What promotions , when (period) and what would be the budget for the promotion to promote your owen brand of Basmati rice ?
Undertake or commission market research to discover the retail rice prices, key market players and niche (if any). Basmati rice from Pakistan is often much better quality than Indian, who often repack and sell it as Indian basmati. Also have business contacts in the Middle East, Pakistan and India.

well i can tell you basmati rice is well known in those countries…i would bend over and appeal to the biggest supermarket player..offering an exclusitivity would be very good to start thing off…then you’ll see they all like pakistani rice better anyways..like the guy above me said they repack and it gets noticed..they start to not trust it.
