ABOUT KIT KAT

Kit Katis a chocolate-covered wafer biscuit bar confection that was created

by Rowntree's of York, England, and is now produced worldwide by Nestl, which

acquired Rowntree in 1988, except in the United States where it is made under

license by The Hershey Company. Each bar consists of fingers composed of three

layers of wafer, covered in an outer layer of chocolate. Each finger can be snapped

from the bar separately. Bars typically have 2 or 4 fingers. Larger Kit Kat Chunky

bars are also popular.

Use of the name "Kit Kat" or "Kit Cat" for a type of food goes back to the18th century, when mutton pies known as aKit-Katwere served at meetings of the

political Kit-Cat Club in London.

The origins of what is now known as the "Kit Kat" brand go back to 1911,

when Rowntree's, a confectionery company based in York in the United Kingdom,

trademarked the terms "Kit Cat" and "Kit Kat".

The original four-finger bar was developed after a worker at Rowntree's

York Factory put a suggestion in a recommendation box for a snack that "a man

could take to work in his pack" The bar launched on 29 August 1935, under the

title of "Rowntree's Chocolate Crisp" (priced at 2d), and was sold in London and

throughout Southern England.

CADBURY DAIRY MILK: MARKETING MIX

PRICING:

Cadbury Dairy milk is targeted towards people between the age group of 5-

45 and hence is made available at a very affordable price of Rs. 5, Rs.10 and

Rs. 22. The exception to this pricing is its premium range SILK which is

priced higher.

One of the major problems faced by Cadbury in pricing is the effect of

inflation of the cost of raw materials. They have tackled this decision by

reducing the weight of the products and keep the price of the product

unchanged.

Upon interaction with one supplier it was found that a recent increase from

Rs. 20 to Rs. 22 was negatively received in the market and volume of sales

went down.

Profit margin for the dealers is 5% and the profit margin for retailers is at

10%. Wholesalers compensate for this low profit margin by attaining a large

sales turnover.

PROFIT MARGINS

Profit margin for Wholesale 5%

Profit margin for Retailer 10% (12% for above Rs. 10)

The profit percentage in Cadbury for retailers was 12% for all products

above Rs. 10.
