Background:
Haleeb Foods is market leader in UHT milk market. Dairy queen has captured significant market potential tapping the lower end of the market. However there is still huge gap in loose milk market and packaged milk market. Our new project of UHT pouch milk shall help convert population into packaged milk. It shall ultimately strengthen and grow brick market as well.
Objective:
To tap the milk consumption segment at lower ends of the market by offering quality product at economy prices through UHT Milk Pouch.
Product Concept:
We use packaged milk for a better quality tea, however it is expensive and restrict our frequent consumption. Now I find Haleeb ABC pouch milk that has same premium quality but offer great savings in my monthly budget. Now I can purchase packaged milk more often and with assurance of Haleeb quality products offering.
Market Size:
Packaged milk consumption is 1.1 M Ltrs in Pakistan and that is only 4% of all milk produced in Pakistan. The packaged milk industry is growing at approximately 20% per annum. Various

Methodology:
The most common method of social science data collection is a survey based on a probability sample. The survey design was, and still is, quite complex to ensure equal probability of selection to ensure that the findings can be generalized to a specified universe. Refers to the entire process of conducting research, reporting how the data was collected under what conditions and so on. Bearing these points in mind we have collected data and techniques and tools which have been employed in the study. Procedure we adopted in the study for the given objective we have conducted a qualitative research in the shape of questionnaire, market visit form from two different markets.
Limitation:
The assumption regarding the willingness of the Peoples (Target Segment) is altogether different as per our perception. They showed much resistance and inability to participate in the interviews.
Universe:
In this research, the first stage that comes after selecting the topic is usually the selection of the universe. The universe of the present is the Lahore Urban and ruler area. In this area we find all types of Consumer and Retailer who used or sells packed milk of fresh milk, another reason of selecting this
Research Project
33
universe is because of its new potential market for packed milk currently only 4% share of packed milk in total milk market.
Selection of Samples:
When Universe is large it is difficult to interview every unit of the universe. In such situation it is better to draw e sample. Sample is any sub group of or sub aggregate drawn by some appropriate method from a population. A qualitative research exercise like questionnaire survey requires very careful selection of the group participants, as the people who fill the questionnaire represent a very large population segment in term of their options, perceptions, attitudes, believes, ideas, likes dislikes, etc. Its is , therefore , essential that the group participants are recruited from amongst the population segment that they represent. To archive objective, we have tried to select most suitable segment of population that is prepared in the light of the selection criteria for the study .Each respondent fulfilling the selection criteria was invited formally to fulfill the questionnaire on the specified time For this study we categories two types Urban Ruler Sample of 50 respondents (owner of Tea stall, hotels, and teashops) at Multan Road both sides, Rewind Road has drawn by simple Random Sampling, and 50 key outlets of Lahore city for availability survey of packed milk.

Survey Method
Surveys are now being used in all areas of life. Business, consumer, activist, groups, politicians advertiser use them in their everyday decision making process. Some firms such as Gallup and Harries regularly conduct a public opinion survey on a full time basis. Survey has certain well-defined advantages. They can be used to investigate problems in realistic settings. Newspapers reading, Television viewing and consumer behavior patterns can be examined where they happen rather in laboratory screening under artificial conditions. The cost of survey is reasonable considering amount of information gather. In addition, researchers can control expenses by selecting four major types of Surveys. Mail, Telephone, personal, Interview and Group administration. Another advantage is the large amount of data can b collected with relative easy from a variety of people. The survey technique allow researcher to examined many variables, demographic and Lifestyle, attitudes, motives, intentions and so on to use multivariate statistics to analyze the data, also geographic do not limit most surveys. Already existing data can b helpful to survey research.
