History: Francis J. Mitchell arrived in Bombay from Scotland at

the end of World War I. He had been invited by his brother who was already established in North Western India as contractor to the government for construction of the railway network. At that time, an opportunity came to his way in the form of the emerging irrigation system being laid out in the canal colony districts of West Punjab. He was successful in obtaining the lease of 720 acres of agricultural land in the Montgomery (Later Sahiwal but now it is in Okara District premises) district. He initiated the business of growing grapes for eventual sale as dried raisins and sent his younger son Richard to Australia for training at Mildura which was well known as a center of specialization in the field of horticulture.The Company, with Francis Mitchell as its Governing Director and his two sons Leonard and Richard as Directors, was incorporated in 1933 and given the name Indian Mildura Fruit Farms Ltd

GCU Faisalabad

Strengths

Oldest company of Pakistan.

ISO 9001 Award in 1998.

International recognition.

Own reputation in market.

Own growing and processing facilities at one location.

Single national company that has variety in flavors.

Molded chocolate (praline) is very popular in all over the world till

2001 no national company was producing molded chocolate in the

country.


GCU Faisalabad

Weaknesses

Less support of Promotions.

Hardly advertising on the Media.

The management style that has adopted by the company is bureaucratic

Degree of formalization and centralization is high.

Not serious in promoting its brands.

Don’t have any short term and long-term decision-making plan.

Decreasing growth rate and eventually losing market shares.

As we know that there is severe competition in the food industry, but still the

availability of Mitchell’s products is very poor.

Company is offering fewer discounts as compare to other relevant industry’s

companies like Shezan, National, Rafhan, Salman’s and Ahmed to retailers

and distributors.


GCU Faisalabad

Opportunities

Have an opportunity to target untapped market segments.

Creating new horizons for the food processing companies.

Increase the depths of its existing products categories.

The company may invest in new product categories.

Other very open opportunity for the company is that the company may

invest in new product categories like mineral water, cheese, snakes and

other dairy products.


GCU Faisalabad

Threats

Increased competition (shezan food ,national food,rafahan food

etc.)

Politically Instability

Additional general sales taxes and tough economic conditions of

the country are reducing the purchasing power of the people.

Increasing Market Share of Competitors.

The competition in the food processing industry is much severe

than the past. Now the many national companies are joining

hands with multi-national corporations for additional support in

terms of marketing activities, production expertise and financial

resources.

Suggestions

During our visit I observe that Mitchell’s squashes are

available on almost every outlet in bulk quantity. But the

availability of guava and pineapple flavor was not so

good.

The display of Mitchell’s squashes was not so good

versus its competitors.

The company can also expand its business in other

product ranges like butter, cheese, mineral water, snacks

etc.

The new brands of squashes that are pineapple and

guava have not get excellent response from the

customers just because of poor advertisement campaign.

Proper advertisement was necessary to create

awareness an interest for new brands.


GCU Faisalabad

Conclusion

Mitchell’s is very much conscious and

careful about its sales and about the
