FMCG Sector

What are Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG)?

Products which have a quick turnover, and relatively low cost are known as Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG). FMCG products are those that get replaced within a year. Examples of FMCG generally include a wide range of frequently purchased consumer products such as toiletries, soap, cosmetics, tooth cleaning products, shaving products and detergents, as well as other non-durables such as glassware, bulbs, batteries, paper products, and plastic goods. FMCG may also include pharmaceuticals, consumer electronics, packaged food products, soft drinks, tissue paper, and chocolate bars.

A subset of FMCGs is Fast Moving Consumer Electronics which include innovative electronic products such as mobile phones, MP3 players, digital cameras, GPS Systems and Laptops. These are replaced more frequently than other electronic products.

White goods in FMCG refer to household electronic items such as Refrigerators, TVs, Music Systems, etc.

In 2005, the Rs. 48,000-crore FMCG segment was one of the fast growing industries in India. According to the AC Nielsen India study, the industry grew 5.3% in value between 2004 and 2005

Indian FMCG Sector

The Indian FMCG sector is the fourth largest in the economy and has a market size of US$13.1 billion. Well-established distribution networks, as well as intense competition between the organised and unorganised segments are the characteristics of this sector. FMCG in India has a strong and competitive MNC presence across the entire value chain. It has been predicted that the FMCG market will reach to US$ 33.4 billion in 2015 from US $ billion 11.6 in 2003. The middle class and the rural segments of the Indian population are the most promising market for FMCG, and give brand makers the opportunity to convert them to branded products. Most of the product categories like jams, toothpaste, skin care, shampoos, etc, in India, have low per capita consumption as well as low penetration level, but the potential for growth is huge.

The Indian Economy is surging ahead by leaps and bounds, keeping pace with rapid urbanization, increased literacy levels, and rising per capita income.

The big firms are growing bigger and small-time companies are catching up as well. According to the study conducted by AC Nielsen, 62 of the top 100 brands are owned by MNCs, and the balance by Indian companies. Fifteen companies own these 62 brands, and 27 of these are owned by Hindustan Lever. Pepsi is at number three followed by Thums Up. Britannia takes the fifth place, followed by Colgate (6), Nirma (7), Coca-Cola (8) and Parle (9). These are figures the soft drink and cigarette companies have always shied away from revealing. Personal care, cigarettes, and soft drinks are the three biggest categories in FMCG. Between them, they account for 35 of the top 100 brandHR Challenges In FMCG In India

Over the past three to four years, the global economy has gone through a tremendous change and the looming the rest of a double dip and triple dip recession. The environment that organisations are operating in today is on characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity. The Indian economy has also not remained isolated from the economic turmoil that the world is going many industries have seen slowdown and organizational decision making is today market by cautiousness changes in demographic composition of the population and thus the market would also continue to impact the FMCG Industry.

Major HR challenges in FMCG sector in India are as follows:

1. Managing Knowledge Workers:Essentially, here we are looking at different kind of people who does not obey the principles of management for the traditional group. This boils down to higher educational qualifications, taking up responsibilities at a lesser age and experience, high bargaining power due to the knowledge and skills in hand, high demand for the knowledge workers and techno suaveness.

2. Managing Technological Challenges:

In every arena organizations are getting more and more technologically oriented. Though it is not in the main run after the initial debates preparing the work force to accept technological changes is a major challenge.

3. Competence Of HR Mangers:

As it is more and more accepted that lot of success of organizations depend on the human capital, this boils to recruiting the best, managing the best. Clearly HR managers have a role in this process.

4. Developing Leadership:

It is quite interesting to note that there is less importance given to developing leadership at the organizational level. Though leadership is discussed on basis of traits and certain qualities, at an organizational level it is more based on knowledge.

5. Managing Change:

Business environment in India is volatile. There is boom in terms of opportunities brought forward by globalization. However this is also leading to many interventions in terms of restricting, turnaround, mergers, downsizing, etc. HR has a pivotal role to play here.

There are 11 HLL brands in the 21, aggregating Rs. 3,799 crore or 54% of the personal care category. Cigarettes account for 17% of the top 100 FMCG sales, and just below the personal care category. ITC alone accounts for 60% volume market share and 70% by value of all filter cigarettes in India. The foods category in FMCG is gaining popularity with a swing of launches by HLL, ITC, Godrej, and others. This category has 18 major brands, aggregating Rs. 4,637 crore. Nestle and Amul slug it out in the powders segment. The food category has also seen innovations like softies in ice creams, chapattis by HLL, ready to eat rice by HLL and pizzas by both GCMMF and Godrej Pillsbury. This category seems to have faster development than the stagnating personal care category. Amul, India's largest foods company, has a good presence in the food category with its ice-creams, curd, milk, butter, cheese, and so on. Britannia also ranks in the top 100 FMCG brands, dominates the biscuits category and has launched a series of products at various prices.

US$ 420 million) in 2005-2006, Dabur has brands like Dabur Amla, Dabur Chyawanprash, Vatika, Hajmola and Real. Asian Paints is enjoying a formidable presence in the Indian sub-continent, Southeast Asia, Far East, Middle East, South Pacific, Caribbean, Africa and Europe. Asian Paints is India's largest paint company, with a turnover of Rs.22.6 billion (around USD 513 million). Forbes Global magazine, USA, ranked Asian Paints among the 200 Best Small Companies in the World

Cadbury India is the market leader in the chocolate confectionery market with a 70% market share and is ranked number two in the total food drinks market. Its popular brands include Cadbury's Dairy Milk, 5 Star, Eclairs, and Gems. The Rs.15.6 billion (USD 380 Million) Marico is a leading Indian group in consumer products and services in the Global Beauty and Wellness space.

OutlookThere is a huge growth potential for all the FMCG companies as the per capita consumption of almost all products in the country is amongst the lowest in the world. Again the demand or prospect could be increased further if these companies can change the consumer's mindset and offer new generation products. Earlier, Indian consumers were using non-branded apparel, but today, clothes of different brands are available and the same consumers are willing to pay more for branded quality clothes. It's the quality, promotion and innovation of products, which can drive many sectors.INTRODUCTION TO UNILEVER

Unilever was formed through the 1930 merger of Dutch margarine company Margarine Unie and British soap maker Lever Brothers. The combination of the two companies made good sense--they both used the same raw materials, had similar distribution channels and participated in large-scale marketing of household products. In the beginning, Unilever had operations in 40 countries, but soon expanded its reach. The 1950s saw the company focusing on growth by investing in research and new technologies, while it began expanding through acquisitions in the 1970s and 1980s.

These days, Unilever has diversified its product offerings far beyond margarine and soap. The company controls a supermarket's worth of brands: Hellmann's mayonnaise, Flora and Becel spreads and yogurt drinks, Breyers ice creamBoursin cheese, Dove soap, shampoo, body wash, deodorant and more, Pond's face products, Wish-Bone salad dressings, Knorr soup mixes, seasonings and sauces, Bertolli sauces, olive oil and frozen prepared meals, Ragu sauces, Q-tips, Lipton teas, soups and seasonings (Lipton's Yellow Label is one of the most popular teas in the world) and--phew!--Karo syrup.
