Conclusion

17
  All company has a very good reputation in the industry.

 People are more aware about all companies.

 Middle class people should not be considered as a major customer group who are
interested in company products.

 Industrial visit was good according to as far me and I learn very muct form that ture and I
got many information about the companies .

 This is my good experience in industrial visit.

It was a good experience altogether and each company I visited contributed to a part in
understanding the course better. On a personal level, it improved my relationship with my
existing friends and I also got to know other students whom I never actually had a proper
conversation with. I was amazed by how much I enjoyed these few days which turned out to be
educational and yet so much fun, given my earlier reservations about the trip. Not surprisingly,
on my way back I wished the trip had been longer and was sad that it was all over!
