26. 2) Kellogg's Corn Flakes
 Overview:
Kellogg was the wholly owned Indian subsidiary of the
Kellogg company based in Battle Creek, Michigan in the
United States.
Founded in 1906,had manufacturing facilities in 19
countries and marketed its products in more than 160
countries.

27. In the 1990’s there was the desire by Kellogg’s to
expand.
Stagnating sales in the U.S strengthened this need.
Set up its 30th
manufacturing facility in India with a
total investment of $30million.
Launched in September, 1994, Kellogg’s initial
offerings in India included corn-flakes, wheat-flakes
and Basmati rice flakes.

28. Despite offering good quality products and being
supported by the technical, managerial and financial
resources of its parent, Kellogg's products failed in the
Indian market. Kellogg’s knew it will be difficult to
get Indian customers to accept its products hence it
relied heavily on the quality of its crispy flakes.
Indians liked to boil their milk and consume it warm
or lukewarm, they also like to add sugar to their milk.
The rice and wheat versions did not do well because
sugar could not easily dissolve in cold milk which
made it not sweet enough for the Indians. Some
consumers called the rice flakes, rice corn flakes.

29. Analysts believe that the major reason for Kellogg’s
failure in the Indian market was the fact that the taste
of its products did not suit Indian breakfast habits.
In most third world countries pricing is believed to
play a dominant role in the demand for any product
but Kellogg did not share this position and this
affected the demand for its products. At an average
cost of Rs. 21 per 100 gm, Kellogg products were
clearly priced way above the product of its main
competitor, Mohun Corn-flakes (Rs. 16.50 for 100 gm).
Another small-time brand, Champion was selling at
prices almost half that of Kellogg’s.
