A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi

RECOMMENDATION
Monginis can contract a consultancy which will recruit, train and pay to csp which will create a winwin situation for both Monginis and csp as monginis can show take payment from shop owners and pay it to consultancy which will give a tax benefit and CSP will have salary slip and proper distribution of payments Training like Product knowledge, personality development, computer training and English speaking will be enriching the quality and give them a feeling of belongingness to a brand like Monginis I-card and name plates should be provided to CSP Because of plastic carry bag CSP are facing lot many problems, also some very old CSP who have worked for more than ten years are unhappy with company because people in company do not respond to any compliant. Most of the customer oppose to pay for plastic bags, Shop owners and customers are also facing problems due to this issue Customer who are loyal to monginis are expecting to bring new flavors of cake especially in fruits, also snacks should be innovated. Customers are satisfied with ambience of shop giving an average of 3.86 out of 5 and very happy with staff giving an average rating of 4.13 out of 5 Cheese cake and blue berry flavor cake should be added in menu as mo0st of the customers demand for the same Monginis can add upon some more variety in vegetarian and jain food that will be excepted readily a market demands it
CONCLUSION
This is best time for monginis to launch new variety of products there exist a strong demand in market for fruit flavor cakes which can be easily recognized by reading comments of customer in opens ended questions of questionnaire Some steps must be taken to solve plastic bag problems as it is creating embarrassing situation for sales persons to ask for charge of plastic carry bag. Monginis can use this opportunity to declare as a green supportive brand like Pepsi and others and communicate this message well by providing eco friendly bags. Monginis over a period of time has evolved as price leader of bakery industry i.e. any deflection in their pricing ultimately leads increase or decrease in pricing in both the ends of elite and local bakery company, hence it has a leverage of increasing price up to certain extend. Customer sales person stands to be the last hand to serve customer so their interface is of extreme importance, hence monginis should take care of their recruitment and training also a keen attention should be given to their compensation There exists a demand for promotion of website of monginis as most of customers are not aware of online purchase of cake.
