Over the centuries Pakistani experts have acquired and developed unique strains of exotic fruit varieties, unmatched for their rich flavor and taste Shezan International Limited was conceived as a joint venture by the Shahnawaz Group of Pakistan and Alliance Industrial Development Corporation of U.S.A in1964. The agriculture background of the Pakistani sponsors induced them to establish this agrobased industry. Taking advantages of abundance of fruits available in Pakistan, and the advanced technology provided by the American partners, Shezan became pioneers in the field of converting fruits into pulps, concentrates and juices. Today Shezan is the largest food processing unit having developed and installed the capacity to meet the countrys and export needs. In 1971 the Shahnawaz Group purchased all the shares of Alliance Industrial Development Corporation with the permission of the Pakistan Government. The Company has since shown sustained growth in both the domestic and exports fields. The Company has been steadily expanding its production capacity over the years. In 1980-81 a separate unit was installed in Karachi which now caters for Karachi, Sindh and export demand. A new bottle filling plant was set up in1983 in Lahore unit increased the capacity five-fold.

Fruit juice production procedures involved in fruit juice manufacturing.

Fruit Juice - Production Process Flow


Production of fruit juices is a standardized process and type of technology depends on type of fruits and scale of operations. Initial preparatory processes for all fruits will be similar, as will be the last stages of juice/pasteurization section and packaging, although differences in handling juice composition arise in certain cases due to the nature of the fruit and percentage of pulp involved.

Basically, preparation process of Twist juices involves the following steps:-

Washing and cutting of fruits Boiling of fruit pulp I) Pulp Storage in Tank II) Sugar Hopper Pulp and ingredients mixing Syrup Storage in Tank Juice Preparation

Fruit Juice Production Process After washing and cutting the fruit pulp is separated after that Pulp is shifted to the boiler where it is cooked and shifted to the plate heat exchanger. Pulp is then stored in the pulp storage tank. Pulp is then supplied to the mixing tank in the desired quantity while in mixing tanks; any additives to the pulp are made at this stage before it is pumped to syrup storage tanks. Blended juice is then pumped through pasteurizer; where it is heated to 90oC to inactivate enzymes and living organism. After pasteurization the juice passes through final filtration, before loading it into a juice storage tank. Juice from the tank is ready for packaging

Conclusion
According to our group mates after visiting the company and taking information from the market we have concluded that: They are going good but have to improve internal environment They have to improve their distributor sector.
xl

They have to make new strategy for the competitors like Nestle They have large capital , so they have to spend more money in the advertising field

They have to introduce New flavor In the market They can introduced these twist juices in 1 Liter packing They can introduce these juices also in powder form.

Recommendations
As we have mentioned that Shezan needs to improve its distribution strategy. Shezan is targeting youngsters as a potential and big market for its twist juice so if company supply directly to the schools, colleges and universities it removes intermediaries and due to high profit ratio caf owners will promote Twist compared to other juices.

Company Owned Distribution House

Schools Colleges Universities

Another important recommendation we want to give is this that Shezan need to come up with a different kind of packing. Juice packing with straw is not convenient for consumer as sometimes juice fell when we insert straw and sometimes some juice still remain in the pack that cannot come up with the straw. To resolve this issue Shezan must introduce packing with cap on it in spite of using straw. Quantity should be increased to 300ml and price should be Rs. 20/-
