HISTORY

Before 1984, Mr. Nawaz Chatha was the employee of the Shezan

bakers at the post of Manager. When he was performing his job, he

decided to start his own business separately because he was expert

dealer, a technical supporter and maintained check-in balance of

every branch.

Mr. Nawaz Chatha started his business from one unit in Muslim Town

with bakers. When owner saw that business was earning maximum

profit then he decided to introduce new product i.e. SWEETS and start

selling as a complimentary line. And after SWEETS, the company

introduced MILK and then ICE-CREAM.

This made Gourmet more accessible to the rather modern areas of

Lahore and gave its name a further boost in 1987-93.

PEST ANALYSIS

A scan of the external macro-environment in which the firm

operates can be expressed in terms of the following factors.

1. Political

2. Economic

3. Social

4. Technological

1. POLITICAL FACTORS

Political factors include government regulations and legal issues

and define both formal and informal rules under which the firm must

operate.

Government at all levels is an important component of the

general environment no organization or industry is immune of the

various decisions made by the government. In case of Nirala the

government as such imposes no such type of duty on the methai

manufacturers in Pakistan. But on the other hand Nirala sweets are

the first to become the official sweet of Governor House of Punjab that

is an honor for them.

2. ECONOMIC FACTORS


15/32

Economic factors affect the purchasing power of potential

customers and the firm's cost of capital. The following are examples of

factors in the macro economy

G.D.P growth

Excess of black money in the country

3. SOCIAL FACTORS

Social factors include the demographic and cultural aspects of

the external macro environment. These factors affect customer needs

and the size of potential markets.

Social Cultural and demographical variables have an overall

positive impact. As our Pakistani society has different types of social

norms and values for example on different types of occasions

exchange of sweets is a very common thing as in Ramadan, Eid,

Basant, Shab-Rat, Birth of New Born Babies, Weddings etc.

4. TECHNOLOGICAL FACTORS

Technological factors can lower barriers to entry, reduce

minimum efficient production levels, and influence outsourcing

decisions. Technological variables have an overall positive effect on

the business. As rate of innovations and production technology is

always in the favor of business.

Technology is of particular importance because it has been and

continues to be the main source of increases in productivity. In case of

sweet industry no such type of rocket science is being used in the

manufacturing of sweets but how ever Nirala is keeping it self up todate with the change in technology.

ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE


16/32

ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE

Organizational culture is defined as a system of shared meaning

within an organization that determines, in large degree howemployees act.

CHARECTERISTICS TO MEASURE ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE

The degree to which employees want to be recognized by the

organizations identity, Niralas employees are very much proud to be

identified by its employees. Every employee wears the yellow t-shirt

having a logo ofNirala with black pant.

to follow orders. Only Board of Directors is allowed to make risk taking

decision.

5. OPEN SYSTEM FOCUS

In Nirala employees at lower level are not allowed to share

ideas but at higher-level employees are allowed to say in decision

performance but the aspect of buttering and favoritism is also in the

organization to some extent.

establishing an overall strategy for achieving those goals anddeveloping a comprehensive set of plans to integrate and coordinate

following major competitors in this field that are Fazal Sweets,


18/32

Rafeeq Sweets, Shezan Bakers, Gourmet Bakers, Good Luck,

Cakes And Bakes , Shireen Mahal etc.

FORECASTING

In Nirala both Quantitative and Qualitative forecasting is

applied. In Quantitative forecasting they forecast future sales trend

through use of mathematical models on their past data. This enables

them to adapt and respond in the best possible way to the fluctuations

in demand. Some sort of Qualitative forecasting is also carried out

through customer evaluation. By doing so they find out the products

which generate the maximum revenue and those that are disliked.

This process enables them to allocate the resources to particular

products more efficiently.

BENCHMARK

As Nirala is the market leader in the sweet industry there is not

a single competitor that can server as a benchmark for Nirala.

However Nirala has its own internal benchmarks in order to produce

quality sweets.

SWOT ANALYSIS

It is an analysis of the organization Strengths, Weakness,

Opportunities and Threats. In formulating sound strategic plans, an

organization must assess its internal strengths and weaknesses in

relation to the external opportunities and threats it faces. An effective

strategy will take advantage of organizations strengths and

opportunities at the same time it minimizes or overcomes weaknesses

and threats. Regular assessment and SWOT analysis is thus given

importance.

because it needs huge investment. Nirala has its own distribution

systems.

in this industry that it is very hard to compete.
