NESTLE CURRENT STRATEGIES “A social and managerial process where by individual & groups obtains good food and good life through creating and exchanging products and values.”
THE PRICING STRATEGY We can easily observe that Nestle itself is taking active part in social welfare. We see the lower prices of the product as compared to the other FMCGs Company’s products like Unilever and Procter & Gamble. If we look at the prices, we can observe observe that Nestle Nestle is also using its name for the promotion promotional al activities and pricing strategies also. They have to maintain their level of efficiency and always provide the best at best price. Nestle cares about the customers. As the time is of inflation, nestle is trying to overcome the pricing problems to the extent they can do. Nestlé’s point point of view view is “Onl “Only y by unde unders rsta tand ndin ing g cons consum umer er need needs s can can we serv serve e our our consumers to the fullest”. Profit earning is the core aim of every company but in case of Nestle their profit margin is small just for the sake of customers trust and happiness. Nestle is also one of the leader of retaining their customers. This is one reason of their success.
PROMOTIONAL STRATEGIES Nestle launch was, perhaps one of the most aggressive as far as processed Nestle product concerned, with TV, TV, print ads, radio commercials, billboards billboards and plenty plenty of BTL BTL (bel (below ow the the line line)) acti activi vitie ties s incl includ udin ing g dire direct ct cons consum umer er and and shop shop bran brandi ding ng activities. Due to this aggressive marketing campaign, the competition seems to be getting tougher. So far ads focus towards the younger generation, who want to feel free, young and excited, leading a healthy lifestyle. These ads are appealing a specific social class. They keep the information of the other companies what they are offering. Try to improve their strategies from others so that they can promote their product more. Like more companies are now coming in the market so there is more completion in the market and they have to be up to date from the current situations.

PEST ANALYSIS ANALYSIS POLITICAL FACTORS Nestle believes that, as a general rule, legislation is the most effective safeguard of responsible conduct, although in certain areas, additional guidance to staff in the form of voluntary business principles is beneficial in order to ensure that the highest standards are met throughout the organization.
ECONOMICAL FACTORS Economical factors enhance the appearance of the company and also losing the company. If we see economic factors than Nestlé is conscious of the fact that the success of a corporation is a reflection of the professionalism, conduct and the responsible attitude of its management and employees. Therefore recruitment of the right people and ongoing training and development are crucial.

PORTER FIVE FORCES BUYER POWER Nestle and other consumer product companies face weak buyer power because here here custom customers ers are fragme fragmente nted d and have have little little influe influence nce on prices prices or may be product. But buyers in form of retailers influence and company face very strong UNIVERSITY OF MANAGEMENT AND TECHNOLOGY, LAHORE
10
buyer power for like Makro, Metro, Hyper star etc. they are able to negotiate for pricing with Nestle and other companies like Unilever, PnG, Coca-Cola etc because they purchase and sell so much products of these rivalries.
SUPPLIER POWER We know know that that compan companies ies always always face face some some amount amount of suppli supplier er power power simply simply becau because se of the costs costs they they incur incur when when switch switching ing suppl supplier iers. s. On the other other hand hand suppliers like Farmers, milk-men, Packages Limited etc. they do a great involvement to do trade with Nestle. In case Nestlé becomes aware of any actions or conditions not in compliance with the Code, Nestlé reserves the right to demand corrective measures. Nevertheless bargaining power for both the firms and their suppliers is probably narrow.
THREATS OF NEW ENTRANTS Give Given n the the amou amount nt of capi capita tall inves investm tmen entt need needed ed to ente enterr cert certai ain n segm segmen entt in household or personal consuming products, such as baby food, break fast cereals, pure juices etc, we suspect that threat of new entrants is fairly low in the industry. While at the same time all the multi-national companies like PnG, Unilever including Nestle all have created the positioning in the consumers mind and they are loyal and have retention with them that slow the success rates of new competitors in the market. In some segments within the household consumer-products industry, this may not be the case since a small manufactur manufacturer er could could develop develop a superior superior product, such as confectionaries, and compete with Nestle. The test is whether the small manufacturer can get its products on the shelves of the same retailers as its much larger rivals because they cannot loose anymore profit margins by giving bribe to retailers as they already earn very less amount.
THREATS OF SUBSTITUTES With-in the consumer-products industry threats of substitute influence the success rate of a certain company. People always go for the substitute because of lower prices and convenience. Firms believe that if they can manufacture and package a lower price alternative themselves they would rather accept the marginal revenue from from their their lower lower price price items items than than risk risk comple completel tely y loosin loosing g the sale sale to a privat private e competitor. UNIVERSITY OF MANAGEMENT AND TECHNOLOGY, LAHORE

DEGREE OF RIVALRY As we know the switching cost from one brand to other in this industry is very low. Cons Consum umer ers s in this this cate catego gory ry enjo enjoy y a multi multitu tude de of choi choice ces s for for ever everyt ythi hing ng from from beverages to confectionaries. But as we already discussed many consumers prefer certain brand and they don’t shift so easily. For example it does not cost anything for a consumer to buy one brand of Milk instead of another like Milk-Pak to Haleeb or Olpers. It makes the industry quite competitive and manufacturer try to adopt the Strengths and expose the weaknesses of others.
HUMAN RESOURCE PLANNING Planning encompasses those guidelines which constitute a sound basis for efficient and effective HR Management in the Nestlé Group around the world. They are in esse essenc nce e flex flexib ible le and and dyna dynami mic c and and may may requ requir ire e adju adjust stme ment nt to a vari variet ety y of circumstances. Therefore its implementation will be inspired by sound judgment, fulfil fulfillme lment nt with with local local marke markett laws laws and and commo common n sense sense,, taking taking into into accoun accounts ts the specific context. Its spirit should be respected under all circumstances. As Nestlé is operating all over Pakistan, it is essential that legislation and practices be respected everywhere. Also to be considered is the degree of development of each market and its capacity to advance in the management of their human resources. Should any HR policy conflict with local legislation, local legislation will succeed. These policies are addressed to all those who have a responsibility in managing people as well as to HR professionals. The Nestlé Management and Leadership Principles include the guidelines inspiring all the Nestlé employees in their action and in their dealings dealings with others. others. The Corporate Corporate Business Business Principles Principles refer to all the basic principles which Nestlé endorses and subscribes to on a worldwide basis. Both these documents are the pillars on which the present policy has been built.

RECRUITMENT PROCESS According to latest count, thousands of employees are working in nestle. This is an approximate figure as more hiring has been done in the recent past. Nestlé follows a set process for hiring more employees. The major document in this connection is t he "Recruitment Requisition Form". This document is used in all three instances; such as for:
REPLACEMENT Filling of a near position. Additions to the existing workforce A recruitment opportunity may arise either after discussing or budgeting a position on the resignation of some employee or on an urgent need basis. In all three situations, the department head has to obtain approval from the Managing Director (MD).

MANAGEMENT TRAINEES UNIVERSITY OF MANAGEMENT AND TECHNOLOGY, LAHORE

The procedure for selecting fresh graduates at Nestlé is bit different as the trainees cannot be short listed through their CV's. Management trainees are fresh graduates or they have one year experience at the most. Management trainees are not called directly. They are contacted through their placement officers. Salaries or benefits of the management trainees do not vary with their specialization. Similarly the training period is the same, whether they are selected for marketing or finance.
SUCCESSION PLAN The succession plan at Nestlé is made by the department head. He chooses his own successor. It is the duty of the departmental head to train someone for his work, so that there is a person to takeover in case he is transferred.
JOB ASSESSMENT There is a classified system of job assessment at Nestlé. Accountability incentives in the the form form of busi busine ness ss or faci facili liti ties es are are prov provid ided ed to empl employ oyee ees s perf perfor ormi ming ng well. well. Employees form the internal equity of the company. Therefore, equally justifying measures are taken to satisfy and motivate the employees. (6)
TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT We know “Learning” is part of the Company culture. Each employee, at all levels, either a fresh or old, is conscious of the need to upgrade continuously her/his knowledge and skills. The willingness to learn is therefore a non-negotiable condition to be employed by Nestlé. Training and Development is done on-the-job. Guiding and coaching coaching is part of the responsibilit responsibility y of each manager manager and it is crucial crucial to make each one progress in her/his position. When formal training programs are organized they they shoul should d be purpo purpose se orient oriented ed and and design designed ed to improv improve e releva relevant nt skills skills and competencies as Nestle does. Therefore they are proposed in the framework of individual development programs. As a consequence, attending a program should never be considered as a reward. Role of each manager at Nestle is to assess progress, achieved as a result of training programs. The objective is to retain and UNIVERSITY OF MANAGEMENT AND TECHNOLOGY, LAHORE

motivate employees by offering attractive but realistic career moves allowing them to develop their skills over a long-term period within the framework of economic reality and a changing environment. Each manager has the duty to act as a mentor for his employees. At Nestle formal assessment take place on a standard basis, preferably once a year. Its purpose is to provide feedback on past performance and future potential as well as on other relevant aspects concerning a staff member’s work including the development of his skills and competencies.
