1.2 Methodologyy This project was carried out mainly using secondary data collection. Secondary

data collection refers to data that is collected by someone other than the user. It is

the data that has already been collected, and is readily available from other sources.

y There are two types of secondary data ± quantitative secondary data andqualitative secondary data. Quantitative secondary data can be obtained bylooking at past records containing statistics, and most databases related to census,

housing and social security. On the other hand, semi-structured and structuredinterviews, field notes, observation records and other personal, research-related

document serve as sources for qualitative secondary data collection.

For this research paper, we have chosen to use secondary data collection. Data for this paper has been collected mainly through:

1. The companies¶ official websites,

2. Research papers and statistics online,3. More resources available on the Internet.

1.3.2 ± Britannia Industries Ltd.Britannia Industries Ltd. offers a wide range of products available for sale. They are

divided into different sub-strategic business units (SBU), such as:

y SBU 1 Biscuits (cookies and cakes),

y SBU 2 Daily Bread (freshly baked goods),

y SBU 3 Dairy Products (milk, cheese and butter).

They are divided into different sub-strategic business units (SBU). I have chosen to analyze their

range of Dairy Products.

Figure 1.3.2.(a) shows the Target Market Equation for Britannia Dairy Products

The figure above shows that Britannia Industries Ltd. functions mainly in India. Focusing

on their range of Biscuits, it can be seen that these products are versatile as they can be consumed

of people from age 3 years above. Also it shows that they are most popular amongst people of lower income groups to middle income groups in India.
