.

4.8. Challenge: Diverging Consumer Trends

In a large market like India, with such extremes in income levels and lifestyles, consumer trends can seem to move in conflicting directions at the same time, posing a major challenge to strategic planning. In response to a wave of media concern about rising obesity and diabetes in recent years, leading snack food players began offering health-oriented products advertised as low fat, low sugar and low . However, the market response to many of these initiatives was less than rewarding. Marico, for example, had to withdraw its healthy baked snack Saffola Zest after poor sales. Whilst health foods may be a growing niche, for many Indian consumers packaged snack foods represent a new and exciting way to add some long sought after indulgence to their daily diet. Even for those wealthier groups afflicted by lifestyle diseases, taste still overrides health as the main determinant of their snack food choices.

4.9. Response: Closely monitor micro as well as macro trends

Snack foods manufacturers must balance the urge to respond to prevailing trends in the broader market place with a constant focus on their target customers. Whilst innovation is an integral part of success in fast-moving consumer goods, if it is not driven by customer needs it will result in alienation rather than improved brand loyalty. For example, the FMCG sector is currently focused on consumers’ search for value in a tougher economic climate. However, consumers of a premium snack food brand may be largely indifferent to changes in price given the small part of their budget such purchases account for. What is more, by adopting a lower cost positioning or offering cheaper variants, such a company could actually undermine its value proposition to its target segment.

To counter this risk of misreading the market, snack food companies should closely monitor the micro trends occurring within their target customer group as well as tracking the macro trends affecting the sector as a whole. Such an approach will give companies the confidence to take a divergent view from the competition wherever it better serves their customers.

Taking stock of the challenges in the Indian snack food sector and preparing a coherent set of strategic responses will stand companies in good stead as they seek to exploit the growing market opportunity and withstand the intensifying competition.

5.5. The Branded Salty Snacks Market in India

20 years ago, snacking on chips meant the deep fried, homemade (sliced, sundried, stored) potato chips our mothers were adept at making along with dozens of other savory snacks. Today, all we need to do is tear open a packet of our favorite brand. Indians love ‘snacking’ and, over the past two decades, branded salty snacks have found high acceptance across large and small cities to become the preferred choice of consumers.

The branded salty snacks market has come a long way from the 1990s, when the market was marked by the presence of brands like Haldiram’s and (eventually acquired by PepsiCo) and there were few other regional brands. The market registered a major leap in the mid-90s when beverage major PepsiCo introduced Lay’s and Cheetos, and later, Kurkure. Since then, many national and regional players have forayed into the space with diverse offerings. Post 2005, consumer products companies ITC (Bingo) and Parle Agro (Hippo) also entered the market, and, in 2009, Cavinkare also made inroads into the market through the acquisition of Garden Namkeens. Several organized retailers have introduced their private labels in this space. Global food and beverages company Del Monte has been envisaging an Indian market entry (as per media reports).

At present, the branded salty snacks market is estimated to be worth INR 10,000 crore (USD 1.68 billion), and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 15-18% over the next few years. This market can be broadly divided into two segments, viz. ü Western snacks Potato chips, extruded snacks like Kurkure, etc. ü Traditional snacks Namkeens, bhujia, daal, bhakarwadi, khakhra, banana chips, etc.

www.projectplusfood.com 22 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 22 Briny Food Products

PepsiCo leads the western snacks market, and, together with other prominent players in this segment (ITC, Balaji, Parle Products, Prakash Snacks, and Haldiram’s), holds a share in excess of 70% of the market. In the traditional snacks space, Haldiram’s and the regional player, Balaji Namkeen, together account for over 50%.

The rest of the market is fragmented, and understandably so, given that the market is driven by strong regional tastes and preferences. There are several reasons which have led to the growth of the branded salty snacks markets. Some of these are mentioned below:

• Changing consumer lifestyles and consumption patterns: The increasing urbanization, growth in number of double income households, and rising time poverty has resulted in changing consumption patterns, especially in the food category. This has fuelled the demand for convenience foods as consumers no longer have either the knowhow or the time to make these products at home. At the same time, the spurt in disposable incomes has resulted in the increased exploration of the various snack brands available in the market, whether traditional or western. Consumers are also trading up from unbranded to branded snacks, especially in the traditional snacks segment, given the heightened concerns for quality and the greater availability of branded options. This has resulted in branded snacks becoming an all-time food for the munching needs of consumers. • Growing consumer base: Snacking is not just about children or youth. Snacking between meals is a habitual occurrence in the day-to-day lives of most Indian consumers. Further, snacks no longer cater to a single consumer segment, but instead have a diverse consumer appeal and are increasingly being consumed across different age groups. Branded snacks are also fast penetrating the semi-urban and rural space which has been traditionally dominated by unbranded or homemade products. As a result, the market has witnessed a high growth trajectory and various new players are foraying into the market while the existing ones are expanding to cash in on its growth potential. • More variants and options: There was a time when branded salty snacks were mostly potato chips. However, players have innovated over time to offer new products like extruded snacks besides expanding their traditional snacks offerings, e.g. Murukku,

www.projectplusfood.com 23 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 23 Briny Food Products

Chakoli, Mathri, Gathiya, , etc. which has seen several consumers upgrade from the unbranded market to branded products. Also, given the increasing concerns surrounding ‘unhealthy’ snacking, players have positioned brands and products around ‘health’, e.g. baked, roasted, multigrain, low fat, etc. to reach out to the health- conscious segments. This has helped them target a larger consumer base across the country. • Greater availability and affordability: Branded snacks are now easily available across both modern and traditional retail formats, from supermarkets and mom-and-pop stores to small tea stalls, office canteens, paanwalas, etc. Most brands are available in multiple pack sizes including small ones at attractive price points (INR 5, 10, etc.) leading to higher affordability and increased category presence and more product trials.

While the branded market was created and led by western snacks, both western and traditional snacks today hold a nearly equal share, indicating the higher growth of branded traditional snacks. However, this does not imply that the growth has come at the cost of western snacks; it is more due to the unbranded market being converted to a branded traditional market. Another trend which is true for traditional snacks is that while our palates may change every 200 km, and regional preferences are strong, there has been an increasing democratization of preferences, and many hitherto regional snack items have found nationwide acceptance, e.g. banana chips.

Over the past few years, the market has witnessed a slew of activities, the emergence of new players, the expansion of snacks portfolio through continuous product innovations, aggressive marketing campaigns to establish consumer connect, shift in consumption with increasing demand for convenience, etc. Going forward, the prospects for the branded snacks market remain bright. However, players will need to focus continuously on product innovation to combat competition, both from within this category (branded as well as unbranded) as well as from other categories. While consumers are upgrading to branded products, the unbranded market remains huge in size. Also, there are still hundreds of traditional snack categories for which branded options do not exist, which presents both an opportunity as well as a threat.

Additionally, rising health consciousness owing to sedentary lifestyles and the increasing incidence of lifestyle diseases in urban India has resulted in a demand for ‘healthy’ snacks. This is only expected to increase in the future and presents lucrative opportunities for both existing as well as new players. The challenge will be to achieve the right balance of taste, health, and price.

Distribution remains the key to any brand; the challenge for players will be to strengthen their distribution networks and expand their retail reach. For regional brands, growing outside their ‘home turf’ and connecting with consumers in other regions will be a challenge. Players will need to be prudent and understand the regional palate and pulse. Moreover, maintaining product price points and margins is crucial given the fluctuations in raw material costs and the investment in manufacturing, limiting the creation of economies of scale. Despite these challenges, branded salty snacks will remain an attractive market opportunity in times to come. It will be interesting to see how the competition in this market pans out over the next few years.

The strategy significantly extends the range of Kurkure’s offer, with the brand moving beyond its core tedha medha (crooked shape) extruded corn based chips into areas such as peanuts and fryed moong dal. The reorganization involves the phasing out of Lehar, which has struggled to build its presence in the traditional namkeen market.

6. MARKETING PLAN:

6.1. Executive Summary

This report has made sincere efforts in identifying what all factors are important in launching a new namkeen brand in the Indian market. What are the factors affecting the overall market i.e. the forces shaping it and also the market competitiveness.

Indians seem to be snacking on ethnic foods with a vengeance. This is good news for the corporate sector, given that the past few years have seen a perceptible shift towards the branded sector at the cost of the unbranded segment.

6.2. New Product Idea and Market Opportunity

Product is the most important part of the marketing mix. It signifies what you are going to sell to the consumer. A comprehensive analysis of the Industry and Market Survey has given us a platform on which our product can be built. Our product will be built for the masses, and expansion shall be gradual, to cater to the entire country’s needs. Savoury Snacks is a product, which needs three important things:

1. Taste. 2. Quality. 3. Variation.

In the same order of significance we need to provide all three to our consumers.

Ours is a Company whose Product shall stand for something every Indian craves for. We are entering a market already dominated by a number of branded and unbranded players. Customers are extremely loyal to the Snacks they consume. So we thought about what would make these customers come to us?

6.3. Market Opportunities

The average annual per capita consumption of commercial snacks is just 500g and that by urbanites is 10 times more than that by rural consumers. This may be since most rural houses make these at home or buy from the local vendors that come in the unorganized market.

Consumers from Western India are the leading snack consumers, followed by the North. While the domestic ethnic snack foods industry is hugely diverse, has easy access to indigenous technology and involves low entry barriers, standardization of product quality and

www.projectplusfood.com 31 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 31 Briny Food Products

backward links to testing facilities are at woefully low levels. Naturally, opportunity is screaming from the rooftops.

The big question is whether branded players will edge past their unbranded counterparts? Brand marketers say they will. Factors like hygiene and quality is steadily bringing about a switch from unorganized to branded namkeens. One will not grow at the cost of the other and that both categories will co-exist.

Cottage-industry-level players offer themselves as suppliers to deep-pocketed marketers. The APEDA study states that though backroom operations dominate ethnic snacks, improper labeling, haphazard distribution channels, storage problems and inadequate marketing efforts take their toll. Branded players, with their quality control systems and standardized raw material sourcing in place, can effectively weed out those problems. One differential between branded and unorganized namkeens is that of price (roughly 25 per cent), but that's not a perceptible bottleneck, say marketers.

An aspect that leads to quick movement of ethnic snacks is the consumption convenience or `consume anywhere-anytime' factor. It can be had with cocktails, at teatime, as props with regular meals like breakfast or as starters with dinner.

6.4. Margins

Consumers are willing to pay a premium for convenience shopping. Thus, the relative share of grocers dropped. Chemist outlets on the other hand, have been expanding their product range to include high margin FMCG products. Panwallas are also emerging as full-fledged consumer product outlets.

With the increasing number of retail outlets, the visibility of the products in the market increases and so does its availability. We would try to make the best of it by tapping these so that we can penetrate further into the market and also increase our sales.

Entire snacks being a mass product we would ideally want for our products to be virtually at every single retail outlet. Competitors such as ITC and Frito lay who have a wide network of distribution chain will have to be matched in order to give them a stiff competition.

Grocers, pan stores, General Stores, Food stores will be aggressively aimed at. More shelf space and advertising on the shops will be sought to.

6.5. Pricing strategy

The price of a product in the market in an important factor influencing consumer demand. hence to be marketable, a dairy and others fresh and processed fruits & vegetables product must be competitively priced. This implies that the costs involved in raw material procurement, processing, packaging, storage, marketing and distributing must be kept as low as possible. Generally the price of a product will involve the following costs-

• Cost of raw material • Cost of raw material collection and transportation • Cost of processing • Cost of packaging, marketing and distribution • Taxes and tariffs • Profit margins at each stage of the marketing channel (collection, processing, and marketing margins)

6.6. Business Promotion

Promotion is one of the key elements of the marketing mix, and deals with any one or two way communication that task place with the consumer. Deciding on a marketing communications strategy is one of the primary roles of the marketing manager and this process involves some key decision about who the customer is, how to contact them, and what the massage should be.

Potato wafers are manufactured in mechanized plant under hygienic conditions for snack foods market. Fully grown and ripe potatoes are generally received for storage at the plant in sacks. The production process mainly comprises of the following steps:

Washing and Peeling –

The potatoes are first thoroughly washed before peeling them with the help of a peeler. They are fed to a peeler where high speed abrasive rotating discs remove the skin. Then these potatoes are trimmed and put in brine water for 30-35 minutes to prevent browning.

Slicing and Blanching –

Afterwards they are cut in the required sizes on slicing machine. These slices are blanched in boiling water.

Drying and Frying –

7.3. Proposed Potato Chips Supply Chain: Food quality and safety issues

7.3.1. Processing and quality requirements The quality parameters set in place through the chain are driven by the buyer requirements and specific requirements for processing. Potatoes grown in India for traditional use have high sugar content and fewer solids. Processing requires potatoes with no sugar content and high solids (between 15 and 20 percent). Specific requirements are met by ensuring quality compliance at every stage, research and development, farming, storing, processing, and packaging.

www.projectplusfood.com 37 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 37 Briny Food Products

7.3.2. Research and development thrust areas As mentioned above, potatoes required for making chips, and other fried products must have low sugar content to avoid browning of the finished product. The sugar content of potatoes is determined by the genotype and several pre- and post-harvest factors. The major preharvest factors affecting sugar content are crop maturity, temperature during growth, mineral nutrition and irrigation, while important post-harvest factors are mechanical stresses and storage conditions. Each genotype requires an ideal pre- and post-harvest treatment to maintain low sugar levels; any kind of stress results in sugar accumulations. As most of the potatoes in India are used as cooking potatoes the most common variety grown in West Bengal is Kufri Jyoti, another major variety is Kufri Chandramukhi. Chipsona I, Chipsona II, Chipsona III, LR and Atlantic with low sugar and high solid contents have been introduced for processing purposes.

7.3.3. Farm inputs The company will ensures the availability of inputs to farmers working in the area under contract. The vendor in the region ensures that the farmers falling under his or her supervision have all the required inputs at the right time. In West Bengal, the company advises on the use of quality inputs. If the company provides inputs then the cost is deducted when potatoes are purchased from farmers. Seed potatoes of specific varieties for processing are provided by the company.

7.3.4. Farm production In order to produce a specific variety of potato and to enhance productivity the Company will be very closely involved with its potato contract farmers. The company has employed a team of agricultural graduates, who will work with the farmers to provide technical input and to monitor the production of the farmers in their specified area. One technical expert deals with approximately 100 farmers. The general practice in West Bengal is to grow the potato crop after paddy. Early planting of potatoes leads to early harvesting of the produce, which fetches a higher price. To produce potatoes early, farmers are recommended to go for short duration paddy so that land is available for early potato cropping.

7.3.5. Harvesting and packaging “Handle potatoes like eggs, not like stones” will be the message the company agronomists be giving farmers. This statement conveys the care taken through the post-harvest management process. Traditionally, jute bags will be used for packaging potatoes. Instead of jute bags, the company has propagated the use of plastic bags for packaging as it ensures better storage.

7.3.6. Grading and sorting At the company’s unloading dock, the potatoes will be mechanically graded for size. Potatoes that are too small for processing are separated. There is also visual inspection for damaged potatoes. Test for sugar content is undertaken by frying a small sample from this lot. Potatoes with high starch content will turn red on frying. Sample tests are also undertaken for solid content. Potatoes that do not meet the requirements are rejected.

7.3.7. Storage Critical factors in successful storage include variety, methods of culture, harvest, field curing, temperature and humidity control, storage and sprouting inhibition. Potatoes are stored at 12°C to control conversion of starch into sugar. At this temperature potatoes can be stored up to four months. Potatoes are also treated to limit sprouting.

7.3.8. Processing centre The selected produce is taken to the processing plant and is subjected to washing and peeling. Peeled potatoes are subject to metal detection and inspection for physical damages and discoloration. Following this, the potatoes are run through rotating slicers and are subjected to , seasoning & packaging.

10. RAW MATERIAL STUDY

The main raw material for the project is potato, corn & rice girts. India is a major producer of potato with a yearly production of around 53 million tonnes and rank Second in global potato production after China. Uttar Pradesh is the largest producer of potatoes in India with about 150 lac tons production in 2018-19.The other major producers are West Bengal, Bihar, Punjab, MP, Gujarat and Assam. Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal and Bihar account for more than 80% of total production.

There are two major cropping seasons in India – kharif, during the south-west monsoon(June/July through September October), when agricultural production takes place both in rain fed areas and irrigated land. The other season is Rabi, during the winter, when agricultural activities take place only in irrigated areas. About 80% of the crop is raised during winter season.

With phenomenal increase in potato production in the last 10 years, recurring gluts have become common in the country. Prices crash drastically during harvesting months leading to

www.projectplusfood.com 45 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 45 Briny Food Products

panic sale by farmers and in turn leading to monetary losses. Potato growers and traders hoard the commodity after harvesting to facilitate uniform availability of the crop throughout the year in the market and to realize better prices. Potato can be kept in cold storages without spoiling for 5-6 months.

10.1. India’s potato production maps

Figure 1: State-Wise Potato Production In The Country

Potato varieties suited to the country's climate - hot summers and short winters - are grown on the Indo-Gangetic plain during the short winter days from October to March, while some year-round production takes place in relatively high altitude areas in the south.

10.5. Potato Contract farming status in West Bengal

The supply chain developed by Pepsico’s Frito Lay so as to purchase potatoes that are suitable for processing into chips. Frito Lay in India supplies potatoes from small landholders. Because the quality requirements of Frito Lay for process-grade potatoes are very strict, the company has set up a network of agronomists and partnerships with other public and private service providers to help smallholder farmers produce potatoes that are suitable for processing. The service network that Frito Lay has organized for its suppliers contributes to reducing the risks faced by farmers. The production margins of potato farmers under contract with Frito Lay are also higher than those of farmers selling their potatoes to the traditional market. These are elements that contribute to retaining farmers from defaulting on their supply contract with Frito Lay despite the lack of enforcement mechanism for these contracts. This case study is also an organizational model of a private-public partnership to allow small farmers to link sustainably with a large agribusiness.

Bengal is reportedly the largest supplier of potatoes to Frito-Lay's India operations. According to West Bengal Cold Storage Association (WBCSA), the company nearly doubled its procurement from the State to 120,000 tonnes in 2018-19.

The major chips variety potato are available in Burdwan, Birbhum, Hooghly, Bankura and Midnapore (West) districts in West Bengal. “Owing to good growth, our potato requirement has been growing rapidly.

12. NUTRITIONAL SIGNIFICANCE

Snack foods frequently receive criticism due to their high levels of salt, sugar, and fat. They are seen to be nutritionally damaging when eaten regularly in place of a traditional food. Snack foods, however, can be very nutritious when made from fruits, pulses, or cereals. It should also be pointed out that the consumption of snack foods does not necessarily lead to health problems such as obesity, but the cause is rather an unbalanced diet with excess fat, sugar, and salt. Therefore, if these food products are part of a wider diet, they can be an important source of fats and energy, particularly for the poorer sectors of society whose diet may be lacking in these nutrients. Often, it is cheaper to purchase snack foods than it is to make a meal at home. This is likely to be one of the reasons why poor people are relying more and more on such products. Nutrition Facts

plant layout, main plant and machinery will be housed in the ground floor and auxiliary facilities will be located on the first floor. The company has engaged experienced civil contractor with good track record for civil engineering and site construction.

14. PROJECT MISCELLANEOUS

14.1. Employment Opportunity The proposed unit of manufacturing of Potato chips & different fried and extruded snacks will provide Direct Employment in the unit from local area and outside also. The proposed unit requires skilled staff as well as un-skilled labour, workers. So the proposed unit must have a little contribution in solving the vast unemployment problem in our state.

14.2. Technical Know-How

All the process is easy and simple. It requires no such special knowledge and technological know-how to produce different namkeen & salty snacks from corresponding raw materials. As almost all the products are fried food items, the only thing that is essentially required are its quality and standards. Only good quality of raw material can produce good quality of product.

14.3. Plant & machinery

Plant and machinery has been selected by the company with the help of technical persons in the group companies and leading equipment supplier of food processing industry. The company has also consulted experts in the industry in selection of plant and machinery for the project.

14.4. Power & other utilities

Requirement of power is estimated at about 300 KW. The Company would approach WBSEDCL for supply of necessary power for the project. Power will be drawn from the distribution line laid by WBSEDCL for the Industrial Park.

Requirement of water will be met from the industrial Park Supply available to the site.

Requirement of nitrogen gas will be met from the Nitrogen generator installed by the Company

14.5. Energy Conservation

Proper insulation reduces the heat loss in fryer, Oven and all the thermic fluid pipe line

14.6. Pollution Control & Environmental Aspect

The waste water discharged from the plant will be contaminated due to presence of dissolved gases and chemicals and needs to be treated before discharge. Company will install effluent treatment plant for treating the waste water to ensure permissible level of biochemical oxygen demand and chemical oxygen demand as per PCB norms.

14.6.1. Source of Waste water The effluent from various sources will be accumulated and drained into a common Equalization Tank. The effluent enters the Inlet Channel where Bar screens will be provided to screen out the larger, non-biodegradable suspended solids. These screenings will be periodically disposed of into the Sludge Drying Beds. From the Inlet channel the raw effluent will flow into an underground Equalization Tank where it will be retained for some time before being pumped to the Aeration Tank. An Effluent Transfer Pump of appropriate capacity will be used for the purpose. There will be provision of aeration in the Equalization Tank to maintain homogeneity and prevent formation of septic conditions.

www.projectplusfood.com 56 IN-COMMERCIAL-CONFIDENCE

‹#› 56 Briny Food Products

In view of the high organic load of the effluent Dual- stage Aeration has been considered as the mode of biological treatment. The effluent first enters the Aeration Tank -1 (AT-1). In the Aeration Tank biological oxidation of dissolved and fine suspended organic matter takes place in the presence of oxygen which will result in the lowering of BOD (Biological Oxygen demand) and COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand). Air Blowers with diffuser grid network will be employed to supply adequate air in the Aeration tank. As need be bacterial culture and food supplements will be added.

14.6.2. Technical specification of ETP The ETP has been designed based on the following Raw Effluent Quality. We presume this composition will remain fairly constant throughout the year and any variation in the composition will reflect on the quality of the output of the plant.

S. No. Parameter Inlet Outlet 1. pH 6.5–8.0 6.5-8.0 2. TSS 200-300mg/l < 100mg/l 3. TDS 550-750mg/l - 4. BOD 1200mg/l ≤ 20mg/l 5. COD 2000mg/l <100mg/l

14.6.3. Treatment Scheme:

The Aeration Tank-1 will be followed by Secondary Settling Tank -1 (SST -1) where the suspended solid particles and the excess biomass settles out as sludge by virtue of gravity. Square tube modules will be provided for faster settling. From the SST-1 the supernatant then flows into the Aeration Tank -2 (AT-2) followed by Secondary Settling Tank -2(SST-2).

A portion of the settled sludge, known as ‘Activated Sludge’, from the SST -1 will be recirculated back to AT -1 and similarly from SST -2 to AT-2 for seeding purposes and to maintain the desired MLSS levels. Sludge Recirculation Pumps of suitable capacities will be used for the purpose.

The treated effluent from SST-2 will then be collected in a Chlorine Contact Chamber. Here Hypochlorite will be dosed for the purpose of disinfection with the aid of a dosing pump. After disinfection the treated effluent can be safely discharged to drains.

The screenings accumulated in the Bar Screen Chamber, along with the excess settled sludge from both the Secondary Settling Tanks tank will be pumped out to Sludge Holding Tank from where it will be pumped to Filter Press for dewatering. The filtrate will be discharged to drains whereas the sludge cakes can either be used as manure after proper conditioning or must be disposed off in secured landfills. Alternatively, the sludge can be taken to Sludge Drying Beds for sun drying and dewatering.

A.18 Conclusion

The sensitivity analysis shows that the project has the capability to withstand some adverse variance in selling price and raw material price from the assumptions underlying the financial projections.

Based on the above analysis it can be concluded that- • The company is projected to earn net profit from the first year of operation • The firm will generate adequate surplus for servicing of term loan as per schedule • The average DSCR over the tenor of term loan works out to 2.32 • Operating break even sales is 41.42% and capacity break even is 9.57% • IRR for the project is 20.50%

The project is considered technically feasible and economically viable subject to underlying assumptions and provides adequate safety to the lenders
