In this regard, the companies which were chosen to be analyzed are NESTLE PAKISTAN and ENGRO FOODS LIMITED. Both the companies as well-reputed in the market and deal in a very wide range of food products.
As NESTLE, a very, well-known brand started its business life with only one product and that was condensed milk for infants. As of now, it has captured everyone’s mind for its tempting products; like chocolates, coffee, bottled water, powdered milk, flavored milk, tea whitener, and many more. The company has strong marketing strategies to come up with a competitive market.

Twenty-nine of Nestle’s brands have an annual share of over CHF 1 billion (about US $1.1 billion), including Nespresso, Nescafe, Kit Kat, Smarties, Vittel and Maggi.

SWOT ANALYSIS:
Strengths:
The strength of Nestle is the presence of its factories or operations in almost every country in the world employing around 283 00 people. The sales values have touched CHF 109.9 billion. Nestle has recorded a financial growth win in times of recession.
Weaknesses:
Nestle does not have direct market outlets and this can be one of the weaknesses as it can cause a difference to profit made. There another weakness is not having enough raw material production units; they depend on either local raw material producers or through other trade channels.
Opportunities:
Nestle’s weakness of not having a direct outlet can be concerted as an opportunity by the introduction of new direct outlets. The acquisition of Cadbury’s for example is an opportunity since they are one the main competitors for Nestle, setting up their personal farms and raw material production units is an opportunity as it would reduce the cost for nestle. By acquisition, Neste can enter into a new market.
Threats:
Their weakness of not being enough raw material production units and their dependency on other producers can threaten to reduce the quality of the products they offer. The contamination of food products is a major threat to Nestle in the market. Intense competition in its market segments also possesses a major challenge.
