Unibic India: From Fastest Growing Niche Cookie Brand to a Challenger?

In 2007, Lighthouse Funds acquired a 25% stake in Unibic from Unibic Australia for Rs. 200 million. In 2010,

Unibic Australia started making losses and wanted to withdraw from the Indian market. At that time, Unibic

operated solely in the premium, high-margin cookies segment in India, with a share of around 8%. It had a

market presence primarily in south India and was exporting to the Middle East and Hong Kong. It had strategic

alliances to make cookies for various private players. However, it was not yet making profits and was cash-

strapped...

Over the next few years, Unibic grew rapidly. Its growth was primarily fueled by the changes sweeping through

the Indian biscuit industry, wherein glucose biscuits that had dominated the market, gradually lost out to cream

biscuits and cookies. The reasons for the shift included rising disposable incomes leading to an increase in

consumption of premium biscuits; a larger number of manufacturing facilities of premium biscuits; growing

health awareness; innovation bringing in attractive new products; rising affordability of cookies; and increase

in eye-catching packaging...

Over the years, Unibic regularly introduced fresh and unique flavors, ultimately producing over 30 variants of

cookies. Its products could be broadly categorized into chocolate, butter, milk, savory, and health. The company

considered its target market to be between the ages of 14 and 40. It continued its efforts at innovation and

produced new products which would appeal to its target market...

In 2015, Unibic had used celebrity endorsement by signing on south Indian actor Shruti Hassan, for over a year.

It stated that it wanted someone who was relevant and would give the brand a boost to get to the numbers it

wanted in the South...

Unibic didn’t advertise much in print media; TV remained the company’s core focus and got the largest chunk

of its advertising spend, followed by digital and OOH. Instead of following the traditional strategy of having a

similar marketing campaign across markets, Unibic employed a unique strategy in each market, thereby playing

to its strengths in each market while keeping in mind the market conditions and consumption patterns...

From 2019 onward, Unibic started feeling the heat of the economic slowdown in India. The Indian economic

slowdown of 2019 led to a serious and continuing decline in the country’s real estate, automobile and

construction sectors and in overall consumption demand. The second quarter (July- September) of the financial

year (April 2019-March 2020) witnessed a drastic fall in the gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate to 4.5%.

The main reasons attributed to the fall in the GDP growth rate were – contraction in manufacturing activity,

weakened investments, and lower consumption demand.

As of 2020, Unibic had the largest wire cut cookie manufacturing plant in India. The plant had the capability to

manufacture 100 tonnes of cookies each day, with five production lines. While it used 98% of its production

capability to produce its own brand, the rest was used to manufacture for private label brands – six in India and

10 across the world. It had annual revenu7 es of Rs. 5 billion. It also exported its products to more than 21

countries including across Australia, North America, the UK, and Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and New

Zealand. It derived 45% of its earnings from the south of India.

Questions:

a) Explain three factors that had a negative impact on the financial performance of Unibic in its early years.

(6 marks)

b) Which environmental force did Unibic use in segmenting its market? What is this force about? (6 marks)

c) What does the following statement suggest to you about Unibic: “It continued its efforts at innovation

and produced new products which would appeal to its target market”?​

d) Which marketing strategy did Unibic use in 2015 and explain any two (2) reasons why firms adopt that
strategy? (9 marks)

e) What main media did Unibic use to implement its marketing strategy? State one advantage of this media.
