Strengths
ENGRO is a well established brand name in Fertilizer,
IT and infrastructure business. The brand is well known
so customers will automatically have a brand
association with Olper’s
Massive & Effective Promotion is also the strength for
Olper’s
10. Weakness
EFL is not having its own dairy farms; it largely collects
loose milk from farmers which sometimes is of low
quality and impure because they add vegetable oil to
milk to get higher prices.
EFL is dependent upon Tetra Pak for the packaging of its
entire dairy products. Tetra Pak is the only option
available to Olper’s for packaging because it is having
monopoly in the packaging sector in Pakistan
11. Opportunities
Growing dissatisfaction with loose milk and increasing
awareness about health and hygiene issues have led to
increased processed milk consumption
Due to competition olper’s continuously enhancing their
quality
12. Threats
Consumer’s preferences change with time and prices
might create certain barriers in
terms of the profit margins for Olper’s. For example, lose
milk is still cheaper than
packaged milk and that is also one factor that people still
prefer to buy lose milk.

There are no boundaries such as demographic or
geographic for olper’s milk EFL introduced olper’s
milk as all purpose milk its for all genders ages for
all most all social classes and also EFL placed it all
over the Pakistan
Where as EFL segmented olper’s lite as
psychographic they showed in their
advertisement that this milk is for health or diet
conscious people low fait high calcium milk
15. Conclusion
Olper’s milk is very fast growing product. It
established itself in market in a very short time. By
this speed it, just in 2 or 3 years it will take over of all
its competitors.
Notas do Editor
Government has decided to increase farmers’ funding. This is an opportunity for ENGRO foods because previously due to weather conditions and other reasons there was lots of wastage of milk but now that can be reduced as farmers will be better able to store milk for longer time periods.
