2. Factors Affecting Price Strategies
Cost of Raw Material
Government Steps
Cost Of Raw Material :
21
The cost of milk which the company gets from the farmers is a very
important factor which affects the prices; because in the months from
October to February the shortage of cow milk occurs in the market
and the suppliers supply the milk on high prices which affects the
prices.
Government Interference :
The Government interference is the second important factor which
affects the company in the matter of pricing strategy i.e. Increase in
the prices of oil and other energy resources. These factors highly
affect the supplier and they increase the prices which directly affects
the cost.
Placement
MilkPak is not sold directly to consumers. A complete distribution
process is followed. It uses indirect channels for distribution like:

Market Segmentation
31
For getting the maximum market share and respect of the product
in the minds of the consumer, as per our observation and market
survey we have concluded that Nestle MilkPak segmentation is
based on two points.
Demographic Segmentation
In-Store Display Segmentation
Demographic Segmentation:
Family, Age & Income
Milk Pack has made different sizes of Tetra packs which can match the
needs of buyers, ranging from 0.25 liters to 1.5 liter. Buyers can buy
according to their need between these quantities.
In-Store Display Segmentation
32
Nestle have also segmented Milk Pack on the bases of In-Store display
segmentation.
In this type of segmentation the company have given different shelves in
big stores and also given the chillers to some of the agent having the Milk
Pack sticker upon them but in Pakistan unfortunately the shop keepers
are not using the shelves properly and they have put other brand
products on those shelves
33
Conclusions
Nestle is a market leader due to different reasons:
Its price is high against its competitors but it matches its quality
with its competitors.
Nestle is today the world’s largest food and beverage company with
its mission to provide healthier lifestyle.
Nestle is using its brand name and its packaging is good to promote
its products.
We can easily find Nestle from any retailer shop
