5 Cs Analysis
Company
Nestle Pakistan is a renowned food processing company which is a subsidiary of
Switzerland based Nestle S.A., worlds largest food company in terms of revenues. The
portfolio of Nestles products is diverse and it contains a vast array of dairy products
including yogurts, powered and liquid milk, as well as coffee, frozen good, snacks,
confectionery, etc. The sheer size of Nestles product range can be judged from the fact
that it has established more than 30 of its own sub-brands and it produces well over
8,000 different products. Nestle has presence in 194 countries and it has more than 400
factories which employ more than 300,000 people. In terms of technology, Nestle
spends well over $2 billion annually on research and development (R&D) activities.
Nestle Actiplus is a low fat yogurt and contains probiotics which make the digestive
system strong. It is manufactured and distributed in.
Competitors
Given the product niche, extent of competition for Nestle Actiplus depends on the
preferences of consumers. What distinguishes Nestle Actiplus from other brands of
yogurt manufactured by Nestle Pakistan and other food processing companies is its low
fat content and probiotics. Per se, there is no direct substitute of Nestle Actiplus
currently available. However, if consumers are, by and large, indifferent between a
healthy brand of yogurt in the form of Nestle Acitplus and other different varieties of
branded and non-branded yogurt, then the extent of competition confronting Nestle
Actiplus is huge and given its price-tag and level of saturation in the market, Nestle
Actiplus is likely to struggle to gain a sizeable share of the yogurt market.
Customers
By launching a brand of yogurt which is low on fat and contains probiotics, Nestle
Pakistan has made a deliberate attempt to capture the segment of the market which
comprises of health conscious people who prefer to keep their diet in check. Although

awareness about the importance of consuming a healthy diet which does not contain
fattening ingredients or substances which may otherwise be harmful has increased
significantly over time, proportion of people who are health conscious to a considerable
extent is fairly low. Also, given the price-tag attached to it, Nestle Actiplus, if ever, is only
going to become part of regular diet of upper-middle and upper class consumers, so
specifically in terms of volume, Nestle Actiplus is not likely to attract hordes of clients.
Collaborators
Nestle S.A., the parent body of Nestle Pakistan, is primarily responsible for undertaking
product R&D work with some of the R&D tasks delegated to Nestle Pakistan and
performed locally. R&D work on probiotics and their subsequent use in yogurt was
made possible internally by Nestle. Nestle has an independent distribution network
which is spread across Pakistan. Supplies of dairy raw material are received from a set
of selected dairy farms which have been approved by Nestle Pakistan after meeting its
stringent quality tests.
Climate
In terms of dairy products, recently, a few brands have sprung up which aim to give
Nestle a tough competition in its bid for expanding its market share. Of these brands,
Engro foods is a notable mention. So in terms of competition, Nestle is expected to face
a lot more of it in the future. In terms of economic situation, Pakistan economy has
stabilized fairly of late and with low inflation and other key macroeconomic indicators
showing promise, lack of any improvement in the energy crisis is the only worrying bit
for Neslte. Also, with an increasing awareness amongst the masses regarding the
importance of healthy diet, Nestle is likely of expand its market share with more people
likely to prefer branded products, particularly dairy items, over sub-standard and nonbranded products openly available in markets.
