INTRODUCTION OF THE COMPANY

INTRODUCTION OF COCA COLA


In 1886, Dr. John Pemberton created the formula of Coca-Cola, a pharmacist in Atlanta, Georgia. The drink was sold ad-refreshing elixir at the fountain counter of Jacobs Pharmacy of which Dr. John Pemberton was part owner, unaware that the pharmacist had given birth to caramel colored syrup, which is now the chief ingredient of the world favorite drink. Today the white-on-red flow of Coca-Cola is familiar sight in more then195 countries. The syrup combines with the carbonate water to fuel a $16.2 billion corporation that has captured a 46% slice of the global soft drinks market. The company estimates that the drink is served more than 773 million times every day and if all Coke ever produced were filed in standards bottles and placed end to end it would wrap around the equator 21, 161 times. The story of Coca-Cola is a story of a drink and its charm with the consumed. The story of ecstasy and again that the drink has caused to those dedicated to its growth Pemberton first managed to sell and average of 9 drinks per day, though a shop called Jacobs Pharmacy, in 1891, Candler bought Coca-Cola company with the initial stock of $1,00,000. Coca-Cola was registered at the US patent office in 1893, and began selling at soda fountains for 5 cents a glass of therapeutic refreshment 1894; I got into bottles, courtesy a candy merchant Joseph Boedenharn of Mississippi. Five years later; the drink was being bottled on a regular basis under a region wise franchising system; and its first competitor Pepsi Cola, Coca-Colas first bottling plant opened in Chattanooga, Tennessee followed by another in Atlanta in 1900. The unique taste of cola was an outstanding success. Over the next two decade the number of plants crossed 1000. In a bit to difference the product, the company adopted 6.5 ounce, pale green contour bottle designed by the root glass company of Terri Haute, Indiana. Today it is an intrinsic of the brand.

The company broadened its horizons when Robert Woodruff the son of a banker who acquired to Company for $25 million in 1919, assumed charge in 1923. He began by upgrading bottling operations, brought in innovations like a six-bottle carry home carton, and gear up advertising support. It was under Wood Ruff that the brand. Known affectionately as coke by now associated itself with sportive events. By the early 1940s the brand was selling as the real thing to set itself apart from me to Colas. As a time went by the company brought out some new aerated drinks. The first one Fanta appeared in the selves in 1960. Its birth was an accident; the companys German name is an attempt to produce Coca-Cola without some key ingredients, turned out into an orange flavored drink instead. Its strategists who feared the dependence on just one put a cap on growth welcomed it. While fanta was being rolled out the company bought minute made corps. This in 1967 was combined with Duncan foods to pave way for the Coca-Cola foods. Several beverages followed the most notable being Sprite, a lemon drink developed in the late 1950 and formally launched in 1961. Coca-Cola had diversified the company into businesses and it even had a steam generator and boiler making division. Robert. C. Goizueta, Cuban born 27 years veteran took over as the Coca-Cola unlike Pepsi Company depended on a single brand. The best insurance policy that he figured was to let coke evolve to the summer slacking it with variants, even reinventing if needed. In 1982, the company launched what is now considered among the worlds most successful brand extensions Diet Coke under the leadership of Sergio Zyman, the head of us marketing. The idea was to retain the loyalty for the health conscious drinker who loved the taste but hated the calories. After this it came out with caffeine free versions of its main drinks. Yet in the US the company kept losing ground to Pepsi. Zyman, a former Pepsi

marketer argued that the correct strategy was to replace 98 year old with better tasting cola, label it as New Coke and blare the news which is exactly what the company did more than a decade ago in 1985. But when placed on the shelves it did not budge. On wide spread protest it was recalled after79 days. The company has about 100 brands in its portfolio but Coke, Fanta and Sprite account for most of its sales. In 1994, the real things coke sold over 52.5 billion liters. For the taste of it diet coke along with Coca-Cola light sold 8.5 billion liters, which makes it the worlds two top non-cola drinks sold over 6.5 billion liters each. Which sprite aimed at the independent youngster two does not care what as others drink. In 1993, Coca-Cola reentered India after 16 years long exile, four years Pepsi made its debut India. While Coke plays on brand nostalgia, Pepsi address the young crowd, which unlike a in America is a dominate ort if the population here.

SOFT DRINK MARKET IN INDIA


Today India is one of the most potential markets, with population of around 900 million people; the Indian soft drinks market was only of 200 cases per year. This was very low even compared to Pakistan and Philippines. Population and potential market are two major reasons for major multinational companies of entering India. They feel that a huge population coupled with low consumption can only lead to an increase in the soft drink market. Another increase in the sale of soft drinks in the scorching heat and the climate of India, which is suitable for high sale of soft drinks. All these factors together have contributed to a 30% growth in the soft drinks industry. If the demand continues growing at the same rate, within two years the volume could touch 1 billion cases. All these factors are the reasons for the entry two giant of the soft drink industry of the world to enter the Indian market. These two giants Pepsi and Coca-Cola, themselves share 96% of the soft drink market share. Cadburys Schweppes, Campa Cola and other soft drink brands share rest. But was the scene same 20 years ago? The answer is No. 1970 was the year of pure soft drinks Campa Cola and Parle people (Thumsup and Limca). Soft drink consists of a flavor base, sweetener and carbonated water. In general terms nonalcoholic drinks are considered as soft drinks this name soft drink was given by Americans as against hard which is mainly alcoholic. The major participants involved in the production and distribution of soft drink are concentrate and syrup producers, bottlers and retail channel. Concentrate producers manufacture basic soft drink flavors and retail channel refers to business location that tells or serves the products directly to consumers. Soft drink is not a product, which a person plans to buy before hand, but is an impulse purchase. Lots of sale depends upon the strength of merchandizing done at the point of sale.

It all begin in 1977, a change in government at the center led the exit of Coca-Cola which preferred to quit rather diluting its equity to 40% in compliance with the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act (FERA). The first national cola drink to pop up was double seven. In the meantime, Pure Drinks, Delhi on cokes exit, switched over to Campa Cola. The beginning of 1980s saw the birth of another cola drink, Thumsup, Parle the Gold Spot people, launched it in 1978-79, as Refreshing Cola. By the mid-eighties McDowells launched Thrill, and by the late eighties three was Double Cola, which entered in India market, as a NRO run outfit with its plant in Nasik {Maharastra}, in 1978 Parle, Indian soft drinks market (Share 33%) with its Gold Spot and Limca brands. Later Thumsup also started Thumsup. At the same time the threat to the Indian soft drinks was that of fruit drinks. In 1988, fruit drinks market was valued at Rs. 40 crores and grew at the rate 20%. Coca-Cola entered Indian by buying up to 69% of the 1800 crore soft drink market (i.e. 5 Parle Export brands of Thumsups,Limca, Gold Spot, Citra&Maaza). Today the scene has changed making it a direct battle between two giant Coca-Cola and Pepsi. The picture will become clearer by looking at the Indian market shares in the beverages Industry. One of the strongest weapons in Coke armory is the flexibility it has empowered its people with. In coke every employee, may he be a manager or salesmen, have an authority to take whatever steps he or she feels will make the consumers aware of the brand and increase its consumption. Thus coke believes in establishing and nurturing creditability of the salesmen and making commitment to grow business in accounts. All these factors together led to a high growth in the Indian market and constantly increasing market share.

The Flavours of Soft Drinks are currently running in the Market Coke teams along brands like: -

Coca-Cola Fanta Thumsup Limca Sprite Kinley Soda Maaza Kinley Water Diet coke

THE FUTURE OF COCA-COLA


While doing business overseas offers Coke wonderful growth opportunities it also has its own disadvantages. The economic slowdown in various overseas markets and the strong dollar had their impact on Coca-Cola revenues and bottom line in 1998. But the company optimistic about the future. M. Douglas investor, the Chief Executive Officer of the Coca-Cola Company says, In the year 1998 has been a challenging period for the Coca-Cola Company as economic environment became more uncertain in the later part of 1998, and we strongly believe that our fundamental opportunities for long term growth have not changed. As long as maximization of share holder wealth remain Cokes focus for its future is assured Goizueta had stated and proven to the world that focus on shareholder wealth does more good to the company than focus on revenues and it is not that coke does not enjoy volumes for it is worlds No. 1 soft drink manufacture. It is not content with this title and is aiming at higher volumes year after year. Surely coke will continue to grow. Point on Roberto had reduced the company basically to its trademark and the returns are so astronomical as to be off the boards. It just absolutely added a jet engine to their performance.

HISTORY OF THE COMPANY

HISTORY OF COCA COLA


The Coca-Cola Company re-entered India through its wholly owned subsidiary, Coca-Cola India Private Limited and re-launched Coca-Cola in 1993 after the opening up of the Indian economy to foreign investments in 1991. Since then its operations have grown rapidly through a model that supports bottling operations, both company owned as well as locally owned and includes over 7,000 Indian distributors and more than 1.3 million retailers. Today, our brands are the leading brands in most beverage segments. The Coca-Cola Companys brands in India include Coca-Cola, Fanta Orange, Fanta Apple, Limca, Sprite, Thums Up, Burn, Kinley, Maaza, Maaza Milky Delite, Minute Maid Pulpy Orange, Minute Maid Nimbu Fresh and Nestea Iced tea, the Georgia Gold range of teas and coffees and Vitingo (a beverage fortified with micro-nutrients).

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY INTRODUCTION


Corporate Social Responsibility is the continuing commitment by business to behave ethically and contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce and their families as well as of the local community and society at large

The same report gave some evidence of the different perceptions of what this should mean from a number of different societies across the world. Definitions as different as CSR is about capacity building for sustainable livelihoods. It respects cultural differences and finds the business opportunities in building the skills of employees, the community and the government from Ghana, through to CSR is about business giving back to society from the Philippines.

Traditionally in the United States, CSR has been defined much more in terms of a philanthropic model. Companies make profits, unhindered except by fulfilling their duty to pay taxes. Then they donate a certain share of the profits to charitable causes. It is seen as tainting the act for the company to receive any benefit from the giving.

The European model is much more focused on operating the core business in a socially responsible way, complemented by investment in communities for solid business case reasons. Personally, I believe this model is more sustainable because:

1. Social responsibility becomes an integral part of the wealth creation process - which if managed properly should enhance the competitiveness of business and maximize the value of wealth creation to society.

2. When times get hard, there is the incentive to practice CSR more and better - if it is a philanphropic exercise which is peripheral to the main business, it will always be the first thing to go when push comes to shove.

But as with any process based on the collective activities of communities of human beings (as companies are) there is no 'one size fits all'. In different countries, there will be different priorities, and values that will shape how business act. And even the observations above are changing over time. The US has growing numbers of people looking towards core business issues.

For instance, the CSR definition used by Business for Social Responsibility is:

Operating a business in a manner that meets or exceeds the ethical, legal, commercial and public expectations that society has of business.

On the other hand, the European Commission hedges its bets with two definitions wrapped into one:

A concept whereby companies decide voluntarily to contribute to a better society and a cleaner environment. A concept whereby companies integrate social and environmental concerns in their business operations and in their interaction with their stakeholders on a voluntary basis

When you review each of these, they broadly agree that the definition now focuses on the impact of how you manage your core business. Some go further than others in prescribing how far companies go beyond managing their own impact into the terrain of acting specifically outside of that focus to make a contribution to the achievement of broader societal goals.

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY OF THE COMPANY


LIVE POSITIVELY focuses on seven core areas key to our business sustainability: Beverage Benefits; Active Healthy Living; Energy Management and Climate Protection; Community; Sustainable Packaging; Water Stewardship; and Workplace.

1-WATER Our goal is to safely return to communities and nature an amount of water equivalent to what we use in all of our beverages and their production. Water is the foundation of life and of every beverage we make. But within 20 years, two-thirds of the worlds population may face severe water stress. Improving water quality and availability is vital to our business and the communities we serve. Its what drives our water stewardship commitment -- and our focus on reducing, recycling and replenishing. REDUCE We believe that our first responsibility is to manage our own water resources in our operations wisely. Water is the most important ingredient in our beverages. Water is also used for beverage manufacturing processes such as rinsing, cleaning, heating and cooling. The Coca-Cola system in India has improved its water use efficiency (water usage ratio) by over 25 percent since 2005.

RECYCLE Goal: Return to the environment, at a level that supports aquatic life, the water we use in our manufacturing operations by the end of 2010 through comprehensive wastewater treatment. While we work to reduce our water use and improve our water efficiency for each litre of product we produce, we also are focused on recycling the water we use in our operations. Our global goal is to return all the water that we use for manufacturing processes to the environment at a level that supports aquatic life. In India, all our plants are already in compliance with this requirement. Typically referred to as wastewater, water used in our system operations is recycled through a treatment and cleansing process. This ensures that the quality of the wastewater meets applicable local laws and regulations before being released back into the environment. Treated wastewater is then used within our plants for utility purposes in boilers, evaporators, chillers and outside for landscape irrigation and dust control, reducing our use of external water resources.

In our manufacturing plants, wastewater is a result of production processes, such as container-washing systems, line lubrication and equipment cleaning. The generated wastewater is fully treated at the on-site Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP) and this typically includes secondary treatment (including the collection of wastes, screening/settling of solids, biological treatment to remove nutrients and disinfection and disposal) to meet The CocaCola Company (TCCC) and the Indian Pollution Control Board (PCB) norms. It is pertinent to mention here that TCCC norms are typically more stringent than the local regulatory norms applicable to our Industry. Additionally, all the discharged waste water is measured and also used in many plants for developing green belt inside the plants. Thus, the treated waste water in large number of units complies with Zero Discharge norm of the PCB where in all the treated waste water is utilized within the plant premises for on-land discharge. The treated wastewater is also used for secondary purposes of the plant, such as toilet cleaning, floor wash etc which is in keeping with our policy to reduce water and use recycled water for secondary purposes within our plants.

REPLANISH Goal: Expand global support of healthy watersheds and sustainable community water partnerships. While we work to reduce our water use and improve our water efficiency for each litre of product we produce, we also are focused on recycling the water we use in our operations. Our global goal is to return all the water that we use for manufacturing processes to the environment at a level that supports aquatic life. In India, all our plants are already in compliance with this requirement. Typically referred to as wastewater, water used in our system operations is recycled through a treatment and cleansing process. This ensures that the quality of the wastewater meets applicable local laws and regulations before being released back into the environment.

2-PACKAGE Our vision is to advance a packaging framework in which our packaging is no longer seen as waste, but instead as a valuable resource for future use. To realize this zero waste vision, we are guided by a commitment to continuous improvement. COMPLETING THE CYCLE Packaging adds value to our products by increasing shelf life, minimizing breakage, reducing transportation and handling costs, safeguarding public health, providing product information and creating consumer convenience. But in an era of rising energy costs and scarce resources, we must work toward packaging that adds value not only to our products, but also to our environment and society. REDUCE We aim to be amongst the most efficient users of consumer-preferred packaging in the global beverage industry and in India. This begins in our package development stage, where we work to use the least amount of natural resources necessary to protect product quality and meet consumer needs. One of the ways we conserve natural resources is by light weightingtaking weight and material out of our packaging. Our packaging innovation teams are continually testing packages and looking for new ways to decrease our raw material use while also reducing costs. In India, over the last decade, we have successfully reduced the weight of our glass bottles used for packaging sparkling beverages ranging from 10% to 33% for different pack sizes .

RECOVER AND RECYCLE Another aspect of our package development process is to work with the industry associations and all others involved in the recycling value chain to recover and recycle packages after they are used. We work in partnership with local communities to help develop economically and environmentally effective solutions tailored to meet their specific needs. The majority of our packages are 100 percent recyclable and among the most recycled consumer packages in the world. This is a result of our selection of materials that have an established economic value, justifying their collection and reuse. In a bid to promote the recycling of PET packages, the Company periodically sources merchandise like T-shirts made from recycled PET and distributes it amongst its employees and business partners such that they become ambassadors of the cause .

3-CLIMATE Our goal is to grow the business, not the carbon in our manufacturing operations. Improve the energy efficiency and reduce emission of greenhouse gases in cold drink equipment. Protecting our climate together At Coca-Cola India we believe that climate change is a profound challenge that will require concerted action by government, business and civil society. We also recognize that climate change may have long-term direct and indirect implications for our business and supply chain. We have a role to play in working to use the best possible mix of energy sources while improving the energy efficiency of our manufacturing and distribution processes. Our climate protection efforts start inside the Company, with a combination of action and education in the three areas explained below, where we have the biggest climate protection opportunity: EQUIPMENT , FACILITIES AND BOILING PLANTS Cold-Drink Equipment With climate change most closely associated with burning fossil fuels, it surprises many people to learn that a portion of our emissions of greenhouse gases comes from the cooling equipment that keeps our beverage products cold. With an aim to improve the energy efficiency of our cooling equipment to reduce the emissions, The Coca-Cola Company has developed a proprietary device called energy management system (EMS). The EMS is a device that reduces energy consumption of a cooler up to 35% by allowing the temperature inside the cooler to rise (between 7C to 14C) during periods when the outlet is closed and maintains the correct cooler temperature (between 0C and 7C) during the active hours of the outlet. The EMS manages this by detecting the people movement in-front of the cooler through an infrared sensor eye & through the cooler door opening and closing

counts. The unit is totally self managing and does not require any special interference of the user. It can substantially reduce the number of service calls whilst saving on average up to 35% energy (when compared with a 24hour running cooler without EMS). Additionally, the EMS facilitates longer life to the compressor, fans and lights in a cooler, by protecting against High voltage (> 250V) & Low voltage (< 180V) supplies and saves maintenance cost of the cooler owner. All the cooling equipment of more than 250 liters capacity that we bought in 2009 were 100% fitted with EMS which is also mentioned on the cooler body (labels). We have also made 100% transition to HFC free (Hydroflourocarbons free) insulation foam for our cold drink equipment. Facilities and bottling plants Achieving energy efficiency is a continuous process and we are consistently working on fixing the basics -- fixing leaks, insulating pipes, reducing pressure and optimizing temperatures, as well as investing in efficient lighting, compressor optimization and heat recovery. At some of our bottling plants, we have converted the conventional boilers into biomass-based briquette boilers such that there are fewer emissions. TRANSPOTATION PLANT As a product, beverages have an extensive presence in India and are widely distributed. Such a distribution system requires efficient management of the distribution fleet to keep our carbon emission levels low. As a beginning and with a view to be more environment-friendly, our product delivery vehicles owned by our bottling partners in Delhi now operate on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG). CNG is a fossil fuel substitute for gasoline (petrol), diesel or propane fuel. Although its combustion does produce greenhouse gases, it is a more environmentally clean alternative to those fuels and it is much safer than other fuels in the event of a spill (natural gas is lighter than air, and disperses quickly when released). CNG is made by compressing natural gas (which is mainly composed of methane [CH4]), to less than 1% of its volume at standard atmospheric pressure.

4-WORKPLACE We foster open environments, as diverse as the markets we serve, where workplace rights are respected and people are inspired to be the best they can be.Our goal A Great Place to Work Coca-Cola India wins in the marketplace because of the pride, passion and dedication our people bring to the business of quenching the worlds thirst. We aspire to be a great place to work, where employees around the world are given opportunities to collaborate and build the worlds greatest brands, to develop their skills and expand their breadth of experience, and all while having fun in the process. WORKPLACE RIGHTS In Coca-Cola India Mission, Vision & Values, we commit to being a leader in corporate responsibility and express our aspiration to be among the world's most respected companies. Among the keys to earning that respect is maintaining world-class standards for fair and dignified treatment of all the people who work for Coca-Cola India. We communicate this commitment in our Workplace Rights Policy and Human Rights Statement. Our Workplace Rights Policy (the "Policy") serves to ensure that we apply a consistent approach to workplace rights worldwide -- as an integral part of our culture, strategy and dayto-day operations. The Policy contains our principles on freedom of association, forced labor, child labor, discrimination, work hours and wages, safe and healthy workplaces, workplace security and community and stakeholder engagement. HUMAN RIGHTS STATEMENT We are committed to earning the trust of our employees and those who do business with a set of values that represent the highest standards of quality, integrity, excellence, compliance

with the law and respect for the unique customs and cultures in communities where we operate. The reputation of The Coca-Cola Company and Coca-Cola India is built on trust and respect. Our employees and those who do business with us around the world know we are committed to earning their trust with a set of values that represent the highest standards of quality, integrity, excellence, compliance with the law and respect for the unique customs and cultures in the communities where we operate. The Coca-Cola Company and Coca-Cola India have always endeavored to conduct business responsibly and ethically. We respect international human rights principles aimed at promoting and protecting human rights, including the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights and the International Labor Organization's Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, and we actively participate in the United Nations Global Compact. Our acknowledgment of these international principles is consistent with our dedication to enriching the workplace, preserving the environment, strengthening the communities where we operate and engaging with our stakeholders to pursue progress toward these goals. In our workplaces and the communities in which we operate, we believe that a serious commitment to human rights is fundamental to the way we conduct our business. We treat our employees with dignity, fairness and respect, and we are guided by our shared values of integrity, collaboration and accountability. Our commitment is formalized and manifested through various policies including our Workplace Rights Policy, our Code of Business Conduct and our environmental governance and management systems. While these policies apply to The Coca-Cola Company and all of the entities that it owns or in which it holds a majority interest, Coca-Cola India is committed to working with and encouraging the independent bottling partners to uphold the values and practices that these policies drive.

The Coca-Cola Company and its bottling partners jointly understand that the true measure of a well-managed business is not just weather it is financially successful, but how it achieves that success. As our system does business around the world touching so many different and distinct local cultures, we know that its not enough to be profitable, we must also be responsible. This is best achieved in Coca-Colas unique business system when The CocaCola Company and bottlers work together toward our shared goals. We have expressed these shared goals in a global framework for good corporate citizenship and local accountability called Citizenship @ Coca-Cola India. The framework consists of a commitment to embrace a shared set of principles across our global system and is designed to measure and drive improvement in four areas of operation: workplace, marketplace, community and environment. We expect the individual companies that belong to our system to accept the accountability to live up to this commitment and apply these principles to every facet of their local operations. Through our Supplier Guiding Principles Program, we work with our direct suppliers to ensure that they uphold laws and regulations in the workplace and conduct their business ethically and responsibly. WORKPLACE RIGHT POLICY We value the relationship we have with our employees. We are committed to fostering open and inclusive workplaces that are based on recognized workplace human rights, where all employees are valued and inspired to be the best they can be.

TRAINING AND SKILL DEVLOPMENT Pegasus is Coca-Cola Indias flagship program to develop functional experts each year, enhancing their skills, to take on future roles within the Company. Spread over seven months, under the Pegasus program, the participants are exposed to several development opportunities; a 360 degree feedback and personalized coaching for individual personal development; academic learning sessions to develop general management skills; collaborative business projects for experiential 'live' learning and importing and exporting

learning by replicating best practices. Company and bottler associates have been a part of this program over the years. Under the aegis of the Coca-Cola University, a special program Eagles, helps source fresh young talent ahead of demand, for our franchise bottlers. Spread across six months, the Eagles program includes classroom learning, e-learning, mentoring, coaching & feedback and fieldwork. There are several other training programs conducted by the Coca-Cola University and the Company throughout the year for skill development and capability building. SUPPLIERS Our suppliers and business partners are vital to our continued success .They provide our system with materials, including ingredients, packaging and machinery, as well as goods and services. Having a sound, stable and ethical supply base is important for our growth and the footprint we leave in local communities around the world. Our suppliers provide our system with materials, including ingredients, packaging and machinery, as well as goods and services. As a Company, we have a responsibility to hold our direct suppliers and bottling partners to standards commensurate with our own operations. Our suppliers are expected, at a minimum, to conduct business in an ethical manner and comply with all applicable laws and regulations. Our Supplier Guiding Principles (SGPs) communicate our values and expectations for our bottling partners and business partners. They are the foundation of our commitment to promote the respect of labor rights among our business partners. The SGPs are a requirement for all direct suppliers of goods and services to the Coca-Cola India System and all suppliers of materials that are specifically authorized by The Coca-Cola Company for use by our suppliers. The SGPs are included or where necessary, incorporated

by reference in all supplier contracts, and many suppliers receive training to facilitate implementation. Global policy requires that suppliers be assessed for compliance at least once every three years by an authorized external auditing agency. If non-compliance is found, we provide a timeframe and offer expertise for corrective action by the facility. We also require follow-up assessments of non-compliant facilities as frequently as every six months. Suppliers have offered positive feedback on the SGPs program, including the observation that it supports the transition of their Human Resources teams from an administrative function to a professional department. Following the implementation of the new Labor Contract Law, weve also received feedback on the value of offering support and education regarding the relevant laws and compliance. We do recognize that some suppliers may view the audit process as time- and resource-intensive. To alleviate inefficiencies for suppliers who sell to ours and other companies, we are willing to review and accept results of third-party audits completed for other companies with comparable supplier codes, and we encourage our suppliers to share our audit results with their other customers. SUPPLIERS GUIDING PRINCIPLES Compliance with Applicable Laws and Standards Suppliers to The Coca-Cola Company and Coca-Cola India and suppliers authorized by The Coca-Cola Company and Coca-Cola India are required to meet the following standards, at a minimum, with respect to their operations as a whole. Laws and Regulations Supplier will comply with all applicable local and national laws, rules, regulations and requirements in the manufacturing and distribution of our products and supplies and in the provision of services. Child Labor Supplier will comply with all applicable local and national child labor laws.

Forced Labor Supplier will not use forced, bonded, prison, military or compulsory labor. Abuse of Labor Supplier will comply with all applicable local and national laws on abuse of employees and will not physically abuse employees. Freedom of Association and Collective Bargaining Supplier will comply with all applicable local and national laws on freedom of association and collective bargaining. Discrimination Supplier will comply with all applicable local and national discrimination laws. Wages and Benefits Supplier will comply with all applicable local and national wages and benefits laws. Work Hours and Overtime Supplier will comply with all applicable local and national work hours and overtime laws. Health and Safety Supplier will comply with all applicable local and national health and safety laws. Environment Supplier will comply with all applicable local and national environmental laws. Demonstration of Compliance Supplier must be able to demonstrate compliance with the Supplier Guiding Principles at the request and satisfaction of The Coca-Cola Company. These minimum requirements are a part of all agreements between The Coca-Cola Company and its direct and authorized suppliers. We expect our suppliers to develop and implement appropriate internal business processes to ensure compliance with the Supplier Guiding Principles. The Company routinely utilizes independent third parties to assess suppliers compliance with the SGP; the assessments generally include confidential

interviews with employees and on-site contract workers. If a supplier fails to uphold any aspect of the SGP requirements, the supplier is expected to implement corrective actions. The Company reserves the right to terminate an agreement with any supplier that cannot demonstrate that they are upholding the SGP requirements.

5-COMMUNITY Our vision is to advance a packaging framework in which our packaging is no longer seen as waste, but instead as a valuable resource for future use. To realize this zero waste vision, we are guided by a commitment to continuous improvement Improving quality of life The Coca-Cola system in India and The Coca-Cola India Foundation (Anandana), work with local organizations, governments and NGOs to support projects most relevant to community needs, connecting our business with communities to help them grow and prosper. Among the community projects that we do are our projects to provide access to clean drinking water in schools and communities. This includes our project to provide clean drinking water in primary schools in and around Chennai in partnership with Rotary International. In similar partnerships, we are working with UN-HABITAT to provide safe drinking water to primary schools in West Bengal and with Winrock International and Naandi Foundation to communities in Andhra Pradesh. The Winrock-Naandi partnership projects are also aimed at improving health and income of the communities in addition to improving food security. COMMUNITY DISASTER RELIEF AND REHABILITATION We feel fortunate to be able to help those in dire need, from providing bottled water to using our delivery vehicles for aid distribution and associate volunteerism. Our system is in a unique position to provide assistance during and after natural disasters, given our distribution strength and reach within communities. We feel fortunate to be able to help those in dire need, from providing bottled water to using our delivery vehicles for aid distribution and associate volunteerism. A recent example of our support to communities in the aftermath of natural disasters is our project to reconstruct primary schools in areas of Bihar which were severely affected by the floods of 2008. The rehabilitation projects were

undertaken in partnership with the NGOs World Vision India, Plan India and Save The Children and for reconstruction of classrooms. COMMUNITY AWARENESS PROGRAM Raising awareness on water conservation, water usage, hygiene and sanitation and environment protection amongst all stakeholders has been one of the priority areas for the Company. Our Company regularly participates and organizes workshops and seminars, panel discussions and interactive sessions in partnership with trade associations, NGOs and government organizations to create awareness on these important subjects. Quizzes, street plays, distribution of leaflets and brochures, screening of films, distribution of audio visual material are some of the other tools employed to engage stakeholders. A film titled Our Environment Lets Protect It jointly produced by Coca-Cola India and the NGO, BAIF is being used to create awareness on the environment and has been distributed in hundreds of schools. This effort has been recognized by the India Today Readers Digest group by giving the Company the Pegasus Gold Award. As an awareness building program, the Company and its bottling partners annually celebrate World Water Day, World Environment Day, World Earth Hour and the International Coastal Clean Up Day, thereby reaching out to thousands of stakeholders. EDUCATION Worldwide The Coca-Cola Company and it's leaders have supported education for more than 100 years. We believe that education is one of the keys to socioeconomic development. Hence we support and encourage educational programs for students of all ages. Our programs focus on supporting educational infrastructure, scholarships, business-education partnerships and other local needs.

In several communities in and around our plant operations, we are contributing towards school infrastructure construction and repair of classrooms, internet stations, computers, stationery etc. In Andhra Pradesh we partnered with the state government education department to give away meritorious scholarships to first and second ranked students in four categories (SC, ST, Backward Class and other backward caste) in all the districts of the state. The Company also conducts the Limca Book of Records Quiz for students. In 2010 the Quiz was conducted in over 3000 schools across 80 cities. We believe that such initiatives catalyze the overall development and growth of children.

6-BEVERAGE BENEFITS Our goal is to quench every thirst and every need. Provide and tailor beverages for every lifestyle, life stage and occasion based on individual needs. Offer quality products you can trust all the time. Quenching the worlds thirst Every day, in more than 200 countries around the world, people enjoy 1.6 billion servings of The Coca-Cola Company's beverages. We have a great responsibility to each and every one of these people: not only to help fulfill consumers daily hydration needs, but also to support life-enhancing experiences. Beverage Innovation Coca-Cola India is one of the leading beverage companies in India offering great tasting, quality nonalcoholic beverages to consumers. Our brands in India include Coca-Cola, Fanta Orange, Fanta Apple, Limca, Sprite, Thums Up, Burn, Kinley, Maaza and Minute Maid Pulpy Orange juice drink, the Georgia Gold range of teas and coffees ,Fanta Fun Taste and Vitingo (a beverage fortified with micro-nutrients). Our aim is to offer a beverage for every lifestyle and occasion, where it also makes sense for our long-term business growth. We focus our resources on what consumers want today and anticipating what they will want tomorrow. From the added benefits of vitamins and minerals to new ingredients, sweeteners, tastes and innovations in package sizes, we are constantly challenging ourselves to identify high-quality additions to our portfolio. Vitingo Iron deficiency is widely prevalent in India with an estimated 69% children below 5 years being deficient in Iron. 72% pregnant women and nearly 70% young women are also reported to be Iron deficient. Food fortification and supplements are a solution to this problem. Coca-Cola India has developed a nutritional beverage option Vitingo - that can address the issues of Iron Deficiency and Iron Deficiency Anemia. Vitingo is a low cost

beverage powder which contains five essential micronutrients Iron, Folic Acid, Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Zinc. In 2009 Coca-Cola India in partnership with the NGO, Bharat Integrated Social Welfare Agency (BISWA), launched a program to build awareness on micro-nutrient malnutrition (or Hidden Hunger) in the bottom of the socio-economic pyramid population in India. The two partners are working together to establish a successful income-generation model for the local communities and distribute Vitingo to the bottom-of-the-pyramid population in the state. (Gopaldas, 2002, Sheshadri, 1996 )

7- ACTIVE HEALTHY LIVING Our goal is to help people lead active, healthy lives by offering a wide variety of beverages, our focus on information and education, and our support of physical activity. Were all in this together Making a positive difference includes caring about health and well-being -- both physical and emotional. Together with our partners and stakeholders, we can play a role in helping to identify and support practical solutions that help all people achieve active, healthy, balanced lifestyles. EDUCATION We believe that we have a responsibility to inform our consumers with fact-based ingredient and nutrition information for our products so they can make beverage choices that are in line with a sensible, balanced diet and active lifestyle. We also have a responsibility to respect and support our consumers and communities with advertising and marketing that is tasteful, truthful and responsible. We now provide basic nutrition information on all our product packages and labels. Infact, all the returnable glass bottles (RGBs) that we have purchased after March 19, 2009 have nutritional labeling on the bottles itself while for bottles that have been purchased prior to this date, we provide this information on the bottle closures (crowns). In addition, we have also made a global commitment to provide front-of-packaging (FOP) energy information (per serving) on nearly all of our packaging by the end of 2011. This is based on consumer insight that tells us that they want more nutrition information in an easyto-read, at-a-glance format.

PRODUCT SAFETY & QUALITY


The global nature of our business requires that the Coca-Cola system has the highest standards and processes for ensuring consistent product safety and quality from our concentrate production to our bottling and product delivery. We measure key product and package quality attributes to ensure our beverage products in the marketplace meet Company requirements and consumer expectations. Consistency and reliability are critical to our product quality and to meeting global regulatory requirements and Company standards.

NUTRITION LABELS
A nutritionally balanced diet, along with regular physical activity, is essential for maintaining good health. All foods and beverages can fit into a healthy, balanced diet when consumed in appropriate portions and with appropriate frequency. The Coca-Cola Company and CocaCola India cares about its consumers and is committed to providing a variety of beverage products, complete with factual, meaningful and understandable nutrition information that motivates and empowers consumers to make informed dietary choices. We have made great strides in expanding the level of nutritional information on our packaging, offering consumers factual and meaningful information about our beverage products to assist them in their beverage selections. Our policy is to place nutritional information on all of our labels, where feasible. Where this is not possible, for example on recyclable glass bottles, we provide nutritional information via other means such as Company websites. We follow nutrition labeling requirements in the countries where our products are sold, and in many places, we exceed these requirements. The type and amount of information is a reflection of local regulations and consumer interest. At a minimum, our labels provide the beverage product's amount of energy (kilocalories, calories, kilojoules), protein, carbohydrate, fat, total sugars, and sodium, as well as any nutrient for which a nutrition or health claim is made. We participate in nationally tailored nutrition labeling programs in many regions and countries, including Australia, the European Union, Latin America and the United States. Nutrition Facts & Information on Packaging

We provide ingredient information and nutrition labeling to meet local regulations. In line with changing expectations and consumer and customer needs, we are voluntarily expanding our packaging activities as indicated in the following examples: Australia In 2007, we began providing per-serving caloric information on the front of product labels in Australia as part of a collaborative, industry-wide initiative and based on consultation with stakeholders and consumer groups. We now have kilojoule information on the front of product labels in Australia. United States In 2007, Coca-Cola joined the industry in providing caffeine content in addition to the other detailed nutritional information already on packaging in the United States. In 2008, Coca-Cola announced plans to place calories-per-serving and servings-percontainer information on the front of all packages for its entire U.S. beverage portfolio. Read the news release to learn more. In 2009, Coca-Cola began rolling-out new packaging with front-of-pack calorie information. Europe In Europe, we are committed to on-package Guideline Daily Amount (GDA) labeling designed to give consumers meaningful, consistent and transparent nutritional information. In addition, we have committed to putting the number of calories per serving on the front of all packaging, along with the percentage the calories represent of total recommended daily calorie consumption. On the back of packaging, we provide nutritional information for calories, sugars, total fat, sodium and fiber per serving size and per 100 mL. We have GDA nutrition labeling on all our packages in Europe. In 2009, The Coca-Cola Company announced its worldwide commitment to place energy information on the front of nearly all products and packages by 2011. We are now rolling out front-of-pack energy labeling in Mexico and the United States. Read the news release to learn more.

SWOT ANALYSIS

SWOT ANALYSIS
WHAT IS SWOT ANALYSIS? SWOT analysis is a basic, straight forward model that provides direction and serves as a basis for the development of marketing plans. It accomplishes this by assessing an organizations strengths (what an organization can do) and weaknesses (what an organization cannot do) in addition to opportunities (potential favorable conditions for an organization) and threats (potential unfavorable conditions for an organization). SWOT analysis is an important step in planning and its value is often underestimated despite the simplicity in creation. The role of SWOT analysis is to take the information from the environmental analysis and separate it into internal issues (strengths and weaknesses) and external issues (opportunities and threats). Once this is completed, SWOT analysis determines if the information indicates something that will assist the firm in accomplishing its objectives (a strength or opportunity). SWOT analysis is general technique which can be applied across diverse functions and activities, but it is particularly appropriate to the early stages of planning for a TIPD visit. Performing SWOT analysis involves generating and recording the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats relating to a given task. It is customary for the analysis to take account of internal resources and capabilities (strengths and weaknesses) and factors external to the organization (opportunities and threats).

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research methodology is a way to systematically solve the research problems. It may be understood as a science of studying how research is done scientifically. In it we study the various steps that are generally problem along with the problem behind them. It is necessary for the researcher to know not only the research methods/ techniques but also the methodology. Researchers not only need to know how much to develop certain indices or the tests, how to calculate the means, the mode, the median and the standard deviation or chi-square, how to apply particular research techniques are relevant and which are not and what would they mean and indicate and why. Researchers also need to understand the assumptions underlying various techniques and they need to know the criteria by which they can decide that certain techniques and procedures will be applicable to certain problems for the researcher to design his methodology for his problem as a same may differ from problem to problem.

RESEARCH DESIGN
The formidable problem that follows the tasks of defining the research problem is the preparation of the research product popularly known as the research design. Decision regarding what, where, when, how much, by what mean concerning an inquiry or a research study or a research design. A research design is the arrangement of the conditions for the collections and analysis of data in a manner that aim to combine relevance to research purposes with economy in procedure. In fact it is conceptual structure within which the research is conducted more explicitly, the design decisions happen to be in respect of:-

1. What is the study about?

2. Why is the study being made?

3. Where will the study be carried out?

4. What type of data is required?

5. Where can the required data found?

6. Where periods of the time will the study include?

7. What will be the sample design?

8. What techniques of data collection will be used?

9. How will the data be analyzed?

10. In what style will the report be prepared?

Generally there are three types of research i.e. Exploratory Research Descriptive Research Experimental Research

But I have adopted the Descriptive Research Methodology

Descriptive research is those which are concerned with describing the characteristics of a particular individual or of a describing the characteristics of a particular individual or of a group, such studies are concerned with specific predictions, with narration of facts and characteristics concerning individual group or individual, group or situation.

Its is conducted for the following reasons:-

1. To describe the characteristics of relevant groups.

2. To estimate the percentage of units in a given populations.

3. To determine the consumer perception.

4. For market studies, which describe the size of the market.

5. For market share studies, which determines the proportion of total sales.

6. For sales analysis studies, which describes sales by geographic reason.

7. For product usage studies.

8. For pricing studies.

9. For advertising studies.

DATA COLLECTION TOOL


After the research methodology the data is collected. The task of data collection is to check the plan, so that the researcher carefully selects the method for his/her own study. There are 2 types for collecting the data:-

1. Primary Data

2. Secondary Data

1. Primary Data

Information, which has been gathered for the first time, is called primary data. Here the source expected to have the desire information are contacted by various methods to collect data. The reputation and experience of the investigators of collecting the data results in accuracy of information collected.

There are 4 ways by which the Primary data can be collected:-

1. Observation Method

2. Interview Method

3. Questionnaire

4. Schedule

2. Secondary Data

Secondary data means data that is already available and it refers to data, which has already been collected and analyzed by someone else. Secondary data may either published data or unpublished data. The researcher must be careful in using secondary data. He/she must make a minute scrutiny because it is possible that secondary data may be inadequate or unsuitable in the contents of problem, which the researcher wants to study.

I have adopted secondary data for this project.

QUESTIONNAIRE

In this method a questionnaire is sent to the persons concerned with a request to answer the questions and return the questionnaire. The questionnaire consists of several questions printed in a pre decided order and the respondents have to answer the questions on their own.

Characteristics of Good Questionnaire:-

1. Completeness

2. Conciseness 3. Clarity 4. Cooperation of respondents 5. Careful construction

FINDING

FINDING

CONCLUSION

CONCLUSION

Every organization has its unique characteristic, its own culture, and its own problem. And special needs. Each organization has therefore its own organizations corporate social responsibility.

The Coca Cola Company aim to support sustainable development in communities Where they operate and contribute to the welfare of society.

Maximizing the efficient use of water in production facilities and to be an example in this area by improving water quality and waste management.
