    SwitzerlandhaslaunchedSinalcoColaInterview with Mr. Marco Imfeld, Head of Marketing Ramseier Swisse AG for Sinalco World 2009

    The Sinalco soft drink brand en-joys great popularity in Switzerland just as in the rest of Europe. How is its current standing?

    Sinalco has a brand aware-

    nessrateinSwitzerlandofover90%.Thishastodoontheonehandwiththe fact that the brand is very close-

    ly tiedtoSwitzerlandforhistoricalreasons and that in general, the

    brandisperceivedbythepopu-lationtobeaSwissbrand.In

    addition, we are practically100% distributed in retail

    andthuspresentalmosteverywhere.

    Since this year, for the first time Sinal-co Cola and Sinal-co Cola Zero have been available in PET and glass. Why was it abso-lutely necessary to launch a Si-nalco Cola soft drink on the market?

    On one hand,currently we canalso supply retailstores with Si-nalco Cola, which

    was not possiblebefore, and on the

    other hand, we seethe immense po-

    tentialof theSinalcobrandwithsoftdrinks

    outside of the Orangesegment, too. In Swit-

    zerland,560millionlitresofclassicsweetsoftdrinks

    areconsumedeachyear;halfof that is Cola. This is reason

    enough to actively work thissub-market too with the Sinalco

    brand.For the launch, we were primarily

    aidedbythefocuson“theSwissCola“.“Swissness“ and thus the concentra-tion on our own strengths and pro-

    What promotional steps were/are being taken to support the pro-duct launch of Sinalco Cola and to raise brand awareness of the family brand Sinalco in 2009?

    In terms of communications, wepushedthelaunchinthefirstquarterwithasignificantpresenceinthefoodand beverage industry and POS (atplaceswherefoodanddrinksareser-ved) with advertising materials suchasglasses,tabledisplaysandscratchcards(drawingforaSinalcoVespa).

    Sinalco Cola is incorporated intoSinalco’s family brand communi-cation. This brand communicationfocusesmostofallonthecommuni-cative “Beachlife” plugs. As such, insummer, we‘ll be present at 8 loca-tions throughout Switzerland withthe2009beachtour.Thisisaneventpresencewhichhastodowithbeachvolleyball, while mainly accentuatingthe lifestyle character. So, we’ll bepresent on location at these compe-titionswithaspeciallycreatedbeachlounge.Thistourwillalsobeaccom-panied with classic means of com-munication inthenationalcommu-ternewspaper20Minutes, in regi-onal print titlesand on regionalradio and TV sta-tions.

    How have con-sumers and retai-lers responded to Sinalco Cola?

    80% of our foodand beverage in-dustry customerswere switched overto Sinalco Cola, in-

    cluding a couple major propertiessuch as theStade deSuisse inBerne(football stadium) and the St. Ja-kobshalle in Basel. Furthermore, agreatmanynewcustomerswereableto be won - both in the food serviceindustryandinretail.

    Without exception, we have recei-ved very positive feedback from con-sumersonourColaversionincludingin the taste test vs. Coca Cola. Natu-rally, it is still unusual that SinalconowalsohasaColabeverageontheSwissmarket;forthisreason,onfirstcontact,consumersstillhavethefee-lingthatSinalcoColaisamixedCola-Orangedrink.Thisisunderstandable,however, since Swiss consumers hadbeentoldformorethan50yearsthatSinalco is Orange.

    Interview

    Mrs. Dannhäuser, you started working at Sinalco on 1st August 1967. How did you end up working at Sinalco at 16? Could you have imagined starting your training at another company back then?

    AtthattimeinDetmoldtherewereonly 2 companies with internationalbusiness relationships who trainedindustrial clerks. It worked out rightawaywithmyfirstapplication, i.e.toSinalcoAG.

    You started training to be an industrial clerk at Sinalco. What other duties did you perform at Si-nalco?

    During the training, we wentthrough all of the departments inthe company. That meant, for indus-trial clerks, that they have to knowalltheproductionprocessesbutalsoinspectorsortbottlesinthebottlingarea, organise loading of goods andeven load them themselves. It wasalso expected that trainees continuetheireducationinadditiontotheac-

After my traineeship, I star-tedindataprocessingandthenoverthe course of next few years I wor-ked inthebusinessdepartment/costaccounting, in purchasing and thenwentontoheadinsurance,switchingtoexportin1994.

    In 42 years, you work with quite a number of employees. How many directors did you meet during your time?

    In the 70s and 80s, at times therewere 3 chairpersons for the differentpartsof thecompany. All together, Imust have met 8 or 9 chairpersons/directors.

    You also worked for the head-quarters at the time in Switzerland. What did you do there?

    In themainadministrations inFri-bourgandthenRheinfelden,thechiefoperators met in regular rotations,inorder todiscussnewprogrammesand improving the old ones and toexchange their experiences. A dataprocessing programme written fora Swiss company logically had to becompletelychangedforuseinGerma-ny.SinceIwastheonlyonetheirfrom“way up north”, I did have troublesometimes understanding my Swisscolleagues speaking the Bernese di-alect.AttimesitwaseasiertospeakFrench with them. It also happenedthat I stood in for sick colleagues inRheinfelden, since only chief opera-torswiththemasterpasswordswereallowedtoworkandhadaccesstoalltheprogrammes.

    Since 1th May 1994 you’ve been head of exports in office at Sinalco. What did you find particularly fun in this position?

    Can work be fun? I don’t know,there were many times with greatpotential for fun, e.g. when our for-mer partner in Yemen called us eve-ry afternoon around 4:00 pm withhis cheeks full of quat, appropriatelyblurry,dependingonhowmuchquathe’dhad,andwanttoexchangeideasabout this and that with “Dannhau-sen“. Or when a sheik’s brothers inSaudiArabiawerelookingforhim,wedidn‘trevealtothemthathewassta-yinginAmsterdaminordertoprocure“stimuli“(incoffeeshops)forhisnewdrinkdevelopments.Orwhen,inthemiddleofthenight,togetherwehadtoseetothealcoholsuppliesforourIcelandicfriendssothattheycouldbetransportedsomewhatpeaceably.

    In 1997, Sinalco was sold and the move was made from the former headquarter in Detmold to the new headquarter here in Duisburg. Was it difficult to start business at the new headquarter?

    It was to some extent like if some“exotic people” would move to the“wildwest”now.ThatwassortofthewaywemusthaveseemedtotheHö-velmannpeople,too.TherearesometherethatspeakinEnglishalmostallthetimeandmovethroughthehallssometimes with somewhat odd loo-kingforms.Wemusthavebeenreallysuccessfulintakingupbusinessope-rations here in Duisburg since someofourpartnersdidn‘tnoticeuntilye-ars later that we no longer operatedfromDetmold.

    When you look back to your time at Sinalco, what will you miss and/or what will you remember?

    Of course I’ll miss the good andfriendlycollaborationwithmySinalcocolleaguesbutalsowiththeotherHö-velmann employees. There are manythings I’ll remember, especially get-tingtoknowforeigncultures,evenif

    this sometimes caused my hair toturngrey.

    One of your major hobbies is travel, but you were also able to visit many partners and countries on business. What have you taken away from your travels? Are the-re still any countries where you haven’t been yet?

    You should only judge countries,peopleandculturesifyouhaveexpe-rienced them in their own surroun-dings. Showing tolerance and pa-tience,whichwasnotalwayseasyforme.I‘dstillliketotraveltomanymorecountries,althoughoverthe lastfewyearsI‘vecometotheconclusionthatGermanyisoneoftheloveliest.

    Die Getränkedose ist grün.Recycling reduziert den CO2-Ausstoß um bis zu 95%.

    Allein in Deutschland werden rund 90% aller Dosen recycelt. Das Recycling vonGetränkedosen spart bis zu 95% der Energie, die zur Neuproduktion von Metall benötigt wirdund reduziert damit auch den CO2-Ausstoß um bis zu 95%. Die Getränkedose ist weltweitdie am häufigsten recycelte Getränkeverpackung.

    Damit ist die Getränkedose nicht nur eine der umweltfreundlichsten, sondern auch eine derbesten Verpackungen. Sie ist licht- und sauerstoffundurchlässig, sie schützt die Getränke undbewahrt ihren frischen Geschmack. Sie ist leicht, unzerbrechlich und lässt sich besonders schnellkühlen. Aber vor allem macht sie Spaß. Immer mehr Verbraucher möchten das besondere„Zisch-Geräusch“ beim Öffnen einer erfrischenden Getränkedose nicht mehr missen.
