The company believes the key to its success is Lovello’s Six Principles of Quality, Liability, Mutuality, Moderniza�on, Commitment
and Freedom.
• Quality:
The consumers are the boss of our company and we will not compromise on our standards. Lovello’s Quality Policy creates a
shared pla�orm for quality standards in both the Pharmaceu�cal and Diagnos�cs businesses. Consumers recognize and
appreciate our commitment to quality. Quality is a common interest and an important factor in our success – one that
guarantees sa�sfied customers. Lovello’s quality policy is a commitment to our customers and other interest groups.
• Liability:
All our coworkers take liability for results and exercise scheme and verdict while making decisions. As part of our commitment
to the industry, our management team in the mean�me met with congressional leaders to discuss our responsibility in leading
important industry issues as part of the Annual General Mee�ng.
• Mutuality:
We believe the standard by which our business rela�onships should be measured is the degree to which mutual benefits are
created. We assemble strong partnerships with our suppliers, customers, consumers and acquaintances. Persistently we look
for ways to improve effec�veness and efficiency, and to reduce waste. We are proud to say that our manufacturing facility is
now 100% pure and fresh. We use problem solving as a way to iden�fy opportuni�es for improvement and focus resources
where needed.
• Moderniza�on:
Growth of ice-cream produc�on for different weather is no longer urged nowadays. So moderniza�on and innova�on are the
brotherly facts inscribed at the heart of Lovello. To keep the markets stocked, Lovello is stepping up and able to expand sales
of its ice cream across the country. LOVELLO becoming the most demanding ice cream in the market, it has taken ini�a�ves in
increasing its distribu�on and logis�cs capabili�es in line with its strategies through sincere innova�on. We do not mislead our
customers about our products and the customers, we do believe, have no complaints against our delectable products.
• Commitment:
Stern commitment is making Lovello successful over �me. We never deviate to earn the trust of our employees, consumers,
customers, suppliers, shareholders and wider society. This depends on us ac�ng with integrity at all �mes and upholding our
commitments. Trust in our company, products, services and brands can only be built consistently step by step. This is why we
take decisions with a long-term view, while ensuring we meet our commitments today. Our commitment is to never
compromise on the safety of any product.
• Freedom:
To shape our future, Lovello believes in freedom and as one of the world’s largest family-owned corpora�ons, this
independence enables our company to achieve growth and prosperity. Lovello is dreaming of building a business based on the
philosophy of a “mutual benefits” for all stakeholders and this vision helps us con�nuously improve our management systems
to guarantee product quality and safety aiming for zero defects. Lovello teams put the principles in ac�on every day, making
a difference for people and the planet through our performance.
ETHICAL
PRINCIPLES
In an era where ethical considera�ons have transcended being merely desirable to becoming a fundamental pillar of business
opera�ons, Lovello Ice Cream reaffirms its stanch commitment to uphold and promote ethical philosophy. At Lovello, we proudly
adhere to the highest standards of corporate conduct, unwaveringly complying with all relevant an�trust, compe��on, and fair
dealing laws. We persistently reject any engagement in an�compe��ve prac�ces and work systema�cally to ensure that our
business prac�ces are aligned with the principles of fair compe��on. As we endeavor to cra� our annual report, we take this
opportunity to shed light on the ethical founda�ons that guide our ac�ons and define our corporate character.
Our Core Ethical Philosophy
Integrity forms the bedrock of our ethical framework. We are commi�ed to conduc�ng our business with the utmost honesty,
fairness, and transparency. Our stakeholders can trust us to always adhere to the highest ethical standards in every facet of our
opera�ons. Integrity is the cornerstone of our business conduct. We demand absolute honesty and ethical behavior from all
employees. We believe that integrity is not merely an op�on; it is an essen�al component of our character. In a landscape where
shortcuts may beckon and compromise may seem temp�ng, Lovello remains resolute in its unwavering dedica�on to the
principles of integrity. We hold ourselves to the highest ethical standard, not because it is convenient, but because it is the right
thing to do. In this commitment, we find our strength, our iden�ty, and the assurance that our every ac�on is rooted in the
bedrock of integrity.
2. Customer-Centric Approach
At Lovello, we view ethical business prac�ces as synonymous with a customer-centric approach. We priori�ze the sa�sfac�on and
well-being of our customers, ensuring that our products meet the highest standards of quality and safety. This commitment
extends to providing transparent and accurate product informa�on.
3. Environmental Stewardship
Our environmental responsibility is not just a corporate obliga�on; it's a moral impera�ve. We take proac�ve measures to
minimize our ecological footprint, from sustainable sourcing of ingredients to energy-efficient produc�on processes. Lovello is
dedicated to contribu�ng posi�vely to the environment we all share.
4. Social Responsibility
Our commitment to ethical principles extends to the communi�es we serve. We ac�vely engage in philanthropic ini�a�ves and
support local causes that align with our values. By fostering posi�ve social change, we aim to leave a las�ng, posi�ve impact on
society.
Our workforce is the heartbeat of our organiza�on, and we pledge to treat all employees with dignity and respect. Fair
compensa�on, equal opportuni�es, and safe working condi�ons are non-nego�able elements of our ethical labor prac�ces.
1. Compliance with Laws: Lovello holds steadfast to its duty of upholding the law. We insist upon strict compliance with all
applicable laws and regula�ons, ensuring that our opera�ons remain well within the bounds of legal and ethical standards.
3. Bribery and Corrup�on: Lovello unequivocally prohibits all forms of bribery and corrup�on. We extend this prohibi�on not only
to our employees but also to our service providers and agents, leaving no room for any conduct that could even remotely suggest
or appear to be associated with such illicit ac�vi�es.
Our Code of Business Conduct is not merely a document; it is a living testament to our dedica�on to building trust and credibility
within our organiza�on. We are commi�ed to cul�va�ng a culture of open and honest communica�on, both internally among our
employees and externally with our valued clients. This code reflects our unwavering resolve to uphold the highest standards of
ethics and integrity, se�ng the gold standard for how we conduct business at Lovello.
As we reflect on the past year, Lovello Ice Cream takes pride in the ethical founda�on upon which our success is built. We remain
dedicated to fostering a corporate culture that not only embraces these ethical principles but also seeks to con�nually improve
upon them. Our commitment to ethics is not a sta�c declara�on; it is a dynamic, ongoing journey towards excellence and
responsible corporate ci�zenship.

• Liquidity Risk: The risk stemming from illiquid assets or liabili�es is something we mi�gate through vigilant cash flow
management, op�miza�on of working capital, and the maintenance of unused financing facili�es. These measures provide us
with the flexibility to meet future con�ngencies seamlessly.
• Price Fluctua�on Risk: We ac�vely manage this risk through diligent risk management procedures, where costs and benefits
of hedging are carefully evaluated to ensure efficient resource alloca�on in our ice cream produc�on.
• Credit Risk: To mi�gate credit risk, we diligently assess the creditworthiness of our clients and maintain personal security
agreements with dealers, thus ensuring control and risk mi�ga�on. In summary, our approach to mi�ga�ng credit risk is
characterized by a combina�on of rigorous creditworthiness assessments, the implementa�on of personal security
agreements, and a vigilant approach to control and risk mi�ga�on. These mul�faceted measures collec�vely bolster our
financial stability and underscore our commitment to responsible and sustainable business prac�ces.
• Risk in Second Hand or Recondi�oned Machinery: Recognizing the poten�al impact on profitability, we have procured
primary capital machinery from reputable sources, thereby minimizing the risk of obsolescence and maintenance issues.
• Adverse Effect on Future Cash Flow: We an�cipate future cash flow requirements by planning for loan interest obliga�ons and
thereby ensure a con�nuous and uninterrupted flow of funds. We adopt a forward-thinking approach by me�culously
forecas�ng and preparing for future cash flow needs, especially in terms of mee�ng our loan interest obliga�ons. This prudent
financial strategy not only guarantees the unimpeded flow of funds but also reinforces our financial resilience, ensuring we
navigate poten�al challenges with confidence and stability.
• Financial Weakness Risk: Our consistent sales growth and profitability bolster our resilience against financial weakness risk,
ensuring our ability to meet loan obliga�ons and sustain future growth.
• Investment Risk: The upward course of our profit margins over the years posi�ons us as an a�rac�ve investment op�on,
offering a compelling alterna�ve to other investment avenues. Our resilience, sustained profitability, and firm dedica�on to
delivering quality make Lovello an appealing investment choice. We stand as a testament to our industry, offering an
investment opportunity that is not only profitable but also synonymous with enduring excellence and value crea�on.
• Interest Rate Risk: Interest rate risk, an external factor of concern, arises from the prospect of unfavorable fluctua�ons in
interest rates. These fluctua�ons can be triggered by shi�s in government monetary policies and heightened demand for loans
and investments, o�en resul�ng in elevated interest rates. Typically, companies with floa�ng rate loans are most suscep�ble to
the impact of such rate hikes. However, it's noteworthy that our company has astutely opted for fixed interest rate loans from
banks. This strategic choice has enabled us to maintain a consistent track record of �mely loan repayment. By adhering to this
prudent financial approach, we have effec�vely mi�gated the poten�al adverse effects of interest rate fluctua�ons, thereby
safeguarding our financial stability.
• Industry Risk: With growing market demand for ice cream in Bangladesh, compe��ve forces remain harmonious, elimina�ng
any undue threat of price wars or dras�c price reduc�ons.
The ice cream industry in Bangladesh is thriving with an established market size of Tk. 2000.00 crore. However, this market is
primarily dominated by five exis�ng companies, accoun�ng for Tk. 1200.00 crore of this industry. This leaves a substan�al gap of
approximately Tk. 800.00 crore in the market, signaling significant untapped poten�al.
Furthermore, the demand for ice cream in Bangladesh is on a steady rise, with a growth rate of 20% annually. Remarkably, the
current industry landscape is characterized by healthy compe��on, both from local and foreign en��es. Despite this, no
organiza�on is inclined to engage in aggressive price reduc�ons; as such a strategy could jeopardize their survival.
Several factors contribute to the gradual growth of the ice cream industry in Bangladesh:
Favorable Weather: The clima�c condi�ons in Bangladesh are conducive to year-round ice cream consump�on.
Skilled Workforce: The availability of skilled human resources within the ice cream industry ensures high-quality produc�on.
Increasing Popularity: Ice cream con�nues to gain popularity across all age groups, further fueling the industry's growth.
In essence, the ice cream market in Bangladesh presents a promising landscape with untapped poten�al, driven by increasing
demand and favorable market dynamics.
• Tech Risk: We proac�vely adapt to technological advancements within the ice cream industry, regularly maintaining and
upgrading equipment to ensure opera�onal efficiency.
• Market Risk: The burgeoning popularity of ice cream in our country and our expansive product range minimize market risk,
while prudent brand management for�fies our customer base.
Lovello remains fana�cal to preserve and augment its brand value, cul�va�ng resilience, fostering emo�onal connec�ons with
stakeholders, and upholding industry, regulatory, and general standards of significance. Our commitment to excellence is un�ring,
ensuring that we navigate the complex terrain of risks with unwavering poise and purpose.
VALUE GENERATION
AND SUSTAINABLE LONGEVITY
Our unwavering dedica�on to generate value is deeply rooted in our ability to seize opportuni�es emerging from ever-changing
environmental and social dynamics. We are resolute in our commitment to harness the resources of our company to both shore
up profitability and, in parallel, contribute meaningfully to society, all while championing sustainability as a founda�onal principle.
In today's fiercely compe��ve market, neglec�ng to provide substan�al value to our customers can lead to a precarious decline.
Therefore, it is impera�ve that businesses reimagine their strategies for value crea�on, expanding their horizons and innova�ng
to flourish in the unpredictable and ever-evolving landscape of tomorrow. In this realm where sustainability and profitability
seamlessly intertwine, it is not only a ma�er of prudence but also a fiduciary obliga�on for enterprises to address the impending
challenges posed by climate change.
Our three elementary pillars for enduring value crea�on are Focus and Brand Percep�on, Environment, and High-Quality Employ-
ment Prac�ces.
Consumers exhibit an inclina�on to patronize brands that align with their own values and principles. Hence, our concerted focus
rests on brands that ac�vely contribute to the community or champion noteworthy causes, thereby forging a profound connec-
�on with our target audience. Our ul�mate goal is to cul�vate brand value and brand equity. Brand equity encompasses the extra
value a company garners from products bearing a recognizable name, as opposed to their generic counterparts. Our aspira�on is
to nurture a robust brand equity, wherein our customers, when confronted with purchasing choices, feel emboldened and
gra�fied in selec�ng the LOVELLO brand. Consequently, we posit that customers influenced by products boas�ng elevated brand
equity are more inclined to opt for them, even if they command a premium over generic alterna�ves.
ENVIRONMENT
Within the purview of our business opera�ons, value crea�on intrinsically melds with sustainability. In this context, the environ-
ment plays a pivotal role in our value proposi�on by responding proac�vely to energy challenges and impera�ves.
By reframing water investments as catalysts for business growth, we aim to galvanize greater private sector engagement in
addressing water-related challenges. Notably, LOVELLO boasts an efficient Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP), opera�ng under the
auspices of Vietnam Technology. This bio-chemical marvel, with a capacity of 10,000 liters per hour, is purposefully designed to
uphold ecological equilibrium and foster overall environmental ameliora�on. It merits men�on that the Department of Environ-
ment (DOE) of the Bangladesh Government conducts thrice-annual visits to our ETP. Following rigorous assessments of processes
and discharged water quality, DOE bestows an Environmental Clearance Cer�ficate (ECC) upon us. Our commitment to chemical
management transcends regulatory compliance and poten�al fines; it embodies our solemn duty to safeguard our planet and its
finite resources from both immediate and long-term chemical hazards. It underscores the impera�ve of prudent control and
management of risks associated with chemical usage, storage, and disposal.
Energy Preserva�on:
Energy efficiency cons�tutes a paramount concern for our company, given the energy-intensive nature of our ice cream produc-
�on process. While ice cream is inherently invigora�ng, the blending of ingredients like milk, dairy chocolate, sugar, and vanilla
beans necessitates substan�al energy input. Electricity and compressed air serve as linchpins in the thermal and kine�c processes
spanning mixing, extrusion, deep-freezing, dipping in various chocolate coa�ngs, and final packaging. Thus, energy efficiency
assumes paramount importance within LOVELLO. In this context, the Energy Savings Scheme (ESS) assumes pivotal significance.
ESS extends financial incen�ves to New South Wales businesses that invest in energy reduc�on projects, either through new
equipment installa�ons or system modifica�ons.
Waste management encompasses a spectrum of ac�vi�es and measures indispensable for responsible waste handling, from
incep�on to ul�mate disposal. This holis�c approach encompasses waste collec�on, transporta�on, treatment, and disposal,
alongside robust monitoring and regulatory oversight. Its overarching objec�ve is to deliver hygienic, efficient, and cost-effec�ve
This category encompasses a wide array of materials varying in environmental toxicity, including paper, packaging materials, food
processing waste, oils, solvents, resins, paints, sludge, glass, ceramics, metals, plas�cs, rubber, wood, cloth, straw, and abrasives,
among others. The absence of a regularly updated and systema�c database on industrial solid waste precludes precise quan�fica-
�on of genera�on rates.
Agricultural Waste:
The expansion of agricultural produc�on has yielded increased quan��es of livestock waste, agricultural crop residues, and
agro-industrial byproducts. Prudent waste management in the agricultural sector can significantly augment farm opera�ons by
promo�ng a healthy environment for livestock and reducing reliance on commercial fer�lizers while enriching crop nutrient
profiles.
Taufika Foods and Lovello Ice-cream PLC has garnered acclaim for upholding superla�ve employment prac�ces. Our recruitment
methodology exemplifies meritocracy, ensuring equal opportuni�es for all recruited employees, regardless of their background.
Our remunera�on policy is designed with astute discernment, encompassing salary reviews, fes�val bonuses, performance
incen�ves, and the punctual disbursement of salaries. In essence, we espouse a fair and equitable wage framework. Our
workplace environment stands out as unbeatable within the industry, providing a pla�orm for our highly talented cohorts to
showcase their abili�es. We foster a culture of posi�vity, encapsulated in our construc�ve working environment. Moreover, we
conduct comprehensive internal training programs on a departmental basis, firmly believing that trained employees surpass
meritorious students in suitability.
In conclusion, LOVELLO extends gra�tude to our collabora�ve partners for affording us the invaluable opportunity to glean
insights from their strategic delibera�ons. These encounters have enriched our understanding of naviga�ng the dynamic interplay
between disrup�on and linear thinking, balancing societal demands against shareholder expecta�ons, and discerning the
determinants of success and failure.

REPORT FROM
DIRECTOR
Dear Esteemed Shareholders,
I extend my hear�elt gree�ngs to each one of you, brimming with enthusiasm and gra�tude, as I, in the dis�nguished capacity of
the representa�ve of the Board of Directors and Management, present before you the me�culously cra�ed Directors’ Report. This
comprehensive document, scrupulously curated with the utmost care and dedica�on, stands testament to our unwavering
commitment to transparency, integrity, and excellence. In the hallowed halls of our revered organiza�on, a momentous event
unfolded on June 30, 2023, a pivotal juncture where the Board of Directors, embodying wisdom and foresight, convened and
endorsed the contents of this report. Within these pages lie not just words, but a narra�ve of our collec�ve journey, a tapestry
woven with dedica�on, perseverance, and relentless pursuit of excellence.
In the backdrop of an ever-evolving global economy, Bangladesh stands tall as a beacon of economic resilience and growth.
Bangladesh, with its vibrant economy, has consistently showcased impressive growth rates, underpinned by a thriving industrial
sector, robust export ac�vi�es, and a burgeoning middle class. The country's GDP growth remains steadfast, bolstered by diverse
sectors including tex�les, manufacturing, and services. One of the key drivers of Bangladesh's economic success is its significant
investment in infrastructure development. The na�on has embarked on ambi�ous projects, including the expansion of
transporta�on networks, moderniza�on of ports, and the establishment of industrial zones. These ini�a�ves not only enhance
domes�c connec�vity but also amplify our global compe��veness.
Bangladesh is increasingly recognized as an emerging market with vast poten�al. Its large consumer base, coupled with a growing
disposable income, presents a plethora of opportuni�es for businesses. Bangladesh's strategic geographical loca�on and its ac�ve
par�cipa�on in global trade make it a hub for commerce. The country's export-oriented approach has resulted in the expansion
of interna�onal trade rela�onships. The na�on's economic landscape has undergone a remarkable transforma�on, posi�oning
itself as a significant player in the interna�onal market.
In the ever-changing tapestry of consumer habits, the Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industry, especially within the realm
of packaged foods, is undergoing a profound transforma�on. This metamorphosis is intricately woven into the fabric of urban,
semi-urban, and rural life. A paradigm shi� in lifestyle choices has propelled a surge in the demand for packaged and processed
foods, a trend that resonates across all segments of society. Bangladesh, with its vibrant and consump�on-driven economy,
mirrors this change remarkably. The FMCG industry, ac�ng as a barometer of economic progress, stands as a testament to the
na�on's resilience and adaptability. The industrial landscape, once marred by a decline in manufacturing output, is now
witnessing resurgence, indica�ng a robust revival.
Within this bustling economic milieu, the ice cream industry in Bangladesh emerges as a true standout. Unparalleled in its growth
trajectory, this sector has defied norms and exceeded expecta�ons. In 2022, the market for ice cream experienced an
extraordinary upswing which marked a phenomenal 95 percent increase compared to the previous year.
The surge in demand for ice cream can be a�ributed to various factors. The gradual return to normalcy, following the uncertain�es
of the pandemic, played a pivotal role. People, reassured of ice cream's safety, embraced it with open arms. Beyond this, the
market's expansion mirrors the evolving lifestyles of the populace, bolstered by increased spending capacity, urbaniza�on, and
improved access to essen�al ameni�es, including power grids, even in rural areas. In essence, the FMCG industry, with ice cream
at its forefront, symbolizes Bangladesh's unstoppable spirit. It encapsulates not only economic growth but also the spirit of
resilience, adaptability, and the unwavering determina�on of the Bangladeshi people. As we move forward, this dynamic
landscape promises boundless opportuni�es, where innova�on and consumer preferences converge to shape a future that is as
promising as it is exci�ng.
Embracing change, driving progress, and savoring the sweet taste of success, Bangladesh's FMCG journey con�nues, illumina�ng
the path toward a thriving future.

1. SWOT Analysis:
For business excellence, we also follow a strategic plan and it is SWOT. SWOT is actually a business analysis occurred internally and
externally. SWOT of a company actually shows 4 major categorical analyses:
S – Strength
W – Weakness
O – Opportuni�es
T – Threats
Strength:
Our company has swi�ly become iden�cal with producing exquisite products, a testament to our steadfast commitment to quality
and taste. More than just a business, we embrace the power of diversity, inclusion, and con�nuous learning. Our people, the
heartbeat of our enterprise, represent our essence of strength. We champion the art of connec�on, fostering loyalty and mo�va-
�on, crea�ng a corporate culture steeped in engagement and warmth. Within our walls, an atmosphere of openness prevails,
nurturing a high-performance environment where our team thrives. We relentlessly pursue excellence, expanding our product
range to encompass a deligh�ul array of flavors, party packs, s�cks, cones, and mini treats. Our mo�va�on stems from more than
just our products; it's cul�vated by a dynamic and skilled management team that propels us toward boundless horizons.
Weaknesses:
Though started newly, LOVELLO is going on having less market share and crossing so many hardships to pierce into a new market.
The company goes with the tough compe��on in the market from interna�onal and na�onal ice cream products. Moreover, the
four major facts are:
Opportuni�es:
In the bustling heart of major ci�es, our company is unfurling its wings, seizing the opportunity to expand its footprint. A delecta-
ble revolu�on is underway as the demand for ice cream and frozen delights skyrockets in hotels, restaurants, par�es, and myriad
celebra�ons. With our commitment to quality at an affordable price, we find ourselves at the epicenter of a growing appe�te. As
ice cream market is on the rise, the biggest opportuni�es for the company are
Threats:
In the intricate dance of commerce, threats are the tempestuous waves that test a business's me�le. A ship adri� in placid waters
lacks direc�on; similarly, a business unchallenged by threats lacks the impetus for innova�on and resilience. We navigate the
tumult of poli�cal transi�ons, the uncertainty of economic climates, the complexi�es of labor pricing, and the flickering lights of
load shedding that cast shadows on our path. Through analysis we have found some other threats in business:
These challenges, while daun�ng, are the crucible in which our resilience is forged. Naviga�ng these intricate waters requires not
just a steady hand but also the innova�on to adapt, ensuring our ship not only sails but triumphs amidst the storm.

reached the age of 72 years. The Board may from �me to �me determine to relax or waive this guideline in rela�on to any director
whom the Board considers has skills, experience or capabili�es that cannot be replaced at the relevant �me.
