- 27. Amul pizzas • The brand with the hope to double its cheese sales through its recent foray into the marketing of vegetable pizzas introduced amul pizzas. • Marketing analysts say that Amul's pizza marketing strategy is unique because it aims at boosting sales of an `elite' product (cheese) by pushing down prices of another `elite' product (pizza).

Amul chocolates- marketshare of roughly 10 per cent compared with 70 per cent share of the market leader, Cadbury. • The company has maintained a chocolate portfolio for more than 20 years, the dairy products major never posed a threat to market leaders such as Cadbury and Nestle. • Amul is reworking its strategy in the chocolate category to push its chocolate product sales.

- 30. Sagar Amul ghee-20 per cent share in the ghee market • Amul has decided to restrict the brand in Gujarat and Maharashtra.Its a dominant player here and uses defence strategy to safeguard its position.Ghee is already dominated by local co- operative brands and it will continue with Sagar ghee as a regional brand. With the baseline `Flavour of Festivals', Sagar Ghee is promoted before every festival in both these States to build demand for the brand. • Amul is trying to promote Sagar on the value for money platform. In fact, in the past, the brand used cartoons from R.K. Laxman to drive home the image of a brand for the common man. Today, however, the brand is being advertised based on images from festivals
- 31. Sagar skimmed milk powder-40 per cent share • Amul’s milk powder continues to enjoy a national presence although it enjoys a strong franchise in the North-Eastern, Eastern and parts of the Southern markets. • The almost 40-year-old brand of Sagar has also been extended to a tea and coffee whitener and has been made available nationally. • Amul also has the Amulya brand of dairy whiteners, which is at a premium to the Sagar brand by almost 25 per cent. Hence the brand is targeting 2 segments together with it’s brands of milk power, amulya & sagar. Thus creating barriers by segmentation for entry of competitors.
- 32. Sagar Amulspray-baby milk powder • Nestle is the market leader in the segment. This is a category where brand loyalties are very strong as mothers want the best for their babies. Heinz is the only other significant competitor to Nestle in this segment. Nestle's Cerelac and Nestum together have around 80% market share and Heinz's Farex has close to 18% share. • In infant formula also Nestle's Lactogen formula and Lactogen standard formula are the leading brands with around 75% market share. Other brands are Heinz's Lactodex Farex, Wockhardt's Raptakos, and Amul's Amulspray which occupy the rest of the market. • The market for milk powder is already saturated and there is no need to expand the range is what has been decided by Amul. This ozone is not its core competency.
- 33. Expansion to foreignshores • Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation had signed an agreement with Wal-Mart to stock its shelves with products under its Amul brand name. Amul processed cheese, pure ghee, Shrikhand, Nutramul, Amul's Mithaee Gulab Jamuns are few of the products marketed in the US markets. • 50 per cent of Americans being medically obese, and if Amul is really looking to capture the hearts of the second- and third- generation Indians, offering low-fat versions of its brands, would make a lot of commercial sense. • Hence targeting the large Indian community in the US markets with its niche products like mithai, packaged ready to eat foods market it can definitely expand its market to a large extent.
