Competitive Comparison
KFC has many competitors is Multan. It has many similarities as well as differentiations
from its competitors.
Similarities:
Fast Food.
Catering.
Home Delivery.
Play area for children.
KFC have many advantages over its leading competitors:
Its secret recipe.
Global presence.
Friendly staff.
Strong brand image.
Suppliers as they are also renowned ones.
And all its key resources and value propositions are also considered as advantages.
Competative Analysis
KFC have some key resources by which they have competitive edge over their
competitors that are briefly described as follows:
Perceived Value:
What customers perceive about KFC products and services is the major
resource of them.
It is because the value perceived by customers is positive and they think
they are getting maximum return of what they are paying.
Channels:
Suppliers:
KFC has very well renowned companies as their suppliers which are K&Ns
Pepsi co, Hilal and Nescafe.
These companies itself have image in market so they will be considered as
key resource of KFC.
Trained Staff:
25 High Technology:
25 Technology is the very important factor for the success of any organization
in today’s world.
KFC possess advanced technology in their cooking utensils, making of
packaging material, services and for their office work even.
This advancement in technology is getting them to lead in market every
time so it is considered as a key resource.
Strength
2 For the current Pakistani market for fast food, it is not difficult for a fast food
restaurant to enter the market. However, it would be extremely difficult to
take over already running major fast food chains' dominancy in Pakistan or
even make a significant amount of profit. While there are enough people in
urban Pakistan for any restaurant to survive, KFC holds the first-mover advantage
into the 'non-veg food specialty food segment' that gives them free
reputation. Customers, especially children who are used to going to KFC as a
treat or reward from their parents or grandparents, are not going to want to go
to other restaurants they’ve never heard of. The brand name is
already established. Also, there is already a large variety in the numerous
western-style dining places in Pakistan, such as McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, Domino's
and Subway, and any new fast-food entrants would just be presenting
something very similar to what’s already there. While small Neighborhood
restaurants generally have low barriers to entry, these are the bar riers to
entry for similar restaurant businesses to enter the fast -food chain market.
Weakness
is not going tolower its price because the cost of losing one customer is not very
great. The supplierslike the buyers, have very little bargaining power.In terms of
food, KFC, upon its move into Pakistan, urged many of its U.S. suppliers to
alsoe x t e n d branches into Pakistan. KFC also began helping local
suppliers by g i v i n g t h e m technological support to improve their
products. This is a brilliant strategy because thesupplies that KFC would
otherwise need to import from theU.S. can now be obtained domestically, and
if the U.S. suppliers decide to raise their prices,KFC can easily switch to the
local suppliers. This gives us a brilliant strategy.With this strategy, KFC created
competition among its suppliers, lowering the supplier bargaining power. In terms
of human resources, labor cost is extremely low because the supply of non-
skilled workers great exceeds the demand for them. With so little buyer and
supplier bargaining powers, KFC is able to have a very tight control over its
prices and expenditures.
Oppurtunities
As mentioned above, there are a few major competitors in the fast-food industry
in Pakistan for KFC, namely McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, Domino's and Subway. The
substitute p r o d u c t s , in this case, would be burgers, pizza, and
sandwiches. Though they are competitors, their primary products
d i f f e r g r e a t l y f r o m e a c h o t h e r , i n t h a t t h e y s e l l , chicken, burgers and
fries, pizzas, and sandwiches, respectively. Traditional Pakistani dining, home-
cooked meals, and grocery stores with ready -to-eat foods are also
substitutes, as families could choose any one of these over fast food for
a meal. These substitutes are definitely considered healthy as compared to
the fast food chains. Even foods from street vendors count as substitute goods.
While other fast foods serve as substitute to KFC, they can also serve as
complements for fast foods as a whole. If the general price of fast foods goes up,
KFC’s price rises as well, a n d t h e s a m e c a n b e s a i d o f t h e q u a n t i t y s o l d
of these products, which make them complements to each other. KFC

5 a l s o s e t s u p s t o r e s l o c a t e d n e a r p o p u l a r t o u r i s t attractions, so tickets
to these tourist spots are also complementary goods because the more people
tour these attractions, the more customers KFC will get.
Weakness
Unlike what one would expect,KFC has little rivalry with similar fast-food chains
in Pakistan. The primary reason is that their core products are different, as in
they sell differentkinds of fast foods with very different tastes and styles. For
example, if KFC raised its price for chicken by a small amount, Pakistani chicken
lovers who may not be as acceptingto pizzas (many Pakistani people strongly
dislike the taste of cheese) are not going to switch to Pizza Hut just because
the price for KFC increased. In addition to that, theserestaurants have such
different target customers that the fluctuation of price for onerestaurant is not
going to affect the others. For example, a full meal at KFC ranges about Rs. 400,
whereas a full meal at Pizza Hut can cost over Rs. 1000. The drastic difference
in price assures no price competition between these restaurants.
8 Marketing Strategy
8 Also, the area is popular amongst tourists who come to see Multan’s
cantonment area, cantonment garden and lake which is not so far, which
will be most beneficial.
We will target progressive and generally well-educated and affluent
consumers who are interested in high quality brownies experience and are
dissatisfied with the limited selection and lack of personal service found in
grocery store bakeries and neighborhood cafes and coffee shops.
1 Market Positioning
The people which are their customer and the physical evidence, the
environment customers get in the KFC are the focus that built KFC’s image
in the customer mind that is why they are always trying to bring positive
changes in the environment so that every time their customer enter the
KFC, can feel the difference.
They think that trough continuous efforts they have developed such a brand
image in their customer’s minds that their customers have become brand
loyal.
I order words they have got brand equity.
The products are bit high priced according the market segment and it is
also comparable to the standard of their product. In the cost based method
we include the variable and fixed cost.
Promotion
1 They used advertisement for promotion that is any paid form of non -
personal presentation and promotion of ideas, goods, or services by an
identified sponsor.
KFC introduce the new products to the customers using many kind of
advertising. They inform the customers about the new products, what kind
of product, the price, its availability etc.
With the advertisement, KFC persuade their customers to buy the prod ucts.
In order to do that, KFC will make a good and attractive advertisement. So,
their customer will attract to buy the products.
Using the good advertising will make the customers remember about the
products. And certainly, they will come again to buy the products.
There are some Media Types that KFC use for their advertising:
Newspaper
Radio
Magazine
Internet
Outdoor
4 Floating Trucks:
In House Publicity:
By Phone:
KFC Pakistan stays in Touch with their potential customers by using their
database.
They informed their potential customers about the new products and
packages by phone because they have their phone numbers in there
database.
Internet:
All most all the KFC’s well developed franchises have their own websites
through which they advertise their business very well, but they also use
other websites for advertising purposes like hotmail, yahoo, google, etc.
E-mail marketing techniques are used by KFC to promote their business.
They use their own database to send e-mails to their value added customers
to informed them about new products, packages, discounts, etc and uses
third parties to promote their business through e-mail marketing.
Media Coverage:
KFC Pakistan also uses common ways for advertising like newspapers, cable
TV networks, a big road side boards, etc.

their sustainability.
18 As of my last knowledge update, KFC was one of the leading fast-food chains globally,
with thousands of restaurants operating in over 140 countries. It was part of Yum!
Brands, Inc., which is one of the world's largest restaurant companies. Yum! Brands
28 also owns other well-known brands such as Pizza Hut and Taco Bell.

Strategic Alliances
10 1. Yum Brands has been involved in several mergers and acquisitions over the past three
years. The majority of Yum’s activities have revolved around acquiring either branded
10 restaurants (such as acquiring 68 KFC restaurants) or acquiring separate entities, such
as Long John Silver’s, A&W All-American Food Restaurants and Little Sheep Group Ltd.
These acquisitions resulted in a consolidation of competitors. Some of this consolidation
24 has been successful; however Long John Silver’s and A&W All-American Food Restaurants
were not. These were not successful because Yum overpaid for these brands and they
did not properly align with Yum’s strategy of operating global brands. The failure of A&W
and Long John Silvers was a result of poor strategy and failure to grow in the domestic
market, as those brands did not achieve the projected growth numbers.
10 Yum Brands has entered several strategic alliances in the past three years.
One in particular that stands out is its alliance with Sinopec (China Petroleum and
21 Chemical Corporation). Sinopec is the largest firm in China by revenue, and operates over
13 30,000 gas stations in China. The agreement was to open Pizza Hut and KFC restaurants
in Sinopec gas stations, providing very big growth opportunities for both firms. Yum
brands chose to get into this alliance because it provided a significant impact on the
development and strategic growth of their business. As quoted from their strategic
alliance announcement, “Through the complementary advantages of both companies, the
combination of the strength will offer better service for customers, promote both brands,
generate more economic returns, and improve their capabilities for sustainable
development.” Yum’s success in China made the alliance with Sinopec a good fit, and its
well-established supply chain would enable it to reach the multiple locations in inland
China.

Critical analysis
7 The company KFC is recognized as a famous and leading food manufacturing company
in the world over 130 from its establishment. It deals with the business of food and
Agriculture raw material. These two parts are very important and are indispensable part
of each community in the world. At present time the company has been enjoying the
privilege of being world’s largest and diversified company in the sector of food and
agriculture Raw materials and it possesses about 500 factories all over the world in 80
countries.
Nestle has it’s headquarter in Switzerland, Vevey and it was founded in 1866 by Sir He nri
Nestle and at present this has been recognized as the biggest beverages and food company.
At the end of the year 2004 were 87 bn. this had net profit of 6.7 bn. The company has
around 247,000 employees.
KFC introduced a healthier option to its menu with grilled chicken, aiming to attract
health-conscious consumers. However, this product faced challenges in consistency,
taste, and preparation time, which led to customer dissatisfaction and a decline in
demand.
“N’rish” milk powder at lower prices, it also has capability to decrease the market share
of “NIDO”. So in long run, if Nestle do not respond to such competit ors, they may
create a lot of problems in other products also.
Short-fall of marketing
3 6.1. Dependent on the outside Milkmen
Raw material is basic input for every organization and milk is core raw material of Nestle
for which it is dependent on the outside Milkmen. Nestle has no single its own dairy form
which provide high quality milk to the firm.

7. Conclusion
The period of my internship with such esteem organization like Nestle Pakistan was a
great delight for me who enhanced my knowledge up to latest trends and bridged the gap
between theoretical knowledge and practical approaches being implemented in the
industry. .
The learning environment was superb, just like an ocean where you come, take what you
want but there is no deficiency in that ocean. Moreover, different internal systems that
NESTLE has evolved like NCE (Nestle Continuous Excellence), TPM (Total Performance
Management), NQMS (Nestle Quality Management System), NSMS (Nestle Safety
Management System) and NGMP(Nestle Good Manufacturing Practices) etc. are unique
& assures the safety of worker & best quality food products.
8. Recommendations
3 Internship at Nestlé was really a wonderful experience for me. It was a short journey full
of commitment, passion, encouragement and hard work. I was very lucky that was I
worked in Milk Collection & Dairy Development (MCDD) department. I came across in
the company of amazing people who taught me many things that would be a great help in
professional and daily life. They took care of each and every intern so well and they
helped me with each and every query I had and helped me to understand the various
issues.
In MCDD, everybody makes sure that the internes are doing well, I was given tasks
clearly and sometimes with a deadline to submit an assignment. That thing helped me to
3 do my work in time. Also, they make sure the punctuality of the employees as well as of
the internees.
Working in such a great environment with a lot of people have made me much more
confident. They made me believe in myself. Reading of scenarios and generating various
