11. CHALLENGES IN THE FMCG INDUSTRY
Transportation Problem: Transportation infrastructure is quite poor in rural
India. Nearly 80 percentages of villages in the country are not connected by well
constructed roads.
Warehousing: In the rural areas, there are no facilities for public as well as
private warehousing. Marketers face problem of storage of their goods.
Packaging: It is the first important step of product processing. If the
packaging cost is high, it will increase the total cost of products
Media Problems: Media have lots of problems in rural areas. Television is a
good medium to communicate message to the rural people
Seasonal Marketing: The main problem of rural marketing is seasonal demand
in rural areas, because 75% of rural income is also seasonal.

12.  Low Per Capita Income: Per capita income is lower in rural areas compared
to those in urban areas.
Low Level of Literacy Rate: The literacy rate is low in rural areas compared to
urban areas. This again leads to the problem of communication for promotion
purpose.
Career in Rural Market: While rural marketing offers a challenging career, a rural
sales person should require certain qualifications and specialized talent to deal with
rural consumers..
Cultural Factors: Culture is a system of shared values, beliefs and perceptions
that influence the behavior of consumers
