STRENTHSTRENTH ITC is a diversified company

ITC leveraged it traditional businesses to develop new brands for new segments.

For example:-

• ITC used its experience of transporting and

distributing tobacco products to remote and distant

parts of India to the advantage of its FMCG products.

ITC master chefs from its hotel chain are often asked to develop new food concepts for its FMCG business.

Page 47: Itc  manendra

WEAKNESWEAKNESSS

The company's original business was traded in tobacco (the negative connection of tobacco with poor health and premature death. )

To fund its cash guzzling FMCG start-up, the company is

still dependant upon its tobacco revenues .

Page 48: Itc  manendra

ITC is moving into new and emerging sectors including Information Technology, supporting business solutions

ITC leverages e-Choupal in a novel way . It is also an ambitious project that has a goal of reaching 10 million farmers in 100,000 villages

OPPORTUNITIEOPPORTUNITIESS

Page 49: Itc  manendra

The obvious threat is from competition, both domestic and international.

Western companies will see India as an exciting opportunity for themselves to find new market segments for their own offerings.
