Image of the company

When considering the packaging industry it is most important to understand the nature of the market. Packaging is a major point of differentiation in most consumable goods, where competition is intense, prices are already low, and packaging can provide a tremendous marketing advantage at the point of sale. An image of a company that we project will be key factor to attract and retain customer. We will develop an image for our company which will be the mixture of-

10.1 Promotion-

To promote our product we will use several tools such as in the initial step we will give customers price discount free product in some particular size of order. To promote it to the customer we will give notebook, calendar, and diary having the name of our company. In future step we will give an annual dinner party for our regular customer. Promotion will be done mostly through personal selling by our executive team. We have developed a detailed sales presentation and have clearly selected companies we will target for personal presentations. We will reinforce the brand name and the main points of product usefulness. Our promotional features are:

· Objectives:

The objective is to create a strong awareness about the product and also the brand. We want people to mug our product usefulness and taglines. The “Evince packaging company limited” will create a strong position in the minds of the target customers.

· Message:

The promotional outputs will convey the clear message that “Evince packaging company limited” is better than others in the case of quality. The slogan of our company will be “Let us be your partner for ever”. We want use the sentiments of the consumer to deliver our message.

10.2 Advertising–

Advertising will be done mostly through personal selling. We will also give ad to the different types of newspaper s, billboard. In the business fair we will give our stall to advertise our product. Basically our strong sales force will be personally involved in the advertising activates for our product to the actual and potential customers.

10.3 Customer service–

For some particular customer who will order a reasonable quantity for our product, we will give them minimum price discount. And we will maintain appropriate delivery schedule for our customer. To satisfy customer Pricing is an important component of any marketing strategy, and always more difficult in the case of a new-to-the-world technology. With nothing on the market to benchmark against, pricing tolerance at various price points was analyzed.

The investigation began with high pricing and tearing down to low pricing. To do this, it was assumed that a particular product (7 ply-60 L/ 40H/ 40W) was offered at $2.85 and that this same product size was offered in the Evince packaging at $2.499. By keeping the ingredient the same, we are able to examine the premium that can be charged based on the new technology. This analysis shows that the consumer is prepared to pay a premium, although pricing structures will have to be developed for each category individually.

10.4 The actual quality of the service performed—

Our product will be better than others in the case of quality, because our product’s raw material will be fully exported from abroad. And by using high quality machineries which also will be export from inroad, we will produce our goods.

We are decided to the Informative advertising in the initial step we because we are going because establish a new business.

Policy of pricing

When setting prices, every company must consider other factors in its external environment. Economic conditions can have a strong impact on the firm’s pricing strategies. In addition, the company’s pricing strategy may affect the nature of the competition it faces. We are always aware of competitors’ prices and offers. We can use them as starting point for our own pricing. Also we have to keep in mind that our price is closer to the competitors’ pricing. Basically, we use price to position its offer relative to the competition. Economic factors such as boom or recession, inflation, and interest rates affect pricing decisions because they affect both the costs of producing a product and consumer perceptions of the product’s price and value. We have also considered what impact its prices will have on other parties in its environment. The government is another important external influence on pricing decisions. Finally, social concerns may have to be taken into account. In setting prices, Evince packaging’s short-term sales, market share, and profit goals may have to be tempered by broader societal considerations. Factors that affect pricing decisions include the nature of the market demand, competition, and other environmental elements. External factor affecting the company’s pricing decisions is competitors’ costs and prices and possible competitor reactions to the company’s own pricing moves.

Whereas costs set the lower limit of prices, the market and demand set the upper limit. Both consumer and industrial buyers balance the price of a product or service against the benefits of owning it. Thus, before setting prices, the marketer must understand the relationship between price and demand for its product. By using a method we will calculate our price. The formulas of calculating price have given in the following:

· By using a formula we calculate how much square meter sheets will be needed for a particular order the formula is:

(Length + wide + 6 all in centimeter) X (wide+ height + 4 all in centimeter) × 2

10000

For example an order of 60 × 40 × 40 cm-7ply, 5 ply, 3 ply.

L W H

(60+40+6) × (40+40+4) × 2

=

10000

106 × 84 × 2

=

10000

= 1.7808 /sq.mt.

Cost, margin for per square meter of different plyes are:

7 ply $1.4

5 ply $ 0.95

3 ply $ 0.54

Selling price of 7, 5, 3, ply for an order of 60 × 40 × 40 cm. are

L W H

7 ply = 1.7808 × $ 1.4 = $ 2.499

5 ply = 1.7808 × $ 0.95 = $ 1.70

3 ply = 1.7808 × $ 0.54 = $ 0.96

Method of selling and Distribution

There are several types of distribution system. One distribution system direct related with producer to final consumer. And the following selling and distribution system will be followed by our ‘’Evince packaging company limited’’

Consumer list:

1. Garments .companies

· All the sales are preferred to be in cash. But there are many big dealers who don’t want to do business with cash terms. We also don’t want to lose these customers. That’s why we sale to them as a credit sale.

Raw materials are main component for any production. The quality of the product depends on the raw materials. If the raw material will be high quality then the product quality will also be good.

So we have to choose best raw material. Our company’s raw materials are given below:

20.0 production method and equipment

The production method of “Evince Packaging Company Limited” includes six steps. The steps are being described below—

Step-1:

Raw materials (paper sheets) are imported from abroad. Plain sheet is doing corrugated with the corrugation machine. For 3 ply size sheet they need three papers, one up and one down and in middle they give a corrugated paper. In this way they can make 5 ply and 7 ply sheets.

Following has given a corrugated machine—

Step-2:

To make the corrugated paper more finished and beautiful we attach two more papers from both sides. And for doing this we add gum to the corrugated papers through gum pasting machine and then just attach the additional papers. This is the best quality gum imported from Taiwan and Korea.

Step-3:

After attaching the sheets are given to the pressure machine. They are pressured by both sides so that the gum keeps the sheets attaching with each other very well.

Step-4:

After pasting, all the sheets are given to the creasing machine to determine the size of the box based on the customer requirement. The size of the box is given to the machine and the machine cuts the paper according to the given size. Such as 60 × 40 × 40 cm — 7 ply.

L W H

If this command is given at the machine, it will cut the papers of this size for 7 ply sheets.

Step-5:

In this step the sheets are given to the slotting machine. The slotting machine cuts the box perfectly to the required size.

Step-6:

In this step the boxes are gone to the stitching machine. In this machine the boxes are attached with stapler or gum or both based on the customer needs.

Step-7:

This is the final step of manufacturing process. In this step if there is something needed to be written or printed on the box. And in this step the printing requirements are printed on the box. Such as- the company name, the product that would be carried on it etc.

So the above 7 steps are our production method steps. After producing the boxes they are been tied up in lots before delivering to the customers. There are 50 boxes in a lot. After being tied up in lots boxes are supplied to the desired customers.
