MURREE BREWERY(ISO 14001 Certified Company)

ORGANIZATION

Established in 1860, the Murree Brewery is Pakistan’s oldest institution. At the time of its

creation, the brewery in Ghora Gali in Murree was one of Asia’s first modern beer breweries.

Having undergone many changes in management and location due to both natural calamities and

bureaucratic interference, the Murree Brewery managed to overcome all such challenges and

emerged stronger under the late Minoo Bhandara’s masterful leadership.

After Mr. Bhandara’s unexpected and tragic demise, the onus of running the brewery lay with his

son, Isphanyar Bhandara, who had been working at the brewery for almost a decade before his

father’s untimely death and was thus familiar with the operations and intricacies involved in

running a brewery in an otherwise officially-declared dry country like Pakistan.

Apart from the alcohol division, Murree Brewery has two other subsidiaries: Tops Food and

Beverages, and Murree Glass; both of which function independently and as successfully as the

brewery itself.

HISTORY

To meet the beer requirements of British personnel (mainly army), the Murree Brewery was

established in 1860 and incorporated a year later at Ghora Galli, near the resort town of Murree.

Between 1885 & 1890 the Company established Breweries in Quetta; a distillery and brewery

was also established Rawalpindi. The Murree Brewery at Ghora Galli was therefore among the

first modern beer breweries established in Asia.

By 20th century, the name "Murree" was famous in British India. Murree Beer was awarded

product excellence at the Philadelphia Exhibition in 1876, and numerous awards.

By the 1920s, brewing was mostly transferred to the Rawalpindi brewery but malting continued

at Ghora Galli till the 1940s, when this property was sold. This historic brewery built in Gothic

style architecture was burnt during the partition riots of 1947/48.

56 5 | P a g e

Page 6: Murree Brewery (TQM) Total Quantity Management Final Report

It was the principal residence and head office of the company till 1959, when it was taken over

by the Government of Pakistan to house the office of the President of Pakistan. It remains an

office of the Head of State of Pakistan from 1960 till the present day.

The Rawalpindi brewery is blessed with deep aquifers of good water. A railway siding was

extended to the premises in the 19th century, which is now derelict.

INDUSTRY (MONOPOLY OF MURREE BREWERY)

Murree Brewery Co. Ltd. continued to dominate as a monopoly due to restrictions on importing

alcohol. The economies of scale it enjoyed over the review period and the restrictive regulatory

and social environment for alcoholic drinks in Pakistan deterred other local start-ups.

QUALITY COUNCIL

Figure 5: Hierarchy of Quality Council (Central Lab) [Source: Interview conducted]

The quality council is referred to as ‘Central Lab’ in this organization. The Central lab which is

also concerned with Research and Development Division (which is most active nowadays while

innovating their product line and bringing a whole new range of non-alcoholic beverages in

market). The primary job of the central lab is to ensure the quality of products and keep a

constant watchful eye on the manufacturing of the products.

GM (General Manager) and TM (Technical Manager) work in collaboration and are at the core

decision-making positions. The QCM (Quality Control Manager) is the person who overlooks

all of the production from raw-material to storage and later on production. AC (Assistant

Chemist) ensures that the chemical ingredients of the product are contact so as to create the

optimal output. The AC along with the QCM has the authority to stop the production at any point

in time if they see that the raw material was somehow damaged or the production is effected by

any externalities. QCO (Quality Control Officers) fill in MBO sheet (assuring measures and

standards) after every 45minns to ensure the quality of the production.

OPERATIONS

Every day at 12pm there is a Production meeting in which Quality and Quantity issues are

discussed. The brewery works 24 hours and has 3 shifts of 8 hours each a day whereby QCO

(Quality Control Officer) and other lower management changes whereas the distiller or the

filling halls has 2 shifts of 8 hours each (may vary upon changes in demand). The production of

Alcohol is 6000 liters per day. To minimize the initiation of unwanted bacteria and to maintain

quality, Sodium Fluoride is added to the raw material. BS (Bottling Superintendent) manages the

production. The card-punch system is maintained which records the time of an employee

entering or leaving the premises.

CUSTOMERS

The major customers for the alcoholic drinks are the hotels like Serena, Best Western, and PC

who provide foreign customers with these products. The non-alcoholic drinks are sold in local

markets as well as exported internationally. Furthermore, sometimes hotels also forward a

customer’s request to brew certain special type of combination of raw materials to provide them

with a required form of alcohol. Customer satisfaction has been the priority according to the

representatives of the firm.

EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT/EMPOWERMENT

Low level workers are restricted and are not allowed to take any significant decisions. BS

(Bottling Superintendent) is authorized to take immediate decisions in case of any

problem/issues. Otherwise the issues are addressed by TM (Technical Manager). Employees are

kept in strict parameters within the working environment as the firm is producing alcohol which

is a regular attention of critics.

PROCESS FLOW

As there are many products produced simultaneously, but the primary product is Beer.

Figure 7: Production Process of Beer [Source: Interview conducted]

The brewing process begins when the barley grain is soaked in water, thereby facilitating

germination, and then drying and curing the grain through

kilning. The barley has now turned into barley malt.

The mill uses steel rollers to crack the grain open before it

enters the mash tun. After the mixture of malts are cracked open

by the mill they are mixed with warm waters in the German built mash tun. The mash is then

pumped sparged (sprayed) with hot water; this helps extract all the sugars from the malt as

possible.

The base of beer, or "wort", is then pumped into the brew

kettle where it is boiled, concentrated and clarified. The

wort is now cooled before it is moved to a fermentation

cellar where it will become beer. In order to speed the

cooling process it is passed through a heat exchanger (Whirl

pool).

After the wort is cooled it is pumped into a fermentation tank located in the tun room, where

especially cultured yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiac, is added to induce fermentation at 20-21º C

over the next 48 to 56 hours. After the beer has been cold cellared and matured in the fermented

it is passed through a filter.

Murree Brewery's bottling line is made up of several components. At the heart of the system is

counter-pressured filler which is capable of filling 15000 bottles per hour.

SUPPLER’S PARTNERSHIP

Molasses are stored in enormous holding tanks as (sugar-cane etc.) are

seasonal products and that is why stores are filled up to 8000 metric tons of

material in a single point in time to avoid any supply shortage. Molasses

supplier ShahTaj sugar industries (Mandi Bahauddin) are amongst the oldest

supplier of the company and are preferred from local sugar mills due to old

relations and second reason is that the sugar extracting

machines in ShahTaj are out dated and are unable to extract all of the sugar from

sugarcane, leaving a good content of sugar in the molasses, which increases the

quality of the alcoholic products.

There is a huge tank present in the parking area of the factory where the supplier

deposit the liquid chemicals required for the production. Before this tank

suppliers had to enter into the factory and unload in the different tanks in the

56 15 | P a g e

Page 16: Murree Brewery (TQM) Total Quantity Management Final Report

factory causing pauses in the production line. There are various supplier of the liquid and

chemicals of the company, depending upon the production requirements.

A warehouse is maintained in the brewery to store the barley. 50% of

the barley is from local market of Pakistan (rich in sugar contents but

light in flavor) and 50% of it is from Australia (rich in flavor but low in

sugar contents). They are mixed in a

specific ratio during malt formation.

There is no fix supplier in the local

market; barley is taken according to the requirement upon

mutually agreed price, whereas imported barley is brought

from West Australia.

Bottles are provided by MG (Murree Glass).

After the agreement there must be no delay or shortage of the material. (Supplier will be

held responsible.)

PERFORMANCE MEASURE

Murree Brewery assessed working of different departments (such as Whiskey,

Beer, Non-Alcoholic etc.) using the performance measure of “Bottling”. Using

this technique for more the 150 years, company measures every department in

terms of bottling output. Managers (Distiller and Brewer) at the production

plants are quite satisfied with this performance measure.

QUALITY COST

Like all standardized production plants Murree Brewery incur a heavy cost to maintain the

quality of its products. There are many cost associated such as Prevention/ Precautionary cost,

Internal/ Production line failure cost, External/

Supplier/ Distributer failure cost. But the most

significant is the “Appraisal Cost” in fact it is a

complete system in the reputed organization, a system

of ‘check and balance’ is conducted for every product.

From Central Lab to Production line each and every

step is directed towards the quality assurance of the

products, and are compared with international

(alcoholic) products in terms of quality.

There are lots if issues (political, economic etc.) and blockages (mechanical, electricity short-fall

etc.) in production lines but in its long history of successful business Murree Brewery production

plant (Rawalpindi) have never incurred a major shut down.

Idle time of the machinery and plant is utilized in maintenance whereas the idle time of the

employees are consumed in other department.

56 17 | P a g e

Page 18: Murree Brewery (TQM) Total Quantity Management Final Report

BENCHMARKING

Standards are maintained at each level of production, and as a bench mark all the products of the

company are compared to the competitor or other related products. For non-alcoholic drinks

products are compared to local market and alcoholic drinks are benchmarked according to the

international market and standards (for example: Whiskies produced by Murree Brewery are

benchmark with Scottish Whiskies). Benchmarks are constantly monitored and are changed upon

the customer and market demand changes such as shape of bottles, labels, designs etc are edited

but quality levels and benchmarks are maintained even at high cost.

QUALITY FUNTION DEPLOYMENT

‘Segmentation strategy’ (segmenting alcoholic and non-alcoholic markets) is the tool exercised

in the organization for understanding and defining customer needs and turning them into

products requirements.

Mouth feel: is the perception of body in the beer and is caused by the residual proteins and

dextrins in the beer.

Flavor: By far the most important and enjoyed element of drinking a beer is its flavor.

Finish: (Also called after-taste.)  The lingering sensation after a beer has been swallowed is

called the finish.

Bouquet: Hops alone determine the bouquet of a beer.

STATISTICAL PROCESS CONTROL

As mentioned earlier Murree Brewery is inline with the traditional method of production

therefore ‘Check/ Tally Bars Sheets’ are used for the process control. Although this is an out

dated technique but still employees prefer this technique as it is in line with the history and

tradition of the organization is easy to understand as compared to new and complex methods.

RECOMMENDATIONS

As Chris Everson said, "Nobody is perfect in this world; everybody has their faults." Murree

Brewery has no such problem areas in terms of quality, as each and every product is approved

after rigorous lab test and analysis, and every batch under production is inspected after few

minutes by the quality department. There has not been a single major issue regarding the quality

of any product in the history of the company. Testing of the products is done up to international

research level. But there were some recommendations that can improve the quality and

productivity structure of the company.

As mentioned earlier the company is keeping its old classical manner of production in

practice, but employees feel that updating the plant and equipment (not the infrastructure)

will improve the quality standards as well as make the production more efficient and

operator friendly.

In the area of supplier’s partnership it is observed that Murree Brewery has enormous

amount of supplies and finished goods storing capacity but the company is experiencing

immense cost in Storing Expenses (both in terms of land and cash). It is recommended

that if the company maintains a common warehouse with its suppliers for raw material

and a common warehouse with its distributor for finished goods it will reduce a huge

amount of sum in the expenses and will provide vacant area in the factory that can be

used for the expansion of the business.

56 19 | P a g e

Page 20: Murree Brewery (TQM) Total Quantity Management Final Report

Performance measure ‘Bottling’ is outdated because during the visit it was detected that a

lot material (such as glass bottles) were damaged and wasted during the production. It is

suggested that if the company updates its performance measures or edit the current it will

give a true picture of the efficiency of the production line (department). Instead of just

relaying on the output, company must focus on comparing its input to its output

(productivity theory) than the company can get a true picture of the performance of

different departments.

According to a senior officer, Murree Brewery is on the top in terms of quality because of

two reason one is the traditional production techniques and second is the HR, but in the

previous years company is neglecting its most valuable asset i.e. HR. Although company

pays special attention towards the managerial level employees by sending them for

training scions abroad (in other breweries and distilleries) but front line employees are

uncared. If they are provided with special training programs and refresher courses, than

indeed this will take the quality of the products to a new level. Compensation can also be

helpful in improving employee’s motivation.

ACTION PLANS

Latest and the most efficient beverages plants must be searched in the international

market. Engineers must replace the old plant and machinery in such a way that this

process of transformation does not cause any damage to the building and its classic looks.

In short ‘bringing innovate technology in the vintage building’.

Murree Brewery must create common warehouses with its suppliers (and distributor, if

possible) to increase the element of ‘supplier partnership’. Factory has many store rooms

and humongous containers for the purpose of storage. One way of this is that they can use

this warehouse in corporation with the supplier. The supplier can store finished goods in

those warehouses and the company can use them for obtaining raw material according to

the demand. Both the supplier and company can divide the expenses of the warehouse.

Company can keep its traditional method of performance evaluation intact i.e. bottling

but they can upgrade it to ‘productivity bottling’. Instead of just focusing on the amount

of bottles given as output by a department, the organization can compare the amount of

56 20 | P a g e

Page 21: Murree Brewery (TQM) Total Quantity Management Final Report

material given as input in the department and then compare/match it with the output to

evaluate properly.

Murree Brewery needs to take care of all the employees regardless of their position in the

organization in terms of ‘educating and training for quality’. Defiantly it will be not

possible for the company to send all the employees abroad on visits to other factories/

training scions but they send their senior/mangers level employees. The company can

arrange tutorials for the low level work force by those officials who have successfully

completed their tour.

CONCLUSION

Working with this organization has indeed been rewarding for us, it is not just a factory but a

centuries old tradition which is still alive. Each and every wall of Murree Brewery is a museum

in itself. This was

defiantly a true learning

experience. All the

employees are proud of

their organization,

although the factory

looks outdated but the

employees want to keep

it intact because in their

mind they are

safeguarding heritage which is spread over an era longer than a

millennium. There is no company in this country that can match

Murree Brewery in its rich history and keeping it energetically progressing in the market with its

methods and techniques that some may argue are out dated. Weather it is the beer, whiskey, non

alcoholic beer or even a simple apple drink (Big Apple) many big companies tried to make a

similar product but unfortunately they were unsuccessful. Only Murree Brewery is the company

which is not facing any direct competition in the market in its products and is maintaining its

monopoly for more than 150 years.
