MANAGERIAL&

MARKETINGSTRATEGIES OF

CTMManagerial Strategy Of C T

MAs it’s major competitors are in the country as well as in the foreign

markets, while concerning with the countrywide competitors, there are major competitors like Nishat Textile Mills Limited, Kohinoor, Gul Ahmed, M.Farooq, Chenabtextile mills limited, A.M textile mills limited along with major competitors in European market.

There is strictly needed a strategic focus to face the present intense

competitive situation. The market for textile products is becoming more

competitive every year. The customers are emphasizing on quality over all

Page 11: Report on Crescent Textile Mills Limited Faisalabad

other thing and can easily search the most cost-effective supplier anywhere

in the world. Keeping this in mind, Crescent Textile Mill’s focus has been on

meeting its customer’s demands and requirements, improving its

competitiveness, increasing productivity, and enhancing its existing quality

control systems. So it has emphasized on the implementation of the

developed strategies.Every element of cost and quality is continually scrutinized and

measured according to worldwide standards. Each unit is independently analyzed as a cost center to make cuts wherever and wherever possible. The Quality Assurance department has been further strengthened with the addition of trained staff and state-of- the –art equipment.

Marketing strategy of C T MAlthough it may be the duty of the government to ensure availability of cotton at a reasonable price, it is the exclusive responsibility of Crescent Textile Mills to implement the total quality management concept. If units are able to minimize wastage, optimize cost of production, improve quality standards, ensure product diversification and learn to market the finished products, no country can compete with Pakistan.Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, Japan, Bangladesh are the large manufacturers and exporters of value added textile products, but are dependent on Pakistan and other countries for their requirements of cotton, cotton yarn and fabric. Their edge is in finishing good quality fabric; producing attractively designed garments maintaining quality standards and abide by delivery commitments. These countries also follow different marketing strategies, while the Pakistani manufacturers first produce a product and then try to locate a customer; other countries produce what the importers demand.Not only this, buyers are often willing to pay a premium for odd specifications, short delivery time or immediate commencement of shipments of small lots, extra care in meeting specification and better quality standards, using better quality package which may not cost as much as the premium offered.

Lately, the manufacturers of yarn having pragmatic thinking and

realizing the tough completion have started producing dyed cones. They

Page 12: Report on Crescent Textile Mills Limited Faisalabad

have not only tabbed a new market segment but also get better return. Isn’t

it not innovative marketing?Crescent Textile Mills have to realize the harsh reality that the days of

cheap domestic cotton are over, the import of textile products is being gradually open and quota regime will be phased out gradually. They know their capabilities as well as shortcomings, products they can produce and the products the foreign buyers demand, we have to plan today how would they market their products is the days to come.

product. The price policy of the company should be in such a way that it

should produce a reasonable profit for the company and satisfy the customer.

quantity. Therefore, companies always try to use there full capacity of

production because with increase in production the fixed cost decreases.

extra quality left from the foreign order or defected product in the local market.

on its products at cut-price. Because, when some extra quantity is from the

foreign order they sell at cut price because, they have already charged their

cost from the foreign customer.

2-Pricing Procedure For The International MarketPricing procedure of CTM for export is different from the local procedure. They

keep in mind certain factors before changing the price in foreign market.

The customer is aware of the name of the company

It has high financial resources

It has competent staff working for the progress of the company

It has automated system of production

Organization has friendly environment

Page 43: Report on Crescent Textile Mills Limited Faisalabad

It has certificate of ISO 9002

It has a wide range of products

It always sets new standards for quality

Its design studio is equipped with latest technology.

It has given a large quota for exports in USA and Europe

Weaknesses Crescent Textile Mills has ignored than local market

Transit time for international market is comparatively long as compared to India and

China.

There is lack of proper training programs especially for workers. They learn through

experience and from seniors that’s the reason o f high rate of wastage during

production.

Wastage is very high especially in spinning sector

Crescent Textile Mills has no proper sale system for cotton waste and yarn waste.

Some time delivery lates due to lack of production planning

Middle level management is de motivated due to low salary package and promotions

are held after a long period

There is no job commitment among the employees.

There is no proper criteria for performance appraisal that’s why staff in not motivated

No measures has been taken to motivate the employees

Opportunities As Crescent Textile Mills is ISO-9002 certified company so it has a chance to increase

& expand business all over the world.

The demand of its products is high in international market

Govt is providing rebate facility

Long term loans are easily available

Company can expand its operations easily

Anti dumping duties in European market are overdrawn, so the chance is to increase the

export as compared to last years.

Devaluation of rupee made Pakistani export more acceptable to the foreign buyers.

There is a chance to compete better now.

Page 44: Report on Crescent Textile Mills Limited Faisalabad

Govt’s pre import-export policy for cotton is also in favor of Crescent Textile Mills.

Threats Foreign investment in textile sector in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and India is a danger in

future for Crescent Textile Mills

It has been seen that many other groups in Pakistan have entered in competition with

Crescent Textile Mills. If they will not be competed well, there is a chance that they

can get share of export from foreign buyers.

South Africa is thinking about to impose the anti-dumping duties on Pakistan textile

exports. If it is imposed, a reasonable export share and big market may be lost.

There is no proper attention towards Russian market. Crescent Textile Mills can get big

orders from Russia. If attention will not be given towards this side there is a chance

that any other competitor can introduce its products in Russia and this market can be

lost.

High inflation rates hinder in competing the Indian yarn at international level.

Fluctuating prices of dollar also affect the purchase of cotton in off-season.

Due to economic crises of eastern countries, so many sales lost during last few years,

but now these countries are again on the road of progress. If the previous customers

are not properly attended, they may be last forever.

Due to military Govt in Pakistan, there is a chance for Pakistan to be declared as a

terror country. So this thing is also a threat for Crescent Textile Mills.

Competitor analysisThe business environment of Crescent Textile Mills is facing tough competition.

Its major competitors are also inside the country as well as in the foreign markets. While

concerning with the countrywide competitors, there are major competitors like Nishat Textile

Mills and there are also other major competitors in the European markets.

The market for textile product is becoming more competitive every year. The customer is

emphasizing on quality over all other things and can easily search the most cost effective

supplier anywhere in the world. Keeping this in view, Crescent Textile Mills focus has been

on meeting its customer’s demands and requirements, improving its competitiveness,

increasing productivity and enhancing its existing quality control systems.

Page 45: Report on Crescent Textile Mills Limited Faisalabad

Following are some findings of our report:

There are no motivating factors for the employees

Companies personal policies are not good

The performance appraisal are not carried regularly

Company is facing the main problem of textile industry crises in the country due to

floods, leaf curl virus etc.

The company is unable to use its full plant capacity, which shows that technical staff is

not up to the standards

The employees are not much aware of latest available computer programs

The management is not doing anything for the purpose of satisfying and motivating

their employees and the workers, which may lead towards the more productivity.

Changing Govt policies are providing problems for the company exports policies.

The short-term solvency and long term solvency of the company is better and still

acceptable, because there is still a margin of getting long-term loan.

The net profit margin in increasing since 1995 but it decreased in 1999.

Page 46: Report on Crescent Textile Mills Limited Faisalabad

Following are some suggestions

A

proper training should be given to the employees and the workers to

enhance their skills to increase their productivity and ultimately of

the company.

The

management should make the market survey time to time to get more and

latest information about the market factors like the price, demand,

current consumer trends etc.

As

the world has become a global village, the management should have the

latest knowledge and information’s about the world because now a little

change in any corner of the world can affect your business.

The top management should give the autonomy and the flexibility to every manage to

make decisions according to the situation at any time and in the absence of the top

managers.

All the duties and responsibilities of the employees and the workers should be clearly

defined.

Page 47: Report on Crescent Textile Mills Limited Faisalabad

The computer technology should also be used in decision making as well as in storing

and feeding the data.

The company should make it possible to deliver the goods to the buyers at the agreed

time.

The company should adopt an efficient appraisal system and give rewards to the

employees who have done well.

The management should recruit right persons for the right job.

The

management should be able to assess the problems before it’s occurring

so that they are able to find the ways of their solution.

The management should hire multi-skilled workers to get economy of scale.

The company should emphasize on its personnel department immediately on

emergency basis.

Long-term solvency is good but time interest ratio should also be improved.

There should be decentralization in decision-making

An effective relationship and coordination between the departments must be there.

It

should be realized to be very clear about the advantages and

disadvantages of each strategy to take effective decision about its

continuity to make an effective strategic implementation.

Crescent Textile Mills should also introduce its brands in local markets.

Company should give proper attention to deal with dead fabric and made ups.

ConclusionWe

Page 48: Report on Crescent Textile Mills Limited Faisalabad

got a lot of experience from Crescent Textile Mills. During our

internship we came to know that how the different activities take place,

what are the procedures

The

Crescent Textile Mills is on the way of progress. It has been earning

profit for the last five years. The management is professionally

qualified and experienced.

The

Crescent Textile Mills should motivate their employees by providing

different incentives. Their salary package is also not attractive. The

performance of the Human Resource department is also not satisfactory.

Crescent

Textile Mill’s product (yarn & cloth) is of high quality. The

demand of Crescent Textile Mill’s products is increasing with the

passage of time. The company should expand its capacity as soon as

possible to satisfy the demands of their customers.Posted in: Faisalabad,Textile Industry
