Gherkins are referred as a small cucumber, which are edible fruits and are preferred in the
pickled form. lthough, many vegetables including beetroot, cabbage, and pepper are sold in the
pickle form, gherkins are the leading exporter of the world Gherkins are available in different
seasonings and sizes and reflect the variations in taste of European consumers. The German
"Gurken", for example, are larger in size than the "cornichons" available in France and are also
marketed in slices. The seasoning is "sweet-and-sour", whereas the gherkins sold in France
usually do not contain any added sugar and are sold whole. There are six different sizes of
gherkins available on the market, with the smaller sizes mostly available through retail outlets
and the larger used in the food industry and the catering sector.
Gherkin is a cucurbitaceous vegetable crop of 90 days duration, which is harvested raw
for pickling. The product has negligible domestic market and the cultivation is exclusively for
exports. The preserved pickled fruits are used in the preparations like sandwiches, pizzas, etc.
Major destinations for its exports are Europe, US, Russia, ustralia and few other countries.
The crop was introduced to ndia only in 1990 as the crop can be cultivated round ht e year unlike
other major producing countries like Mexico, Hungary and Madagascar, where it can be
cultivated only for three months in a year. Further, Gherkin s a labour-intensive crop, and,
hence, the cost of cultivation is lower in labour surplus country like ndia compared to Europe
and merica. engaged in marketing of gherkin abroad prefer to procure the produce from ndia.
The Export-Oriented Units (EOUs) engaged in Gherkin exports procure the produce from
farmers, who grow the crop under contract farming arrangements. fter grading, sorting and
washing the fruits, it is preserved in appropriate media like cetic cid, vinegar or Brine
Solution for bulk exports in large jars and bottled as pickles by the importing country or directly
processed as pickles and bottled in ndi itself for exports. The media used for preservation and
other ingredients in the bottled pickles depend on the customer's choice and at times are provided
by the importers from abroad. The crop is popularly known as 'pickling cucumber' or 'small
cucumber' among the farmers.
There are 22 EOUs under Gherkin in Karnataka, mostly located in Bangalore except two
in Hassan and one at Chintamani in Kolar district. Most of the units, except two, had been
exporting Gherkin in bulk until recently. t was reported by the respondent units that with the

increase in wages in the European Union member countries, the importers prefer bottled exports
and, therefore, now more and more units are establishing bottling units for exports. The total
capital invested by the Gherkin units in the State work out to Rs.126.64 crore with an installed
capacity of 1.78 lakh tonnes per annum. pproximately, 41,600 farmers are cultivating Gherkin
in the State in an area of 39,178 acres. The volume of exports during 2009-10 was 70,239 tonnes
in bulk and 2,11,40,994 jars which would work out to another 6342 For this reason, industries

Global demand for Gherkin is estimated at around 20 lakh tonnes and the supply from
ndia works out hardly to 4 per cent of the demand. The problem with the ndian Gherkin
ndustry is the low yield. While well managed gardens are getting a yield of 7 to 8 tonnes per
acre, overall average is reported to be only 2.5 tonnes per acre as against a potential yield of 20
tonnes per acre. The focus of the gherkin industry is, therefore, on increasing the yield by past
and disease management and improving the irrigation facilities. f the average yield is enhanced
to 5 tonnes per acre, the production from the existing area could reach nearly 2 lakh
tonnes,supplying around 15 per cent of the global demand.
The Government of ndia (Go) in 2001-02 started establishing gri-Export Zones

(EZs) in various States with the objective of increasing ndia's share in Global gri-Trade.
EZs are meant to facilitate the development and sourcing of raw material (agri-produce) in a
contiguous area for exports through its processing/packaging. n Karnataka, 4 crops have been
identified for promotion under the EZs, Viz. Gherkin, Rose Onion, Flowers and Vanilla.
mong these crops, contract farming is prevalent and established in respect of Export-Oriented
Units (EOUs) in Gherkin-processing. EOUs have two types of contract arrangements. n the first
model, a team of field workers visit the villages and explain to the farmers about Gherkin for the
cultivation of which various inputs and services are offered by the EOU. They also explain the
responsibilities of the farmers. Once the farmer consents to grow Gherkin on behalf of the EOU,
a bipartite agreement is entered into between the company and the farmers. The EOUs provide
identity card and a pass book to the farmer to record the supply of inputs, application of
pesticides and fertilisers, quantities of produce procured, etc."Facilitators" are entrusted to
procure bulk of gherkin instead of contracting with the individual farmers. The "Facilitators"
agree to supply a definite quantum of Gherkin in a season and take the responsibility of
supplying inputs like seeds, pesticides and fertilisers to the farmers. They act as an intermediary
between the EOU and farmers.
With a view to encouraging banks in financing the EOUs in EZs, a very flexible
approach is adopted and investment credit is made available for processors / exporters. n order
to give a fillip to the implementation of the programme, BR has taken initiatives like
fixation of scale of finance for crops covered under EZ, preparation of Banking Plans, 100 per
cent refinance on bank loans, bringing out booklets for the use of all the agencies, organising
workshops at the State and istrict Levels to review the progress, etc. Why Switzerland?
Because the first foreign company to deal with importing gherkins for pickling from Karnataka

ANGAOc Y YY

c
(and also ndia) was Reitzel, a food products multinational with several global branches. Reitzel
first bought raw produce from Global Green of the Thapar group, but now also have their own
processing factory. There are over 40 ndian and foreign exporting firms in Karnataka, their main
markets being the US, Russia, France, Germany, ustralia, Spain and South Korea.
Export of value-added gherkins (baby cucumber) which is a complete breakfast dish in

the US, Europe and ustralia, from ndia has provided a silver lining to the dark clouds
looming on the ndian agriculture scenario with the lifting of quantitative restrictions by the
World Trade Organization.
Gherkin exports, which had crossed Rs 140 crore, had already made 12 farmers in the
country µlakhpatis¶ in Karnataka and ndhra Pradesh. ndia is becoming a large sourcing centre
for gherkins for mora maille of the Unilever Best Foods, Europe Groups. From a mere 1,000
tonnes three years ago, the company¶s gherkin imports increased to 5,000 tonnes last year and
controlled 50 per cent of the market of gherkins and food dressings. City-based Global Green
Company, part of the $ 2 billion Thapar group, is the single largest exporter to mora. Gherkin
exports last financial year touched 10,000 tonnes accounting for 20 per cent of the total ndian
exports. Having recently bagged an order for supply of one million jars of gherkins to a major
German food retailer, Global Green disbursed Rs 3.25 crore to 5,000 small and marginal growers
in ndhra Pradesh and Karnataka during the first three months of this calendar year.Rising
incomes and urbanization, an expanding domestic consumer base concerned about food quality
and safety, and rapidly growing agricultural exports have been important drivers for the increased
attention to food safety in ndia. But the development of effective food safety systems is
hampered by a number of factors, including: restrictive government marketing regulations, weak
policy and regulatory framework for food safety, inadequate enforcement of existing standards, a
multiplicity of government agencies involved, weak market infrastructure and agricultural
support services. The small farm structure further limits farmer capacity to meet increasing
domestic and export food safety and SPS requirements.
ddressing food safety concerns in ndia will require adoption of appropriate legislation,
strengthening capacity to enforce rules, promoting adoption of good agricultural, manufacturing
and hygiene practices, greater collective action, and some targeted investments. mplementing
these actions will require joint efforts by the government and the private sector.

Reitzel ndia Private Limited a multinational company known for its specialization in
pickled vegetables is now embarking on a global pathway to enter Russia and US. The
companies will exports gherkin pickles. The factory, which is HCCP, BRC & FS, certified
and is situated in KB industrial area in Kunigal in Tumkur and is spread over 11acres.
The Switzerland-based Reitzel was started in 1909 and set up independent operations in
France, Turkey and ndia (2005). The company's Hugo Reitzel brand is for the hotel and catering
sector. t also specializes in dressing based on mustards and vinegars. t also has a range of
ketchup and mayonnaise, salad dressings and fresh sauces (hot & cold).
ll products are widely distributed across retail outlets globally and it undertakes orders
for private labels. Karnataka was opted for its manufacturing plant going by the potential of
gherkins that are popular globally. Since 1992-93, gherkins were dispatched in semi-processed
conditions to its unit in Switzerland. n order to capitalize on the local condition, the M C
decided to set-base in Karnataka where gherkins could be packaged for export directly from here.
The capacity of the unit is 30,000 tones, but they now produce around 15,000 tones. By 2013
they will go full steam. More than 5,000 farmers are associated with Reitzel under the contract
farming initiative. Gherkins are cultivated in Tumkur, Hassan, Bidar, Rannebennur, avangere
and some parts of Tamil adu and ndhra Pradesh.
n order to maintain quality and guarantee the safety of its supplies the company has
introduced a rigorous follow-up and verification policy for its raw material - from selection of
seeds to production areas to packaging in the factories they ensure good agricultural practices is
maintained. n investment of 20-25 crore was pumped in for the Kunigal facility, which is a cent
percent, export oriented unit having four lines. n ndia, Reitzel is ranked third after Global
Greens and nter Garden. However, it holds a leadership status in Switzerland and France. There
is a huge competition in the gherkins sector but quality is the lone drivingFactor. The shelf life
of the gherkins in jar is three years, while for can is two years and in bulk is 18 months.While
export is their only focus, the company is also keen on tapping domestic consumption and by
2013.Besides gherkins; the company also offers pickled chillies, cherry tomatoes and onions. The

trends are for value-added products. Packaging is also a major attraction, which includes eye-

The 7-s Framework of Mc Kinsey is a management model that describes 7 factors to
organize a company in a holistic and effective way. Together these factors determine the way in
which a company operates. Managers should take into account all 7 of these factors, to be sure of
successful implementation of a strategy.
The 7-s framework was first mentioned in the ³rt of Japanese Management´ by Richard
Pascal and nthony thos in 1981. They have been investigating how Japanese industries had
been so successful. t around the same time Tom Peters and Robert Waterman were exploring
the success of Japanese companies. The seven S model was born at the meeting of these four
authors in 1978. t appeared also in ³Search of Excellence´ by Peters and Waterman, and was
taken up as a basic tool by the global management consultancy company Mc Kinsey. Since then
it is known as their 7-S model.

organization. The 7-s diagram illustrates the multiplicity interconnectedness of elements that
define an organizational ability to change. , it says that it is neither just a matter of devising a
new strategy and following it though, nor it is a matter of setting up new systems and letting

My overall experience in the company was very pleasant. The response and support got
from the management and staff was appreciable. would like to mention the name of MR.RV
KULL. M sir and who guided me in this project and who helped me in the courseof my in
plant training. The atmosphere and working condition were encouraging in the company.
n plant training in the company helped me to know the practicalities. learned about
management from the practical prospective and learned about organization as to how it works
in management aspects and the policies and procedures. Totally it was a highly useful training for
me in the company. This has added value in my academic learning.
To conclude this project has given me practical exposure in the studyof organization. t
was a dream come true to me who always wanted to work in the industries which is my area of
interest and it was a great experience working where learnt many things about the functioning
of an organization in accordance with the present market trends. The main purpose of the
organization study is to make the students acquainted with the practical knowledge about the
overall functioning of the organization. t givens opportunity to study the human behavior and
also makes one ready to face different situations, which normally would come across while on
work in the office or factory environment.
uring the first week, it was totally a new experience entering into the organization. On
the first day of the training , Personnel officer (HR) detailed us very clearly about the
guidelines to be followed with respect to maintaining the discipline of the organization.
fter the initial session, they were taken to different departments and it was great
interaction with the various departmental heads and came to know the real situation, duties,

responsibilities and functions of the departments. Each department has separate Manager, eputy
Manager, Purchase Officer, ssistant Officer and Supervisor. t was really a fruitful and great
experience while working in the organization. Employee from every corner of the department
helped me in getting the required information for the successful completion of this project. They
cooperated well when we had to disturb them with so many queries in our mind tobe cleared
from the concerned during the visits to the respective departments.
S F AcNNG:
While studying SWOT analysis of the competitors and the company, realized that, the
SWOT as a tool really benefits managers to take day to day decisions and give strategic
dimension to it keeping in mind of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of each of
these companies.
The 7S framework gave a sort of birds eye view into strategy, structure, skill set, style,
system, staff and shared values. also realized the importance of shared values as it determines
the very culture of organization.
To some up experience in Reitzel ndia Pvt Ltd was fabulous and wonderful learning

excellence,
