future regarding order.

Limitations

1. The survey is limited only for Pune city.2. Time period of the project was Five

days, which may not be enough to understand the whole market.

3. Respondent hesitate to give true response to question.

SUGGESTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

A. Suggestions : 1. Govardhan has a relatively good distribution network, but still company is not able to

fulfill the demand of outlet in the peak season when demand is very high. Here company should consider on the supply of product in the peak season.

2. Supply should be regular to all the outlets including those that lie in the pocket roads

3. Incentives & schemes should be given to the retailers so as to attract the retailers to stock more of their goods than that of the competitors.

4. Company should provide advertising facility like outside wall painting; provide company’s stand boards, Posters which help to sell Govardhan milk.

5. Provide consistent service to retailers as this will help gain company goodwill in the market.

RECOMMENDATIONS

From above research it is clear that there is a need for Point Of Purchase display program for retailers of Govardhan. Also, I have seen few advertisements at the

retailers which can make consumer aware that product exists.
