associated with Pakistans flag. It was a brand that promised natural and healthy milk. It further gained
strength when it was backed by Nestle Switzerland a well-established and reputable international brand
that bought in to it and expanded its scope and activities. It has recently highlighted the use of iron that
has been added to the milk and communicated this in its advertising and packaging. The tag line also
reads as making a stronger household.

Milk Collection
The core raw material of Nestle MilkPak is milk. Over the last Twenty Eight years, the company's prime
concern has been to improve the quality and volume of milk for UHT processing and for other milk based
products. The company successfully established its own collection system and expanded its operations
over a very large milk shed area in Punjab. Owing to this tremendous growth in the volume
of an extremely high quality raw milk, Nestle MilkPak now produces a superior quality and better tasting
UHT milk, with longer shelf life. Today, Nestle MilkPak can boast of the largest milk collection network
in the country, unmatched in size, productivity and efficiency. Milk is collected through a vast network of
village milk centers (VMCs), sub-centers and centers. At these centers, chillers have been installed to
lower milk temperature to 4C for preventing bacteria development during long hauls to the factories,
which are undertaken by a large fleet of specially insulated tankers.
Nestle gathers High Quality milk through a comprehensive strategy, intensive education program for the
farmers and the milk collection staff, up gradation of milk loading and transportation system, increase in
the chilling capacity and above all, adherence to the highest acceptance standards at all milk collection
points, including the factories.

IMC TOOLS CHOSEN BY COMPANY FOR PROMOTION OF MILKPAK


Promotion activities play an important role in re-launching any product. Increase in target market is
possible by personal selling. It includes persons in retail stores telling the benefits to potential
customers about importance of milk in standard packed form. Awareness plays the most important role.
They should taste house wives on different places. Because they are the main servers of
such kind of nutritional diets to their family members TV commercials and Bill Boards should be planned

grooming children that the reason Nestle launched Nesvita Milk especially designed for growing children
because introduction of calcium diets in daily diet chart is basic requirement.

To remind the consumers about the product, Nestl also made some special racks for retailers and put
them on their outlets and as compared to other milk selling companies existing in the country Nestle
shows always convincing messages to realize customers that always drink milk but only I pure form .

Rotary Plan

Here is an example of their billboards and rotary plan:


Nestle has placed more than 100 billboards across the roads. They have put on different skins of them,
which are showing different situations in which people are using pure wa-ter. According to the NESTLE
they use heavy outdoor advertisement to remind people about the availability of their product because
it is a product for which people never pre plan to purchase it so to motivate them for the purchase of
Nestle Milk Pack they have to place billboards. Beside this they rotate the skins of their billboards after

BILLBOARDS & COMMUNICATION PROCESS

Source
It can be assumed that all communication has a source. The source provides the purpose for
communication. This source should consist of ideas, needs intentions, information and purpose. Here in
this billboard the source is Nestle (The Company)

Encoding
Translating the source into a code requires encoding. Encoding develops the information from the source
into a code. Here in this billboard they are encoding that:
The Milk they are providing is so pure that it led you live a long healthy life because it provides you the
real energy and calciums which in turn makes a strong family and they thank the customers who had
faith in them.

Message
An encoded document would then express the purpose or message of the source, the message being
that body of information necessary for sufficient graphic communication. Here in this billboard the
message is BANAYE MAZBOT GHARANA.

Channel
The medium or carrier of the message would be the channel. It is correct to say that messages can exist
only in some channel; however, the choice of channels is often an important factor in the effectiveness
of communication. Here the channel is billboard.

Receiver
The receiver is the target of the communication. Mass Market is targeted as every-one milk in daily life in
different needs. Youngsters are prominent in the ad but they are using as symbol of fitness by using
Nestl Milk.

Decoding
The receiver must have a set of skills and abilities necessary to decode information into a usable format.
Just as a source needs encoding to translate the purpose into a message, the receiver needs a decoder to
understand the message. Here in this billboard the decoding is:

Natural Beauty
Healthy & Attractive Skin
Fresh
Energetic
Bright Faces

Noise/Interference
Unfortunately, this tidy package of communication tends to break down when subjected to the nemesis
of all communication environments, interference. Interference is the undesired outside influence that
tends to prevent the completion of effective communication. It is capable of occurring at any level or
stage in the process. The goal of any communication is to eliminate or minimize interference.
In case of billboard we can only consider the traffic signal as source of noise.

Response/Feedback:
The effectiveness of a communication is assessed when the source receives response. The response can
be in many forms. Hopefully, the response or feedback is premeditated and desirable. The feedback can
be a tangible product of the communication and can lend itself to easy evaluation.
We like to buy Nestls Milk because its purest form of milk.

SALES PROMOTION
As the main focus of the companys promotional campaign is advertising, sales promotion strategy is also
used somehow, along with excessive advertising, discounts and incentives are given to the customers as
well as the retailers and whole sellers on the following occasions especially.
Ramadan offers
Buy one get one free
Bundle packaging
As the above reason is the dearest occasion and people buy much milk and also tend to look for more
offers in the milk sales, therefore for boosting up sales, sales promotional discounts and bundle
packaging is available in these precious occasions.

INTERACTIVE OR INTERNET MARKETING


As the main focus of the firm is advertising, sometimes, especially on Eid and other important Muslim
occasions, internet advertising is done on a small scale in which pop-up come forward on kids websites
and play station downloads. These create interest and fun in kids and promote the brand.

PERSONAL SELLING
Initially when Milkpak was launched, it was sold door to door as well to create awareness in the country
people and especially in rural areas to drink pure milk without any impurities. But that was done for a
short time period, as the company is producing a normal consumer well therefore; it had its basic push
on massive advertising using almost all form of advertising.

CONCLUSION
To put the pre-going discussion in a nut-shell, It can be safely be ventured to opine that our company has
much potential at that time but if we use the above strategy in proper manner we easily conclude that
we will be able to lead the companies in the Pakistan and abroad. However there are some discrepancies
in such sectors so we can realize that all the features that are involved directly or indirectly in the
production are working properly at their positions.
Nestle transparency in the Milk price and the marked increase in the fresh milk delivered to its factories
is forcing the hands of competitors to progressively adapt to new imperatives. As for Pakistani customers
but in all over the world. Speaking for Nestle Milk Pack is the evident that the company has benefited its
regular customer on the basis of quality and originality. Thus the story of Nestle in Pakistan provides a
good example of successful joint venture between local companies Milk Pack Ltd. And a foreign company
Nestle. It is also an example of win win-partnership between a company Nestle Milkpak Ltd and all of its
suppliers in raw material.

In addition Nestle transparency in the milk prices and the marked quality increase in the fresh milk
deliver to its factories are forcing the hands of the competitors to progressively adapt to the new
imparities.

Speaking for Nestle milkpak it is evident that the company has benefiting for the spectacular
development of its factories in the milk district sales of finished products in UHT milks , yogurts ,milk
powder ,infant formulas, milk base cereals reached in 2004 compared to sales.
After taking an overview of the strategies of Nestle we can easily understand the successful journey of
Nestle Milkpak in all factors of advertisement and proper awareness about its products to the customers
before launching and after launching. Also evaluates the response and feedback of customers on basis or
its advertisement research.
