Conclusion
NFL is one of those companies who are dedicated to supplying their all products of
highest quality yet a reasonable price for worldwide customers. Human resource policy

many people. Although NFL has to sustain their glorious brand image and market share
among all food companies in the market, such as Shan and Mehran and Shingrilla, it has
been maintaining a crescent and elegant position due to various distinguishing factors
with induces their respect towards employees, suppliers and concern for customer’s needs
and wants.

Recommendation
It makes us extremely happy to recommend National Foods. National Foods have a
biggest market share in Karachi but has less preference than Shan foods. We would
recommend to National Foods to make such type of strategies which can compete with
Shan Foods. People of Karachi love to eat spicy foods and Shan foods are providing the
same.
NFL should focus to build loyal customers in Karachi as well, by enhancement in their
spices as per people’s requirement.
National foods should also work for promoting their quality products. As we know after
this research that NFL has great quality criterion, NFL use world’s famous
microbiologists to recognize the food quality but people are not aware of this hygienic
factor of National Foods that NFL is leading brand in advancement of technologies and
for healthy food.
We also want to recommend to NFL that should do something for your employees to
make them realize that they are so mean to the organization. With bonuses and incentive
NFL should give them few authorities, as per their levels so that they feel satisfied with
their jobs and designations, because this is very authentic and a biggest issue even in well
known organizations for increasing turn over.
