Brief History:
Small Beginning, Big Vision;
Great Ambitions
Havmor Ice Cream began its branded life in 1944 in Karachi, in undivided India. By
1947, it was a popular local brand there.
But in 1947, in the wake of the Partition, its founder SatishChona had to join the exodus
into India, with virtually no moveable assets. Searching for a new turf, he tried out Dehra
Dun and Indore, and finally, settled down in Ahmedabad.
No, it was not a case of ‘brand relocation’, or anything else as fanciful. He had to start
the venture from scratch again. In fact, he had to begin from a hand-cart at the
Ahmedabad Railway Station, churning out the Ice Cream manually.
He called this fledgling brand ‘Havmor’ -- a neologism for ‘Have More’ -- which meant
the customer, got more value for money, and more taste to relish, from his Ice Creams.
Perhaps he didn’t know it then, but he had laid the foundation for one of Western India’s
most enduring market legends.
And good quality, like good character, wins over the situation sooner or later.
Today, Havmor Ice Cream is a delicious facet of Western India’s daily life, and part of its
market lore. It reaches hundreds of thousands of consumers through 7 main outlets and
3,800+plus dealers. That’s a very, very long way from a hand-cart.

New Product Development
In business and engineering, new product development (NPD) is the complete process
of bringing a new product to market. New product development is described in the
literature as the transformation of a market opportunity into a product available for
sale] and it can be tangible (that is, something physical you can touch) or intangible (like
a service, experience, or belief). A good understanding of customer needs and wants,
the competitive environment and the nature of the market represent the top required
factors for the success of a new product. Cost, time and quality are the main variables
that drive the customer needs. Aimed at these three variables, companies develop
continuous practices and strategies to better satisfy the customer requirements and
increase their market share by a regular development of new products. There are many
uncertainties and challenges throughout the process which companies must face. The
use of best practices and the elimination of barriers to communication are the main
concerns for the management of NPD process.
New products are developed and launched in the market after suggestion from
marketing department and management acceptance. First of all new flavor will be
developed on a trial basis. It is the policy of the company to develop three different
shades of taste (change in level of sugar, flavor and other aspect)
Under product A, B, C all the three variants of proposed new product will be given to the
employees and workers for tasting purpose and the variant having highest acceptance
will be launch.
Incase of food business also depending upon market requirement new products are
developed.

Pricing
It is one of the most sensitive issues of the marketing. Havmor has developed and
adopted different pricing for different class of consumer for different segment.
Specifically for conventional flavors in case of candy like Mango dolly, Rasberry dolly,
conventional choc-bar. Prices are kept very conventionally. In the line of competitor.
Higher price for novelty products. All the novelty products of Havmor are being offered
at higher price in the market Margin for such product is kept significantly higher s
compared to other products. For example Chocó nutty and Zulubar is premium product
with premium price.
Generally for, seasonal product like Sitafal, blueberry ice cream, blue berry ice-cream,
and price is higher.
21
Factors considered while setting price
1. Pricing Objectives:
What is the objective of firm is a very important factor which helps in deciding the price.
For example, if the objective of company is profit maximization then generally high price
is fixed whereas the companies having the objective of sales maximization prefer low
price to increase the sale and capture a big share in the market. If the objective of the
company is to create a special image with innovative technologies then generally the
prices are high for example, the companies like Rolls Royce or Mercedes etc. cannot
lower the prices of their product as it will affect their image.
Apart from profit maximization, the pricing objective of a firm may include:
(a) Obtaining Market Share Leadership:
If firm wants to capture big share in the market then it has to keep its price low so that
more number of people are attracted to purchase the products.
(b) Surviving in a Competitive Market:
To survive in a competitive market the firms have to reduce their price by offering
discounts.
(c) Attaining Product Quality Leadership:
In this case generally high prices are charged to cover the cost and high cost of
research and development.
2. Product Cost:
The second important factor which is kept in mind while fixing the price is the cost of
product or service. The price of the product must be able to cover the total cost of
product. Total cost means fixed cost and variable cost. Fixed costs are fixed irrespective
of production level for example, rent of factory, cost of machinery, salary of permanent
staff etc. The variable costs vary with production e.g., cost of raw materials, wages of
labour etc. The price is fixed after calculating the total cost. In case of high competition
and to capture big share if firm has to fix low price then at least the price must cover
variable cost and fixed cost can be ignored for some time.
22
3. Extent of Competition in the Market:
The third important factor which is kept in mind while setting up the price is the level of
competition firm has to face. When a firm does not face any competition then it can
enjoy complete freedom in fixing the price. But when the competition is more than price
is fixed keeping in mind the price of competitor’s product for example, Pepsi Company
cannot fix the price of its drinks without considering the price of Coke and other cold
drinks available in market.
4. Customer’s Demand and Utility:
The last but not the least factor which is kept in mind while fixing the price is the
demand of product or service when demand of the product is inelastic i.e., no or very
less substitutes are available then company can fix up high price. Whereas when
demand is elastic i.e., more substitutes are available then price has to be brought down.
On the other hand, if product is highly demanded then price can be high but at the time
of low demand price has to be brought down. If product is offering higher utility one can
easily charge high price as customer is ready to pay high price if he gets high value
from the product. Whereas if utility is low, you cannot charge high price.
5. Government and Legal Regulations:
To protect the interest of general public, the government has all the right to control the
prices of various products and services by including the products in the category of
essential commodities. The common commodities in essential commodities are Drugs,
some food items, LPG etc. With government intervention there can be a check on
monopolist as they cannot charge unfairly high price for essential commodities.
6. Marketing Methods Used:
The price of the product also gets affected by various techniques of methods of
marketing used to promote the products. If company is using intensive advertising to
promote the sale of product then it will charge high price. Other marketing methods
23
which affect price of a product are type of packing, distribution system, salesmen
employed, customer support services etc.
Pricing Approaches (Strategies)
 Pricing strategies or methods or approaches will depend on the pricing
objectives of the company. The strategy must be suitable for achieving the
desired objectives. Some categories of pricing methods are given below:
1. Cost Based pricing: The commonly used under this category are mark-up
pricing or cost plus pricing, absorption cost pricing, target rate of return pricing,
and marginal cost pricing. The aim of marginal cost pricing is to maximize
contribution towards fixed costs. It aims at realizing all the direct variable costs
of the product, plus part of the fixed costs. Most of the cost based methods of
pricing evolve from the break even concept. The break even point is the level
where the total costs exactly equal the total revenues; that is, the costs and
revenues break even at a particular level. Profit will be zero at break even
point. The number of units that are required to be produced and sold to reach a
no loss or no profit situation at a given price is break even point.
2. Demand Based Pricing: The common methods under this pricing
category are ‘what the market can bear’ , skimming pricing and penetration
pricing. In these methods, the basic assumption is that sales and profits are
independent of costs, but are dependent on the demand. This method brings in
high profits in the short term. Price elasticity of demand has to be reckoned in
all demand based pricing methods. Price elasticity of demand is the relative
sensitivity of demand for a product to changes its price.
3. Competition Oriented Pricing: In a competitive market situation, market
situation companies opt for competition based or competitive parity pricing.
They follow three alternative courses- premium pricing, discount pricing or
parity pricing. A given competitior’s pricing will serve as the benchmark in these
options. Premium pricing involves pricing above the competitior’s price.
Discount pricing is pricing below such level. Parity pricing or going rate pricing
is matching the price of competitiors.
4. Value Pricing: Value pricing is based on the assumption that the objective
of pricing is not the recover costs, but to realise the value of the product
perceived by the customers. The merit of this method is the belief that the
customer is interested not in the cost of the product but only in the value.
24
5. Product Line Pricing: In the case of companies that market product
different product lines, they need not fix optimal price for each product,
independent of other products in the line. This method is also known as the
product line promotion method of pricing.
6. Tender Pricing :On many occasions, business organizations are required
to go for price fixation on the basis of tenders. This option is more applicable to
business markets where institiutional customers normally call for competitive
bidding through sealed tenders or quotations.
7. Affordability Based Pricing : In the context of products which form
essential commodities group which meet the basic needs of all segments of
consumers, affordability based pricing is useful. The pricing is done in a such a
way that all segments of the total market can afford to buy and consume the
products as per their need. This method is also known as social welfare pricing.
8. Differentiated Pricing: In this method, different prices are charged for the
same product by the company, in different market segments or zones. Price
differentiation is also made occasionally, based on customer class rather than
geographic marketing territory. Price is less bulk quantity buyers and higher for
small volumes buyers.
9. Psychological Pricing: Consumer buying decisions are influenced mostly
by psychological barrier in respect to pricing. Instead of fixing the price at
Rs.300 or Rs.500,they peg it at Rs.295 or Rs.299.
25
Channel of Distribution
The operational success of a company depends not only on how well it performs in
terms of production and sales but also on how well its entire channels of distribution
compete with competitor’s channels. A company may produce the best products but still
not do well if its dealers perform poorly in sales and service against the competitors
dealers.
Havmor has adopted multi channel distribution system. Hence company has adopted
more than two types of distribution partner. In Gujarat Havmor is leading ice-cream
brand as well as consumption of Ice cream is very high. Hence, we require extensive
distribution system.
Types of Channel distribution
Vertical channel distribution
The emergence of vertical marketing systems is a significant recent channel
development.
Horizontal Channel of Distribution

activities to exploit an emerging marketing opportunity.

31
Setting Budget
The advertising budget of havmor is typically a subset of the larger sales budget and
within that, the marketing budget. There are several points through which budget is
been set, they are as follows:
1. Who is target consumer? Who is interested in purchasing the product and what
are the specific demographics of the consumer(age,attitudesetc)? Often it is
useful to compose a consumer profile to give the abstract idea of a “target
consumer”.
2. What media type will be most useful in reaching the target consumer?
3. What is required to get the target consumer to purchase the product? Does the
product lend itself to rational or emotional appeals? Which appeals are most
likely to persuade the target consumer?
4. What is relationship between advertising expenditures and the impact of
advertising campaigns on products? In others words how much profile is likely to
be earned for each rupee spent on advertising?
Thus , answering this above questions, one can set budget or it can be said that
budget can be set by this questions.
Strategies and Tools
The strategies and tools of advertisement are as follows:
1. Cool Factor: We all want to feel cool and advertisers know this. Companies
will try to convince you that if you do not use their product, you simply will lose
cool points or not have a “ cool factor”. Advertisements always show people
who appear hip and cool doing hip and cool looking things.
2. Amazing toys: When you were growing up, you probably remember toy
commercials with toys doing things that they might not exactly be able to do.
For eg. Havmor is offering toys to kids on childrens day and also offering
special 50% discount on childrens day.
3. Celebrity Product Pushers: There are wide variety of characters or
people that you moght associate with certain products. All of these celebrities
are a type of advertising strategy to get children and adults to associate a
certain image with a product.
32
4. Facts and Figures : Companies will also use certain facts and figures to
make a product appear credible and reliable.
5. Selective Editing : In commercials for advertising, there is a lot of
selective editing and omission that goes into the process. Generally,
advertisers and companies will not give you the full story of their product.
Thus, above are some of the strategies and tools of adveritsment.
Evaluation
In today’s advertising world, every firm invests heavily on advertisement for making their
products known to the taget audience and to arouse the interest of target audience in
firm’s product. It is necessary to evaluate the effectiveness of advertisement at different
level, starting from creation of ad-copy to running of ad on media, and also after
execution of ad to know to what extent the objectives are achieved.
There are three types of test applied in advertising evaluation :
1. Pre-testing
2. Concurrent testing
3. Post Testing
 Pre Testing :Pre testing follows the universal law “Prevention is better than
cure”. Advertising can be pretested at several points n the creative development
process. Pre testing method refer to testing the potentiality of a communication
message or ad-copy before printing, broadcasting, or telecasting.
 Concurrent Testing :Concurrent Testing is evaluated throughout the whole
advertisement execution process. Tests are conducted while audience is

Suggestions
The following are the recommendations / suggestions for Havmor Ice Cream Ltd.
o To remove the weakness of market reach , the company should expand
its distribution network and sales force strength
o Company should indulge in more and more social activities which can also
help it earn the publicity.
o The company does not use T.V. media for its advertising and promotions
like other companies like Vadilal ,Amul, Quality walls etc. so it should also
indulge in such activity to increase the brand awareness
o The company can also sponsor any parks or garden or any public place to
gain the social publicity and people’s attention

  • 7. 7 Novelties Ice-cream Cakes Packs Roll cuts Form of organization: PRIVATE LIMITED Brief History: Small Beginning, Big Vision; Great Ambitions Havmor Ice Cream began its branded life in 1944 in Karachi, in undivided India. By 1947, it was a popular local brand there. But in 1947, in the wake of the Partition, its founder SatishChona had to join the exodus into India, with virtually no moveable assets. Searching for a new turf, he tried out Dehra Dun and Indore, and finally, settled down in Ahmedabad. No, it was not a case of ‘brand relocation’, or anything else as fanciful. He had to start the venture from scratch again. In fact, he had to begin from a hand-cart at the Ahmedabad Railway Station, churning out the Ice Cream manually. He called this fledgling brand ‘Havmor’ -- a neologism for ‘Have More’ -- which meant the customer, got more value for money, and more taste to relish, from his Ice Creams. Perhaps he didn’t know it then, but he had laid the foundation for one of Western India’s most enduring market legends. And good quality, like good character, wins over the situation sooner or later. Today, Havmor Ice Cream is a delicious facet of Western India’s daily life, and part of its market lore. It reaches hundreds of thousands of consumers through 7 main outlets and 3,800+plus dealers. That’s a very, very long way from a hand-cart.

Marketing segmentation is done on the basis of Novelty item Higher income group Middle income group Commercial use novelty item ready sundaes pudding ice cream higher income group choco nutty signature middle income group cookie cream american nuts commercial use vanilla
  • 20. 20 Pricing It is one of the most sensitive issues of the marketing. Havmor has developed and adopted different pricing for different class of consumer for different segment. Specifically for conventional flavors in case of candy like Mango dolly, Rasberry dolly, conventional choc-bar. Prices are kept very conventionally. In the line of competitor. Higher price for novelty products. All the novelty products of Havmor are being offered at higher price in the market Margin for such product is kept significantly higher s compared to other products. For example Chocó nutty and Zulubar is premium product with premium price. Generally for, seasonal product like Sitafal, blueberry ice cream, blue berry ice-cream, and price is higher.
  • 21. 21 Factors considered while setting price 1. Pricing Objectives: What is the objective of firm is a very important factor which helps in deciding the price. For example, if the objective of company is profit maximization then generally high price is fixed whereas the companies having the objective of sales maximization prefer low price to increase the sale and capture a big share in the market. If the objective of the company is to create a special image with innovative technologies then generally the prices are high for example, the companies like Rolls Royce or Mercedes etc. cannot lower the prices of their product as it will affect their image. Apart from profit maximization, the pricing objective of a firm may include: (a) Obtaining Market Share Leadership: If firm wants to capture big share in the market then it has to keep its price low so that more number of people are attracted to purchase the products. (b) Surviving in a Competitive Market: To survive in a competitive market the firms have to reduce their price by offering discounts. (c) Attaining Product Quality Leadership: In this case generally high prices are charged to cover the cost and high cost of research and development. 2. Product Cost: The second important factor which is kept in mind while fixing the price is the cost of product or service. The price of the product must be able to cover the total cost of product. Total cost means fixed cost and variable cost. Fixed costs are fixed irrespective of production level for example, rent of factory, cost of machinery, salary of permanent staff etc. The variable costs vary with production e.g., cost of raw materials, wages of labour etc. The price is fixed after calculating the total cost. In case of high competition and to capture big share if firm has to fix low price then at least the price must cover variable cost and fixed cost can be ignored for some time.
  • 22. 22 3. Extent of Competition in the Market: The third important factor which is kept in mind while setting up the price is the level of competition firm has to face. When a firm does not face any competition then it can enjoy complete freedom in fixing the price. But when the competition is more than price is fixed keeping in mind the price of competitor’s product for example, Pepsi Company cannot fix the price of its drinks without considering the price of Coke and other cold drinks available in market. 4. Customer’s Demand and Utility: The last but not the least factor which is kept in mind while fixing the price is the demand of product or service when demand of the product is inelastic i.e., no or very less substitutes are available then company can fix up high price. Whereas when demand is elastic i.e., more substitutes are available then price has to be brought down. On the other hand, if product is highly demanded then price can be high but at the time of low demand price has to be brought down. If product is offering higher utility one can easily charge high price as customer is ready to pay high price if he gets high value from the product. Whereas if utility is low, you cannot charge high price. 5. Government and Legal Regulations: To protect the interest of general public, the government has all the right to control the prices of various products and services by including the products in the category of essential commodities. The common commodities in essential commodities are Drugs, some food items, LPG etc. With government intervention there can be a check on monopolist as they cannot charge unfairly high price for essential commodities. 6. Marketing Methods Used: The price of the product also gets affected by various techniques of methods of marketing used to promote the products. If company is using intensive advertising to promote the sale of product then it will charge high price. Other marketing methods
  • 23. 23 which affect price of a product are type of packing, distribution system, salesmen employed, customer support services etc. Pricing Approaches (Strategies)  Pricing strategies or methods or approaches will depend on the pricing objectives of the company. The strategy must be suitable for achieving the desired objectives. Some categories of pricing methods are given below: 1. Cost Based pricing: The commonly used under this category are mark-up pricing or cost plus pricing, absorption cost pricing, target rate of return pricing, and marginal cost pricing. The aim of marginal cost pricing is to maximize contribution towards fixed costs. It aims at realizing all the direct variable costs of the product, plus part of the fixed costs. Most of the cost based methods of pricing evolve from the break even concept. The break even point is the level where the total costs exactly equal the total revenues; that is, the costs and revenues break even at a particular level. Profit will be zero at break even point. The number of units that are required to be produced and sold to reach a no loss or no profit situation at a given price is break even point. 2. Demand Based Pricing: The common methods under this pricing category are ‘what the market can bear’ , skimming pricing and penetration pricing. In these methods, the basic assumption is that sales and profits are independent of costs, but are dependent on the demand. This method brings in high profits in the short term. Price elasticity of demand has to be reckoned in all demand based pricing methods. Price elasticity of demand is the relative sensitivity of demand for a product to changes its price. 3. Competition Oriented Pricing: In a competitive market situation, market situation companies opt for competition based or competitive parity pricing. They follow three alternative courses- premium pricing, discount pricing or parity pricing. A given competitior’s pricing will serve as the benchmark in these options. Premium pricing involves pricing above the competitior’s price. Discount pricing is pricing below such level. Parity pricing or going rate pricing is matching the price of competitiors. 4. Value Pricing: Value pricing is based on the assumption that the objective of pricing is not the recover costs, but to realise the value of the product perceived by the customers. The merit of this method is the belief that the customer is interested not in the cost of the product but only in the value.
  • 24. 24 5. Product Line Pricing: In the case of companies that market product different product lines, they need not fix optimal price for each product, independent of other products in the line. This method is also known as the product line promotion method of pricing. 6. Tender Pricing :On many occasions, business organizations are required to go for price fixation on the basis of tenders. This option is more applicable to business markets where institiutional customers normally call for competitive bidding through sealed tenders or quotations. 7. Affordability Based Pricing : In the context of products which form essential commodities group which meet the basic needs of all segments of consumers, affordability based pricing is useful. The pricing is done in a such a way that all segments of the total market can afford to buy and consume the products as per their need. This method is also known as social welfare pricing. 8.
