Before identifying the Pestle analysis, there is a need to define company, demographic
factors.
In Nestle, the internal employees have direct impact on product quality, dependability and
overall productivity.
1. Company: Nestle is a leading food manufacturer and market leader in coffee and
mineral products as well as baby foods. The company aims to manufacture and
market its products in a special way that creates high value to sustain for a long term.
Milo is a milk beverage produced by Nestle from Australia and is also manufactured
in other countries.
2. Economic factors: In Singapore, Nestle had adjusted to food related issues in different
places and is really price sensitive. The spending of consumer could be controlled
with the range of economic factors such as the level of income, inflation, rates, taxes,
level of unemployment, and other rates.
3. Demographic factors are one of the important changing factors that impact the
operations of the company and also the lifestyle of the company gets impacted. People
are leading to healthier life and the demand of food as well as beverages will not fulfil
one’s requirement so Nestle will not affect much in nutrition.
4. Political analysis: Milo strongly follows and focuses on law that involve legislation
related with health and safety, promotions and advertising standard, customers
protection and Trades description. Nestle Milo signed a memorandum of agreement
6
with Singapore Sports council for youth sports development which created

Micro environmental analysis
1. Competitors: Beverages industry is not very easy and there require high amount of
capital to enter the beverages industry. It is affected by many factors such as
economies of scale, channels of distribution and customer loyalty. The fact is that
there are many players in the industry the big players have broad product lines. Nestle
is not a wise decision unless new competitor paid to the strategy and it is the market
leader in the industry. There are many substitutes available that reduce demands for
the company and there is a tendency to deal with broad range of products. Nestle is
not offering all kinds of foods as well as beverages. The direct competitions faced by
Nestle Singapore are related with their product such as Milo.
7
Direct competitors: The direct competitors are Cadbury Schweppes ltd, Cocoa processing
company, Allied Cocoa products,
Indirect competitors: The indirect competitors are Chocolim, Milo which are not cocoa
products by Nestle. They have to compete with different products which are not cocoa
products and the target market is children, teenagers but not categorized as elders.
Suppliers: There is a medium power of suppliers and it increases the power of supplier and
the bargaining power of supplier depends heavily on the strength of the company’s brand.
Supplier code establishes non-negotiable standards that conduct business with time and the
major barrier to entry for the growth stage is to learn or to experience. Suppliers provide
resources such as labour, material to produce goods as well as services. It adds high value and
deal in quality as well as quantity of materials.
Customers: Food and beverages is a very competitive industry and they attempt to deal with
increase of dominance. Its own attractiveness to attract new comers develops the growing
opportunity and they can also gain benefits in the competition. Since Nestle Milo is dealing in
with the target group of children and young people and not with elders, the consumption is
driven by higher growth in food and beverages industry and the power of buyer of buyer is
not high.
Intermediaries: In case of Nestle Milo, the intermediaries will be the physical distribution
and service agencies. The one who is supplying raw materials for the production of Milo to
Nestle Milo is known as intermediaries.
