Comments on the organizational structure :
Layout should be designed intelligently. Though not much needed, but if company feels, a specialist can
be hired temporarily to design the layout. It will certainly save a lot of cost by improving efficiency.
There is no special arrangement to keep an eye on the labor. Many departments are distant from each other
and some supervisors are not enough to keep an efficient with in such scattered production facility.
Cameras should be placed in production facility to keep an eye on the labor. By this, efficiency of labor
definitely increases. It also ensures that labor is using safe work practices.
Safety measures are not up to the mark in production processes. Labor force is not equipped with proper safety
equipments and dresses. This increases the chances of accident, causing increase in cost. Also, it is a
severe violation of labor laws.

Product development is the incubation stage of the product life cycle. There are no sales and the firm

According to management FOL is very small part of their business however retail is big Giant.
FOL strategy is very simple. FOL strategy is to sale the rejected material of factories special
low price articles, dead articles which are not giving sale on the shops and also some A pair
articles which are specially prepared on order from Local venders. I understood from this that
the main purpose of FOL is to help out the company and save from losses which may be

In actual Supply chain is about the planning and distribution of Retail. All stages involved,
directly or indirectly, in fulfilling a customer request. Including the manufacturers, suppliers,
transporters, warehouses, retailers, and customers. Within each company, the supply chain
includes all functions involved in fulfilling a customer request (product development, marketing
operations, distribution, finance, customer service. Customer is an integral part of the supply
chain. Includes movement of products from suppliers to manufacturers to distributors, but also
includes movement of information, funds, and products in both directions.
Probably more accurate to use the term supply network or supply web
Typical supply chain stages: customers, retailers, distributors, manufacturers, suppliers. All
stages may not be present in all supply chains.

Competitive Advantage
Servis has competitive advantage on it product range, its brands name, and Price.

Customer Services
Servis provide Customer Services through give them warranty and guarantee on shoes.

Customer Relationship Management


To develop customer relationship management Servis provide Loyalty cards to their Loyal
customers. Every customer who consumes 1500 RS to purchase some article can become a
loyal customer and can get Loyalty card by filling a form and then after some process company
dispatches the card. Company also sends catalogues on customers addresses. One time
entry on every 500 consumed in the shop. Last year one person won a car who belongs to
from Jhelum then company advertise him through ads photographs and print media. Company
also provide after sale services.

Marketing Strategy
SSC use aggressive marketing and take advantage through give ads on TV channels, different
campaigns and promotional activities so their competitor is so far from them on this side.

Advertising
There is a team who plan that when there is need of advertisement and how to advertise or
running a campaign but there is no advertising agency of Servis so Servis use outsourcing
from different advertising agencies.

SWOT Analysis

Following are the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats which I personally observe
in the company.

Strengths:
Largest footwear group in Pakistan
60 years experience
Old employees
Accessible to all income segments in country.
Geographical coverage
Variety of products
Image of durable shoes
Strong market share in sports and school shoes
Brand name like Cheetah, Don Carlos

Weaknesses:
Female market penetration is weak
Low aspiration value in high income group
Don Carlos communication seems to be static. Need to find ways to build on the strong equity
of the brand.
Weak corporate image of Servis group
Distribution network as compare to Bata is little bit weak.

Internship Report

21

Opportunities:
Penetration in the female segment
Creation of innovation and customized products
Further segmentation within sports segment
Improve shopping experience at retail outlets
Major portion of market untapped

Threats:
Stiff competition in the market from local and foreign brands
Aggressive marketing tactics by other shoe manufacturers.
Different market segments have been targeted by competition.
Unbranded small players competing against different brands of Servis

Conclusion:
Organizations exist when two or more people work towards achieving common goals. An organization
can never be better than the people it hires. Hence we have to get the best to be the best because the
performance of the employees reflects the companys image and standing in the market. Out of the three
Ms i.e. Man, Money & Machine, probably the human dimension is of the utmost importance. Hiring
employees is not the sole objective rather the primary goal is to devise a tool that can help the
organization attract, maintain, retain and motivate them enough to give their best to the organization.
Training and development is therefore the first step towards success. Better the quality of the employees
better the performance of the company. An organizations ability to meet the training and development
challenges provides an opportunity to make significant contribution to the company. With better quality
people executing the companys operations the HR department can create a competitive advantage for
the company. Here in the end I want to sum up my report of internship in Super Asia in few words.
Again I would like to say thanks to Super Asia and it all employees for providing such supportive
environment of learning. I must say that my 6 weeks internship experience in Super Asia was a great
learning time and I believe that it will be very helpful for me in future career. During my internship in

Internship Report

22

Super Asia I had chance to practically use my knowledge and skills which I have gained during my
study as well as I gained and experienced different new skills on the job. It also helped to learn about the
manufacturing sector working in Pakistan, its procedures and products and services. Here in the report I
have tried my best to give very informative and useful details regarding my internship in Super Asia and
I believe that by reading this one would agree.
With me that gaining practical experience of what we learn in books is as important and useful as any
other thing. I was fortunate enough to secure a position as an internee here and thereby able to do an in
depth analysis of the working environment of this company from the inside and of the external
environment.

Recommendation

Servis sales corporations is weak in its competitors analysis, because when FOL or
Retail sets their articles prices they should be aware of competitors prices so I will
recommend that they should also study to their competitor that what are Batas strategy
like which campaign or pricing strategy Bata is going to launch.
MIS system is weak. So there should be such team who operate marketing information
system.
Prices are high of SERVIS articles because now in the market there are China shoes
and local companies, so now there is need to be reduce the prices.
Promotional activities are same which were 10 years ago, like a low quality ball with
every Skooz so there is need to change them in this modern Era.
Rewards and compensations are not satisfying to its employees, so there should be
such rewards and benefits that if employees achieve the targets then they should be
satisfied.
Servis should allow some degree of freedom in its policies and work procedures and
policies according to the environment and conditions of Pakistan without having to ask
for permission every time.

Internship Report

23

In the outlets of Servis there is no availability of all the articles thats why positioning of
Servis in general customer is that there is no development in the shoes or the young
generation thinks that there is no funky shoes which will attract them so Servis should
make positioning in the mind of customer about their developed articles and fleets.
Budget of FOL is not enough, budget should be increase because FOL is targeting low
income people and giving a good business to company.
