Maggi Comes to India – teething troubles Maggi noodles was launched in India in theearly1980s. Carlo M. Donati, the present Chairman and Managing Director of Nestle India Ltd, brought the instant noodle brand to India during his short stint here in the early eighties. At that time, there was no direct competition. The first competition came from the ready-to-eat snack segment which included snacks like samosas, biscuits or maybe peanuts, that were usually ‘the bought out’ type. The second competition came from the home made snacks like pakodas or sandwiches. So there were no specific buy and make snack! Moreover both competitors had certain drawbacks in comparison. Snacks like samosas are usually bought out, and outside food is generally considered unhygienic and unhealthy. The other competitor, ‘homemade’ snacks overcame both these problems but had the disadvantage of extended preparation time at home. Maggi was positioned as the only hygienic homemade snack!

Nestle had positioned Maggi as a convenience food product aimed at the target group of working women who hardly found any time for cooking. Unfortunately this could not hold the product for very long. In the course of many market researches and surveys, the firm found that children were the biggest consumers of Maggi noodles. Quickly they repositioned it towards the kids segment with various tools of sales promotion like colour pencils, sketchpens, fun books, Maggi clubs which worked wonders for the…

Maggi as a brand is globally known in the product category of bouillon or soup cubes. Nestle decided to introduce Maggi brand in India in the same product category. This soup was initially test marketed in 1974 in Kerala. The response was not encouraging. Having then realized that the dietary habits of Keralites are not conductive to the idea of drinking soup, test marketing of the brand extended to Goa with the idea that Goan food habits have some similarity with western habits. Fortunately for the company, the test turned out to be positive and Maggi became an accepted brand in India.…
