Research Report
INTRODUCTION
BACK GROUND
After the world war 2nd, industrial development accelerated ampliphicatedly in
multidimensional all over the world especially in America and Western Europe. In therace of industrial tremendous development although industrial products based on
modulated and sophisticated technology, received the bright concentration of the
industrial nations, yet consumer products also caught the attraction of particular group of
manufactures seeking profit orientation vide satisfaction.
Agriculture being the vocation of the majority was considered the genuine industry to be
technologies worldwide. So this recognized phenomenon amplified the agro-based
industry astonishingly and unprecedented during the last three decades. As the market-oriented concept of business and trade holds the popular and attractive vase behind the
process of manufacturing consumer goods, the progressive businessman to explore new
fields, and niches resulting in consumer satisfaction do always efforts. This enchantingand fascinating process of exploration and Research was basic factor, which brought
about the origin and innovation of milk industry to meet some unsatisfied needs of milk-
consumer.
It is an accepted fact the milk from the very origin of mans life on the earth, has been the
most likely and captivating food its energetic qualities. In the early days, milk could be
easily managed and availed. But with the industrial growth, population explosion, change
in life style, above all over, increasing consumption of the meats of milk generating cattleand their evacuation from cities caused the problems of milk scarcity and unavailability
at its unprecedented and gravity level, especially, in the big crowded cities. To meet this
milk scarcity problems, powder milk was launched into market but it could not achievethe real target despite its propagation and advertisement of its hygienic effects and still
the need of fresh and natural milk were felt among the consumer.
Realizing this very need and same other socio-psychological factors e.g. Its purchasewithout any pot; tetra-pack mils was introduced and expectedly it captured a reasonable
market share not only at its starting period but it always on the paths of increase and

PROCESS OF PACKED MILK
Packed milk is a processed milk. We collect milk from the approved dairy farms and
process it keeping the highest standards. Many people doubt that packed milk is made of
chemicals or its proceeds synthetically but it is a quite misleading conception.
MILK COLLECTION
The method adopted in collection of milk from dairies is, to only collect milk from theapproved suppliers who are running their cattle farms in accordance with the prescribed
standards. The temperature is maintained at 80C without adding ice. The chiller
containers are especially cleaned before milk is stored in them. This milk is then
transported to the factory.
FACTORY RECEPTION
As soon as milk reaches the factory reception the qualified chemists and microbiologistsfor conducting a series of tests once again test it. This enables us to mark the milk
confirming it to be international standards.
PROCESS
The milk is then pasteurized at 780C killing 98% germs / bacteria. The milk after
pasteurization is then standardized as prescribed by the Pakistan Pure Food Laws at 35%
fats and 8.9% SNF (Solid Non-Fats). This process makes it a premium quality product.
STANDARDIZATION
Standardization is a process in which the excess fats and SNFs are removed from the
milk in order to achieve the standard of 3.5% Fat and 8.9% SNF as prescribed by the
Pakistan.
HOMOGENIZATION
Homogenization is a process in which all the cream in the milk is mixed. In this process,
milk is passed through 200 Bars of pressure, which in turn breaks each cell to 0.5
microns, which is 200 times smaller than its actual size.
By applying this enormous pressure the entire cream mixes in the milk. This process
makes every drop of Haleeb milk highly nutritional, energy giving and homogeneous to
the other parts. That is why, on boiling Haleeb does not accumulate cream on its top like
ordinary milk.
UHT

By means of this process, the milk passes through 140 C in 3 seconds and then cooled upimmediately to 20 C with in the next 5 seconds, which in turn kills all the bacteria. This is
fate most sophisticated and advanced process being adopted throughout the world. At
dairies we use the indirect method of HUT and milk is heated by steam passing throughstainless steel pipes. All other brands in Pakistan use the direct method of heating by
injecting steam in the milk. These ads water contents in milk, where as indirect heatingin fact evaporates water from the milk. This is what makes Haleeb the thickest milk
SKIMS MILK
There are mainly two types of milk powders, full cream and skimmed. SKIMZ is askimmed milk powder. Full cream powder contains 28% fat, whereas SKIMS as
compared to full cream milk powder.
BENEFITS OF SKIMMED MILK
Researched all over the world have identified the following benefits of using low- fatmilk powder:
-Low cholesterol content helps prevent high blood pressure and various cardiac disorders.
-Low fat content helps you stay smart.
-High protein content helps strengthen and builds muscles.
-Low fat milk can reduce the risk of intestinal cancer.
-Low fat milk helps in reducing the Alzheimers disease.
HOW IS SKIMS PRODUCED?
Milk is collected from the best available sources. It is pasteurized to kill all pathogenic
bacteria. All fat is removed from the milk and water is evaporated from it under vacuum.It is then spray dried. Spray drying increases the quality of solubility of milk powder,
making it more instant. The product is then packed in aluminum foil to protect it from
bacteria, heat and light, and to preserve its freshness and flavor.

CHANNEL OF DISTRIBUTION
In the business world, consumer is the most important figure. Health of well being the
consumer sets the future prosperity and performance of business. If the good are properly
channeled and sold to consumer the activity of the production begins to cease.
Mainly the question lies who our customer is and where they are located? What they
want? And what price they are willing to pay for our product?
The question is how to reach them? This task involves the establishment of strategy
covering channels of distributions and physical distribution of the product.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK AND METHODOLOGY
PROBLEM STATEMENT
To what extent, people are responding towards the packed milk? The superiority ofpacked milk is in the areas of hygiene, convenience, taste, nourishment and affordable
price. Price of packed milk is though higher, but it is economical in the sense that its
quantity required to make a certain number of tea cups is half of that of fresh milk.
We have observed that in spite of these facts, most of the families prefer fresh milk. Why
is this so? Problem is to be defined and investigation is to be carried out that whether
fresh milk is really preferred over packed milk or not and what could be the possible
reasons for it.
HYPOTHESIS:
Ho = Fresh milk is preferred over packed milk.
Hi = Packed milk is preferred over fresh milk.
People prefer fresh milk, because of its easy availability, low price, free from germs and
good taste.
Based on the observations, the most important variables in comparison of fresh andpacked milk are quality, price, hygiene, taste and nourishment the variable of primary
interest or the dependent variable is preference for the type of milk. The independent
variables influencing are below:

CONCLUSION
From the research conducted, it has been observed that.
1. There is no signification relation between the use of packed milk and fresh milk.
2. About 83.6% people use only fresh milk l whereas only 4% people use packed milk.The rest of people use both packed and fresh milk. Therefore, the hypothesis stated
earlier, i.e. fresh milk is preferred over packed milk, is accepted on the basis of results.
3. Also, the relationship of education with use of packed milk is not very strong. Itsdifficult to determine how educated a family is? Moreover, the method used by us to
calculate the educational score is quite tricky, and it is difficult to fix parameter of
educated family.
4. All families are aware of the advertisement of packed milk. About 56% families, who
dont use packed milk at all, have awareness of advertisements of packed milk.
5. The influence on purchasing decision of the people after watching the advertisement is
not much.
6. Usage pattern of the people does not seem to affect the purchasing decision in case ofpacked milk. The following table summarizes the usage rate for people who use fresh
milk alone, and people who use packed milk along with fresh milk.
Usage People using fresh milk alone People using packed milk
along with fresh milk
0-2 Liters 60 % 100.00%3-4-2 Liters 24 % 00
>4 Liters 16 % 00
Total:- 100.00% 100.00%
7. Those people, who purchase fresh milk, mostly purchase from doorstep Same is the
case with those people who use both fresh and packed milk.
7/31/2019 Live BRM Project
23/26
8. In case of those people, who use fresh milk, they use 72.5 % for drinking and 25% formaking tea. As compare to people, who use packed milk just use 49% it for drinking, and
51% for making tea. We have observe that basically it is the quality and the high cost,
which makes the packed milk undesirable for drinking. Whereas, it is more desirable for
the purpose of making tea.
9. While considering the importance of various factors, the following tables depicts etc.
various results:
Table 1
Price Quality Availability Taste Total
Fresh 22.51% 48% 10% 19.5% 100%
Packed 7% 15% 24% 54% 100%
Table 2
Hygienic Nourishment
Fresh 60 % 72 %
Packed 40 % 28 %
Total 100.00 % 100.00%
Now it is easy to conclude from the table 1 that those people who use fresh milk, the
major factor influencing their purchasing decisions are the quality and prices, which are
the most important factors. As compare to the people, using packed milk, the majorfactors influencing their purchasing decisions are the taste and prices which are the most
important factors.
Further it can be conclude form the table 2 that the fresh milk has more hygienic and
nourishing factors as compare to packed milk.
10. When we conducted research, we face a lot of problems which was, however, covered
during research as following:
i. Sampling should have been done in order to clearly identify the distinct areas in thecity, which are different from each other in buying decisions and habits, for example
people form Cantt. Are quite different from people of new Multan. However, this aspect
was covered tactfully psychologically.
ii. The proper cluster of various income level made it difficulty to identify more clearlythe buying pattern of packed milk on people were reluctant to reply the questionnaire.
