INDUSTRY PROFILE

Chocolate was discovered in the 18th century and every childs dream came true all over the
world. The various brands of chocolate often spoken about in India are Amul, Cadbury and
CAMPCO.
In olden days, the ancient human almost led a nomadic life wandering from place to place in
search of food. Food is the basic source of energy for living organisms including human beings.
Hence all living being need food. But in modern period, man had started discovering new
methods of producing food through Agriculture. The various activities involved in getting food
crops through agriculture are known as agricultural practices like management of soil, sowing,
transplantation and application of manure and fertilizers irrigation, weedcontrol, crop
improvement techniques, crop harvesting and protection. India is a land of villages. Nearly 6570% of our country is agriculturists. About 75% of the land used for agriculture is cultivated for
basic food grain hence it has become a basic industry in our country.
Agriculture is one of the oldest occupations of human beings. Agriculture means ploughing of
the land, sowing seeds, protecting plants and obtaining crops for the use of people and domestic
animals. Commercial crops not only help to earn foreign exchange but also provide raw
materials for industries. Cocoa is also one of the important commercial crops in India. Cocoa is
grown on the slopes of Niligiri Hills.
The discovery of cocoa was only a first step in the direction of chocolate. The Mayas were the
first to cultivate the cocoa bean for the fruits is yielded. They used the beans as an ingredient in
their favorite chocolate drink xocoatl. The Mexican Indian world chocolate comes from a
combination of the terms chocolate consumed in beverage force.
Before the Spanish explorer discovered the chocolate and other exotic foods were totally
unknown in Europe. In the 1600 European began to open fashionable chocolate houses to serve
xocoatl as Hot Chocolate scattered with sugar. In the 1700s the English began with adding milk
to improve the flavor.

The first factory for processing and manufacturing chocolates in India was started during the
world war-II at Bilimoria but due to tough competition from foreign products the company is
ceased and stopped its process and it made second attempt in 1936. But it faced failure as the
size of operation was economical. Finally it made third attempt to find its success to restart its
production.
Messrs Sathe Biscuit and chocolate co.ltd., Poona commenced production of cocoa powder on a
small scale and chocolate manufacture was taken up in 1941. Then the production gradually
increased. Later, Madhu Canning Factory Agra, East India Distilleries and Sugar Factories
Limited Madras started the production of chocolates.
With the machineries manufactured by five major companies of the cocoa processing and
chocolate manufacturing namely1) M/S Carle and Montanari Spa, Italy.
2) M/S 1-Aasted International APS, Denmark.
3) M/S Otto Hansel Gmbh, West Germany.
4) M/S Sollich Gmbh and Co. kg, West Germany.
5) M/S Sig Swiss Industrial Co, Switzerland.
Cadbury Ltd., which was so far importing cocoa and chocolates into the country, established
plant in Bombay for processing and packing of cocoa imported in bulk during the initial stage.
The new firms that have engaged into this field in India are Amul, which has completed 50 years
of service and the CAMPCO, which came up during the 80s. CAMPCO is one of the largest
factories in South Asia.
Cocoa is used as beverage and chocolate is mainly used as confectionary and to a small extent
also used as beverage. The market share of CAMPCO is 5-8%, the Cadburys market share is
70% and the Nestls market share is 15-20%. The penetration of chocolate in the country was
estimated at 5.5% in 1998. The penetration in urban India stood at while that in ruralIndia as a
mere 2.3%. Thus the consumption of chocolate is largely restricted to urban areas where too, the
penetration is relatively low.

During the last five years growth in chocolate in India has covered between 10% and 20%, with
average growth being at the range of 14-15%. Restricted to urban areas played in the segment
have attempted to accelerate growth by adding new consumers to the chocolate market. Although
the country with a culture of consuming and exchanging sweets, prepacked branded sweets are
yet not popular. The consumption pattern and purchase habits trend to favor local, freshly made
products. The ability of chocolate companies to enter this market could provide unprecedented
with may be tempering of income pyramid and introduction of low price packs.

COMPANY PROFILE
BACKGROUND AND INCEPTION OF THE COMPANY
ARECANUT is an important commercial crop in India and finds a place in all religious, social
and cultural functions in India. Cultivation of Arecanut is mostly confined to States of
Karnataka, Kerala and Assam, but the consumption is spread all over the country. India is
considered as the largest Arecanut producing country in the world.
The total acreage under cultivation is 264000 hectares and the annual production estimated at
313000 metric tones, with Karnataka and Kerala accounting for nearly 72 percent of total
production. Over six million people are engaged in arecanut cultivation, processing and trade.
More than 85 percent of the area under cultivation is made up of small and marginal holdings.
A sudden marketing crisis in the year 1970-71, when prices registered a marked fall which
caused considerable concern to the growers, was the genesis for the setting up of this Cooperative Venture (what popularly is called The CAMPCO). Growers had been thrown into
panic with the prices coming down by half of what was prevailing till 1970-71 season.
Various measures were thought of for organized marketing management and leaders among
growers sat together to find a way out. State Government of Karnataka, on the advice of an
Expert Committee, recommended organizing a Central Agency in the Public or Co-operative
sector. With the blessings and active support extended by the State Governments of Karnataka
and Kerala, the CAMPCO was registered on 11th July 1973 under sec.7 of the Karnataka Cooperative Societies Act read with sec.4(2)of the Multi State Co-operative Societies Act 1984.
Through perseverant efforts of far sighted, dedicated and resourceful leaders, with the
cooperation and assistance of equally dedicated growers under the guidance of the State
Governments of Karnataka and Kerala, this institution took giant strides forward and has turned
into a tower of strength to the areca growing community in the country.
The area of operation of this cooperative for procurement and processing of Arecanut and Cocoa
extends to the States of Karnataka and Kerala,but for the marketing activity, the area has been
extended to the whole country. Arecanut purchase operations were extended to Assam, Andaman
and Goa but in recent years purchase operations in Assam had to be closed due to disturbances.
4

Starting with its Head office at Mangalore in coastal Karnataka, the CAMPCO began with a
handful of procurement centers in Karnataka and Kerala. The Campco adopted a safe policy for
purchasing and marketing the commodity and maintaining standards in quality assiduously with
the dedicated cooperation of a network of diligent officers and workers. The society achieved
success by leaps and bounds,stood the brunt of changing trends,market recessions and
upheavals,glut in the market and even national calamities in the marketing field for more than
two and half decades. Confidence has gained among the growers for areca cultivation as an
economically viable and comfortable proposition.
The co-operative encouraged growers to take-up Cocoa cultivation as an inter crop in the latter
half of the 70's as a supplemental crop. This grew up to become a large scale operation with good
results. A sudden withdrawal by the buyers of Cocoa from the procurement operations due to
crash in the international market came as a shock to cultivators. Karnataka and Kerala
governments enthused at this stage the CAMPCO to enter on the scene to rescue the farmers
from distress.CAMPCO willingly took up the responsibility to enter the cocoa market and
performed a savior's role.As a strategy for survival in the International scene the CAMPCO
played a major role in establishing a name for Indian Cocoa, which hitherto had not been
achieved. It procured Cocoa Pods from growers and adopting scientific processing methods to
market standards,released dry cocoa beans matching in quality in the world market to that of
Ghana,Brazil and other leading Cocoa cultivating nations. With a view to creating a permanent
demand and a steady market for the beans,Campco established a Chocolate Manufacturing
factory at Kemminje village in Puttur Taluk in Dakshina Kannada District adopting foreign
technical collaboration in chocolate making.The factory was set up in 1986 at an initial
investment of RS.116.7million and a licensing capacity to produce 8800 metric tons
