The company operates a franchised distribution system dating back to 1889 where The Coca-Cola
Company only produces syrup concentrate which is then sold to various bottlers throughoutthe
world who hold an exclusive territory.The Coca-Cola Company is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia.
Its current president and CEO isMuhtar Kent.
History:-
The Coca-Cola Company was originally established as the J. S. Pemberton Medicine Company,a co-
partnership between Dr. John Stith Pemberton and Ed Holland. The company was formed tosell
three main products: Pemberton's French Wine of Cola (later known as Coca-Cola),Pemberton's
Indian Queen Hair Dye, and Pemberton's Globe Flower Cough Syrup.Finally in October of 1888, the
company received a charter with an authorized capital of $50,000. The charter became official on
January 15, 1889. By this time, the company hadexpanded their offerings to include Pemberton's
Orange and Lemon Elixir.
Mission, Vision & Values:-
Our mission, vision and values outline who we are, what we seek to achieve, and how we wantto
achieve it. They

THE MARKETING PROCESS

Need, Want and Demand:-
The coca-cola company at the beginning sells medicine,when they analyze the need of the customer
toward soft drink,in that Era when they identify that soft drink is also the wantand demand of
people, then they decided to come into softdrink business, the medicine that they are selling change
therename i.e.
Pemberton's French Wine of Cola (later known as
Coca-
Cola)

The demand is unprecedented, and we see it every day in our sales numbers. But it's not especially
surprising, as consumers become aware of the role of calories consumed and calories burned in the
obesity equation. Now a day major Customers Needs are:First
of all the majority dont care that what they are going to have. In other words, they dont
care
before drinking that whether it is Pepsi or coke. They dont actually differentiate
between these two brands in order to their tastes.Consumers basically drink what they get.They
believe on
WHAT COLD THEY SOLD
Consumers availability in brands is
basically works like:Push availability
Pull consumers demand.
For this reason Coca-Cola have provided their coolers and freezers in the market. They
havemaximum number of coolers and freezers in the market. They provide this infrastructure free of
cost just to provide chilled coke to their customer, which they want to be purchase.

Their salesman and mechanics regularly visit all the shops where coke has its infrastructure tocheck
that either it is in proper condition or not, if not then they immediately change or repair it.
Customer Driven Market Strategy:-
Market Segmentation:-Regional segmentation:
By continent, State,Country or Neighbor hood.Regional officesRegions or province or cities
Size:
Segmentation according to size of population.PopulationTarget market population
Population density:
Often classified as urban or rural.
Climate:
Segmentation according to weather condition.
-
8/10/2019 REPORE OF COCACOLA.docx
11/31
Demographic:
Segmentation according to age, gender, family size.
Target Market:-
Cokes commercials basically based on young generations,
so, the younggeneration is the target market of Coke because they want to represent Coke with the
youth andenergy but they also consider about the old people they take then as a co-target market.
5
Positioning:-
Once a business has decided which segmentsof the market it will compete in, developed a clear
picture of its target market and defined its product, the positioningstrategy can be developed.
Positioning is the process of creating, the image the product holds in the mind of consumers, relative
to competing products. Coca Cola andFranklins both make soft drinks; although Franklins may try
tocompete they will still be seen as down market from CocaCola.Positioning helps customers
understand what is unique about the products when compared withthe competition. Coca Cola plan
to further create positions that will give their products thegreatest advantage in their target
markets. Coca Cola has been positioned based on the process of positioning by direct comparison
and have positioned their products to benefit their targetmarket. Most people create an image of a

product by comparing it to another product, thusevident through the famous battles between Coca-
Cola and Pepsi products.
Prepare the marketing program that delivers superior value (4 P, s):-
Product
:
Many Products are physical objects that you can ownand take home. But the word product means
much more than just physical goods. In marketing, product also refers to services,such as holidays or
a movie, where you enjoy the benefitswithout owning the result of the service.Businesses must
think about products on threedifferent levels, which are the core product, the actual product
6
and the augmented product. The core product is what the consumer is actually buying and the
benefits it gives. Coca Cola customers are buying a wide range of soft drinks. The actual productis
the parts and features, which deliver the core product. Consumers will buy the coke product
because of the high standards and high quality of the Coca Cola products. The augmented product is
the extra consumer benefits and services provided to customers. Since soft drinks are aconsumable
good, the augmented level is very limited. But Coca Cola do offer a help line andcomplaint phone
service for customers who are not satisfied with the product or wish to givefeedback on the
products.

Price
:
Price is a very important part of the marketing mix as it can affect both the supply and
demand for Coca Cola. The price of Coca Colas products is one of the most important factors ina
customers decision to buy. Price will often be the difference that will push a customer to buy
our product over another, as long as most things are fairly similar. For this reason pricing policies
need to be designed with consumers and external influences in mind, in order toeffectively achieve a
stable balance between sales and covering the production costs.Price strategies are important to
Coca Cola because the price determines the amount of sales and profit per unit sold. Businesses
have to set a price that is attractive to their customersand provides the business with a good level of
profit. Long before a sale was ever made CocaCola had developed a forecast of consumer demand at
different prices which inevitablydetermined whether or not the product came on the market, as well
as the allocation of adequatemoney and resources to produce promote and distribute the product.
Pricing Strategies and Tactics:-
The pricing Strategy a business will use will have to focus
on achieving the marketing plans objectives and support the positioning of the product, and take
external factors such as economic conditions and competitors in to account. There are 5strategies
available to business: Market skimming pricing, Penetration pricing, Loss leaders,Price Points and
Discounts. Over the years Coca Cola has used Penetration Pricing as a way of grabbing a foothold in
the market and won a market share. Its product penetrated themarketplace. Once customer loyalty
is established as seen with Coca Cola it is then able to
-

14/31

slowly raise the price of its product. There has been a fierce pricing rivalry between Coca Colaand
Pepsi products as each company competes for customer recognition and satisfaction. Tillnow it
appears as if Coke has come up on top, although in order to gain long term profits Cokehad to
sacrifice short term profits where in some cases it either went under of just broke even, but as seen
it has been all for the best.
Place and Distribution:-
The place P of the marketing mix refers to distribution of the product- the ways of getting the
product to the market. The distribution of products starts withthe producer and ends with the
consumer.
One key element of the Place/Distribution aspect is the
respective distribution channels that Coca Cola has electedto transport and sells its
product.Selecting the most appropriate distribution channel isimportant, as the choice will
determine sales levels and costs. The choice for a distributionchannel for any business depends on
numerous factors, these include:
How far away the customers are;
The type of product being transported;
-
8/10/2019 REPORE OF COCACOLA.docx
15/31
The lead times required; and;
The costs associated with transport;There are four types of distribution strategies that Coca Cola
could have chosen from, these are:intensive, selective, exclusive and direct distribution. It is
apparent from the popularity of the
Coca Colas product on the market that the business in the past used the method of intensive
distribution as the product is available at every possible outlet. From supermarkets to
servicestations to your local corner shop, anywhere you go you will find the Coca Cola products.
8
Promotion:-
In todays competitive
environment, having theright product at the right place in the right place at the righttime may still
not be enough to be successful. Effectivecommunication with the target market is essential for
thesuccess of the product and business. Promotion is the p of themarketing mix designed to inform
the marketplace about whoyou are, how good your product is and where they can buy it.Promotion
is also used to persuade the customers to try a new product, or buy more of an old product.The
promotional mix is the combination of personal selling, advertising, sales promotionand public
relations that it uses in its marketing plan. Above the line promotions refers tomainstream media:
-
8/10/2019 REPORE OF COCACOLA.docx
16/31
Advertising through common media such as television, radio, transport, and billboards and in
newspapers and magazines. Because most of the target is most likely to beexposed to media such as
television, radio and magazines, Coca Cola has used this as the mainform of promotion for extensive
range of products. Although advertising is usually veryexpensive, it is the most effective way of
reminding and exposing potential customers toCoca Cola Products. Coca Cola also utilizes below the
line promotions such as contests,coupons, and free samples. These activities arean effective way of
getting people to give your product a go.

Develop Relationship with the customer (CRM + PRM):-
Customer Relationship management:-
Serving business and consumer customers
Yet, to truly take advantage of the Coca-Cola Freestyle, the company felt it needed a new portalfor
its end customers. Customers, for Coca-Cola, mean the end consumers and distributors andsmall
store owners. Small businesses that have traditionally relied on hand-written invoices and phone
ordering will be able to log into a self-service website and do their ordering from there."This will
reduce write-offs and collection costs," Condra said, noting that it would helpeliminate many of the
write-offs associated with the hand-written invoices.The site will also offer suggestions on what
needs to be ordered, based on past consumption."For customers, its driving profitability; now it's
truly a partnership," Condra said. "With partners and distributors, it's about our supply chain. Over
-

17/31
time, it's really going to be a responseto their needs. They can go to this one location and have those
needs met."Coca-Cola is turning to SAP for the underlying technology. While the requirements of the
sitedemanded a business-to-business approach, the fact that it would eventually reach 3 million
endcustomers, many of whom are small store owners, demanded a simple business-to-consumer
interface."For an outlet manager to understand the dynamics would be very difficult, so we've
assistedthem in that process," Condra said. "The standard CRM out of the box from an e-
commercestandpoint would have had a lot of steps. We tried to think about the mandatory clicks
acustomer has to enter."
Building a customer-focused website
10
Coca-Cola called in Edison, N.J.-based Fujitsu Consulting to help with the project. The first stepin
establishing the site was to form a creative design team made up of two business owners, anon-SAP
Web design expert, a CRM functional e-commerce lead, and an SAP CRM technicalJava lead. They
supplemented that with end users that represented everything from a businessowner running five
outlets to small "mom and pop" shop owners.The Web design experts presented their approach in
html, and the SAP CRM experts outlined thegap between what was available within SAP and what
needed to be customized. They then prioritized the development required."If the business impact is
medium or lower and development time is 20, 30 or even 10 days, wego back to them," said Sathish
Thandale, project manager with Fujitsu. "They always had theusability as the priority, and the SAP
experts always had SAP CRM in their mind."

Coca-Cola Enterprises and
SAP
have formed a strategic partnership to develop Direct StoreDelivery (DSD) functionality. Coca-Cola
joins leading Consumer Products (CP) manufacturerslike Colgate-Palmolive, Kimberly-Clarke,
Hershey, and General Mills in partnering with SAP todevelop new functionality, including Trade
Promotions Management (TPM), Supply ChainPlanning (SCP), customer analytics, and Product
Lifecycle Management (PLM).

Corporate social responsibility
::--
Corporate Social Responsibility projects within Coca-Cola Sabco are chosen using a decentralized
modelwithin a broad Group Corporate Responsibility Policy.Each territory, and, in South Africa, each
regionchooses the community project they would like tosupport, but are called upon to justify their
selectionswithin the Group Policy and Governance Processes.Additionally, the Group Policy requires
each operationto invest the equivalent of at least one percent of itsoperating profit in community
projects.The following section of the report intends to present some examples of how Coca-Cola
Sabco partners with its communities to provide support in areas where assistance is required.
WhileCoca-Cola Sabco often provides funding for projects, many of our employees devote their
owntime to the initiatives we support and we thank them as well as the many people from
thecommunity organizations we partner with. Their selfless devotion to securing the welfare of
others helps make the world a place that we can be proud to live in.
Health and Wellbeing
The Companys operations conduct intervention
programs that addressspecific health risks, including HIV/AIDS, malaria and lifestyle diseases such as
obesity. In Nigeria, for example, Coca-Cola Hellenic provides HIV/AIDS education, voluntary
counseling ,testing and anti-retroviral medicines together with government, the Global Business
Coalition onHIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, local NGOs and The Coca-Cola Company. Awareness
activities were extended in 2007 to reach 3,000 part-time employees, dealers, suppliers and

RECOMMENDATIONS
After completing our project we have concluded some recommendation for the coca colacompany,
which are following.
Coca Cola Company should try to emphasis more on providing their infrastructure in the market to
facilitate their customers.
According to the survey, conducted by the international firm Pakistani people like little bit sweeter
cola drink. So for this coca cola company should produce their productaccording to the local
demand.
Marketing team should try to increase the availability of Coke in rural areas.
They should also focus the old people.
Now young generation has a trend to drink coke 2 regular bottles at same time, so providing more
satisfaction to them company should introduce liter disposable bottle.
