A comparative analysis of Cadbury dairy milk and Cadbury 5 star using the BCG matrix framework

M Manikandan and Sarguna G

This research paper undertakes a comprehensive evaluation of the strategic positioning of two flagship products from Cadbury India—Cadbury Dairy Milk and Cadbury 5 Star—through the analytical framework of the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) Matrix. As a prominent player in the Indian chocolate market, Cadbury has established a strong foothold with its diverse range of confectionery products that appeal to various consumer segments. The BCG Matrix serves as a vital tool for understanding the competitive landscape, assessing each product’s relative market share and market growth rate. By analyzing these dimensions, this study aims to provide insights into investment strategies that can help Cadbury maintain its market leadership while identifying growth opportunities and potential risks for its sub-brands.
The implications of this analysis are significant for Cadbury's strategic decision-making process, particularly in an increasingly competitive environment characterized by evolving consumer preferences and aggressive marketing from rivals. Understanding where to allocate resources is paramount for sustaining market position. This study not only highlights the current strengths and weaknesses of each product but also outlines potential growth opportunities and risks associated with investment strategies. The findings will contribute to Cadbury's broader objectives of enhancing brand equity and optimizing product portfolios, ultimately guiding future marketing and investment decisions for Mondelez International, Cadbury's parent company, in the dynamic Indian FMCG sector.
