Parle To Open Bakery Retail Shop s - Parle Shoppe

Drawn  by  ever increasing rush by investors , businessmen and vc  . Parle products  have  decided to  start  exclusive retail  shops  in line of Haldirams  and  Monginis  bakery retails shops selling  cakes , cookies and other popular bakery products . There seems to immense potential  in  these retail  shop which allows consumers to select bakery product of their choice and to  spend time eating at the same place .Parle might also try  to launch packaged cake and chocolates in coming months  .


A  report

Parle Products, the maker of brands such as Hide & Seek and Monaco, will foray into two new segments of packaged cakes and chocolates in the next quarter. “Parle has plans to launch chocolates and packaged cakes within a month or two,” said a senior company official close to the development.
Distributors of the biscuit maker, which is market leader by volume, told Financial Chronicle that the company’s plan is to diversify its product portfolio in order to cash in on the growing bakery business. Praveen Kulkarnii, general manager - marketing at Parle Products, denied that the company is foraying into the two new segments. “We have no plans to enter cake or chocolates categories,” he said.
Industry officials told FC that Parle has also started its own chain of exclusive retail outlets called ‘Parle Shoppes’.

The outlets are expected to help the company in its first diversification outside the biscuits and confectionery segment. The first such outlet has come up in South Mumbai. Parle’s move to experiment with setting up exclusive outlets aims to replicate the success of Monginis which has exclusive Monginis shops selling cakes, savouries and packaged bakery products. Kulkarnii, however, said the company has no plan to expand its Parle Shoppe network.
The entry into the packaged cakes segment, which is dominated by Monginis and Britannia, is an outcome of the company’s focus on new product introduction to drive growth, according to industry officials. While some of its new products such as Parle Monaco Smart Chips have been a success, others such as Parle wafers and FullToss have been a mixed bag.

The leading players in the chocolate market are Cadburys, Nestle and Amul.
Rivals in the market believe that all players in these segments will benefit when the “pie” increases. Virendra Ghole, GM (marketing and ecommerce) at Monginis Foods, said, “The packaged cake market is driven by distribution. With a mighty distribution set up covering remote parts of India, Parle will be successful in making a large impact on this industry. The market will expand with increased awareness for branded cakes benefiting organised branded firms.

Packaging ideas for bakery products

We would concentrate on types of packaging used to attract consumers or through creative packaging to enhances sales and product s uniqueness from competitors . These includes  biscuit packaging ideas and  cake packaging idea

Flexible packaging ( laminates ,wrappers )

These are the most common method of packaging material used to pack bakery products today . We can recollect that biscuits used to be packed in wax papers.Mainly biscuits and sliced cakes . We can find zig zag fisssures at the end of the packs which helps consumer to tear the pack .Earlier we use to get plain ends where we had to struggle to open the pack . Few manufacturers are providing tear tape at the top of packing which opens like a thread and helps consumer to open a pack to required packet length .Either we find slug packs or Family packs . Good Day , Marie gold , Krack Jack, Parle G

Plain cardboard Boxes

These are used by many manufactures to pack biscuit to differentiate it s product from competitors . These normal paper boxes which are slightly thicker .

Display Boxes

After primary packing done by flexible wrappers these packets are arranged in display boxes manually and then these boxes are shrink wrapped .Consumers can see the products through these transparent films .

Vertical Pouches or Sachet

These have also been experimented by many bakery manufacturers mainly biscuits ,snacky biscuits . Britannia s Little Heart and now Frito Lays Aliva

Tins or Metallic Boxes

These are still popular in masses as it was in earlier days . These can be found for cookies packing which very soft to handle . Hence majority of cookies are packed in Tins . Danish Cookies and Britannia s Pure Magic cookies

Pvc Trays .

Soft cookies or cakes are arranged in these trays to prevent from any damage at with ease to handle and store .Britannia Good day choco chips are packed in pvc trays

Poly bags

Breads are packed in these types of poly bags which are tied through twist n tie bands or stickers .Normal flow wrap packaging is done for Majority of white bread available in market .
Breads by Harvest Gold .

Shrink Wrapped and Over wrapped boxes and trays

Shrink wrapping is done on boxes to give a attractive look to consumers with additional safety to the products . Display boxes can also be shrink wrapped .

Paper Bags

Bread  are normally packed  in poly  bags but for  few artisan bakeries customer prefer more environmental friendly  paper bags . These paper bags could be  plain or can have printed material  on them .Paper normally are used for baguette and convenient in carrying such product .

Zip Pouches

These are  introduced  with  resealable  pouches meant for products  to be carried over to a  distance or to be kept for longer period . These pouches have zip integrated in the pouches so as to open and close it when ever required thus keeping the product crispy and prevents moisture to enter the bag .

Cake Boxes

Cake boxes  have been  used  for   packing Cakes , Pies  and Swiss rolls  etc  ,these are aPET  transparent  with hinged cover and base . Consumer can see the products  through transparent cover 

Tube Packaging

Cylindrical  Tubes of  different height s are used  for  packaging   bakery products  such as cookies , biscuits
