Segment
POSITION
ING
Is and always remain flagship brand. The punch by the company for advertising this product life. ‘Real taste of Life’,
itself defines the positioning of the product.
Although positioned internationally as an energy bar, 5 star was positioned on an emotional platform in india during the late 1980s. Symbolizing togetherness, 5 star
was originally targeted at teenagers.
It was the first cadbury’s chocolate to have crunch in it. It was targeted as a funky chocolate to add spark to life.
Positioned much further on the functional scale of 5 star, Perk was meant to be light snack-product for subduing the first
pangs of hunger.
Positioning is simply concentrating on an idea or even a word defines that company in the mind of the consumer.
POSTIONING
Chocolate Market ShareThe Indian chocolate market is getting bigger and better. While on one hand, the premium segment (composing imported varieties) is opening up on the other, companies like Cadbury India are launching indigenous product made to international standards. Of the 20,000 tonne chocolate market worth about Rs. 400 crore, Cadbury account for about 70% followed by Nestle, with a share of around 20%. Amul has about 5% of the market, with minor player taking the rest. The battle, though, is between Cadbury and Nestle. Though with a much smaller portfolio, Nestle is putting up a tough fight.From a treat for kids, chocolate are now being positioned near meal substitutes, thanks to the initiative taken by the Cadbury India during early nineties. The market itself has become broader based, in the sense adults are an important target segment now. The reposting of Cadbury’s Dairy Milk in 1994 as the ‘real taste of life (through the Slice of Life and Cricket commercial by Ogilvy and Mather) grew the entire milk chocolate by 20%, and gave the Cadbury’s range – 5 Star, Gems, Éclairs, Fruit & Nut, Crackle, Nutties, Butterscotch & Tiffns – a new lease of life. In other words, it facilitated the repositioning of Cadbury’s sub brands in the basket. Some of the strategic clicked, while other did not quite take off. The company is pushing the gifting segment, through occasion linked gifts. Chocolates contribute to 64% of Cadbury’s turnover. Confectionary sales accounting for 12% of turnover is contributed largely by Éclairs. The company attempted expanding its confectionary product portfolio, with launch of sugar based confectionary goodly and fruits, without much success.

Cadbury Bournvita is among the oldest brands in the Malt Food category with a rich heritage and has always been known to provide the best nutrition to aid growth and all round development. Launched in 1948, throughout its history, Cadbury Bournvita has continuously re-invented itself in terms of product, packaging, promotion & distribution. The Cadbury lineage and rich brand heritage has helped the brand maintain its leadership position and image over the last 60 years.The brand has been an enduring symbol of mental and physical health ever since it was launched. This layered with the great Cadbury chocolate taste has made the brand distinct from other offerings. It is hardly surprising then, that Bournvita enjoys a major presence in the Malt Food market.It is a universal truth that mothers attach a lot of emotional importance to nourishment while bringing up their children. However, children always look out for the tastiest option to make their daily dose of milk more enjoyable.Cadbury offers two options to capture this appeal: Cadbury Bournvita, with its popular chocolate taste, and its latest offering, Cadbury Bournvita 5 Star Magic, leveraging the rich chocolate and caramel flavour ofCadbury 5 Star.Our Advertising:Tayyari jeet ki! (preparing to win)Today’s world is an increasingly competitive place for children. They aren’t just expected to do better, but also do more. Keeping this in mind, Cadbury launched the new Bournvita in 2010 and launched a new campaign Tayyari jeet ki! (preparing to win)
The nutritional drink or the health drink industry has been marked by competition from various companies in the past few years. The health drink manufacturers in India have tried to retain their brand image by improving their product quality & by meeting consumer’s expectation. But only one health drink has successfully captured the heart of millions of Indians & that is………..Cadbury Bourn Vita.In spite of the fact that our health drink market is flooded with newer fun drinks for kids, Cadbury Bournvita has made a niche for itself as a drink for children who are mentally and physically active. Every bright and sportive kid down the block must be drinking Cadbury Bournvita. In fact nobody has forgotten the jingle screaming ’’BOURN VITA!!’’
Product:Cadbury India Ltd launched Cadbury Bournvita, a chocolate health drink in 1947 in India. But even before launching its new health product in the Indian market, Bournvita was one of the most loved chocolate drinks around the world. Bournvita is a combination of 2 words, “Brown†& “Vitaâ€. � �Brown because its brown in colour & Vita because it has lots of vitamins.If I were to ask you all a simple question like “what is Cadbury Bournvitaâ€â€¦.I am sure you would say “Woh powder jo mummy doodh �mein milati haiâ€â€¦.But that’s not what Bournvita is all about. It’s �a nutritional drink which acts as a dietary supplement providing nourishment along with good taste & flavors.For today’s kids who detest milk in its pure state unless flavored, this is an ideal drink. It has its own unique flavor, and the taste is rich and full-bodied. It’s so easy to prepare, just instant mix it into your milk. Even a child can manage this for himself when he is in a hurry to run off to play! Many children I have known just scoop up a spoonful of Bournvita fine granules into their mouth and crunch away happily…goes to prove its taste bud friendly value for kids.

Price:Normally, price is the most important element in deciding the fate of any product. While purchasing any health drinks however, a housewife or a mother who is the ultimate buyer gives price secondary importance. She will carefully study the taste & nutritive values in the health drinks. I agree that Bournvita is one of the most expensive health drinks in the market (Rs.101 for 500gms) but still due to its good taste & great nutritive values it has captured the majority of the market.
Target Market:Brown HFD’s target audience has always been kids who are in the age group of 7-15. Why a HFD targets audience in this age group? The answer to this is very simple. Most of the children in this age group have casual eating habits and milk is like a curse for them. This is were a HFD comes into picture the work of HFD is not only to add flavor to the milk but also act as supplement which can add nutrition to their child. The other advantage of having this segment as target market is HFD are mostly taken with milkAnd the largest consumption of milk is seen in this segment.
Place:The distribution pattern followed by Cadbury’s Bourn vita is more or less same as the traditional channel of distribution. Cadbury’s distribution network encompasses 2100 distributors and 4,50,000 retailers. The company has a total consumer base of over 65mn. Besides use of IT to improve distribution logistics, Cadbury is also attempting to improvedistribution quality. To address the issues of product stability, it has installed coolers at several outlets. This helps in maintaining consumption in summer, when sales usually dip due to the fact that the heat affects product quality and thereby off take.
Promotion:Bournvita always comes up with consumer promotion activities from time to time e.g. giving free gifts like plastic mugs, chess game or ludo etc. They also come up with the scheme of extra Bournvita for the same price. The ads had very cleverly promoted this drink for intelligent school kids through organizing the famous Bournvita Quiz Contest between different schools. This was a fantastic gimmick on television, which had caught on so well, that even adults would spare some time to watch it without fail. The Quiz Master Derek O’Brian was loved by all, the young and the old alike. This Advertising concept was so successful, that they even came out with the Bournvita General Knowledge Book (a mini encyclopedia). Cartoon Network and Cadbury India has announced a one-year promotional license agreement. Bournvita positions itself as a healthy and nutritious drink for kids. The first promotion is the Toon Mug offer. A 500 gram Bournvita pack comes with a mug featuring some of the best loved Cartoon Network characters. Toon buffs get a choice of over six toon mugs including The Power puff Girls, The Flintstones, Scooby-Doo,Johnny Bravo, Dexter and Tom & Jerry. The Bournvita promotion is being supported by television commercials and in-store advertising.
Packaging:Earlier packaging was not given the kind of importance to what it’s gaining now. Marketershave now realized the importance of packaging in today’s competitive market.Hence they are concentrating on various aspect of packing such as the color, material used to make the package & cost. They use glass jars for packaging which do not allow moisture to get in the product and also increases its shelf life.They have also introduced the refill packs so their no problem of buying Jars every now & then. They have also worked upon the color which is now Red & Purple against the old one Brown & Yellow because kids love bright colors.
Launched in India in March 2011 the delicious combination of dark chocolate biscuit and vanilla cream was first introduced to the world in 1912. That original formula was so perfect that it has hardly been modified since. Each year more than 7.5 billion Oreo Biscuits are eaten, making it the world’s No. 1 biscuit. Paired with a glass of milk, it is the perfect snack.Children across the world teach their parents the fun way to eat Oreo – twisting the biscuit open, licking the cream, and then dunking the biscuit in milk. It’s no wonder then, that families the world over, come together over this tasty snack.Twist, Lick, Dunk! (TLD) guideYou don’t just eat an Oreo, you enjoy it. So here’s the official guide to Twist, Lick, Dunk!
Step 1: Grab your Oreo biscuit. Holding each chocolatey biscuit, twist them in opposite directions. Now gently pull them apart revealing the shiny vanilla cream!Step 2: Lick the creamy filling right away. This is the simplest part isn’t it? Don’t lick it all off, leave some for the dunk!Step 3: Put the two biscuit halves together. Now, holding it with your fingertips, dip the whole Oreo in your full glass of milk. Let it soak in the milky goodness before you chew it away.Oreo facts:There’s a lot of exciting stuff about Oreo you may not know yet. Here’s a list of them to surprise your friends withThe design on every Oreo biscuit consists of 12 flowers, 12 dots and 12 dashes per side.Because everybody twists, licks and dunks their Oreo’s, somebody actually invented a Biscuit Dunker, designed to keep your fingers from getting wet when you dunk your Oreo Biscuit into the glass of milk.The first Oreo biscuit was sold in 1912.If every Oreo Biscuit ever made were stacked on top of each other, the pile would reach to the moon and back more than five times.50% of Oreo biscuit eaters twist their biscuit apart before eating it, with women twisting them open more often than men.If all the Oreo biscuits ever made were placed side-by-side, they would encircle the earth 381 times at the equator.The crème filling used in Oreo biscuits in one year could ice all the wedding cakes served in the United States for two years! That's 4,724,000 three-tier wedding cakes.Oreo is sold in over a 100 countries and is the best- selling biscuit of the 21st Century.Approximately 25 billion Oreos are eaten per year. (That’s about 70 million per day, or 800 per second!).
Cadbury Éclairs has been present in India since 1971 and has remained a favourite with adults and kids alike. The credit for making éclairs, goes to an English confectionary firm which devised this delicious formula in the 1960s. This tasty wonder with indulgent chocolate wrapped in soft, chewy caramel came to Cadbury in 1971, when Cadbury took over this confectionary firm. In 1994 the brand took on the purple and gold packaging which has been its trademark since then.The brand has remained a favorite and its franchise in India has grown manifold since then. In the year 2009,Cadbury Éclairs was relaunched with an enriched chocolate center The chewy caramel was also made softer improving the product significantly.Cadbury Éclairs is also available in a pocket pack which is preferred by teenagers and heavy consumers who find the brand irresistible.In 2011, Cadbury Éclairs heralded the new year with another exciting addition to its fold - the new Cadbury Eclairs Rich Brownie.
