CHAPTER 1
RESEARCH DESIGN
INTRODUCTION

Industries in India are a major contributor in India's economy. India is one of the
leading industrialised nations in the world. It is due to the development of Indian
industries that India has become a developing nation from an under-developed nation.
The industrial sector is considered the backbone of any economy. Industries can be
classified into two main types on the basis of their structure. They are manufacturing
industry, which includes heavy and light industries, and small scale industry and
cottage industries.

As we learned how industries were classified according to raw material, size, and
ownership. Here we will learn the distribution of some major industries, which are iron
and steel industry and textile industry are the oldest industries that have had their role in
Indian industrialization. Information technology is an emerging industry. Iron and steel
industries have their firm hold in countries like Germany, USA, China, Japan, and
Russia. While textile industries are flourishing in India, Hong Kong, and South Korea.
The new emerging information technology has their concentration in Silicon Valley of
California and Bangalore of India. An industrial society is a society driven by the use
of technology to enable mass production, supporting a large population with a high
capacity for division of labour. Today, industry is an important part of most societies
and nations. A government must have some kind of industrial policy, regulating
industrial placement, industrial pollution, financing and industrial labor.

Fourth, there are manufacturers of information-processing devices that require


research and sophisticated decision-making. These products are vital to information-
processing activities of above mentioned industries. The products include computers
of various levels and many other microelectronic devices, as well as software
programs. Printing and copying machines, measurement and recording devices of
various kinds, electronic or otherwise, are also in this category. The roles of these
tools are to automate certain information-processing activities. The use of some of
these tools may be very simple (as in the case of some printing), and the processing
done by the tools may be very simple (as in copying and some calculations) rather
than intellectual and sophisticated. In other words, the specialization of these
industries in an economy is neither production of information nor sophisticated
decision-making. Instead, this segment serves as an infrastructure for those activities,
making production of information and decision-making services will be a lot less
efficient.
2

In addition, these industries tend to be "high-tech" or research intensive - trying to


find more efficient ways to boost efficiency of information production and
sophisticated decision-making. For example, the function of a standard calculator is
quite simple and it is easy to how to use it. However, manufacturing a well-
functioning standard calculator takes a lot of processes, far more than the task of
calculation performed by the users.

Fifth, there are very research-intensive industries that do not serve as infrastructure to
information-production or sophisticated decision-making. Pharmaceutical, food-
processing, some apparel design, and some other "high-tech" industries belong to this
type. These products are not exclusively for information production or sophisticated
decision-making, although many are helpful. Some services, such as medical
examination are in this category as well. One can say these industries involve a great
deal of sophisticated decision-making, although that part is combined with
manufacturing or "non-informational" activities.

Finally, there are industries that are not research intensive, but serve as infrastructure
for information production and sophisticated decision-making. Manufacturing of
office furniture would be a good example, although it sometimes involves research in
ergonomics and development of new materials.

As stated above, this list of candidates for information industries is not a definitive
way of organizing differences that researchers may pay attention to when they define
the term. Among the difficulties is, for example, the position of advertising industry.

Information industries are considered important for several reasons. Even among the
experts who think industries are important, disagreements may exist regarding which
reason to accept and which to reject.

First, an information industry is a rapidly growing part of economy. The demand for
information goods and services from consumers is increasing. In case of consumers,
media including music and motion picture, personal computers, video game-related
industries, are among the information industries. In case of businesses, information
industries include computer programming, system design, so-called FIRE (finance,
insurance, and real estate) industries, telecommunications, and others. When demand
for these industries are growing nationally or internationally, that creates an
opportunity for an urban, regional, or national economy to grow rapidly by
specializing on these sectors.

Second, information industries are considered to boost innovation and productivity of


other industries. An economy with a strong information industry might be a more
competitive one than others, other factors being equal.

3
Third, some believe that the effect of the changing economic structure (or
composition of industries within an economy) is related to the broader social change.

As information becomes the central part of our economic activities we evolve into an
"information society", with an increased role of mass media, digital technologies, and
other mediated information in our daily life, leisure activities, social life, work,
politics, education, art, and many other aspects of society.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

This study entitled “To know the knowledge of the Industrial business”, in the
business context, has emerged as a form of sustainability governance with advantages
to the economic, environment and social progress. “ STUDY REPORT ON
INDUSTRIAL VISIT”.

SCOPE OF THE STUDY


 For students pursuing professional education courses like marketing, finance,
operations, supply chain, etc., industrial visits help them gain hands-on
experience of how industry operations are executed.
 Industry visits bridge the gap between theoretical training and practical
learning in a real-life environment.
 Industry visits provide opportunity for active/interactive learning experiences
in-class as well outside the classroom environment
 With industry visits, students are able to better identify their prospective areas
of work in the overall organizational function.
 Industry visits help enhance interpersonal skills and communication
techniques.
 Students become more aware of industry practices and regulations during
industry visits.
 Industry visits broaden the outlook of students with exposure to different
workforces from different industries.

4
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
 The objective of an industrial visit is to provide us an insight regarding internal
working of companies
 We understand that theoretical knowledge is not enough for a successful
professional career.
 With an aim to go beyond academics, industrial visit provides students a
practical perspective of the work place.
 It provided us with an opportunity to learn practically through interaction,
working methods and employment practices.
 It gives us an exposure to current work practices as opposed to possibly
theoretical knowledge being taught at college.
 Industrial visits provide an excellent opportunity to interact with industries and
know more about industrial environment.
 Industrial visits are arranged by colleges for us with an objective of providing us
an opportunity to explore different sectors like IT, Manufacturing, services,
finance and marketing.
 Industrial visit helps to combine theoretical knowledge with practical
knowledge.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY


Industrial visits are a complete package which aims at widening the knowledge of
students. It is not just an outing organized by school/college authorities for fun. These
visits are related to your curriculum, so you get to learn things which are beneficial to
you in the future. They are totally educational in nature with rich learning experience.
Industrial visits generate an excitement among students as they get a chance to learn
something outside the confines of their school/college walls. Thus, it adds to a source
of entertainment as well.

An industrial visit is your first-hand experience to anything related to your career. It


helps you gain an active learning experience. Schools and colleges cannot afford to
show you the real methodologies of companies. Therefore, industrial visits are a great
way to gain as much as practical and technical knowledge on your area of interest. Be
it challenges involved in a particular area of interest or nuances to master the field or
scope, everything is covered in an industrial visit. The gap between theoretical
learning and practical exposure is actually bridged by industrial visits.

5
The importance of industrial visits is such that it has been made mandatory in many
institutions. Also, students are always curious about what kind of work they would be
doing after entering their favorite industry. Through industrial visits, they can clarify
their doubts and silence their curiosities. They can communicate with people and
organizations to get a clear idea of their dream job. 

METHODOLOGY OF RESEARCH
The methodology of this study has two types: primary and secondary data. In order to
achieve the objectives of the study, it is necessary to collect information because
information is the heart of any study and is necessary for decision making.

LIMITATION OF THE STUDY


 The biggest disadvantage of industries is that it leads to increase in pollution as
many units emit poisonous gases which over the years have turned out to be the
major cause behind global warming.
 The biggest disadvantage of industries is that it leads to increase in pollution as
many units emit poisonous gases which over the years have turned out to be the
major cause behind global warming.
 Since industries tend to attract many people it leads to problem urbanization
where many people from rural areas shift to urban areas leading to urbanization
problems like lack of housing, congestion, lack of green space, health related
problems and so on.
 It sometimes creates monopolies which ultimately lead to exploitation of
consumers of the country and the huge gap between the rich and poor is also
attributed to the industries.
 During the visit some of them would not be able to note down the points which
are be explained.

 Some of them would not been visited the some of the departments in the
industry.

 If the market is vast, that is, demand for the goods is large, the scale of
production can be increased.

 If the market of an article is limited, its scale of production cannot be increased

 If no invention of machine has been made for the production of an article and it is
being prepared with the help of ordinary tools, large scale production will not be
possible.
6

 The scale of production is determined by the extent of scientific development in


industry. The scale of production is raised with the scientific development.

 If the production of an article needs raw material which is available in small


quantity or the supply of which is uncertain, production will not be possible on
large scale.

 Large scale production is possible only if labor and capital are available in
abundance and at moderate rates.

 If the market is vast, that is, demand for the goods is large; the scale of
production can be increased. If the market of an article is limited, its scale of
production cannot be increased.

CHAPTER 2
INTRODUCTION & OVERVIEW
INDTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
Industrial visit has its own importance in a career of a student who is pursuing a
professional degree. It is considered as a part of college curriculum. The objective of
an industrial visit is to provide us an insight regarding internal working of companies.
We understand that theoretical knowledge is not enough for a successful professional
career. With an aim to go beyond academics, industrial visit provides students a
practical perspective of the work place. It provided us with an opportunity to learn
practically through interaction, working methods and employment practices. It gives
us an exposure to current work practices as opposed to possibly theoretical knowledge
being taught at college.

Industrial visits provide an excellent opportunity to interact with industries and know
more about industrial environment. Industrial visits are arranged by colleges for us
with an objective of providing us an opportunity to explore different sectors like IT,
Manufacturing, services, finance and marketing. Industrial visit helps to combine
theoretical knowledge with practical knowledge. Industrial realities are opened to the
students through industrial visits. Industrial visit has its own importance in a career of
a student who is pursuing a professional degree. It is considered as a part of college
curriculum and objectives of industrial visit is to provide students an insight regarding
internal working of companies.

We know, theoretical knowledge is not enough for making a good professional career.
With an aim to go beyond academics, industrial visit provides student a practical
perspective on the world of work. It gave an insight of how a business can be started
and what the challenges are come across while you run your own business. It gave a
deep insight on idea generation and shared her experiences. This interaction gave the
students an exposure to current work practices as opposed to possibly theoretical
knowledge being taught at college.

Industrial visits provide an excellent opportunity for the students to interact with
industries and know more about industrial environment.” Industrial visits for the
students with an objective of providing them functional opportunity in different
sectors which also helps to combine theoretical knowledge with industrial knowledge.
Industrial realities are opened to the students through industrial visits. “Industrial visit
is considered as one of the tactical methods of teaching. The main reason behind this,
it lets student to know things practically through interaction, working methods and
employment practices. Moreover, it gives exposure from academic point of view.
Main aim industrial visit is to provide an exposure to students about practical working
environment. They also provide students a good opportunity to gain full awareness
about industrial practices.”

Industrial visit has its own importance in a career of a student who is pursuing a
professional degree. It is considered as a part of college curriculum. The objective of

of providing them an opportunity to explore different sectors like IT, Manufacturing,
services, finance and marketing. Industrial visit helps to combine theoretical
knowledge with practical knowledge. Industrial realities are opened to the students
through industrial visits.

We have visited about 8 industries and have learned a myriad of things during the
industrial visit. We also had a lot of fun in the visit. The companies we visited are:

o KOMUL
o MC DONALDS
o ANCHOR
o KALINGA
o ADORE
o UNIMAX
o PEPSI
o ULTRA TECH CEMENT

Educational visits form the core of our efforts to give the students maximum technical
knowledge. These visits help the students to go for the right careers. Technical
education without being face to face to the actual activity places is never going to be
fruitful. Every year we develop a series of extraordinary pre-planned group tours for
students from fresher’s to rising seniors. It provides opportunities to students to
discover new things for themselves, through participation in hands-on activities. In
the first place, these study tours mark a refreshing break from the routine and go
‘beyond bookish.’ Travels and visits are not just the seeing of sights; they trigger
experiential learning that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living. Thus
happens real education as Francis Bacon opined, “Travel, in young sort, is a part of
education, in the elderly, a part of experience.”
10

Industrial visits are efforts to bridge the gap between theory and practical. It has many
benefits for the students in various aspects. It help students gain first-hand
information regarding functioning of the industry. It provides opportunities to plan
organize and engage in active learning experiences both inside and outside the
classroom. It is mandatory in various Indian universities hence it also full fills certain
curriculum requirements. Industrial visit is a part of the education process, during
which students visit companies and get insight of on the internal working environment
of the company. The industrial visit also provides an insight on how companies work
and also useful information related to the practical aspects of the course which cannot
be visualized in lectures. We visited 8 industries each and every industry was
introduced separately with their mission, vision, objectives, products etc.

Industrial visit is a part of professional (mostly engineering / MBA /


Diploma) courses, during which students visit companies and get insight of on the
internal working environment of the company. Industry visits sensitize students to the
practical challenges that organizations face in the business world. Industrial visits also
give greater clarity about various management concepts for students as they can
practically see how these concepts are put into action. Visits to manufacturing firms
are useful for students. To understand the nuances and realities of the shop floor, this
in itself is a rare exposure. By visiting the shop floor they get to understand the risky
conditions in which workers work, the people management challenges involved in
managing workers apart from getting hands-on technical knowledge.

Having a successful career in one’s respective field of study has become a great
challenge for today’s students. Specifically, for the one who is in Research,
Engineering and even Management studies. Few decades ago, being a perfectionist in
theoretical studies was sufficient to get placed in industries and gain experience in the
industry. Today the scenario has changed. In the time span of graduate school, the
practical knowledge of industry is required for a successful career.

We see many examples around us, where a person with a technical education
background has his career moving forward in some non-technical stream. Well, not
really many of them would like to be one such example until he has a passion towards
his work. One of the common or obvious reasons would be, lacking the capability to
compete and cope up with their study-related, industrial requirement standards. For a
mechanical or electrical engineering graduate, getting into a core industry or company
is really a hard task because of constant advancements in technology. The rate of
rapid growth in technology is such that, by the time a student finishes his course, the
technology that he studied would be an older one.

Research says that, there is a huge gap between today’s educational system and
industrial requirements. College outcomes do not reach the expectations of a
company. The only way to bridge the gap is connecting students with the industries so
that students will be able to know the needs of the industry and groom themselves
accordingly. And, to do so, Industrial visits to students is a pathway.
11

The industrial visit also provides an insight on how companies work and also useful
information related to the practical aspects of the course which cannot be visualized in
lectures. With an aim to go beyond academics, these visits are arranged to develop the
insights of the students – attaining practical knowledge and their theoretical
applications thereof.

Industrial visit is considered as one of the most tactical methods of teaching. The
main reason behind this – it lets students to know things practically through
interaction, working methods and employment practices. Moreover, it gives exposure
from academic point of view and provides exposure to practical
working environment, increases practical awareness of various Industrial sectors;
acquaint students with Interesting facts and breath-taking technologies. In addition to
industrial exposure and knowledge, this will increase the internship and placement
opportunities.

Not only students from engineering field opt for Industrial visits but Management
studies students too should have the knowledge of this. For Management students, the
benefits of this program are many. Not only are the students initiated into the
industrial world as managers but are also made aware of the practical limitations
posed by real-life situations. In addition, the students also benefit in the following
ways. They get an opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge about the field of their
interest, helping them make the correct career choice in future. Interfacing with the
industry gives them a chance to build networks and hone their business
communication skills. The program enables the students to apply their classroom
learning to a real-life situation while being mentored by a variety of industry experts.

QUALITY ASSURANCE

Considering the health of consumers and as per FSSAI rules, Kolar


Chikkaballapura Co-Operative Milk Union is striving to provide quality milk and
milk products to consumers. The Union procures an average of 10.7 lakh kgs milk on
a daily basis, collected from 1799 DCS. The quality analysis of this enormous
quantity of milk requires analyzing and testing at various levels, like MPCs, BMC,
CC, and at dairy level before it is taken for processing. The quality of milk is
maintained by using modern technology and various testing mechanisms. The Union
also has a laboratory with the required facilities for the analysis of milk and products,
and ingredients as per the procedures. The laboratory is also equipped with packing
materials used for milk and milk products. The Union assures that it will comply with
GMP & GHP practices relevant to the Industry at different levels of processing, which
enables us them to have a significant quality management system. The quality and
efficiency of the equipment and machines are of the highest standards. The
cleanliness and sterility of the milk, products, equipment and machinery, and plant are
the most prior concerns of the Union. Under Clean Milk Production Program Union
128 Bulk Milk Coolers and other advanced machinery and equipment have been
procured. The dairy along with 3 Chilling Centers has obtained certification for  ISO-
22000.

SAMPLING & TESTING OF MILK


After thorough mixing a sample of the entire batch of milk is taken for analysis and
testing. The following tests are carried out on the sample of milk taken:

PLATFORM TESTS:

 Organoleptic Test

This is the most basic test for milk at the stage of receiving at the dairy. The
human organs, like the nose, tongue, and eyes, are used to check for any
difference in the color of milk, presence of extraneous matter, foul or abnormal
smell or flavor.

 Clot on Boiling

This is an expeditious test to determine the feasibility and suitability of the milk
for processing. If the milk clots on the sides of the test tube or at the bottom, it
indicates poor keeping quality. Such milk will not withstand pasteurization, when
milk is heated to 72.6`C and held at that temperature for 15 seconds.

22

 Sediment Test

Sediment test is used as a quantitative measure of indicating the cleanliness of


milk with respect to invisible dirt and dust particles in milk. Filter cards and
wool is used to remove such dirt and particles.

 Alcohol Test

This test is carried out for quick assessment of stability of milk for advanced
heat processing, particularly for condensation and sterilization. The test helps
detect abnormal milk such as colostrums, late lactation milk, milk from animals
suffering from mastitis and also milk in which the mineral balance has been
disturbed.

 Acidity

Although titratable acidity is not a true measure of lactic acid present in the
milk, it reflects the acidity produced in the milk as a outcome of bacterial
activity. Hence, titratable acidity is employed to ascertain the keeping quality
and suitability of milk for heat processing.

 Determination of fat

The commercial value of milk is mainly based on its fat content. Butyrometer
methods are employed for the rapid and routine determination of fat in milk.
The method depends on the liberation of fat by the action of sulphuric acid on
milk in the butyrometer which are then centrifuged to aid the separation of fat.

 Estimation of SNF

Gravimetric method is the standard method of estimation of total solids and


solids not fat. The estimation of total solids and SNF is generally done by
determining the specific gravity of milk with a lactometer, the fat by Gerber
method and employing a formula involving specific gravity, fat and constant
factor. Presently the 2 stage BIS formula is followed to assess SNF/TS contents
very nearer to gravimetric method of estimation. The formula is:
SNF = (CLR/4) +0.25 * Fat% +0.35

 Determination of Adulterants
Many people would add scrupulous elements among products (milk and milk
products) to deceive the Dairy Co-Operative Society and the general public at
large. The Union has well equipped, efficient laboratories to seal such inflows to
the Union by having suitable testing mechanisms at Dairy Co-Operatives levels,
BMC, CC and all processing units.

23

MICROBIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF MILK:

 Methylene Blue Reduction Test

This test is used for both raw as well as pasteurized milk. The time taken to
reduce the color of the dye methylene blue by the milk sample indicates the
microbial load present. The change in the color appears because the bacteria in
the milk ferment the milk sugar.

 Phosphatase Test

This test is applied on pasteurized milk to note the efficiency of the


pasteurization done. It is done to ensure that the milk has been heated
adequately during the pasteurization process. It is based on the concept that
phosphatase is an enzyme which liberates inorganic phosphate from organic
compounds which contains phosphates in an ester linkage.

 Standard Plate Count

The bacterial quantity in the milk sample can be determined by the standard
plate count technique; this allows us to know the number of colonies forming
per ml of milk. Clean milk will have an impeccable quantity of bacteria than that
of collected or handled under unsanitary conditions or improper refrigeration.

CONCLUSION

Under Co-operative Sector, Kolar Chikkaballapura Co-Operative Milk Union


Limited (KOMUL) is totally an autonomous organization. KOMUL functions through
an elected management committee, operating in the Kolar district comprising of
Taluks. Through my visit to the plant in Kolar Chikkaballapura, I was able to see and
acknowledge the standards and operations of the Union. The organization plays a
huge role in procuring, processing and distributing massive quantities of quality milk
throughout most parts of the state of Karnataka. The milk is collected after thorough
testing from 1799 DCS (comprising of 2.78 lakh members). This milk is then
processed, pasteurized, and converted as per the requirements in the market. The milk
and milk products are marketed and distributed under the brand name “Nandini”,
which is apparently monopolistic giant in the milk industry. The Union also carries
out a variety of activities to ensure the welfare of the producers (farmers), the cattle
and dairy animals, and the fodder and cattle feed. All these actions are taken to obtain
quality milk from well trained and productive producers. The milk is processed and
maintained in pristine and sterile plants and centers with the clean and modern
equipment and machinery. The Union has and will continue to empower the life of
low income farmers by encouraging and supporting them in this industry.

The company has a good team of trained personnel in each department. As what has
been observed, automation by computerization of each department and networking
the whole system has further amplified their operations and reach in the market. This
has also known to have increased productivity of the company with the available
resources. We all benefited from the visit because we got a chance to discuss with
different expert.

INTRODUTION

McDonald's Corporation is an American fast food company, founded in the 1940 as a


restaurant operated by Richard and Maurice McDonald, in San Bernardino,
California, United States. They remodeled their business as a hamburger stand, which
later turned the company into a franchise. Now it is the world's leading global food
service retailer with more than 37,550 locations serving approximately 70 million
customers in more than 100 countries each day. Stephen J. Easterbrook is now the
President and CEO of McDonald's and it is Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, US.
McDonald's is the world's second-largest private employer with an approximate of 1.7
million employees, earning annual revenue of around US$ 21 billion. More than 80%
of McDonald's restaurants worldwide are owned and operated by independent local
business men and women. These individually owned and operational independent
businesses are franchises, from which the company earns a significant portion of its
revenue from rental payments.

The McDonald's Corporation revenues come from the rent, royalties, and fees paid by
the franchisees, as well as sales in company-operated restaurants. According to two
reports published in 2018, McDonald's is the world's second-largest private employer
with 1.7 million employees (behind Wal-Mart with 2.3 million employees).
McDonald's predominantly sells hamburgers, various types of chicken, chicken
sandwiches, French fries, soft drinks, breakfast items, and desserts. In most markets
around the globe, McDonald's offers salads and vegetarian items, wraps and other
localized fare. One of such franchises is in the Highway Star Restaurant in Kolar,
Karnataka, India.

MISSION & VISION STATEMENTS

As the biggest fast food restaurant chain in the world, the company considers its
corporate vision and mission statements as essential policy and strategic management
tools to ensure continuous growth. A firm’s corporate mission statement sets the
purpose and related activities of the business. McDonald's main aims are to serve
good food for great value in a friendly, fun environment, as well as being a socially
responsible company that provides good returns to our shareholders.

McDonald's corporate mission is “to be our customers' favorite place and way to eat


and drink.” This mission statement highlights the significance of customers as the
business focus, while maintaining the company as a major influence on their food and
beverage purchase decisions.

McDonald’s corporate vision is “to move with velocity to drive profitable growth and
become an even better McDonald’s serving more customers delicious food each day
around the world.”

PRODUCTS & MENU

McDonald's predominantly sells hamburgers, various types of chicken, chicken


sandwiches, French fries, soft drinks, breakfast items, and desserts. In most markets,
McDonald's offers salads and vegetarian items, wraps and other localized fare. On a
seasonal basis, McDonald's offers the McRib sandwich. Some speculate the
seasonality of the McRib adds to its appeal.

Products are offered as either "dine-in" (where the customer opts to eat in the
restaurant) or "take-out" (where the customer opts to take the food off the premises).
"Dine-in" meals are provided on a plastic tray with a paper insert on the floor of the
tray. "Take-out" meals are usually delivered with the contents enclosed in a distinctive
McDonald's-branded brown paper bag. In both cases, the individual items are
wrapped or boxed as appropriate.

Since Steve Easterbrook became CEO of the company, McDonald's has streamlined
the menu which in the United States contained nearly 200 items. The company has
also looked to introduce healthier options, and removed high-fructose corn syrup from
hamburger buns. The company has also removed artificial preservatives from Chicken
McNuggets, replacing chicken skin, safflower oil and citric acid found in Chicken
McNuggets with pea starch, rice starch and powdered lemon juice.

In September 2018, McDonald's USA announced that they no longer use artificial
preservatives, flavors and colors entirely from seven classic burgers sold in the U.S.,
including the hamburger, cheeseburger, double cheeseburger, McDouble, Quarter
Pounder with Cheese, double Quarter Pounder with Cheese and the Big Mac.
Nevertheless, the pickles will still be made with an artificial preservative, although
customers can choose to opt out of getting pickles with their burgers.

McDonalds offers a myriad of products, at various considerate prices. The


McDonalds at Highway Star Restaurant in Kolar offers over 70 various dishes. There
is an option of delivery to which can be done by ordering on Justdial. As per the
reviews the food is top notch and of great quality. The service rendered by the
restaurant is also of tremendous quality and has a friendly environment.

QUALITY & CUSTOMER CARE

McDonald’s vision is to be the world’s best quick service restaurant


experience. Being the best means providing outstanding quality, service, cleanliness,
and value, so that they make every customer in every restaurant smile. McDonald's
India ensures that the highest level of food safety standards is consistently maintained
across all their restaurants. To ensure this, they have spent six years prior to opening the
first restaurant in India to establish a unique cold chain with advanced traceability
systems. This is integral to help us reinforce stringent international standards of food ,
safety, and quality by tracing every ingredient that goes into their products. This has
also immensely benefited both local farmers and customers and has brought about a
veritable revolution in the QSR Industry. At first the company’s franchises in India have
not followed or responded well to food and quality concerns. The issue was with Vikram
Bakshi (Connaught Plaza Restaurants Private Limited, Delhi), McDonald’s estranged
partner, which was carried on for more four years. McDonalds had continuously ignored
the food quality concerns raised by him, which resulted in a temporary ban of the
trade mark and franchising of the company in India. The main reason of the quality
issues was due to the unhealthy and improper supply chains. Many steps and
initiatives have been taken by the company to better the quality standards over the
years. The company’s franchises are now doing significantly well and all is according
to the quality requirements and standards.

Animal welfare standards


In 2015, McDonald's pledged to stop using eggs from battery cage facilities by 2025.
Since McDonald's purchases over 2 billion eggs per year or 4 percent of eggs
produced in the United States, the switch is expected to have a major impact on the
egg industry and is part of a general trend toward cage-free eggs driven by consumer
concern over the harsh living conditions of hens. The aviary systems from which the
new eggs will be sourced are troubled by much higher mortality rates, as well as
introducing environmental and worker safety problems. The high hen mortality rate,
which is more than double that of battery cage systems, will require new research to
mitigate. The facilities also have higher ammonia levels due to faeces being kicked up
into the air. Producers raised concerns about the production cost, which is expected to
increase by 36%. McDonald's continues to source pork from facilities that
use gestation crates, but pledges to faze them out.

33

PROMOTIONAL TECHNIQUES & ACTIVITIES

In 1996, first McDonald’s restaurant opened on Oct. 13, at Basant Lok, Vasant
Vihar, New Delhi. McDonald’s India is a 50 – 50 JV partnership between
McDonald’s Corporation (U.S.A) and two Indian businessman Amit Jatia (Hardcastle
Restaurants Private Limited, Mumbai) and Vikram Bakshi (Connaught Plaza
Restaurants Private Limited, Delhi). Approximately 75% of the menu available in
McDonald’s in India is Indianized and specifically designed to woo Indian customers.

The 4Ps of the Marketing Mix in India:

Product:

McDonald’s places considerable emphasis on developing a menu which customers


want. Market research establishes exactly what this is. However, customers’
requirements change over time. In order to meet these changes, McDonald’s has
introduced new products and phased out old ones, and will continue to do so. Care is
taken not to adversely affect the sales of one choice by introducing a new choice,
which will cannibalize sales from the existing one (trade off). McDonald’s knows that
items on its menu will vary in popularity. Their ability to generate profits will vary at
different points in their cycle. In India McDonalds has a diversified product range
focusing more on the vegetarian products as most consumers in India are primarily
vegetarian. The happy meal for the children is a great seller among others.
McDonalds have to be very careful in India while growing their business. In India you
go out and you will get a ready to eat snacks and that too in a cheap price. So
McDonalds has a direct competition with Indian street fast food which has a many
varieties and it is very popular amongst the people. The franchises offer products that
are a comparison between Indian Burger (Vada Pav) & McDonalds Burger to tackle
this adversary.

Price:
The customer’s perception of value is an important determinant of the price charged.
Customers draw their own mental picture of what a product is worth. A product is
more than a physical item; it also has psychological connotations for the customer.
The danger of using low price as a marketing tool is that the customer may feel that
quality is being compromised. It is important when deciding on price to be fully
aware of the brand and its integrity. In India the most authentic cuisine of India is the
Indian street food, which can be bought only for a few rupees from the portable stalls
found in the Indian cities and town. Street food is popular mainly because they are
available at half of the price of any restaurant food. Take-out food, junk food, snacks
and fast food are available easily and it doesn’t take much time to prepare so it is very
quick in eating.

34

The Indian Street Food varies from region to region .The typical North Indian street
food is Chaat, a generic name for all tangy spicy and not very nutritious delicacies. In
India in different region has their own different specialties and which are easy to get it
and cheap in price. So in India to compete with the Indian local street fast food,
McDonalds has to work hard to build its position and keep on competing and growing
each day. McDonalds mainly uses the value ladder strategy which helps to satisfy
consumers with different price perceptions.

Value Ladder strategy:-

a) Started offering value meals in a range of prices.

b) Ensure affordability and attract widest section of customers.

c) Brought the customer and provided a range of entry level products.

d) Try those new items and graduate to higher-rungs.

e) For example, if a customer starts with McAloo Tikki, he will finally graduate to
McVeggie and so in Non veg.

Promotion:

The promotions aspect of the marketing mix covers all types of marketing
communications. One of the methods employed is advertising. Advertising is
conducted on TV, radio, in cinema, online, using poster sites and in the press for
example in newspapers and magazines. Other promotional methods include sales
promotions, point of sale display, merchandising, direct mail, loyalty schemes, door
drops, etc. The skill in marketing communications is to develop a campaign which
uses several of these methods in a way that provides the most effective results. This
may be supported by in-store promotions to get people to try the product and a
collectable promotional device to encourage them to keep on buying the item. At
McDonalds the prime focus is on targeting children. In happy meals too which are
targeted at children small toys are given along with the meal. Apart from this, various
schemes for winning prices by way of lucky draws and also scratch cards are given
when an order is placed on the various mean combos. McDonalds, for years has
maintained an extensive promotion strategy with highest spending on marketing
amongst all its competitors. “I’m loving it” is an international branding campaign
which was launched in 2003 and has proved to be its biggest success. While “aap ke
zamaane mein baap ke zamaane ke daam” is a highly localized campaign, which is
aimed at attracting the masses through its happy price menu.

While advertising McDonald’s focuses on the following for an overall effective


experience for its customers:

“Brand globally and act locally”.

35

“Overall it is doing what it does the best – marketing.”

“Intensive advertising aimed at children.”

“Paper mats on trays ensure that no new scheme goes unnoticed.”

McDonalds uses many different strategies to attract a specific niche market, such as:
 Happy meals for kids around the age of 3-12 years old.
 They also include toys for children. This encourages parents to buy them for their
children.
 They allow the option of having kids’ parties at McDonalds.
 Family meals (dinner deals)
 McCafe (attracts older people so they can grab lunch and coffee at the same time)

McDonalds promotes their company through a wide range of promotion strategies:

 Advertising (TV, bus stops, radio, billboards, newspapers/magazines)


 Sponsorship (2012 Olympics)
 Product Placement
 Competitions (win a holiday to Bali)
 Lunch hour specials (12pm-2pm)
 Music and TV's to entertain customers

Place:

Place, as an element of the marketing mix, is not just about the physical location or
distribution points for products. It encompasses the management of a range of
processes involved in bringing products to the end consumer. McDonald’s outlets are
very evenly spread throughout the cities making them very accessible. Drive in and
drive through options make McDonald’s products further convenient to the
consumers. McDonald’s has to assess and always study the market for possible
increases in demand and other opportunities available in the market.
36

CSR & CHARITY ACTIVITIES

McDonald’s has many schemes towards social betterment and responsibility.


A few of those schemes are as follows:

McHappy Day
McHappy Day is an annual event at McDonald's, during which a percentage of the
day's sales go to charity. It is the signature fundraising event for Ronald McDonald
House Charities. In 2007, it was celebrated in 17 countries: Argentina, Australia,
Austria, Brazil, Canada, England, Finland, France, Guatemala, Hungary, Ireland, New
Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, the United States, and Uruguay. According
to the Australian McHappy Day website, McHappy Day raised $20.4 million in 2009.
McDonald's Monopoly donation
In 1995, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital received an anonymous letter
postmarked in Dallas, Texas, containing a $1 million winning McDonald's
Monopoly game piece. McDonald's officials came to the hospital, accompanied by a
representative from the accounting firm Arthur Andersen, who examined the card
under a jeweler's eyepiece, handled it with plastic gloves, and verified it as a winner.
Although game rules prohibited the transfer of prizes, McDonald's waived the rule
and made the annual $50,000 annuity payments for the full 20-year period through
2014, even after learning that the piece was sent by an individual involved in an
embezzlement scheme intended to defraud McDonald's.
McRefugee
McRefugees are poor people in Hong Kong, Japan, and China who use McDonald's
24-hour restaurants as a temporary hostel. One in five of Hong Kong's population
lives below the poverty line. These McRefufees temporarily shelter and feed the
people in need nearby. The rise of McRefugees was first documented by photographer
Suraj Katra in 2013. Connaught Plaza Restaurants Limited (CPRL, which was, until
last week, a 50:50 joint venture (JV) between Bakshi and McDonald's India Private,
now operates 169 outlets in the north and east of the country. In the west and
south, McDonald's has a separate partnership with the Amit Jatia-led Hardcastle
Restaurants.
Other activities
 27% of positions at vice president and above levels are held by women
 More than 25% of managers in company-owned restaurants are women or
people of color
 Ronald McDonald House Charities served 5.7 million children and their families
in 2014

37

 The company has made a pledge for responsible marketing for children in 52
countries
 132,186 pieces of energy efficient equipment was bought by McDonald’s
Corporation and its Franchisees in 2014. This is estimated to save about 142 gig
watt hours and USD 14.2 million in energy costs

2012-2013 CSR & Sustainability Report


McDonald’s has released the framework in conjunction with the
Company’s 2012-2013 CSR & Sustainability Report. This framework is designed to
position the company for the future, while generating measurable, positive impacts for
society. In creating the framework, McDonald’s continued its historically
collaborative approach by consulting with suppliers, franchisees, customers and more
than a dozen sustainability experts, NGOs and socially responsible investment
organizations. The theme of the 2012-2013 CSR & Sustainability Report is, “Our
Journey Together. For Good.”
McDonald’s 2020 CSR & Sustainability Framework aspirational goals include:

CONCLUSION

McDonald is the world’s leading food service retailer with more than 30,000
restaurants in 119 countries serving 46 million customers each day. Approximately
85% of McDonald’s restaurants worldwide are owned and operated by independent,
local businessmen and women. As a conclusion, everyone prefers to eat McDonalds.
The last half of the twentieth century witnessed the development of many fast food
chains. None were as successful as McDonalds at maximizing profit. The fast
food industry in India has evolved with the changing lifestyles of the young Indian
population. The sheer variety of gastronomic preferences across the regions,
hereditary or acquired, has brought about different modules across the country. It may
take some time for the local enterprise to mature to the level of international players
in the field. The eating-out market in India, which is dominated by unorganised
players, is expected to reach $131 billion by 2022. The total sales of quick-service
restaurants are estimated to grow by 9.2% to reach $21.6 billion by then, according to
Euromonitor data. Further the western fast food market that is just 1.3% of the overall
eating-out market, is expected to grow the fastest, by 13.4% to reach $1.8 billion in
2022. Despite facing many problems due to inadherence of quality standards before,
tough competition from street food vendors, and improper performance of the main
products, the company still thrives.

After entering India more than two decades ago, burger and fries chain McDonald’s
posted its first profit during year-to-March 2018, amid a long-drawn legal dispute
with one of its key licensee partners. McDonald’s has formulated its 2020
Aspirational Goals that explain the measures of sustainable sourcing of foods and
packaging, providing balanced choices to customers, developing and operating
environmentally efficient McDonald’s restaurants and supporting local communities
to be initiated by the company. McDonald's has become emblematic of globalization,
sometimes referred to as the "McDonaldization" of society.

PRODUCTS
Kalingastone’s anti-microbial formula makes it highly resistant to microbial
growth. It has been certified as food grade and it is perfectly safe to prepare food on
its surface. Kalingastone quartz is NSF certified, which makes it food safe. Besides,
quartz is non-porous by nature and is ideal material for hygienic kitchen countertops.
The standard size of kalingastone slab is 3 mtrs X 1 mtrs. Kalingastone marble slab of
minimum 18 mm thickness can be cut in minimum 2 equal pieces and if the thickness
is lesser than 18 mm, slabs to be cut in 3 pieces. In case of 12 mm thickness, keep
maximum size of 2’X2′.

Kalingastone Quartz is 4th hardest material on earth after diamond. Quartz rates 7 out
of 10 on Mohs Scale of Hardness. It has the appearance and feels of natural quartz but
with better performance thanks to its high resistance, and comes in an extensive range
of colours, designs, sizes, and thickness. It is the ideal product for kitchen
countertops, floors, walls and all kinds of indoor surfaces that have to withstand
intensive use. A few types of products are as listed below:

 Marble

 Quartz

 Blanco Tranco
 Blanco Carrara.
 Crema Marfil
 CremaCenia
 Crema Valencia.
 Negro Marquina.

Kalingastone is extremely robust and highly scratch resistant, but no countertop


material is entirely scratch proof. We recommend use of a cutting board to chop
vegetables, and avoid using sharp objects directly on the surface. Though
Kalingastone is highly resistant to heat, scratches and stains; like most surfacing
products; exposure to excessive heat could possibly damage the surface in the long
run. We recommend the use of hot pads to protect the surface from heated cookware.
Kalingastone Engineered Marble products are recommended for facades.
Kalingastone is not only a flooring option, it can be used in cladding as well. It gives
the designers variety of options in various finishes thus making it a preferred choice in
facades.

One of the major attractive features of the marbles of Kalinga Stone is that they
possess their own storage facility to store their products in different forms. They have
storage capacity of storing 2100 marble blocks in the block gantry, 2500 slabs of
marbles and 1000 slabs of quartz in the slab display, and apart from all this, they have
a stockyard of 45000 sq.mt. which stores the finished products.

The Allure of Marbles

Kalingastone’s agglomerated marble allows you to customize both residential and


commercial interiors by bridging the gap between nature and technology with a
greater level of color consistency and strength. Manufactured in blocks, and then
offered in standard slab thickness, Kalingastone marble is available in custom
thickness and consistent colors. The stone comprises of about 90-94% natural
aggregates along with resins and binders, thus giving you a more consistent and
sustainable marble which is suitable for both residential and commercial use.

The Kalingastone Marble Edge


Versatility: Kalingastone marble is available in over sixty colors and textures and can
be used on floors, facades, walls, bathrooms, countertops, building external facades,
staircases, windows, and door frames.

Polishing: Kalingastone marble can be re-polished, thus maintaining its shine and
appearance for long.

Porosity: Kalingastone marble’s, low porosity level results in minimal absorption of


water and other liquids thus making it easy to clean and maintain.

Hardness: The product surface hardness and comprehensive strength is more than
natural marble, hence making it resistant to damage. This makes it an ideal product
for flooring in high traffic areas.

Consistency: Unlike natural stone, agglomerate marble is available in uniform colors


and size, thus minimizing wastage and providing color consistence over a large area.

Cost Effectiveness: Kalingastone’s agglomerated marbles are an elegant and cost


effective option to the original marble.

The Magic of Quartz


Aesthetically pleasing with reliable technical characteristics such as flexural strength,
high resistance and durability, Kalingastone Quartz is the best choice to create unique
interiors. The collection is available in standard size slabs with a thickness of 12mm,
15mm, 20mm and 30mm.

Quartz is one of the hardest mineral in the world and hence the resultant quartz slab is
stronger than granite.

The Kalingastone Quartz Edge


Strength and durability: Kalingastone’s quartz surfaces are stronger than granite.
Quartz surface has a high surface hardness. High Scratch Resistant

53
Maintenance free: With only warm water needed to maintain the surface, processes
such as sealing, polishing and reconditioning become redundant. Unlike granite, it has
a resistance to common food stains such as wine, tea and coffee.

Food safe: Kalingastone quartz has been certified by NSF International as a safe
surface for preparing food. The quartz counter is non-porous hence does not absorb
water or any other substance that gets in touch with the counter, thus making it stain
resistant

All natural: Kalingastone quartz is created from pure natural quartz, an extremely
hard stone. In fact, quartz is the hardest non-precious stone on the earth’s surface.
Because of its non porous nature, it remains free from bacteria, making it ideal for
kitchen tops.

Everlasting Value: With its beauty and performance advantages over granite, a
Kalingastone quartz kitchen countertop or bathroom vanity will add value to your
home.

Created from Reputation


The manufacturing process of Kalingastone composite marble and quartz involves the
use of imported aggregates.  The UV resin treatment is done on Italian machinery, and
the slabs are then polished on the latest state-of-the art polishing machines from
SIMEC Italy.

Ador Welding Limited was formerly known as Advani–Oerlikon Ltd. and traces its
history back to 1908 and five men, all originally from Karachi, Pakistan:
KanwalsingMalkani, VasanmalMalakani, JotsingAdvani, BhagwansingAdvani, and
GopaldasMirchandani. In 1951 to meet India's growing demand for welding
electrodes, JB Advani & Co formed a joint venture with Oerlikon-Buhrle of
Switzerland to manufacture them. The resulting company, Adavni–Oerlikon Ltd.,
helped build India's welding industry, which at the time was in its infancy.

In early 1970s the company began expanding into other sectors in India, such as
electronic equipment, metal reclamation solutions for industrial components, energy
solutions and cosmetics. During this decade a separate entity, AdorPowertron, was
established for manufacturing electronic power equipment. The 1970s also saw the
formation of Ador Fontech, a company providing metal reclamation and surfacing
solutions for industrial components. Within ten years, Ador Fontech had become the
number two company after Larsen and Toubro in the metal reclamation sector.

In 1986 JB Advani & Co launched an Initial Public Offering and ceased to be the
holding company of Advani-Oerlikon Ltd. In 2003 the joint Advani–Oerlikon
association came to an end and the company changed to its current name Ador
Welding Limited.

Ador Welding Limited is engaged in the manufacture of manual metal arc


welding/brazing electrodes, continuous welding electrodes, arc welding/braze welding
fluxes, and welding and cutting equipment and accessories. Ms A B Advani is the

CONCLUSION
Pepsi is well renowned company and it has maintained its position well by
understanding the client psychology ensuring quality introducing ingenuity in
products enlarging its products base keeping economic factors in view. The key word
for success in the marketing world is no “remain in the spotlight” and that is what
Pepsi is doing. Bringing about systemic and comprehensive improvements in the
global diet will require the engagement of large food and beverage companies like
PepsiCo. Our global scale, resources and capabilities will continue to be valuable
assets as governments and NGOs manage health and nutrition priorities around the
world. This is because not one company can solve public health challenges alone, we
will continue to work with partners and experts to meet our Products goals while
contributing to global efforts around food security, improved nutrition, health and
well-being.
As seen in the 2025 Agenda, the company intends to build on this progress over the
next decade, with plans for the further transformation of our portfolio as well as a
significant expansion of food and beverage offerings containing positive nutrition,
with a focus on reaching more underserved communities and consumers with
healthier choices. More and more families are eating healthier, and in turn, we
continue to grow what we call our Everyday Nutrition business-products with positive
nutrition like whole grains, fruits and vegetables, dairy, protein and hydration- which
now accounts for 25% of the company’s revenue.

At the same time, PepsiCo and the PepsiCo foundation have worked with partners to
help advance nutrition and food security in communities around India. According to
the World Health Organization (WHO), worldwide obesity has more than doubled
since 1980. At the same time, hunger and malnutrition remain two of the world's most
serious health problems. And with the world's population expected to surge to 9.7
billion by 2050, according to the United Nations, the private food industry will need
to make nutritious food available in greater quantities and at affordable prices.
Simultaneously, consumer demand for more nutritious foods and beverages continues
to rise, presenting growth potential for PepsiCo. 

PepsiCo India provides direct and indirect employment to almost 1,70,000 people.
The company believes in providing employment and growth opportunities to local
talent. Its ‘College of Leadership’, ensures early identification of talent, and
employees’ focused development through critical experiences. PepsiCo firmly
believes that encouraging diversity means encouraging policies and systems that
respect people’s special needs. Not only does PepsiCo have a vibrant and diverse
workforce, it takes the utmost care to make dynamic business leaders of its employees

MILESTONES

focus has always been on providing customers with the best products and services.
The resulting success has only reaffirmed UltraTech's desire to be a complete end-to-
end building solutions provider. Each milestone in this journey is a cherished
memory: becoming the largest cement manufacturer in India, winning the
'SUPERBRAND' and 'POWERBRAND' accolades and being recognized as a truly
global organization, are a few that stand out.

UltraTech's inception can be traced back to the mid-1980s with the establishment of
Grasim's first cement plant at Jawad in Madhya Pradesh. In 2001, with the objective
of increasing its reach, Grasim acquired a stake in L&T Cement Ltd. The stake was
further increased to a majority stake in 2003 thereby giving Grasim a pan-India
presence and an increased market share. In 2004, the demerger of L&T's cement
business was completed and Grasim acquired a controlling stake in L&T Cement Ltd
and the name was subsequently changed to UltraTech Cement. The cement business
of Grasim was demerged and vested in Samruddhi Cement Limited in May 2010, with
Samruddhi Cement Limited consequently being amalgamated with UltraTech Cement
Limited in July 2010. In September 2010, UltraTech Cement Middle East Investments
Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of UltraTech Cement acquired management
control of ETA Star Cement Company, along with its operations in the UAE, Bahrain
and Bangladesh, thereby putting UltraTech on the global map.

(MTPA) of grey cement. UltraTech Cement has 20 integrated plants, 1 clinkerisation
plant, 26 grinding units and 7 bulk terminals. Its operations span across India, UAE,
