BRAND HISTORY
In 1824, John Cadbury opened a shop in Birmingham. This one-man business,
trading mainly in Tea & Coffee was to be the foundation of Cadbury Limited. For
over 100 years Cadbury was a family business. In 1943 non family directors were
appointed. In 1847, the enterprise had prospered to a large factory in Bridge Street,
Birmingham. John Cadbury took his brother Benjamin into partnership and the
family business became Cadbury Brothers Birmingham.
The business moved to Bourneville after outgrowing the Bridge Street Factory.
The Workforce had risen up to 200 after 32 years at Bridge Street. After the death
of two brothers in 1899, the company was privatized. It entered the era of scientific
management; it introduced new ideas for their department like:

Kuch Meetha Ho Jaye
Dairy Milk has been meticulously built around the world by Cadbury. It has been
able to sustain a strong position in the market. There are many branding elements
which have resulted into consistent result of its success. Few more Branding
Elements are as given below:
MARKETING PROGRAMS OVER THE YEARS
70% of market share is held by Cadbury alone in chocolate industry till 2002 (Out
of which 30% is held by Dairy milk alone). It has maintained this by constantly re-
inventing the brand and bombarding communication towards the consumer
consistently to maintain top of mind recall in the confectionery segment. Dairy
Milk has emerged as the No.1 most trusted brand in Mumbai for the 2005 edition
of Brand Equity's Most Trusted Brands survey. Here are some of the Innovative
Ad campaigns of Cadbury Dairy Milk:

Insignia

Logo
Logo which comes on the packaging in bold vintage Dairy font in white which also shows the relatio of milk with the product.
Real Taste of Life Campaign
Promotion in the early 90's, chocolates were seen as 'meant for kids‘. In the Mid
90's the category was re-defined by the very popular `Real Taste of Life' campaign,
shifting the focus from `just for kids' to the `kid in all of us'. It appealed to the child
in every adult. And Cadbury Dairy Milk became the perfect expression of
'spontaneity' and 'shared good feelings'. The 'Real Taste of Life' campaign which
people still fondly remember was that of a girl dancing on the cricket field which
remained etched in everyone's memory, as the most spontaneous & un-inhibited
expression of happiness. This campaign went on to be awarded 'The Campaign of
the Century', in India at the Abby (Ad Club, Mumbai) awards.
Khanewalon Ko Khane Ka Bahana Chahiye Campaign
In the late 90's, to further expand the category, the focus shifted towards widening
chocolate consumption amongst the masses, through the 'Khanewalon Ko Khane
Ka Bahana Chahiye' campaign. This campaign built social acceptance for
chocolate consumption amongst adults, by showcasing collective and shared
moments.
Pappu Pass Ho Gaya & Miss Palampur Campaign:
Here, the campaign associated Cadbury Dairy Milk with celebratory occasions and
the phrase "Pappu Pass Ho Gaya" became part of street language help to hold the
market share by segmenting the kids as well as Younger people despite the bitter
moments, hoping that the future will be much sweeter. Similar thoughts went into
the Miss Palampur campaign aligned to ‘Pappu’ wherein Dairy Milk becomes a
part of the big celebrations in life even with strangers.
Tolani Institute of Management StudiesPage 13
Payday Campaign
PayDay campaign was a rather narrow interpretation of the occasion based
positioning; Cadbury India unveiled a new campaign that continued with the
brand's 'Kucch Meetha Ho Jaye' positioning. The campaign revolved around the
theme of 'Pay Day', which is associated with happiness by most people. This new
campaign takes the concept of celebrations to yet another level. The commercial
kept the core promise of happiness while introducing another 'moment of joy' in
one’s life. Cadbury highlights the celebratory occasion of pay day, which is an
important event in the life of every middle class Indian.
Shubh Aarambh Campaign (meaning Auspicious Beginning)
Cadbury's Dairy Milk has recently launched this campaign which is the refined
version of the earlier Payday campaign which evoked mixed response from the Ad
analysts and consumers. The Shubh Aarambh campaign reinforces the occasion
based positioning of Dairy Milk. The brand has been trying to position itself as a
symbol of enjoyment and celebrations.
Indians have the tradition of sharing sweets on auspicious occasions and also when
one initiates a venture/activity. Whether the activity is small like writing an exam
or huge like starting a company, sharing of sweets is an integral part of the event.
The belief is that good things happen when one starts a venture on a positive note
(like sharing sweets). Dairy Milk very cleverly captured this tradition and
incorporated into its brand story. The new campaign takes the brand to the center
of this tradition linking Dairy Milk to Sweet and Auspicious Beginnings. Shubh
Aarambh has given the brand a broad playing ground.

Today, Cadbury Dairy Milk alone holds 30% value share of chocolate market 50%
of molded chocolate segment. One of the largest chocolate brands in the country
Indian market & specifically urban areas where the penetration of chocolates is
increasing, brings a need for efficiency in logistics & distribution. Cadbury Dairy
Milk is easily available anywhere when we need it. Still, the supply chain of
Cadbury Dairy Milk is very good. Also it is quality conscious. So the two main
types of benefits given by Cadbury Dairy Milk are supply and quality.

Since Dairy Milk is positioned towards a very large audience from ages 4 – 50
years, the pricing strategy is extremely affordable and easily accessible to all
categories. Hence prices range from Rs.5 to a Maximum of Rs.20 in different sizes.

is thus priced at Rs.50.

BRAND EXPLORATORY
Customer Knowledge
Cadbury dairy Milk has been trying to get out of the image of” Just another
chocolate” and become something special in the minds of the people. They have
also been trying to position themselves as chocolates for all age groups and not just
kids. The campaign has successfully created a picture in the mind of the customers
that Cadbury is not just a chocolate but means of celebrations.

EmotionalConnect
The main sources of Brand Equity are Brand Awareness and Brand Image.
Cadburys’ Dairy Milk not only enjoys high levels of Brand Awareness but
Unaided Brand Recall. This level of recall is generated when Dairy Milk enjoys
the Top of the Mind effect. The brand image of Cadburys’ Dairy Milk plays an
important role in building the Brand Equity of Dairy Milk through the medium if
unique brand associations.
These associations based on the Brand Perception segment in the analysis, are
favourable as consumers relate to it as a chocolate for every occasion/ celebration.
Right from the Kuch Meetha Ho Jaaye campaign to the recent Shubh Aarambh,
Cadburys’ Dairy Milk has managed to create strong, unique, favourable brand
associations in the minds of the consumers which is commendable.
To assist its brand recall and brand image are strong supports that Dairy Milk
receives from the robust distribution system (availability) and memorable
packaging which only adds to the brand associations for Dairy Milk and help build
its brand equity. This product has built such a brand image that it has attracted the
consumers so they will not like to switch over to other brands especially since they
are competitively priced which aids consumer preference even more.
Other sources of Brand Equity for Dairy Milk are:
1. Emotional Connect
2. Consumer’s taste and preferences
Tolani Institute of Management StudiesPage 21
Brand Ambassadors
As we know that previously Dairy Milk was only considered as Chocolate, but
their new campaign has changed this perception of consumers. As discussed above
now Dairy Milk is considered as Traditional sweet of Indian culture (Mithai)
which people give to their near and dear ones on the occasions and now they use
Dairy Milk as sweet (Mithai). Brand Ambassador chosen for Dairy Milk is none
other than Megastar Amitabh Bacchhan. He endorsed the brand so successfully
that everyone loved the brand much more than they did. The endorsement has
successfully captured the Indian festivals like Rakshabandhan, Diwali, Wedding,
Birthdays etc. Now people give Dairy Milk as token of love, care and affection to
their friends and family.

of Dairy Milk is high and
compared to that Amul Milk
chocolate is preferred.

Brand Image over the years.
Dairy Milk is somewhat
lacking in other emerging
markets. It has strong
command over its brand image
in India and Europe But other
places it is lacking.
It offers quality product with
innovations with innovative
communication campaign
Dairy Milk has huge command
over its distribution network
spanning across India.
-

Tolani Institute of Management StudiesPage 27
Threats Opportunities
Increasing competition from
international brands is biggest
threat to Dairy Milk
To introduce sugar free category is
biggest opportunity for Dairy Milk.

industry.
Dairy Milk can innovate more by
bringing international flavors so
that is also gets an opportunity to
compete with this threat as well.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Cadbury should seriously consider focussing on the energy/ health bar
segment for the Indian market. It should also innovate to cater to the calorie
conscious.
Attractive displays at the payment counter will induce impulse buying. They
can also consider coming up with their exclusive ‘Chocolate Boutiques’.
For festivals like Christmas Dairy milk can introduce special chocolates like
rum and champagne flavoured chocolates.
