environment will want its customers to come back for more.
Ice crem shopis selling ice cream. We are providing the product of
ice cream, as well as the service from the employees. Our product is
more appealing than our competitors because the toppings are
unlimited for just Rs. 130. Customers get charged for the size of their
bowls instead of the weight, so whatever they can fit in the bowl will
be the prize plus toppings. Also, customers can make their own ice

The owners are only targeting the metropolitan cities in the initial years
of the launch of the live ice-cream. The target of the owners for selling
the ice-cream in the first year is: 1000 kgs,
Second Year is 1500 kgs
Third Year is 2000 kgs.
So, if we assume that there are 1000 customers interested in eating Ice-
cream in the 1st year across Gujarat and if on an average the customers are
ready to pay Rs 130 for purchasing cup of Ice-cream.
For 2nd year –1500 customers* Rs. 130 (Price) = Rs. 1,95,000
For 3rd Year – 2000 customers* Rs. 130 (Price) = Rs. 2,60,000
+ GST@18% = Rs. 15
TARGET CUSTOMERS:
The main target market for ice cream is children, Young and families.
Thirty four percent (est) of such households consume four or more quarts
of ice cream per month, which is significantly higher than the 20% of the
family units without children. Preferences vary according to the age and
gender of the ice cream consumer2. At the moment, the ice cream industry
is driven by children but current demographic data indicates a decline in
the youth population over the next few years. This might push ice cream
retailers and producers to attract a new age group, while trying to retain
their current younger clients. Young children are also more adventurous
in their choices and eat a wider selection if ice cream flavors and frozen
desserts. African American households consume a larger range of products
and also more servings over a 30-day period than the average Indian
household. Teenage girls tend to choose healthier products labeled as low-
fat, mainly among the frozen yogurt products, while teenage boys still
prefer the premium ice cream range. Ice cream preferences normally
cement during the transition towards adulthood, and adults tend to be
faithful to their favorites.
