EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The size of global processed food industry is estimated to be valued around US $3.6 trillion
and accounts for three-fourth of the global food sales. Despite its large size, only 6% of
processed foods are traded across borders compared to 16% of major bulk agricultural
commodities. Indian food-processing industry is miniscule in comparison and is estimated to
be US $40 billion and is likely to grow at over 10%, on the basis of an expected GDP growth
rate of 8-8.5% p.a.
With enormous scope for value addition, increase in the consumption of processed food
products in India and many fiscal incentives being planned by the government, this sector is
poised to maintain the growth momentum in the future. Moreover, the advent of the WTO
regime and the possibility of reduced subsidies in developed countries can add to Indias
strengths in food production and processing industry.
India accounts for less than 1.5% of international food trade despite being one of the worlds
major food producers, which indicates huge potential for both investors and exporters. Withrapid increase in the per capita income and purchasing power along with increased
urbanization, improved standards of living, there lies a large untapped opportunity to cater to
1000 million domestic consumers. It is estimated that 300 million upper and middle class
consume processed food. With the convenience needs of dual income families, 200 million
more consumers are expected to move to processed food by 2010. The market size for the
processed foods is thus bound to increase from US $102 billion currently to US $330 billion
by 2014-15 assuming a growth of 10%. The share of the value added products in processedfoods would almost double from US $44 billion currently to US $88 billion during the same
period, growing at the rate of 15%. This presents enormous opportunities for investment in
processed food sector.
Several global food giants and leading Indian industrial enterprises are already making their
presence felt in a big way in the sector. Some of them are Nestle India, Cadbury's India,
Kelloggs, Hindustan Unilever, ITC-Agro, Godrej Foods and MTR Foods.

It is estimated that the food production in India is likely to grow two-fold in the next ten
years. Thus, there is ample of opportunities for investments in food and food-processingtechnologies, equipment, especially in areas of canning, dairy & food-processing, specialty
processing, packaging, frozen food and thermo processing, cold chains and in the area of
food retail.
Ministry of food processing in its Vision 2015 document has estimated the size of processed
food sector to treble, processing level of perishable to increase from 6% to 20%, value
addition to increase from 20 % to 35% and Indias share in global food trade to increase from1.5 % to 3%.
The governments focus towards food processing industry as a priority sector will ensure
policies to support investment in this sector and attract more FDI. India with its vast pool of
natural resources and growing technical knowledge base has strong comparative advantages
over other nations. According to CII estimates, food-processing sector has the potential of
attracting US $33 billion of investment in 10 years and generate employment of 9 million
person-days. The food-processing sector in India is clearly an attractive sector for investment
and offers significant growth potential to investors.
The report outlines the tremendous growth potential in the sector and various opportunities
for investments. We initiate coverage on Ruchi Soya and Lakshmi Energy & Foods with a
BUY recommendation.

GLOBAL PROCESSED FOOD INDUSTRY
The size of global processed food industry is estimated to be valued around US $3.6 trillion
and accounts for three-fourth of the global food sales. Despite its large size, only 6% of
processed foods are traded across borders compared to 16% of major bulk agricultural
commodities. Over 60% of total retail processed food sales in the world are accounted by the
U.S, EU and Japan taken together.
Japan is the largest food processing market in the Asian region, though India and China are
catching up fast and are likely to grow more rapidly. Leading meat-importing countries
namely Japan and South Korea have a developed processed food industry. One of the most
technically advanced food-processing industries globally is Australia as the products
produced are of international standards and at comparatively lower prices. Countries in the
Sub-Sahara African region, Latin America and parts of Asia continue to be on the lower-end
of technology competence in food items. However, Europe, North America, and Japan are on
the higher-end of technology, with a sharper shift towards convenience and diet foods.

INDIAN PROCESSED FOOD INDUSTRY
Food and Agriculture: An overview
India has the second largest arable land of 161 million hectares and has the highest acreage
under irrigation. Next to China, India ranks second largest food producer in the world and has
the potential to immerge the biggest with its food and agricultural sector. India accounts for
less than 1.5% of international food trade despite being one of the worlds major food
producers, which indicates huge potential for both investors and exporters.
Indias GDP is expected to grow in the range of 8 -8.5% in the coming fiscal year, fuelled by
robust investments and buoyant consumer spending. According to Goldman Sachs
projections, Indias GDP will exceed Italys in 2020, Frances in 2020, Germanys in 2025
and Japans in 2035.
The growth estimated is;
Year Indias GDP ($ billion)
2005 604
2020 2014
2025 3174
2030 4935
2035 7854
Excessive controls, low public investment, inadequate infrastructure, poor agri-input
management, distorted pricing and incentives structures, and inadequate credit weighed down
Indias agricultural sector for several decades. The share of agriculture in Indias GDP has
fallen by more than 60% in the past five decades. However, the policy environment is
changing with increase in public investment, fading controls on product marketing and
distribution, better price-discovery mechanisms and improvement in credit availability.

Indian agriculture, particularly food processing and allied activities is thus going through a
major transformation with the government targeting 4% growth for the agri-sector from
2005-2020.
Processed food industry: a sunrise sector
Introduction:
Food-processing industry is significant for Indias development because it has important link
and synergy with industry and agriculture, the two main support of the economy. Total size
of food-processing industry is around US $40 billion growing at 10% and the size of
processing sector is estimated to be US $2.53 billion. The industry is mainly unorganized
with 75% of the processing units belonging to the unorganized category, the organized
category though small, is growing fast. The food production is expected to double in the next
10 years and the consumption of value added food products is expected to grow at a much
faster pace. This growth will benefit the economy, increase agricultural yields, create
employment and raise the standard of living of various associated people. Rising consumer
affluence and economic liberalization is opening up new opportunities in the sector.

The food-processing industry has been identified as a focus area for development and has
been included in the priority-lending sector. Most of the food-processing industries with the
exception of beer & alcoholic drinks and items reserved for small scale sector, like vinegar,
bread, and bakery have been exempted from the provisions of industrial licensing underIndustries (Development and Regulation) Act, 1951. Automatic approval up to 100% of
equity in case of foreign investment is available for most of the processed food items.
With over 1.10 billion consumers and fourth largest economy in terms of purchasing power
parity, UNCTAD and AT Kearney has ranked India amongst the top three investment
destinations in the world.
Food-processing- a growing market
With rapid increase in the per capita income and purchasing power along with increased
urbanization, improved standards of living, there lies a large untapped opportunity to cater to
1000 million domestic consumers. It is estimated that 300 million upper and middle class
consume processed food. With the convenience needs of dual income families, 200 million
more consumers are expected to move to processed food by 2010. The market size for the
processed foods is thus bound to increase from US $102 billion currently to US $330 billion

by 2014-15 assuming a growth of 10%. The share of the value added products in processed
foods would almost double from US $44 billion currently to US $88 billion during the same
period, growing at the rate of 15%. This presents enormous opportunities for investment in
processed food sector.
Several global food giants and leading Indian industrial enterprises are already making their
presence felt in a big way in the sector. Some of them are Nestle India, Cadbury's India,
Kelloggs, Hindustan Unilever, ITC-Agro, Godrej Foods and MTR Foods.
According to Government estimates, Rs 1,000 billion investment is needed in this sector
across all segments of the value chain, from agri inputs to logistics to front-end infrastructure
and distribution, out of which bulk of investment will be from private sector. As a result,various private corporate houses like Reliance have ventured in this space with full vigor.
Hence, there is immense potential for investment in this sector. To facilitate the prompt
growth of food-processing industry, the Government has implemented the scheme for
infrastructure development comprising a food park scheme, establishing packaging centers,
integrated cold chain facility; value added centers and irrigation facilities.
Where the opportunity lies- areas for investment;
It is estimated that the food production in India is likely to grow two-fold in the next ten
years. Thus, there is ample of opportunities for investments in food and food-processing
technologies, equipments, especially in areas of canning, dairy & food-processing, specialty
processing, packaging, frozen food and thermo processing, cold chains and in the area of
food retail.
One of the key reasons for low levels of food processing is poor infrastructure for storage,
marketing and distribution of food products. 25-40% of agri-produce is lost post-harvest
season. According to estimates, Indias marketable surplus is set to increase by 350 mtpa to
870 mtpa by 2012. 40% of the increase (150 mtpa) would be accounted by perishable fruits
and vegetables. The need for investments in the areas of infrastructure and supply chain is
evident from the fact that Indias current storage infrastructure for all food items is only 100
mtpa.

The Government has announced various policy and fiscal measures to expand the storage
capacity. It has announced 15-25% capital subsidy scheme for facilitating construction of
rural godowns and has also sanctioned 16 mt of new capacity the last five years.
Cold chain
The estimated cold-storage capacity at 19.5 mt is less than 15% of the annual horticulture
production and is mainly dominated by potatoes (80% of capacity). The size of cold chain
industry is estimated to be around US $2.2-2.7 billion and is expected to grow at 20-25%
annually. FDI to the extent of 100% is allowed in the sector. With the rising focus on
horticulture, increasing corporate participation and advent of food parks and agri exportzones is likely to result in significant restructuring of cold storage infrastructure with an
estimated investment of US $8-10 billion.
Voltas, Blue-Star and Kirloskar Pneumatic are some of the cold storage players and
equipments. Radhakrishna Foodland and Snowman Frozen are major providers of cold
storage facilities. Concor is setting up a countrywide network of 14 cold-chain complexes for
horticulture in Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore among other places.
Supply chain
An efficient supply chain not only brings down the price of the end product but also
eliminates intermediaries by connecting farmers directly to the super stores. It has thus
become an important aspect of organized retail setup. The food supply chain in India is
highly fragmented with numerous intermediaries and lack of economies of scale.
Sophisticated applications such as demand forecasting, data integration, financial flow
management, supply-demand matching, information sharing will enable it to become mature
and efficient.

Food safety management systems
The tightening of restrictions and the introduction of the Sanitary and Phytosanitary
Agreement by global industry bodies like the World Health Organization (WHO), have led toincreased adherence of safety norms and regulations. Indian companies will have to strictly
adhere to international food safety standards in order to gain a larger share of world trade.
Machinery
In packaging, freshness and hygiene remains a key factor in determining buying by
consumers. In recent times, a number of new technologies have emerged both in processingand packaging, which have made an impact on the shelf life of food products.
Food parks
30 mega food parks with investments of around US $110 million are coming up across the
country to attract FDI in the food-processing sector. The food parks will have facilities
ranging from cold storage, sorting, grading, food-processing, packaging and quality control,
and R&D laboratories. The government for these food parks has identified Maharashtra,
Andhra Pradesh, Punjab and Jharkhand and one Northeast region.
Food retail
Food and groceries form major portion (75%) of the retail pie. However, it has the lowest
level of penetration of 1% in organized retail. Branded foods market size is growing at 15-
20%. Players have outlined major expansion plans recognizing the opportunity.

MAJOR CHALLENGES FOR THE INDIAN FOOD INDUSTRY
Food-processing industry is facing constraints like non-availability of adequate infrastructural
facilities, lack of adequate quality control & testing infrastructure, inefficient supply chain,
and seasonality of raw material, high inventory carrying cost, high taxation, high packaging
cost, affordability and cultural preference of fresh food.
Unprocessed foods are prone to spoilage by biochemical processes, microbial attack and
infestation. Good processing techniques, packaging, transportation and storage can play an
important role in reducing spoilage and extending shelf life. The challenge is to retain the
nutritional value, aroma, flavour and texture of foods, and presenting them in near natural
form with added conveniences. Processed foods need to be offered to the consumer in
hygienic and attractive packaging, and at low incremental costs.
Major Challenges for the Indian Food Processing Industry are:
Consumer education on nutritional facts of processed foods
Low price-elasticity for processed food products
Need for distribution network and cold chain
Backward-forward integration from farm to consumers
Development of marketing channels
Development of linkages between industry, government and institutions
Taxation in line with other nations
Streamlining of food laws

The traditional dairy products are Indias largest selling and profitable segment and accounts
for more than 50% of milk and dairy products. With liberalisation, the import of technology
and machinery has effected modernization and technological breakthrough in production of
traditional milk products and this has encouraged the growth of the organized sector in the
dairy segment.As per estimates by dairy India 2007, by 2011 private dairies are slated to outpace the
cooperative sector and become the largest producers of milk in the industry. Private dairies
are likely to contribute double the quantity of milk that would be contributed by cooperatives
in 2011. Many corporates are planning a foray into the dairy business sensing the big
opportunity. Reliance and Wal-Mart have already made an entry into this business by signing
deals with farmers to procure 7 lakh litres and 15 lakh litres of milk per day. Dabur
India is exploring the possibility of entering into the milk-based drink segment. YakultDanone plans to launch health drinks and yoghurts based on probiotics bacteria. Amul has
also forayed into the flavoured yoghurt segment.
The 55,000 tpa branded butter market, valued at US $133 million is estimated to be growing
at 8-10% pa. The cheese market is estimated to be US $110 million in value terms and an
estimated 54,000 tonnes in volume terms, and has been growing at a CAGR of 8-9% during
1999- 2003. The ice-cream market in India is estimated to be about US $199 million pa.

India's unique pattern of production, consumption, processing and marketing of dairy
products consist of over 11 million farmers organized into about 0.1 million village Dairy
Cooperative Societies (DCS).
Major Players
The packaged milk segment is dominated by the dairy cooperatives. Gujarat Co-operative
Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF) is the largest player. All other local dairy cooperatives
have their local brands (For e.g. Gokul, Warana in Maharashtra, Saras in Rajasthan, Verka in
Punjab, Vijaya in Andhra Pradesh, Aavin in Tamil Nadu, etc). Other private players include

Fruits and Vegetable Processing
India is the 2nd largest producer of fruits (50 million tones) and vegetables (100 million
tones). The installed capacity of fruit and vegetable processing industry has increased from11.08 lakh tones in 1993 to 21.18 lakh tones in 2006. The industry is still nascent and just
about 2.2% of the total output of fruits and vegetables is processed as per estimates. The
country's share in the world trade of processed fruits and vegetables is still less than 1%.
Likewise, the consumption of value added fruits and vegetables are also low compared to the
primary processed food in general and fresh fruits and vegetables in particular. This throws
up a huge opportunity for the sector through increased penetration in the domestic market.
The government expects the processing in this sector to grow to 10% in 2010 and 25% of the
total produce by 2025.

Grain processing
India produces more than 200 million tons of different food grains every year. All major
grains like rice, wheat, maize, barley and millets like jowar (great millet), bajra (pearl millet)
& ragi (finger millet) are produced in India. About 15% of the annual production of wheat is
converted into wheat products. There are 10,000 pulse mills in the country with a milling
capacity of 14 million tones, milling about 75% of annual pulse production of 14 million
tones.
Rice - most processed grain:
India is the second largest rice producer in the world with a 20% share in world riceproduction. The total rice market in India is estimated to be worth around Rs 1,00,000
7/29/2019 Industry Project on Food Processing Industy-urvi Pathak

crores (growing at 3-4% annually) of which only 10% of the rice is branded. The
branded rice sales have taken off in recent years and have been growing at around 15%
in the domestic market compared to 5% for unbranded rice. The branded rice sales
growth is an impressive 25% in the international market as compared to stagnant sales
of unbranded rice. Added to this, of the Rs 3,500 crores worth of basmati rice produced,only around Rs 500 crores worth is sold in branded form.
While the total rice market is growing at 3-4% p.a, the basmati rice category is growing
at 6%, indicating a latent robustness in the countrys consumption. India is the largest
producer and exporter of basmati rice accounting for around 74% of the global
production. Indian basmati rice commands premium over its traditional rivals in terms
of prices and quality. India produces around 2 million tons of basmati p.a; around 50%of Indias total basmati production is consumed within, while the rest is exported.
India exports around one million tons of basmati rice every year. Saudi Arabia
comprises 60% of the exports. Pakistan is Indias sole basmati competitor in the
international market. The country wise breakup of exports is given in the figure below.
Outlook:
The demand for basmati rice is expected to grow for the following reasons:
Growth in world population from 6.2 billion in 2002 to more than 8 billion in
2030; growth in the Indian population from 1.1 billion in 2005 at 1.7% p.a
Growing per capita incomes, rising disposable surpluses, increasing
consumerism and increase in the share of organized retail. The Indian retail
space is also experiencing enormous growth in retail chains and malls
Rising disposable incomes are growing branded volumes. Demand for branded
rice is likely to grow at around 15% Basmati accounts for only 2% of Indias Rs
1,000 billion rice market by volume and about 5% by value, signifying a huge
growth potential.

A rising number of Indian expatriates as well as a growing preference for
basmati in the Middle East are likely to keep demand on the boil
Recent projections made by the IMPACT model developed at the International
Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) indicate that the demand for rice will
increase by 1.1% annually over the next three decades.
Branded rice is becoming popular in both the domestic as well as the export
market. Indian Basmati rice commands a premium in the international market.
This segment thus offers opportunities in marketing of branded grains, as well
as grains processing.
The global rice trade is expected to grow at 2-3% p.a. over the next 10 years,
strengthening production to around 34 million tons by 2014. Basmati is
expected to maintain a robust growth of over 6% in the medium-to-long term.

Meat and poultry processing
At 485 million India has the worlds largest livestock population- accounting for over 55%and 16% of the worlds buffalo and cattle populations respectively (the worlds largest
bovine population). It ranks second in goats, third in sheep and camels, and seventh in poultry
populations in the world.
Processing of meat products is licensed under Meat Food Products Order, (MFPO), 1973.
Total meat production in the country is estimated at 5 million tones annually. Indian
consumer prefers to buy freshly cut meat, rather than processed or frozen meat. A mere 6% ofproduction of poultry meat is sold in processed form. Of this, only about 1% undergoes

processing into value added products (Ready-to- eat/ Ready-to-cook). Processing of large
animals is largely for the purpose of exports. This is because of low processing of value
added meat products and consumer preference for fresh meat. The total processing capacity
in India is over 1 million tones p.a of which 40-50% is utilized.
In meat & meat processing sector, poultry meat is the fastest growing animal protein in India.
The estimated production is 15,00,000 tones growing at CAGR of 13% through 1991-2005.
India ranks among the top six egg producing countries and ranks among the top five chicken
producing countries. Per capita consumption has grown from 870 grams in 2000 to about
1.68 kg in 2005. This is expected to grow to 2 kg in 2009. Growth in Buffalo meat production
has been less rapid (CAGR of 5% in the last 6 years). The current production levels are
estimated at 1.9 million mt. Of this about 21% is exported. Mutton and lamb is relativelysmall segment where demand is outstripping supply, which explains the high prices in
domestic market. The production levels have been almost constant at 950,000 mt with annual
exports of less than 10,000 mt. This has restricted large processing companies from
developing business interests in this sector.
India exports more than 5,00,000 mt of meat of which major share is buffalo meat. Indian
buffalo meat is witnessing strong demand in international markets due to its lean character
and near organic nature.
The total processed meat production in India is likely to double in the next 10 years and has a
huge potential with the growing number of fast food outlets in the country. With the rise in
per capita incomes and busy lifestyles, the demand for processed meat products, which can be
quickly cooked, has been rising. Most of the production of meat and meat products continues
to be in the unorganised sector. Branded products like Venkys and Godrejs Real Chicken
are, however, becoming popular in the domestic market.

Fish Processing
India is the third largest fish producer in the world and is second in inland fish production.
Fish production in the country has increased from 0.75 mt in 1950-51 to 6.50 mt in 2005-06.
In 2005-06, it contributed about 1% of the total GDP and 5.3% of the GDP from agriculture
sector. The geographic base of Indian marine fisheries has 8,118 km. coastline, 2.02 million
sq.km. of exclusive economic zone including 0.5 million sq. km. of continental shelf, and
3,937 fishing villages. India is endowed with rich fishery resources and has vast potential for
fishes from both inland and marine resources.
Processing of fish into canned and frozen forms is carried out almost entirely for the export
market. It is widely felt that Indias substantial fishery resources are under-utilized and there
is tremendous potential to increase the output of this sector. The potential could be gauged by
the fact that against fish production potential in the exclusive economic zone of 3.9 million
tones, actual catch is to the tune of 2.87 million tones. Harvesting from inland sources is
around 2.7 million tones. In last six years there was substantial investment in fisheries to thetune of Rs 3,000 crores of which foreign investments were of the order of Rs 700.

biscuits constitute the largest segment of consumer foods. The annual production of bakery
products, which includes bread, biscuits, pastries, cakes, buns, rusk etc, is estimated to be 50
lakh tones in 2004-05 with estimated value of Rs 69 billion. The two major bakery industries,
viz., bread and biscuit account for about 82% (4 million tones) of the total bakery products.
The organised sector has a market share of 45% and the balance 55% is with the unorganised
sector in the baked products. The sectors that are projected to achieve high growth between
10-20% in 2005-06 in bakery segment include bread, cakes, pastry which is expected to
achieve up to 11% growth and biscuits over 13%.

The size of biscuits market in India is Rs 5,000 crores of which Rs 3,000 crores is
accounted for by the organised sector. Glucose and milk biscuits account for 25% each
and Marie biscuits 20% of the biscuits market.
The biscuit industry in India witnessed annual growth as below:
2003-04 15%
2004-05 14%
2005-06 14%
2006-07 13%
While the growth rate has been stagnating during last 4 years, momentum is expected to
pick up during 2007-08, mainly on account of exemption from central excise duty on
biscuits with MRP up to Rs 100/per kg, as per Union Budget for 2007-08. Indian
Biscuit Manufacturers Association (IBMA), instrumental in obtaining the excise duty
exemption, estimates annual growth of around 17-18% in 2007-08. Growth in biscuit
marketing has been achieved, mainly due to improvement in rural market penetration.
The per capita consumption of biscuits in our country is only 2.1 kg compared to more
than 10 kg in the USA, UK and West European countries and above 4.5 kg in South
East Asian countries like Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, Indonesia etc. China has a
per capita consumption of 1.9 kg while in the case of Japan it is estimated at 7.5 kg.
This shows the huge untapped potential of biscuit industry in India. Exports of Biscuit
are estimated to around 10% of the annual production during the year 2006-07.
With the entry of big players, the domestic biscuit manufacturing sector is to see a
healthy competition that would ensure good quality products at affordable prices to the
consumer. Exports of biscuits would also pick up. It has already increased with Indian
biscuits turning favourite choice in several Middle East markets. The export of high end
products (like cream biscuits) to former East European countries has also begun to rise.
Thus, the biscuit manufacturing segment is poised for a stronger growth in the coming
days.

segments include Britannia, Modern Industries. Brands like Modem and Britannia are
major players in the bread market and together they account for 90% of the organised
bread market. Local manufacturers with numerous local brands cater to populoussegment and contribute considerably in the bread segment. Low margins, high level of
fragmentation are the main features in the bakery industry. Volumes, brand loyalty and
strong distribution networks are the main drivers of growth.

Confectionery
The organised market for confectionery estimated at Rs 2,000 crores is growing at around 7-
8% p.a. The retail value of the Indian sugar confectionery market, which includes products
such as sweets, jellies and gums, is estimated to be US $461 million in 2007 and is projected
to reach US $498 million in 2008. The yearly growth rate from 2002 to 2006 was 7.2%. The
Indian candy market is currently valued at around US $664 million, with about 70% in sugar
confectionery and the remaining 30%, in chocolate confectionery. The Indian sugar
confectionery market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 8% until 2011, according to a
study by Euromonitor International. Two major players namely Cadbury India and Nestle
India, which together account for about 90% of the total chocolate market, dominate the
chocolate market in India.
Increase in affluent consumers who show a tendency for impulse purchases of products such
as sugar confectionery, the development of supermarkets, hypermarkets and convenience
stores coupled with the trend towards higher allowances for children are likely to be the
primary growth drivers for sugar confectionery.

Ready-to-eat foods
Ready-to-eat foods market in India is expected to reach Rs 2,900 crores by 2015 from its
present size of Rs 128 crores (2006). The factors contributing to this growth would be
changes like cold chain development, disintermediation, streamlining of taxation, economies
of scale on the supply side, coupled with increasing disposable incomes, diminishing culinary
skills and the rising need for convenience on the demand side. The ready-to-eat foods market
in India has remained under-penetrated owing to factors like consumers penchant for
freshness, low affordability and the Indian housewifes preference for home cooked food.
Packaged foods in India have grown at approximately 7% p.a. between 2000-2005, with
ready-to-eat foods (RTE).
Being the fastest growing category at CAGR 73%. The Indian RTE foods market,
canned/preserved segment is more popular, contributing to approximately 90% of the market
and growing at a CAGR of 63% between 2001 and 2006. The chilled and dried ready meal
segments are non-existent. The packaged foods industry in India has not experienced
significant growth due to inadequate demand arising from low household incomes and
consumer preference for fresh and home-cooked food. There is thus a huge untapped market
opportunity arising due to rapid demographic shifts in income, urbanization and proportion of
urban working women in India. The industry needs to concentrate on broadening the market
and increasing penetration amongst Indian consumers.

Aerated soft drinks
The soft drinks constitute the 3rd largest packaged food regularly consumed after packed tea
and packed biscuits. The aerated soft drinks industry in India comprises over 100 plants
across all states. It provides direct and indirect industry related employment to over 1,25,000
employees. It has attracted one of the highest foreign direct investments in the country. It has
strong forward and backward linkages with glass, plastic, refrigeration, sugar and
transportation industry. Installed capacity of sweetened/aerated water as on January 2006 is
reported to be 29.60 lakh tons p.a.
Soft drink market overview: Indian soft drink market is valued to be Rs 6,000 crore. The soft
drink market can be broadly divided into two major segments- carbonated soft drink and non-

carbonated soft drink. The carbonated drinks are the mainstay and accounts for 85% of the
total soft drink market, however the growth rate has been stagnant and in fact on declining
trend on account of controversial issue of pesticide. Non-carbonated soft drink category
includes sub category like fruit drink, juices, dairy drinks and more. The preparatory soft
drink market is around Rs 250 crores, out of which Rasna has almost 90% volume share.
Packaged drinking water
There are 218 companies, which have been granted license for manufacturing packaged
drinking water and packaged natural mineral water. There has been a spurt in growth for the
last 3-4 years, which can largely be attributed to a range of various packaged sizes to suit the
consumers. 80% of the packaged water sale comes from the bulk containers (5 litres andabove).

INDIAS IMPORT AND EXPORT OF VARIOUS
COMMODITIES
The Ministry of Food Processing Industries has been encouraging the new processing
capacities for agro-food products through its various policy initiatives and plan schemes
providing financial incentives for setting up of new units and modernization of existing units.
Supported by a committed government in improving the food trade and providing a
conducive atmosphere for agriculture, India is a net exporter of agricultural products. BMI
India Food and Drink Report for Q1 2009, expects India to be a net food exporter to 2013.
The report attributes the status to India's immense landmass and availability of a large
number of commodities. Over the forecast period to 2013, exports are expected to increase by
72.8 percent over 2008 to USD 24.25 billion. However, in spite of vast natural resources,
import growth of food products in India is also expected to be strong over the forecast period,
to reach USD 12.3 billion by 2013. At an overall Food and Beverage level, the export 1 of
processed segments is growing much faster as shown in the figure.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
There are different laws that govern the food-processing sector in India. The prevailing laws
and standards adopted by the Government to verify the quality of food and drugs is one of the
best in the world. Multiple laws/regulations prescribe varied standards regarding food
additives, contaminants, food colours, preservatives and labeling. In order to rationalize the
multiplicity of food laws, a Group of Ministers was recently set up to suggest legislative and
other changes to formulate a modern, integrated food law, which will be a single reference
point in relation to the regulation of food products. The food laws in India are enforced by the
Director General of Health Services, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of
India (GOI).
Various food laws
Applicable to food and related products in India are Prevention of Food Adulteration
Act (PFA), 1954 and Rules (Ministry of Health & Family Welfare): Covers
specifications related to food colour, preservatives, pesticide residues, packaging and
labelling, and regulation of sales. The Standards of Weights and Measures Act, 1976,
and Standards of Weights and Measures (Packaged Commodities) Rules, 1977:

FIVE FORCES ANALYSIS
THREAT OF NEW ENTRANTS
The threat of new entrants is an issue that large industry cannot ignore. Entry barriers
into the industry are quite low, because most of the processed food items have been
exempted from the purview of licensing under the Industries, Development and
regulation, Act, 1951. There is also high potential for incentives if these small
industries are able to succeed. Both of these facts can be considered threats to large
established industries. The production of food grains is increasing but the capacity of
processing is not increasing, so there is also a gate open for new entrants. There is one
more reason for low entry barrier i.e., for the focused growth of the 'pulse milling and
flour milling' sector, the Ministry is providing financial assistance to the grain
processing industries for its setting up/ expansion/ modernization in the form of grant.
Indias comparatively cheaper workforce can be effectively utilized to setup large low
cost production bases for domestic and export markets. A few opportunities
associated with potential entrants is that established firms can take advantage of
economies of scale in production, access to distribution channels, and large amounts
of capital to launch massive advertising campaigns.
The most common forms of entry barriers for food grain processing, except intrinsic physical
or legal obstacles, are as follows:
Cost of entry: for example, investment into technology for oil processing because the
grant is given for rice milling and flour milling only;
Distribution channels: for example, ease of access for competitors;
Cost advantages not related to the size of the company: for example, contacts and
expertise;
Differentiation: for example, certain brand that cannot be copied i.e. new entrants
have to introduce something new or something innovative to enter into the market.
7/29/2019 Industry Project on Food Processing Industy-urvi Pathak
45/64
45 | P a g e
Factors Affecting the Threat of New Entrants
The threat of new entrants is greatest when:
Processes are not protected by regulations or patents.
Start-up costs are low for new firms entering the industry as ministry is giving
grant for rice and flour milling.
Customers have little brand loyalty. Without strong brand loyalty, a potential
competitor has to spend little to overcome the advertising and service programs of
existing firms and is more likely to enter the industry.
Switching costs are low as there are many suppliers in the industry.
Reducing the Threat of New Entrants
Enhancing the marketing/brand image, utilizing patents, and creating alliances with
associated products can minimize the threat of new entrants. Competitors may enter the
industry if there are excess profits, setting a price that earns positive but not excessive
profits could lessen the threat of new entry in the industry.
POWER OF BUYERS
Buyers have the most power when they are large and purchase much of your output. If
your business sells to a few large buyers, they will have significant leverage to
negotiate lower prices and other favorable terms because the threat of losing an
important buyer puts you in a weak position. Buyers also have power if they can play
suppliers against each other. The most important determinants of buyer power are thesize and the concentration of customers. The bargaining power of buyers is high where
there are a large number of undifferentiated small suppliers.

Factors Influencing the Bargaining Power of Buyers
Buyers have more power in this industry because:
The industry has many small companies supplying the product and buyers are
few and large.
The products represent a relatively large expense for the customers. Customers
may not purchase a barrel of oil, but they will purchase if they are selling it
again to a retailer.
The retailers have access to and are able to evaluate market information. The
firm has less room for negotiation if buyers know market demand, prices, and
costs.
The firms product is not unique and can be purchased from other suppliers. Ifthe brand is homogenous or similar to all of the others, buyers will base their
decision mainly on price.
Customers can easily, and with little cost, switch to another product. For
example, due to competition when Agro Tech Foods launched their lower-
priced blended oil under Sundrop umbrella they acquired mass market in edible
oils.
Reducing the Bargaining Power of Buyers
The firm can reduce the bargaining power of their customers by increasing their loyalty
by selling directly to consumers, or increasing the inherent or perceived value of a
product by adding features or branding. In addition, if the firm can select the customers
who have little knowledge of the market and have less power, the firm can enhance
their profitability.
POWER OF SUPPLIER
The suppliers have little power because there are numerous throughout India that
industry can choose who to buy from, so this would be considered an opportunity for
industry. A threat involved with the power of suppliers is that suppliers can fairly easily
integrate forward into the industry and become a rival.

Every business requires inputslabor, parts, raw materials, services etc. The cost of the
inputs can have a significant effect on the industrys profitability. Whether the strength
of suppliers represents a weak or a strong force hinges on the amount of bargaining
power they can exert and, ultimately, on how they can influence the terms andconditions of transactions in their favor. Suppliers would prefer to sell to the firm at the
highest price possible or provide the firm with no more services than necessary. If the
force is weak, then the firm may be able to negotiate a favorable business deal for
themselves. Conversely, if the force is strong, then the firm is in a weak position and
may have to pay a higher price or accept a lower level of quality or service.
In the food grain processing industry, there are many suppliers for raw materials like inflour milling, the firm can buy wheat directly from the farmers or ITC or the
wholesaler. So the force is weak and the firm is able to negotiate a favorable business
deal.
Factors Affecting the Bargaining Power of Suppliers
Suppliers have the most power when:
The input(s) the firm requires are available only from a small number of
suppliers. For instance, rice mainly produced in southern region of the country
so the rice milling firm in northern region has small number of suppliers.
The inputs the firm requires are unique, making it costly to switch suppliers. If
the firm uses a certain enzyme in a food manufacturing process, changing to
another supplier may require the firm to change their entire manufacturing
process. This may be very costly to the firm, thus they will have less bargaining
power with their supplier.
It is difficult for the firm to switch to another supplier.
The firm does not have a full understanding of their suppliers market. They are
less able to negotiate if they have little information about market demand,
prices, and suppliers costs. For example Jaora Gold.

Reducing the Bargaining Power of Suppliers
To increase the firms power, form a buying group of small producers to buy as one
large-volume customer. If the firm has the resources, they may choose to integrate back
and produce their own inputs by purchasing one of their key suppliers or doing theproduction their self.
THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES
The threat that substitute products pose to an industry's profitability depends on the
relative price-to-performance ratios of the different types of products or services to
which customers can turn to satisfy the same basic need. The threat of substitution is
also affected by switching coststhat is, the costs in areas such as retraining, retooling
and redesigning that are incurred when a customer switches to a different type of
product or service. Products from one business can be replaced by products from
another. If a firm produces a commodity product that is undifferentiated, customers can
easily switch away from their product to a competitors product with few consequences.
In contrast, there may be a distinct penalty for switching if their product is unique or
essential for their customers business. Substitute products are those that can fulfill asimilar need to the one that a firms product fills. As an example, a family restaurant
may prefer to buy the processed pulse by a firm, but if given a better deal, they may go
to another supplier.It also involves:
Product-for-product substitution (soya oil for groundnut oil); is based on the
substitution of need;
Substitution that relates to something that people can do without (soya oil,groundnut oil).
Factors Affecting the Threat of Substitution
Substitutes are a greater threat when:
A firms product doesnt offer any real benefit compared to other products.
What will hold their customers if they can get an identical product from their
competitor?

Customers have little loyalty. When price is the customers primary motivator,
the threat of substitutes is greater.
Reducing the Threat of Substitutes
The firm can reduce the threat of substitutes by using tactics such as staying closely in
tune with customer preferences and differentiating their product by branding. In some
cases, the advertising required to differentiate is more than one firm can bear. In that
case, collective advertising for an industry may be more effective.
RIVALRY AMONG COMPETING FIRMS IN INDUSTRY
Rivalry among competitors is often the strongest of the five competitive forces, but can
vary widely among industries. If the competitive force is weak, companies may be able
to raise prices, provide fewer products for the price, and earn more profits. If
competition is intense, it may be necessary to enhance product offerings to keep
customers, and prices may fall below break-even levels. Rivalries can occur on various
playing fields. In food grain processing industries, rivalries are centered on price
competition especially industries that sell edible oils, for example the Agro TechFoods launched their lower priced Sundrop edible oil. In other industries, competition
may be about offering customers the most attractive combination of good ingredients,
or creating a stronger brand image than competitors.
Factors Influencing Rivalry among Competitors
The most intense rivalries occur when: One firm or a small number of firms have incentive to try and become the
market leader. In some cases, an industry with two or three dominant firms may
experience intense rivalry when these firms are battling to achieve market leader
status. In other situations, when competitors with diverse strategies and
relationships have different goals and the rules of the game are not well
established, rivalry will be more intense.
For example the government is providing grants for establishing new flour and
rice milling.

There are high fixed costs of production. When a large percentage of the cost to
produce products is independent of the number of units produced, businesses
are pressured to produce larger volumes. This may tempt companies to
drastically cut prices when there is excess capacity in the industry in order to
sell greater volumes of product.
Products are perishable and need to be sold quickly. Sellers are more likely to
price aggressively if they risk losing inventory due to spoilage or if storage costs
are high.
Products are not unique or homogenous. Undifferentiated products
(commodities) compete mainly on price, because consumers receive the same
value from the products of different firms. Because firms do not experience any
insulation from price competition, there is more likely to be active rivalry. Customers can easily switch between products. Intense rivalry is likely when
customers in a given industry can easily switch to other suppliers. In these
situations, the businesses in the industry will be vying for market share.
Reducing the Threat of Rivals
Threats of rivals can be reduced by employing a variety of tactics. To minimize pricecompetition, distinguish the product from the competitors by innovating or improving
features. Other tactics include focusing on a unique segment of the market, distributing
your product in a novel channel, or trying to form stronger relationships and build
customer loyalty.
