SWOT Analysis Strengths     

Engro’s Back PR with farmers Positive response from customers Strong consumer & product research Third-Generation Plant

Weaknesses Olwell Olwell ad which is based on Western life style, ENGRO foods brand management showed a man who put off his clothes & remain just in his undergarments, or half nude lady in a cat walk or men iring the figures of a lady in mix gender health club.

Weaknesses Low Quality Milk

EFL is not having its own dairy farms; it largely collects loose milk from farmers & gwalas through its 40 milk collection centers, which sometimes is of low quality and impure because they add vegetable oil to milk to get higher prices

Weaknesses Milk collection & distribution costs EFL’s 34 out of 40 milk-collection centers are located in Punjab, whereas its only milk processing facility is situated near Sukkhur (Sindh). It increases the milk collection & distribution costs Narrow brand portfolio EFL’s brand portfolio still consists of just 3 products i.e. Olper’s Milk, Olwell Milk and Olper’s Cream. Whereas its competitors like Nestle and Haleeb Foods have a much diversified line of dairy products.

Weaknesses Owning Red Color The company has not owned the color red like Nestle has a green Milkpak; Haleeb has a blue carton etc. This may create problems because when a consumer enters a grocery shop, then he/she might have problems in recalling the brand Packaging EFL is dependent upon Tetra Pak for the packaging of its entire dairy products. Tetra Pak is the only option available to Olper’s for packaging because it is having monopoly in the packaging sector in Pakistan
