Executive summary
India is a tropical country and has accorded a favorable reception to thirst quenchers such as fruit juices and aerated drinks. Ready to serve B.Natural juice is a beverage prepared from clarified
Balan Natural food pvt.ltd . When chilled the B. Natural makes for a nutritious and refreshing
drink. The nutritive value of real fruit beverages is far greater than that of synthetic products,
which are being tetra packs and sold in large quantities throughout the country. If real fruit juices
could be substituted for these synthetic preparations, it would be a boon to the consumer as well
as the fruit grower. India is a market of diversity – diverse with regards to incomes, price points
of products, culture and preferences and a marketer has to get use to these diverse characteristics
of the market. Drinking juice is not a part of our culture. We drink water with our meals but in
the West one starts the day with breakfast and a glass of juice. Juice is to a great extent
considered as a luxury not a necessity in our society, surely but slowly things are changing
mainly in the urban and semi urban areas, where the population is getting more and more health
conscious and are realizing the important nutrient values of fruit and are making them a part of
their daily diet. The companies in this Rs. 500 crore industry will have to organize various
promotional activities from time to time mainly to increase sampling and to educate the
consumers about packaged fruit juice that it is as pure and nutritious as fresh juice which is
perceived as fresh as it is extracted in their presence i.e. actual or assumed. There are two main
brands in this segment of non- carbonated drink markets; they are ‘Real’ from Dabur and
‘Tropicana’ from PepsiCo. These two players command around 80% market share in the
organised sector. We can observe this industry growing and new players entering the market. In
recent times we have seen the entries of some international brands, like Berr[Australia],
Ballantyne [Australia], and Tipco [Thailand], with the intention to strengthen their hold in India
and to grow with the market.

Juice
Juice is the liquid that is naturally contained in fruit or vegetable tissue. Juice is prepared by
mechanically squeezing or macerating fresh fruits or vegetables flesh without the application of
heat or solvents. For example, orange juice is the liquid extract of the fruit of the orange tree.
Juice may be prepared in the home from fresh fruits and vegetables using a variety of hand or
electric juicers.
Many commercial juices are filtered to remove fiber or pulp, but high-pulp fresh orange
juice is a popular beverage.
Common methods for preservation and processing of fruit juices include canning, pasteurization,
freezing, evaporation and spray drying.
In the United Kingdom the name of a fruit or fruits followed by juice can only legally be used to
describe a product which is 100% fruit juice, as required by the Fruit Juices and Fruit Nectars
(England) Regulations and the Fruit Juices & Fruit Nectars (Scotland) Regulations 2003.
However a juice made by reconstituting concentrate can be called juice. A product described as
the "nectar" of a fruit must contain a minimum of juice between 25% and 50% for different
fruitcakes. A juice or nectar including concentrate must state that it does. The term "juice drink"
is not defined in the Regulations and can be used to describe any drink which includes juice,
however little. Comparable rules apply in all EU member states in their respective languages.
In the USA fruit juice can only legally be used to describe a product which is 100% fruit juice. A
blend of fruit juice(s) with other ingredients, such as high-fructose corn syrup, is called a juice
cocktail or juice drink. According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the term
"nectar" is generally accepted in the U.S. and in international trade for a diluted juice to denote a
beverage that contains fruit juice or puree, water, and which may contain artificial sweeteners.
In New Zealand and Australia particularly (and others) juice denotes a sweetened fruit extract,
whereas nectar denotes a pure fruit or vegetable extract.
Fruit juice labels may be misleading, with juice companies actively hiding the actual content.
"No added sugar" is commonly printed on labels, but the products may contain large amounts of
naturally occurring sugars; however, sugar content is listed with other carbohydrates on labels in
many countries.
Some carbonated beverages, not described as fruit juice, contain fruit juice (such as Mountain Dew, which contains orange juice).
Health effects
Juices are often consumed for their perceived health benefits. For example, orange juice is rich in
vitamin C, folic acid, potassium, is an excellent source of bioavailable antioxidant
phytochemicals [8] and significantly improves blood lipid profiles in people affected with
hypercholesterolemia.[9] Prune juice is associated with a digestive health benefit. Cranberry juice
has long been known to help prevent or even treat bladder infections, and it is now known that a
substance in cranberries prevents bacteria from binding to the bladder.
The high sugar content of fruit juices is often not realized—many fruit juices have a higher sugar
(fructose) content than sweetened soft drinks; e.g., typical grape juice has 50% more sugar than
Coca Cola. The comparison is not very fair however, because while soft drinks (e.g. Coca Cola)
cause oxidative stress when ingested and may even lead to insulin resistance in the long term,
the same thing cannot be attributed to fruit juices. On the contrary, fruit juices are actually
known for their ability to raise serum antioxidant capacity and even offset the oxidative stress
and inflammation normally caused by high-fat and high-sugar meals.
Fruit juice consumption overall in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and the USA has increased in
recent years, probably due to public perception of juices as a healthy natural source of nutrients
and increased public interest in health issues. Indeed, fruit juice intake has been consistently
associated with reduced risk of many cancer types, might be protective against stroke and delay
the onset of Alzheimer's disease.
The perception of fruit juice as equal in health benefit to fresh fruit has been questioned, mainly
because it lacks fiber and has often been highly processed. High-fructose corn syrup, an
ingredient of many juice cocktails, has been linked to the increased incidence of type II diabetes.
High consumption of juice is also linked to weight gain in some studies, but not in others. In a
controlled clinical study, regular consumption of grape juice for 12 weeks did not cause any
weight gain in volunteers, but consumption of soft drink did. Fruit juice in moderate amounts
can help children and adults meet daily recommendations for fruit consumption, nutrient intake
and calories.

PRIMARY COLLECTION : By observation By Interviews to retailers DSR
SECONDARY DATA :
Internet Booklet
Market Segmentation:
There has been no general acceptance of the product forms in the fruit beverage market. The
consumer is basically concerned if it is a fruit juice or synthetically constituted product. Product
segmentation, therefore, should be clearly delimited.
• Under the fruit drinks the first segmentation is between real fruit drinks and synthetic drinks.
The real fruit drinks are based on natural fruit pulp or juice.
The synthetic drinks are synthetic products with fruit or other flavors.
• Broad taste preferences could be another way to define the market. The market is at present
also segmented on the basis of fruit pulp content. For the purpose of segmentation, on the basis
of fruit pulp content. For the purpose of segmentation, on the basis of fruit pulp content, market can be segmented as: Fruit juicewith pulp content more than 80%. Brands falling in this category are Onjus, Real, Tropicana, etc.
Fruit juicewith pulp content more than 80%. Brands falling in this category are Onjus, Real, Tropicana, etc. Fruit Nectar with pulp content between 40% to *0%. Life and X’s come in this category.
Fruit Drinks with pulp content less than 40%. Frooti and Jumpin are the popular brands in this category.
• Segmentation could also be on the basis of the benefits provided to the consumer:
One benefit could be the nutrition content it gives to the consumer so one market could be the health-conscious segment.
Second benefit is thirst quenching, so the other segment could be those buying the drink or nectar for satisfying the thirst
Another very broad segmentation can be on the type of situation in which the drink or nectar is used:
People who are on the move i.e. Outdoor use e.g. those traveling. People who are using it on the breakfast table as a part of their menu i.e.in- house use.
Players very often choose one or more of such segmentations to differentiate their product and
target market and accordingly plan their distribution and promotion patterns.
Market And needs:
Consumers usually, are not going to accept something that doesn’t taste good even if it is good
for them or has certain benefits. Companies working to bring a new food product to the market
have two questions—does it taste good and will consumers buy it?
Market Trends:
Tropical fruits and flavours dominate the market, yet some consumers are still hesitant to try
unknown exotic flavours like cherimoya, guanabana and carambola. Companies have found the
best way to introduce exotics is in combination with familiar flavours. A flavour combination
that began in the new age, 5% to 10% juice category, and has spread to other beverage categories
as well as to other products like B. Natural, strawberry, etc. stating that it was a small company
that took the risk and won.
Smaller companies lead the way, as they are more willing to try exotic flavours even though the
larger companies have a larger staff and budget, and can afford to search out the trends. The
large companies tend to introduce prototypes that are pretty well- tested. They are always
interested in the next flavour trend, but usually are not the first to debut it.
Fortified drinks are also gaining market i.e. the juice is processed and an additional nutritious
trait is added to enhance its wholesome value e.g. with additional calcium, vitamin C etc.
One can notice the population in the country mainly in the cities becoming more and more aware
with regard to the nutritional aspect of life. This knowledge, coupled with the consumer’s desire
for a healthier lifestyle, has greatly impacted the evolution of juice and juice-based drinks over
the last few years
Substitute:
Fruit juice companies have to face a two level competition i.e. on the first level with the
substitutes and the then the players within the industry. The ‘sip war’ is comprised of the
following players with respect to India.
• Soft Drinks (both carbonated and Non- carbonated soft drinks)
Soft Drinks are divided into carbonated and Non- carbonated drinks. While Cola, lemon and
oranges are carbonated drinks mango drinks come Non- carbonated category.
• Flavoured Milk (energy, N-Joy etc.)
Just like fruit drinks Flavoured milk is also positioned on the health platform. Companies
are trying to project it as a fun drink with added flavours and innovative packaging.
• Mineral Water
Fruit drink sellers consider even mineral water as substitute to their offerings. The main assumption is that packs ensure quality delivery.
• Other products
Milk by- products like buttermilk and lassi also serve as major substitutes. They compete in
terms of low price as well as easy availability. These drinks are also considered important from
the health perspective.
Distribution patterns:
Distribution network and reach are vital factors for success of the brands in the fruit beverage
market. It is mainly the distribution strategy that the companies are focusing upon.
The distribution is mainly done through stockist. The companies also have franchises that work
as a separate entity. Some companies also have their C & F agents to give the product to the
distributors, who further distribute to the retailers. To co-ordinate the things properly with the
distributors, companies keep their own field force.
Below the figure shows the many ways the companies in this industry are seen to be
operating:
The urban Indian retail sector has traditionally been structured around three small retail
entities—the grocer, the general store and the chemist.
• Thegrocer stocks non packaged, unbranded commodities such as rice, flour, and pulses, as well as branded fast moving consumer goods (FMCGs)
• The general store stocks only branded, packaged FMCGs.
• The chemist, a part from dispensing pharmaceuticals products, sells branded
FMCGs such as personal care products and health foods.
• Departmental stores and supermarkets.
• Others:
Bakeries and confectioners Fruit juice/ tea stall/ vending machines Ice-cream parlours, Electrical and hardware stores and Non-food boutiques, etc.
These retail outfits stock branded FMCGs that gel with their businesses.
Supply chain integration does not quite matter in the case of the small retailer because of the
small scale of his operations. He normally deals directly with wholesalers with whom he is able
to negotiate rates.
Retail consolidation (consolidation of buying power) among supermarket operators is unlikely to
hurt small retailers simply because it will affect manufacturers directly, who will not want to
compromise on the distribution reach to offer large volumes to a few bigretailers.
The small retailers form an integral part of the wide distribution network set up by the large
FMCG companies. Marketers have also found that private/ store brands from supermarkets can
prove to be a threat to their own brands and hence, desist from encouraging retail consolidation.
Market Analysis
Market Analysis Summary:
One can sense an evolution that the industry has seen with development in the tetra- pack
market, there also has been a natural progression from drinks to nectars to juices and while
traditionally fruit drinks were aimed at children, the new brands like ‘B. Natural, Real, and Life’
have focused on young adults and professionals.
Although fruit drinks focus strongly on out of home consumption, the juices and nectars have
been concentrating on takeaways or in-home consumption with more choice coming in, the tetra-
pack market is likely to witness further segmentation.
Packaged fruit juices are getting recognized as social drinks now, with dominant consumption
being observed in the company of family and friends. People have started to perceive fruit juices
as anytime beverages, with consumption being spread more or less evenly between the mid
mornings, afternoons and evenings. And generation now is as much inclined to sipping fruit
juices as colas, with teenagers driving the maximum trials.
If the findings of a usage and attitude study conducted by market research agency India.
The results of the research can be briefly put as follows:
• Among packaged fruit beverages, the ‘awareness to trial, ratio of PepsiCo’s Tropicana juice
brand has been rated the highest. Up to 17% of the respondents were aware of Tropicana, while
the brand’s trial stood at 11%, also, 8% of the respondents stocked the brand at their homes.
Other parameters where Tropicana edged out competitors included taste, health, purity and
nutrition, according to the study, Tropicana was also perceiver as ‘reasonably priced’.
• The average Indian may have a legendary weakness for mango, but when it comes to
preference of fruit-based juices; his choices are in tune with international trends. Therefore it is
orange juice that is the most preferred fruit juice flavour in India, followed by apple, sweet
orange and mixed fruit.
• The findings indicate that most packaged juice drinking consumers travel abroad on holidays.
• Other attributes of branded juice consumers include employment of domestic help, ownership
of assets and credit cards, and health consciousness with 80% respondents going to aerobic
classes or working out at gymnasiums. • Understandably therefore, awareness and trial levels of packaged juices are higher within the
Sec A category, than among Sec B consumers, the majority of whom rated these as aspirational.
• Awareness levels are similar in both Mumbai and Delhi; more trials are generated by Delhi ties than their counterparts in Mumbai.
• The consumers are starting to perceive fruit juices at home. While 55% of the
respondents consumed 1- litre packs at home, 45% consumed 200ml packs.
The fruit beverage market has more acceptances in Northern and Western India, which
is due to the climatic conditions prevailing there with relations to the rest of the country.

LIMITATION
This survey was carried out in Delhi and NCR region at specific Big Bazar and reliance
outlet at specific route, hence finding and conclusion may not be as useful in other
geographical areas.
As the project on competition and distribution based so the result can’t be 100% due to
increase in demand.
It’s up to retail outlet that which brand they want to put in outlet so the availability of
product may constantly vary.
Product is mainly located in Big Bazaar and Reliance outlate so the the most of the
people were not Aware about the product.
Due to lake of advertisement product was not well known to market and people.
No promoter were appointed for the brand promotion so it was not easy to attract
customer.
Availability of other well know brand like, Tropicana and Dabur which are faithful brand
and customer do not change their taste and are stuck to their old brands.
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
CONCLUSION
The following conclusion can be drawn from competition study of B. natural juice with other Big brand in Delhi and NCR region.
B.Natural juice are good quality product and competiting in juice market in other part of country But product have more potential and yet no placed in some required place because of following reason.
B.Natural has good potential to capture maximum market share in Delhi by considering following point.
Company should do some promotional activities in market to get more attention of customer
Company need to improve availability factor by covering more market area in distribution ofProduct to get more market share
Competitor like Tropicana has more than 30 distribution agencies and B.Natural has just about 10 agencies to cover delhi region, hence we can easily evaluate the comparing with Tropicana “B.Natural” has weak distribution channel, so company must think about that.
Company should take immediate action on decision which was taken in previous meeting.
If possible company must bound distributor to keep all product in all size at the warehouse Which can help sales man to place order given by retailer.
