Economic Development Centre, local government agent's office, provincial business ministry,local phone book and yellow pages will all have information that will help you define your targetmarket and provide insights into trends.Azgard9 have strong roots in the foreign market. Thecompany is providing very little of overall products and services to the local market51% Direct Exports, 32% Indirect Exports &17% Local sales.
Customer Complaints Create Profit:
Customer complaints are like medicine. Nobody likes them, but they make us better. Actually,customer complaints are probably more like preventative medicine because they provideadvanced warning about problems.
1) Individual Employees:
Business is becoming increasingly complex and fast-paced. Customer service professionals haveto know their product or service, their company information, the technology that supports it, andhow to communicate all of this to savvy, demanding customers. Even a small gap in knowledgeor skill could cause huge repercussions in terms of lost business.
2) The Company:
More often, the culprit in customer complaints is the actual product or service we provide. Theremay be an inherent flaw in the design. Or there could be a glitch in the distribution channel thatcauses dissatisfaction. Even if everything is perfect, marketing, advertising campaigns, andsalespeople could inflate value and create customer expectations that are impossible to satisfy.
3) The Customer:
As many of us have always suspected, customers actually cause most of the problems theycomplain about. It's not our fault. It's not our employees' fault. Its the customer's fault.
Yet even with these customer complaints there is profit to be mined. Customer education andinnovation are the possible solutions.
Target market identification and evaluation
The process of using income, demographic, and life style characteristics of a market and censusinformation for small areas to identify the most favorable locations.
I collect the data from our reliable marketing resources and then assess that market whether Ishould offer my product in that market or not. In the evaluation step all the feasibility reports areto be made and a complex study has to be done by our marketing experts.

EXTERNAL ENVIIRONMENT
PEST ANALYSIS
8/2/2019 Final Project of IB
20/42
Political Changes
Political factors include government regulations and legal issues and define both formaland informal rules under which the firms operate. The rule and regulations that theAZGARD 9 industry follows are as follows:
Tax Policies
General sales tax is enhanced from 15 % to 16 % including sales tax services underthe Provincial Sales Tax Ordinance, etc.
Due to the increase in the general rates of sales tax, the rate sales tax on the naturalgas has been increased from 24 % to 25 %.
The government has put special excise duty of 2 % as well.

The company confident that all pending issues will be ultimately resolvedwithout any additional liability.

At present, the labor policy as approved in year 2002 is in force.

Environment regulations
At present Pakistan textile industries follow the Pakistan Environmental ProtectionAct,1997.
The Pakistan government has now become conscious of the environmentalpollution.
But still there are many factors that are prevailing up till now and are the cause ofthe unrest.
Moreover, the geographical region where Pakistan is located, having the neighborssuch as India and Afghanistan, and the pertaining international situation regardingthe war against terrorism, not only the direct investors have stepped back even theinvestors who have made investments in the country are backing up. These factorsaffected the textile industries in Pakistan.
Economic Factors:
Pakistan, with a population of about 18 million people has undergone a remarkable macroeconomic growth during the last few years but the main and the core problems of theeconomy are still unsolved. Inflation is one of the core problems. The inflation in the year2008 has recorded to be the highest according to the Federal Bureau of Statistic. Theconsumers are mostly pessimistic about the economic conditions of the country as theeconomy is going in downward direction these days. Economic factors cannot be excludedfor operating any business including textile. Following are the factors affectingThe macro economy:
Economic Growth
The textile sector growth continued 7.85% in 2008-09, which is slightly more moderatethan 7.12% for the year 2007. Economic conditions are not very sound. The increasinginflation, imposition of new taxes, rising fuel charges and changes in governmenteconomic policies has discouraged investment in textile. If Pakistan keeps on gettingbetter grants and loans waivers or if any other economy boosting factor such as controlledinflation rate and economic growth take place, it willBenefit the entire industry and also for azgard9 as well.
Inflation Rate
Inflation is one of these core problems. This thing is really hurting the purchasing powerof Pakistani consumers. The inflation in year 2009 has recorded to be the highestaccording to the Federal Bureau of Statistics. Consumer Price jumped to 17.86% in March2009 according to the statistics given by Federal Bureau of Statistics.
Interest rate
The monetary policy of Pakistan is controlled by the state bank of Pakistan. The statebank, in order to control the inflation has taken measures and tightened up the monetarypolicies. Pakistan has raised its main interest rate to 13.5 % to help fight inflation.
8/2/2019 Final Project of IB
22/42
Exchange Rate
The exchange rates of Pakistan with respect to the U.S. dollar, has declined. The Pakistanirupee has depreciated since the proclamation of emergency rule in November 2007 and
especially in current democratic govt. this rate is at very low side. In other words we cansay that the value of the rupee has fallen as the time passed by.
Social Change
Health consciousness among the people of Pakistan has been increasing day by day. The citizens of Pakistan are getting aware of their duties in order to maintain the
healthy environment.
Government is taking several steps in order to educate, how important it is for the
people to live in the healthy environment.
The government discourages the operation of the industries with in the city bycharging these factories with environmental charges.
By the passage of time, the people as well along with the government are discouragingsuch activities and demand for clean environment
Technology Change
The Pakistani industries not only have to compete among them selves but with theinternational market as well.
Pakistan is steadily automating particularly its manufacturing sectors to stir qualityproduction and ensure skilled management, as it would ensure a good place for thecountry in the global competitive market.
Technological factors can lower barriers to entry, reduce minimum efficientproduction levels, and influence outsourcing decisions.
In recent years, technology has been seen to be progressing at very fast rate all over theworld. It has helped to raise income and alleviate poverty in the develop ing countries.
Cultural environment:
The high speed passionate pursuit of progress through teamwork; Azgard believe in team workand all the departments follow the hierarchy levels of reporting strictly.A culture is the valuesand practices shared by the members of the group. Company Culture, therefore, is the sharedvalues and practices of the company's employees.
Company culture is important because it can make or break your company. Companies with anadaptive culture that is aligned to their business goals routinely outperform their competitors.

23/42
Some studies report the difference at 200% or more. To achieve results like this for yourorganization, you have to figure out what your culture is, decide what it should be, and moveeveryone toward the desired culture.
Company cultures evolve and they change over time. As employee leave the company and
replacements are hired the company culture will change. If it is a strong culture, it may notchange much. However, since each new employee brings their own values and practices to thegroup the culture will change, at least a little. As the company matures from a startup to a moreestablished company, the company culture will change. As the environment in which thecompany operates (the laws, regulations, business climate, etc.) changes, the company culturewill also change.
These changes may be positive, or they may not. The changes in company culture may beintended, but often they are unintended. They may be major changes or minor ones. Thecompany culture will change and it is important to be aware of the changes.
Assess The Company Culture:
There are many ways to assess your company culture. There are consultants who will do it foryou, for a fee. The easiest way to assess your company's culture is to look around. How do theemployees act; what do they do? Look for common behaviors and visible symbols.
Listen. Listen to your employees, your suppliers, and your customers. Pay attention to what iswritten about your company, in print and online. These will also give you clues as to what yourcompany's culture really is.
Determine The Desired Company Culture:
Before you can change the company culture, you have to decide what you want the companyculture to look like in the future. Different companies in different industries will have differentcultures. Look at what kind of a culture will work best for your organization in its desired futurestate. Review your mission, vision and values and make sure the company culture you aredesigning supports them.
Cultural Environment of Target Country:
As Azgard 9 is targeting the whole world but the most targeting country in the world is Europe. Iam targeting all type of people for Denim Jeans thats why jeans can easily be worn by male,
female and children. As Europe is the largest country for wearing jeans and also the mostfashionable country in the world thats why I am targeting it for the people. And after thatAzgard 9 is targeting Italy because in Italy, they have a company named by Montebello. Culturalenvironment of Europe and Italy is given below:
8/2/2019 Final Project of IB

Europe:
Europe has significant cultural diversity together with exceptional ancient architecture, builtenvironment and artifact collections which attract millions of tourists every year to its historicalcities and sites, museums, libraries, etc. However. In particular, environmental change further
complicated by the increasing influence of climate change presents one significant threat to thesustainability of Europes cultural heritage.There has been a long tradition in and awareness ofthe importance of cultural heritage since Antiquity, in particular at national level. This idea ofrestoration really crystallized in the 19th and 20th centuries, with these ideas being put intopractice also at European and global level. Indeed the first EU initiatives in cultural heritagewere undertaken from 1974, while the first research projects supported by the EuropeanCommission in this field began in 1986. Since 1993, the EU Treaty (Article 167) specifies thatsafeguarding moveable and immoveable cultural heritage of European significance must betreated as a priority for the EU and is the legal basis for protection initiatives including researchon cultural heritage. From its beginning in 1986, cultural heritage research in the EU has beensupported and managed within the framework of the Commission's environmental research
programmes; since then, some 120 projects have been supported involving more than 500stakeholder organizations from all European countries.
Italy:
A country of remarkable beauty and varying regional characteristics, Italy is unmistakably aplace of cultural achievement and historical pride. Italian culture permeates every aspect of lifeand as a result, for those wishing to integrate effectively into Italian society or perhaps hoping tosuccessfully break the Italian business market, an understanding of this culture is a vital tool.Since Italy became a nation state in 1861, the country has experienced numerous historicalupheavals and periods of cultural influence. A founding member of the EU, Italy has contributed
substantially to European and Political integration. Italy's infamous north and south divideprovides a diversified economy consisting of both industrial and agricultural industries that havebeen strengthened by the success of many small family-owned businesses and a strongmanufacturing sector. With such a firm emphasis on family orientation and and national pride itis essential to gain an awareness of the country's culture, business practices and people beforeyou consider doing business in Italy.
Italy business Part 2 - Working in Italy (Pre-departure):
Working practices in Italyo Punctuality in the Italian business environment, as a rule, is taken very seriously.
However, even though you will be expected to arrive on time, your Italiancounterparts may not always adhere to this rule.
o The Italian bureaucracy and legal systems are rather slow; therefore expectdecisions and business actions to take time.
o Generally speaking, the best times to make business appointments are in themorning between 10 a.m. and 11 a.m., or after 3p.m.
Structure and hierarchy in Italian companies

25/42
o Italian business organizations generally have a fixed hierarchical structure, with aclear division between the ranks and little association amongst employees ofvarying status.
o In larger traditional Italian businesses, this hierarchy is noticeably present in thecordata or chain of command. Only the most senior managers make decisions.
Working relationships in Italyo Personal relationships in Italy are critical for successful business negotiations, but
generally take a long time to develop.o In accordance with Italian business culture, there exists a great respect for
authority, power and age. Therefore, the most senior or eldest person present inbusiness and social events should always be given preferential treatment.
o Generally speaking, when working in teams, it is becoming increasingly commonfor Italian business colleagues to address each other more informally.
Italy business Part 2 - Doing business in Italy
Business practices in Italyo During business meetings in Italy it is common to express open disagreement and
constructive conflict. Initial meetings are often informal opportunities forevaluating colleagues and establishing relationships, not making businessdecisions.
o When greeting your Italian business colleagues use last names and, if known,appropriate, professional titles until invited to do otherwise.
o The exchanging of business cards should take place only at the beginning of thefirst business meeting. Ensure that your card is translated into Italian on one sideand that you include any advanced educational qualifications and your full titleand position.
Business etiquette in Italy (Do's and Don'ts) :
DO maintain eye contact while talking. This is a sign to your Italian business colleaguesthat you are sincere and honest.
DO shake hands with everyone when being introduced during a business or socialmeeting. Men should wait for women to extend their hand first.
DO ensure that you knock before entering an office in Italy and always close the doorbehind you.

5. Tactics & Strategies:
8/2/2019 Final Project of IB
26/42
Primary Target Selection:
In primary target selection, I focus on the main product which is more profitable and haveexporting power which is Denim Garments. The department of garment division started itsproduction in 1996. They are fulfilling the initial minimum order quantity 7000 pieces. But, now
the total production of the garment division is per day 12000 pieces. Azgard 9 is primarilytargeting the Denim Garments because of some reasons which would be described in the nextportion.
Product/Service selection for primary Target Market:
Azgard 9 selected the DENIM GARMENTS for primary target market. Azgard 9 is producingJEANS and exporting all over the world. Azgard 9 is second largest exporter of JEANS inPakistan. The services which Azgard 9 is using to target and focus on jeans are given below:Pakistan can produce Cotton as much as its required and hence company is using Cotton to
make Threads in a fine quality. If I take example of some other country like BRAZIL, then itcant be possible in that country to produce cotton so Pakistan has a competitive advantage of
cotton and company is using that advantage as a profit. Choosing a method of Market Entry:
Azgard 9 is itself a big company and hence not using any Franchising method. Azgard 9 haslicense and they have already registered their company as this company is very old so they arenot using any franchising method or dont have any franchise. Their registered office is situatedat Ismail Aiwan-e-science, off shahrah-e-Roomi, Lahore.
Selection of Distribution Partners and Promotion:
Azgard 9 has sub units which are giving profit and promotion. These sub units are in the form ofCompanies which are given below:
1. Agritech Limited (AGL) known as Pak American Fertilizers Limited.2. Hazara Phosphate Fertilizers private Limited (HPFL).
3. Fartial AB (FAB).
4. Montebello SRL (MSRL).
6. Finance/Budgeting:
Internal sources of Funding:
The challenging trading conditions have a great impact however the performance of Azgard9
shows a healthy growth trend. However the increase in finance cost was greater than the growth
in income which significantly affected the bottom line. The rapid increase in the finance cost is
basically due to the devaluation of the Pak Rupee. Company had borrowings in foreign
currencies either directly or indirectly thus effecting the finance cost very badly.

BCG MATRIX:
The BCG growth-share Matrix is a portfolio planning model developed by BruceHenderson of the Boston Consulting Group in the early 1070s. It is based on theobservation that a companys business units can be classified into four categories based on
combinations of market growth and market share relative to the larges competitor, hencethe name growth-share. Market growth serves as a proxy for industry attractiveness, andrelative market share serves as a proxy for competitive advantage.The growth-share matrix thus maps the business unit positions within these two importantdeterminants of profitability. For more effective planning and operations, a multi-businessor multi-product organization should be divided according to its major markets orproducts. Each such entity is called a strategic business unit (SBU).Using this matrix, an organization classified each of such SBU according to the factorsuch as:
8/2/2019 Final Project of IB
30/42
Relative Market Share
Business Growth Rate
Conclusion of BCG matrix:
Under the light of BCG matrix, I can examine that Azgard9 is existing in the category ofQuestion MARK because of low market share 20% and high business growth rate. In orderto be the market leader, Azgard9 has to improve its market position. Presently Azgard9has 9% of the market share and is one of the leading brands in Pakistan with a diversecustomer base. Form above given information we can say that Azgard9 has strong
potential for growth but low market share .So product lines of Azgard9 secured incategory Question marks having high growth and low market share.
INDUSTRY ANALYSIS:
PORTERS FIVE FORCES:Azgard9 is a Pakistanitextile manufacturing and marketing company has a primary targetto textile for an analysis using Michael Porters 5-Forces Model (5-Forces). We haveapplied the 5-Forces analysis into the respective divisions:
Supplier Power
Barriers to Entry Threat of Substitutes Buyer Power and Degree of Rivalry Competitive rivalry
8/2/2019 Final Project of IB
31/42
Suppliers Power:Suppliers in this industry are not concentrated. They act as separate groups competing forthe same project through the bid system that is prevalent in textile Industry. Volume is ofsignificant concern. The Azgard9 is the large textile industry and is not affected in termsof supply volume giving suppliers any leverage.
Buyer Power:Azgard9 is a premier brand and nationwide presence ensures sellout production toPakistani and international customers, due to flexible demand delivery and low downpayments. Buyers have power over when they are concentrated, purchase a significantportion of new production, and pose a credible threat to purchases from competitors.
8/2/2019 Final Project of IB
32/42
Barriers to entry:Identifying the possibility and probability of new entrants in an industry is critical becausethey can intrude on market share and profitability of existing competitors. Economies ofscale, product differentiation, capital requirements, switching costs and government policyall affect the textile Industry. The economies of scale realized by azgard9 make it almost
impossible for new entrants.The governmental red tape that must be overcome in this industry is paramount to thesuccess of a prospective textile Company.
Threats of substitute:The threat of substitutes entails a consideration of such things as switching costs, buyerinclination to substitute and the price-performance trade-off of substitutes. Mostindividuals would like to make an investment with the purchase of a particular product ofan organization.
Degree of competitive rivalry:
The growth rate of the textile market is tremendous especially azgard9; however, it islimited in many respects. The growth for the demand and the production is enormous. Webelieve the growth in the actual number of competitors is merely a related effect of thecostly barriers to entry. In recent days, the situation of textile industry is not very good asshutting down of power looms due to electricity disaster. The market is both mature anddeveloping at the same time. The maturity of the market can be illustrated by theInterventions and helps to carry out a cost benefit analysis of a policy provided thatgovernments know the tradeoff between efficiency and non efficiency go als.
Competitive Strategy:
o Better performance
o Providing value added products
o Providing on demand washing effects
o Adopted pull and push strategy
o Providing better products at lower rates

Internal Environment:
SWOT Analysis:
The SWOT analysis provides information that is helpful in matching the firm's resourcesand capabilities to the competitive environment in which it operates. As such, it isinstrumental in strategy formulation and selection. The following diagram shows how aSWOT analysis fits into an environmental scan:
Strength:
The production of the textile products (Cotton, Yarn, and Polyester) in Azgard9 is
completely automated.
The company has imported the machinery for spinning process.
The use of this advance machinery has helped the company produce good quality garments
with much efficiency. Azgard9 factory is the only garments factory that produces both ready made garments and
finished products of yarn.
Azgard9, having a good brand image, has the advantage to charge their customers at a
higher price than the other competitors.
8/2/2019 Final Project of IB
34/42
The price of Azgard9 garments is high in the international market as compared to its local
competitors who are involved in the exports as well.
The company brand image is very strong in the market, both local and international.
The Azgard9 factory compensates its employees, better than all the other industries.
Weakness:
The absence of certain strengths may be viewed as a weakness. For example, each of the
following may be considered weaknesses of AZGARD9:
Delay in capacity expansion
Large investment needed for business expansion
Workers leave the organization after working short time
Lack of online market facility to access international buyers
Disputes between Middle level and Lower management
Relative weak position in textile market as compare to the other textile mills in Pakistan
The cost of freight charges further reduces the retention price of the garments, hampering
the profitability of the company.
Wastes produce by the company may dangerous for human health.
8/2/2019 Final Project of IB
35/42
OPPERTUNITIES:
Moving into new market segments that offer improved profits
Large workshops for training and development.
A developing market such as the Internet.
A market vacated by an ineffective competitor.
Support of the power looms unions
Better Competitive Position.
This has given Azgard9 a golden opportunity to capture the maximum market with very
less competition.
The demand of garments and yarn outside Pakistan has been increasing rapidly, providing
Azgard9 a good chance to explore these markets.
Azgard9 is also exploring new markets for the potential customers of readymade
garments, which will give Azgard9 a competitive edge against the competitors.
Threats:
Price wars with competitors.
A new competitor in the home market.
Fear of Privatization.
Tuff Competition
Globalization is the factor which brings the strong companies in Pakistan
A competitor has a new, innovative product or service. .
Competitors have superior access to channels of distribution .

9. Global Supply chain Management:
International Manufacturing Strategies:
Their manufacturing strategies are that they manufacture and produce those jeans and all theirproducts locally but supply and sell it at international level. Their strategy is their company inMONTIBALO which is in Italy. Its a very strong strategy that they produce locally and sell alltheir products at international level. They export in all over the world but their target market isEurope and their target people are all people like men, women and children. So its a very strong
strategy that they produce in Pakistan and sell all their products at international level.
Quality:
Their quality measures on every level. It means their quality is seems to be measurable ineverything. Their Quality is in their Fabric which they use in making their jeans. Their quality isin their cloth which they use in their products, their quality is in their colors which they use intheir products, and their quality is in every department which they use for making their products.So quality measures on every level.
Supplier Networks:
Their supplier networks are different in every country. Azgard 9 uses B2B for networking. Theirsupplier networks are everywhere in the world. They use local supply chains and sometimes B2Bnetworks.
Inventory Management:
Inventory management is the active control program which allows the management of sales,purchases and payments. Inventory management software helps create invoices, purchase orders,receiving lists, payment receipts and can print bar coded labels. An inventory managementsoftware system configured to the companies warehouse, retail or product line will help to createrevenue for the company. The Inventory Management will control operating costs and provide
better understanding.Why inventory management is useful for Azgard 9:Inventory Management and Inventory Control must be designed to meet the dictates of themarketplace and support the company's strategic plan. The many changes in market demand,new opportunities due to worldwide marketing, global sourcing of materials, and newmanufacturing technology, means many companies need to change their Inventory Managementapproach and change the process for Inventory Control. Despite the many changes thatcompanies go through, the basic principles of Inventory Management and Inventory Control
8/2/2019 Final Project of IB
40/42
remain the same. Some of the new approaches and techniques are wrapped in new terminology,but the underlying principles for accomplishing good Inventory Management and Inventoryactivities have not changed. The Inventory Management system and the Inventory ControlProcess provides information to efficiently manage the flow of materials, effectively utilizepeople and equipment, coordinate internal activities, and communicate with customers.
Inventory Management and the activities of Inventory Control do not make decisions or manageoperations; they provide the information to Managers who make more accurate and timelydecisions to manage their operations.
The basic building blocks for the Inventory Management system and Inventory Control activitiesare:
Sales Forecasting or Demand Management.
Sales and Operations Planning.
Production Planning.
Material Requirements Planning.
Inventory Reduction.
The emphases on each area will vary depending on the company and how it operates, and whatrequirements are placed on it due to market demands. Each of the areas above will need to beaddressed in some form or another to have a successful program of Inventory Management andInventory Control. Azgard 9 warehouses are everywhere in the world so they hire staff forinventory management. They prepare a proper system for their inventory management. Theirinventory is of every department like making, producing, dying.
