ABSTRACT

Industrial internship is a significant mode of independent and

experiential learning in the student’s profession / specialization. A well

scheduled, executed, evaluated industrial internship is the best way for

student professional attitude development. The objective behind the

INDIA FRESH FOODS LIMITED.” appointed from 21 st December 2018

to 27 th April 2019. Where we tried to gain an understanding of

administrative functions and corporate culture as well as we also tried to

develop a responsiveness of self-disciplinary nature. We even figured out

some differences between theoretical knowledge and actual performance.

Rest this formatted report might explain our experience and learning

throughout the industrial internship.

other consumables. It is the 4 th largest sector in Indian economy. Three main segments of

FMCG are:

1. Household and Personal care

It accounts for 50 per cent of the sector. This segment includes health

beverages, cereals, bakery products, snacks, chocolates, ice cream,

processed fruits and vegetables, dairy products etc.

2. Healthcare

It accounts for 31 per cent of the sector. This segment includes on the

counter products and ethical.

3. Food & Beverages

It accounts for 19 per cent of the sector. This segment includes health

beverages, staples/cereals, bakery products, snacks, chocolates, ice cream,

tea/coffee/soft drinks, processed fruits and vegetables, dairy products, and

Financial Year

Fig 1.1 Trends in FMCG revenues over the years

The graph in figure 1.1 shows the increasing revenues accounted by the

organized FMCG companies over the years to the national economy. The data shown

in the graph are given from financial year 2011 to financial year 2017 and also

expected revenues to be made by financial year 2020.

In the financial year 2011 the revenue made was 2.0 lakh crore which increased

to 3.4 lakh crore in the financial year 2017. It is expected to account 6.7 lakh crore by

the financial year 2020.

1.3 Strategies adopted

a) Promotions and offers

FMCG companies are trying to influence consumers with intelligent

deals. Firms like ITC offers combo deals to the consumers. For example,

in the case of soaps and cosmetics; 4 soap cases are offered at the price of

3, selling the range of deodorants for men and women at a discounted price.

Department of Agricultural Engineering, SOE, RK University 2


INDUSTRIAL BACKROUND

b) Research online purchase offline

The internet enables consumers to make their own research on the kind of

products or commodities they want to purchase.

c) New product launches

Keeping in mind the changing tastes of the Indian consumer, FMCG

companies are introducing new products to gain market share.

d) Expansion

Expanding the plants and their outlets make easy for a customer to

reach and also increasing production.

e) Customization

Product flanking: introduction of different combinations of products at

different prices, to cover as many market segments as possible.

f) Green initiatives to lower costs

FMCG companies are looking to invest in energy efficient plants to benefit

the society and lower costs in the long term.

g) Joint venture

Collaborating and having Tie-ups with other companies to customize

and have single product with a multi brand.

h) Analytics

To get analyzed all the data according to consumer requirements as

well as consumer’s requirements and manufacture product according to the

analytics.

Department of Agricultural Engineering, SOE, RK University 3


INDUSTRIAL BACKROUND

i) Product/ category expansion

Expanding the product and the sub product as well as the categories

expansion should be done to increase the product selling.

1.4 Growth drivers for India’s FMCG sector

a) Growth to organized market

Organized sector growth is expected to grow as the share of

unorganized market in the FMCG sector fall with increased level of brand

consciousness. Growth in modern retail will augment the growth of organized

FMCG sector. Post GST and demonetization, modern trade share grew to 10

per cent of the overall FMCG revenue, as of august 2018.

b) Increase in penetration

Low penetration levels of branded products in categories like instant

foods indicating a scope for volume growth. Investment in this sector attracts

investors as the FMCG products have demand throughout the year.

c) Easy access

Availability of products has become way more easier as internet and

different channels of sales has made the accessibility of desired product to

customers more convenient at required time and place.

d) Rural consumption

Rural consumption has increased, led by a combination of increasing

incomes and higher aspiration levels, there is an increased demand for branded

products in rural India. Rural India accounts for 45 per cent of the total FMCG

market, as of 2017-18.

Department of Agricultural Engineering, SOE, RK University 4


INDUSTRIAL BACKROUND

1.5 Opportunities in the Indian FMCG industry

a) Rural market

Leading players of consumer products have a strong distribution

network in rural India; they also stand to gain from the contribution of

technological advances like internet and e-commerce to better logistics.

b) Innovative products

Indian consumers are highly adaptable to new and innovative products.

c) Premium products

With the rise in disposable incomes, mid and high-income consumers

in urban areas have shifted their purchase trend from essential to premium

products.

d) Sourcing base

Indian and multinational FMCG players can leverage India as a

strategic sourcing hub for cost-competitive product development and

manufacturing to cater to international markets.

e) Penetration

Low penetration levels offer room for growth across consumption

categories. Major players are focusing on rural markets to increase their

penetration in those areas.

f) Online FMCG

It is estimated that 40 per cent of all FMCG purchases in India will be

online by 2020.

g) Start-up ventures

Joint ventures capital fund to invest in FMCG start-ups.

CHAPTER 4

MACHINARIES & EQUIPMENTS IN COMPANY

4.1 Material handling equipment’s

Material handling equipment is any tool used to aid in the movement,

protection, storage, and control of materials and products. The equipment used to

do so can be broken down into four main categories. Each category has a wide

variety of useful equipment that makes safely moving heavy materials or large

volumes of materials easier.

Types of material handling equipment

There are mainly four types of material handling equipment in the firm which are as

following,

1. Storage and Handling Equipment:

The title of this equipment category is pretty self-explanatory. Storage

equipment is used to hold materials while they wait to be transported from the

manufacturer or wholesaler to their final destination.

Examples of storage and handling equipment include:

(A) Racks: such as pallet racks, drive-through or drive-in racks, push-back racks,

and sliding racks

(B) Stacking frames: these are interlocking units that enable stacking of a load so

crushing doesn’t occur

(C) Shelves

(D) Bins and drawers

(E) Mezzanines: elevated floor systems that are installed between the production

floor and ceiling in order to provide additional storage space. Most of these

structures can be dismantled and moved with ease.

Department of Agricultural Engineering, SOE, RK University 20


MACHINARIES & EQUIPMENTS IN COMPANY

2. Engineered Systems

These types of material handling equipment are typically automated units

that work together to enable efficient storage and transportation of large materials

or large volumes of materials around the production floor.

Examples of engineered systems include:

(A) AS/RS: Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (abbreviated as AS/RS)

are large automated structures that involves racks, aisles and shelves that are

accessible by a type of mechanized shuttle system (like a cherry picker) for

the quick retrieval of items.

(B) Conveyor systems: Automated conveyor systems carry heavy materials to

specified destinations using belts, flexible chain, or live rollers. It is a highly

efficient equipment to move large volumes of material quickly.

(C) Robotic delivery systems: These automated systems are ideal for moving

products on an assembly line or transporting goods throughout a plant or

warehouse.

(D) Automatic guided vehicles: These vehicles are mobile robots that follow

specific markers or wires in the floor to move large materials around a

manufacturing facility or warehouse. Vision, magnets, or lasers can also be

used as methods for AGV navigation.

3. Industrial Trucks:

Powered industrial trucks, such as forklifts, are used to move large

materials or large quantities of materials around the manufacturing floor.

Examples of industrial trucks include:

(A) Hand trucks: Also known as a dolly, or box cart. Hand trucks are L-shaped

box-moving handcarts with handles at one end, wheels at the base, and a ledge

to set objects on.

4. Bulk Material Handling Equipment

Equipment that deals with bulk handling aids in the control and

transportation of large volumes of material either in bulk or loose form. In general

the equipment is used to move loose parts from one area of the production floor to

another. Drums and hoppers can also be used to funnel loose items so they can be

easily manipulated or packaged. Bulk Material Handling Systems can also utilize

conveyor belts for horizontal transportation and elevators for vertical

transportation.

Examples of bulk material handling equipment are:

(A) Conveyor belts

(B) Stackers: Similar to forklifts, stackers help to lift and stack heavy loads on

the dock or in the warehouse.

(C) Bucket elevators: Also known as a grain leg. These elevators haul flow able

bulk materials vertically.

(D) Grain elevators: This type of equipment is used to store and move grain and

other similar materials throughout a production pathway.

(E) Hoppers: Hoppers are a container for bulk material such as grain that tapers

and discharges its materials at the bottom.

CHAPTER 6

QUALITY ANALYSIS & QUALITY CONTROL

DEPARTMENT

6.1 Quality Control

Quality assurance is "a planned and systematic means for assuring

management that the defined standards, practices, procedures, and methods of the

process are applied." "The purpose of [quality] measurement and analysis (MA) is to

develop and sustain a measurement capability used to support management

information needs.

6.2 Quality Control System

These principles each have a part to play in the overall quality management

process.

1. Raw Material Control

Raw materials are the basic ingredients used to create food products. These

could be fruit and vegetables that are farmed and harvested; cows, chickens, pigs and

sheep that are farmed for their meat, eggs and dairy products and various other items.

Naturally, raw material control is directly related to process control as raw ingredients

will need to meet certain guidelines before reaching processing phases.

2. Process Control

This principle relates to the process of food manufacturing. Ultimately,

preventative measures are used alongside corrective measures – preventative

strategies can only resolve a certain number of quality issues due to outside factors

such as environment, storage and other such conditions. Many manufacturers work

according to the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) system as a result

of this unpredictability. This system focuses on food safety as well as spoilage and

other potential food risks. Total Quality Management (TQM) and ISO 9000 standards

also relate to manufacturing processes and quality guidelines.

Department of Agricultural Engineering, SOE, RK University 39


QUALITY ANALYSIS & QUALITY CONTROL DEPARTMENT

3. Finished Product Inspection

The third principle focuses on the final product – the packaged food that is

then sold to consumers and suppliers. There are many forms of testing done at different

stages – visual observation, physical tests and chemical tests are just some examples.

Microbiological testing is very effective for determining health and sanitation

controls, with a stringent monitoring process that incorporates records, data collection

and the analysis of trends. External inspectors are also used alongside internal testers.

Systems are designed for immediate corrective action when any products have raised

red flags at any stage of the inspection, to reduce safety and hazard risks.

Here are some lab test which are performed in the company for quality control.

1. Moisture content

It is important parameter for checking its quality. Amount of moisture

determines keeping quality of namkeen and also affects texture of final product.

Procedure:

1. Take sample from finished product line.

2. Crushing the sample with help of pestle motor.

3. Take 5 gm of crushed sample and put into moisture analyzer for 5 minutes.

4. After 5 minutes observe the result on the moisture analyzer screen.

2. Salt test

Higher salt may causes bitterness in namkeen and decrease shelf life of

namkeen.

Procedure

1. Around 2 gm crushed namkeen sample was taken into conical flask and 125

ml of distilled water.

2. Few drops of potassium chromate as indicator were added.

3. Solution was titrated with 0.1 N silver nitrate,change in colour (reddish brown

ting persists) indicates end point, blank determination using water only was

done as reference.

Salt percentage was determine using given formula.

% salt – Titrate value x 0.1 N AgNo₃ x 5.485

Weight of sample taken

Department of Agricultural Engineering, SOE, RK University 40


QUALITY ANALYSIS & QUALITY CONTROL DEPARTMENT

3. Acidity test

Higher acidity reduces shelf life of namkeen and increases sourness.

Procedure

1. 5 gm crushed namkeen sample (10 ml for juice) was taken into conical flask.

2. 50 ml distilled water added to sample.

3. Then few drops of 1% phenolphthalein indicator added.

4. Solution was titrated with 0.1 N SODIUM HYDROXIDE.

5. Change in colour (light pink colour persist) indicates end point and titrate value

was noted

Acid percentage is calculating using given formula.

% acidity – Titrate value x 0.1 N NaOh x 0.064 x 100

(for namkeen) Weight of sample taken

% acidity – Titrate value x 0.1 N NaOh x 0.007 x 100

(for juice) Weight of sample taken

4. Peroxide value

It is measuring the peroxide contained in the oil. It indicates age of sample.

Detection of peroxide gives initial evidence of rancidity in unsaturated oils.

Procedure

1. Take 4 to 5 gm of sample is accurately weighed into dried 250 ml flask.

2. To that, 25 ml of solvent (mix of 2 volume of glacial acetic acid and 1 volume

of chloroform) is added and mix homogeneously.

3. 1 ml of potassium iodide solution is added and allow to stand in dark for 1

minute.

4. After 1 minute, 1 ml distilled water and 1 ml starch indicator was added and

titrated against 0.01N SODIUM THIOSULPHATE from 10 ml volumetric

burette.

5. End point is disappearance of blue colour, peroxide value was determined

using following formula.

Peroxide value – Titrate value x 0.1 N THIOSULPHATE x 1000

Weight of sample

Department of Agricultural Engineering, SOE, RK University 41


QUALITY ANALYSIS & QUALITY CONTROL DEPARTMENT

5. Free Fatty Acid (FFA)test

Higher free fatty acid causes hydrolytic rancidity with degrades quality of

cooking and frying oils.

Procedure

1. About 20 gm of vegetable oil is weighed accurately into 250 ml conical flask.

2. 50 ml of solvent prepare by mixing equal volume of 90% Alcohol and Diethayl

ether are added.

3. Swirled well and titrated against 0.05N NaOH with phenolphthalein as

indicator till light pink colour appears free fatty acid was determined using

given formula.

FFA % – Titrate value x 0.05 N NaOh x 28.2

Weight of sample

4. Quality assurance

Quality is the fitness of the product for use by consumers. The management of

the quality shall be done at all levels of production (from receiving and handling of

raw materials to storage of finished product) to ensure that quality attributes conform

to the specification as stipulated in Appendix.

1. Raw materials

The raw material for potato crisps is fresh potato tubers (ware potato tubers).

2. Fresh potato tubers (ware potato tubers)

a. Harvest potato tubers at the right stage of maturity.

b. Ensure that potato tubers are fresh, firm, clean, wholesome, and free from pests

and diseases.

c. Segregate fresh potato tubers into whole, damaged, sprouted and diseased.

3. Potato crisps quality assurance
