CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION
Modern age is full of competition. Today only way of success is your continuous efforts towards the growing market needs and in satisfying them. It is the marketer job to know what the market speaks i.e. the ever changing needs of the customer through market research & adopt them fruitfully. It is must for all the companies to make policies according to the customers and the govt. Today to succeed for any organization has to target its customer needs, to create a culture in the organization i.e. market conscious & responsive to customer needs. Soft drinks industry has become big business in India in recent years. The soft drink business under went major change with the entry of PEPSI and re-entry of COCA-COLA in India in the late 80s when Parley with brands like Thumps, Limca & Gold spot was a clear leader. Coca-Cola took up the product line of parley in 1993-94; today both brands are the Indians favorite soft drinks. ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES An alcoholic beverage is a drink containing ethanol, commonly known as alcohol, although in chemistry the definition of an alcohol includes many other compounds. Ethanol (alcohol) is a psychoactive drug that has a depressant effect. Alcoholic beverages are divided into three general classes: Beers: The two main types of beer are ale and lager; each type has a distinct production processes. Mass-produced beer is typically aged for only a week or two after its fermentation and has an alcohol content of 4%6% AB V. Other kinds of beer may be fermented and aged for several months. Wines: Wine involves a longer (complete) fermentation process and a long aging process (months or years) that results in an alcohol content of 9%16% ABV. Sparkling wine can be made by adding a small amount of sugar before bottling, which causes a secondary fermentation to occur in the bottle.

HISTORY OF COLA
The cola industry has phenomenal possibilities for rocketing profit growth inspite of the sign of relief heaved by the manufacture at the abrupt sensational termination of coca cola monopoly the tastes of cola is by no means extinguished the coca. Cola have a status symbol to it..., generated by the sub standard, penetrated, advertising and extensive distribution network.

Total soft drink segment is growing at the rate of 10% per year still if international standard area considered the per capita consumption of three serving in rock bottom, less than even our neighbors Pakistan and Bangladesh, where it is four more as much. So with kind of a market potential coke entered in India in 1991 after the permissions of setting up Britico Food company to coke was granted by the government in Pune in 1992 the plant was established for is deducted then the bottle are taken out of the line and cleaned again or rejected.

The most important step is the mixing of drink concentrate dissolved in the soft water the sugar syrup at the same time. Carbon dioxide is passed in the drink to produce a fizz.

After the crowing of the bottle the crown contains the manufacturing data batch number and Time.

After crowing the bottle, the bottle comes again at checking screen for checking the bottle.

COKES CORPORATE VISION


For more than a century, Coke has consistently delivered the simple promise of Coca-Cola. This has enabled Coke to sustain a long trac k record of growth. Amidst all the years of success, the most pivotal moments in Cokes history came when they had to change their business dramatically. They had to do this to meet new challenges of the evolving world. But each time, Cokes predecessors sustained growth momentum because of three consistent factors: The Company remained focus on the basic promise of Coca-Cola, which has not only endured, but also indeed carried Coke. Coca-Cola has been Cokes consistent theme throughout the 115-year history.

Working with strong ideals, always striving to behave in ways consistent with the brand itself. Cokes leaders had the vision, foresight and the courage to innovate and adapt the mechanics of business to be enabled to thrive within the business conditions of each particular day.

COKES OUSTER FROM INDIA


The company left India in 1977 after the newly elected Janaty Party Government came to power at the Centre for the first time. They asked the company to divest 60 % of its business and divulge its secret Coca-Cola formula. Coke preferred to quit rather than dilute its equity to 40 per cent in compliance with the provisions of FERA.

THE RE-LAUNCH OF COCA COLA IN INDIA


Coca Cola came back to India after 16 years when it was launched on October 24, 1993, at Agra. The Godrej group, Great Eastern Shipping and the Britannia Industries Ltd, led by RajanPillai, initially wooed Coca-Cola. In March 1991, it signed an MOU with BIL and the Chandrasekhar government accepted this proposal. But relationship between the two companies turned sour over the export- oriented clause and finally on June 23, 1993, CocaCola got the permission to enter the country with a 100 per cent unit in India. On September 22, 1993, the company bought out the Parle brands.

HISTORY OF PEPSICO
Born in the Carolinas in 1898, Pepsi-Cola has a long and rich history. The drink is the invention of Caleb Bradham (left), a pharmacist and drugstore owner in New Bern, North Carolina. The summer of 1898, as usual, was hot and humid in New Bern, North Carolina. So a young pharmacist named Caleb Bradham began experimenting with combinations of spices, juices, and syrups trying to create a refreshing new drink to serve his customers. He succeeded beyond all expectations because he invented the beverage known around the world as Pepsi-Cola. Caleb Bradham knew that to keep people returning to his pharmacy, he would have to turn it into a gathering place. He did so by concocting his own special beverage, a soft drink. His creation, a unique mixture of kola nut extract, vanilla and rareoils, became so popular his customers named it "Brad's Drink." Caleb decided to rename it "Pepsi-Cola," and advertised his new soft drink. People responded, and sales of Pepsi-Cola started to grow, convincing him that he should form a company to market the new beverage. In 1902, he launched the Pepsi-Cola Company in the back room of his pharmacy, and applied to the U.S. Patent Office for a trademark. At first, he mixed the syrup himself and sold it exclusively through soda fountains. But soon Caleb recognized that a greater

opportunity existed to bottle Pepsi so that people could drink it anywhere. The business began to grow, and on June 16, 1903, "Pepsi-Cola" was officially registered with the U.S. Patent Office. That year, Caleb sold 7,968 gallons of syrup, using the theme line "Exhilarating, Invigorating, Aids Digestion." He also began awarding franchises to bottle Pepsi to independent investors, whose number grew from just two in 1905, in the cities of Charlotte and Durham, North Carolina, to 15 the following year, and 40 by 1907. By the end of 1910, there were Pepsi-Cola franchises in 24 states. Pepsi-Cola's first bottling line resulted from some less-than-sophisticated engineering in the back room of Caleb's pharmacy. Building a strong franchise system was one of Caleb's greatest achievements. Local Pepsi-Cola bottlers, entrepreneurial in spirit and dedicated to the product's success, provided a sturdy foundation. They were the cornerstones of the Pepsi-Cola enterprise. By 1907, the new company was selling more than 100,000 gallons of syrup per year. Growth was phenomenal, and in 1909 Caleb erected a headquarters so spectacular that the town of New Bern pictured it on a postcard. Famous racing car driver Barney Oldfield endorsed Pepsi in newspaper ads as "A bully drink...refreshing, invigorating, a fine bracer before a race." The previous year, Pepsi had been one of the first companies in the United States to switch from horse-drawn transport to motor vehicles, and Caleb's business expertise captured widespread attention. He was even mentioned as a possible candidate for Governor. A 1913 editorial in the Greensboro Patriot praised him for his "keen and energetic business sense."

Pepsi-Cola enjoyed 17 unbroken years of success. Caleb now promoted Pepsi sales with the slogan, "Drink Pepsi-Cola. It will satisfy you." Then came World War I, and the cost of doing business increased drastically. Sugar prices see sawed between record highs and disastrous lows, and so did the price of producing Pepsi-Cola. After seventeen years of success, Caleb Bradham lost Pepsi Cola. He had gambled on the fluctuations of sugar prices during WORLD WAR I, believing that sugar prices would continue to rise but they fell instead leaving Caleb Bradham with an overpriced sugar

inventory. Pepsi Cola went bankrupt in 1923.In 1931, the Loft Candy Company Loft president, Charles G. Guth who reformulated the popular soft drink, bought Pepsi Cola. In 1940, history was made when the first advertising jingle was broadcast nationally. The jingle was "Nickel Nickel" an advertisement for Pepsi Cola that referred to the price of Pepsi and the quantity for that price. "Nickel Nickel" became a hit record and was recorded into fifty-five languages. In 1965 Pepsi-cola company and Frito-Lay, Inc. merged which result in the formation of today know PepsiCo, Inc.

2.3 MARKET SHARE IN INDIA


These two soft drink companies (Coca cola & Pepsi) acquire the major share of the soft drink Industry and always remain in the war to get the majority of market share with each other. These companies always be pioneer in using various innovative technology and method to become the market leader. These companies present the world new innovative ways of doing the marketing and how take advantage of various opportunities and how to use your strength in a better way. In India currently colas (carbonated soft drinks) products comprises 61% and non-cola segment constitutes 36% of the total soft drink market whereas 2% is covered under other various drinks like apple juice, cold coffee, cold tea etc.

2.4 OPPORTUNITY IN INDIAN MARKET


As in India, around 120 billion litres of beverage is consumed every year, of which only 5 percent are in packaged segment and also if we compare per head consumption of soft drink in India to America it is 6 is to 700. So looking at these aspects we can say that there is lot of scope for these two soft drink giant in India to expand their market as the stakes are huge in Indian market.

FIGURE 1

OBJECTIVE
The objective of my training is survey in SABZIBAGH and DANAPUR (A&B Routes) in order to find out Market Share Of Coca Cola And Channel Of Distribution it means we have to find that what is the market share of coca cola in the market and what is the market share of his competitor Pepsi and we have to find that customer take coca cola brand from company vehicle or from dealer.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

TECHNIQUES FOR SALES PROMOTION


1) Product availability 2) 100% rich 3) Good relation 4) Warm display 5) Cold display 6) Proper singer 7) Rich at one time 8) Fulfill your commitment

1) Product availability It means all the flavors of coca cola should be available at one time. By which customer can able to give any flavors to the consumer and can give the satisfaction.

2) 100% rich - it means. Company top management always should always worry about the quality of all the brands. If any organization wants to service in the market and wants to better image then quality play a very integral role so for sales promotion quality should by 100% good. 3) Good relation companys executive, sales man should make good relation from dealer, whole seller and retailer. There is only 20% brand loyal person. Remaining 80% impulse selling is going on. It means in India in cold drinks line which ever brand consumer see first of all that brand will demanded by user. The selling is high that particular brand. So i want to say that if. The executive relations will goods from dealer, whole seller retailer. Then he will arrange coke brands on front of shop by which coke selling will improve. 4) Worm display

5) Cold display 6) Proper shin age - proper shin age also play a key roll in more selling.

7) Fulfill our commitment if executive promise to the customer of any type. Then executive shovel fulfill his promise, such as. Executive say that to the retailer if you will sell 1000 carrot in this month then i will give you a coke fridge. If retailer has sold out 1000 carrot in the a month then executive should fulfill is commitment. By this manner selling will also improve.

METHOD ADOPTING IN THE RESEARCH

PRIMARY METHOD

Adopted the personnel personal interview method in this method we made a questioner with this questioner we used to go in the market and see the customer one by one.

First of all we used to give the introduction with smile enthusiastic and with proper eye contact and demand to give 2 or 3 minute to fulfill his questioner and then after we started to put the questioner at the retailer and completed the questioner. (i) (ii) Questionnaire Method Personal Interview

SECONDARY METHOD

This method is most appropriate method for collecting the data. By this method researcher get the actual report

DATA COLLECTION
Data collection took place with the help of filling of questionnaires. The questionnaire method has come to the more widely used and economical means of data collection. The common factor in all varieties of the questionnaire method is this reliance on verbal responses to questions, written or oral. I found it essential to make sure the questionnaire was easy to read and understand to all spectrums of people in the sample. It was also important as researcher to respect the samples time and energy hence the questionnaire was designed in such a way, that its administration would not exceed 4-5 minutes. These questionnaires were personally administered. The first hand information was collected by making the people fill the questionnaires. The primary data collected by directly interacting with the people. The respondents were contacted at shopping malls, markets, places that were near to showrooms of the consumer durable products etc. The data was collected by interacting with 200 respondents who filled the questionnaires and gave me the required necessary information. The respondents consisted of housewives, students, businessmen, professionals etc. the required information was collected by directly interacting with these respondents.

THE SAMPLE PLAN AND SAMPLE SIZE

TARGET POPULATION
It is a description of the characteristics of that group of people from whom a course is intended. It attempts to describe them as they are rather than as the describer would like them to be. Also called the audience the audience to be served by our project includes key demographic information (i.e.; age, sex etc.).The specific population intended as beneficiaries of a program. This will be either all or a subset of potential users, such as adolescents, women, rural residents, or the residents of a particular geographic area. Topic areas: Governance, Accountability and Evaluation, Operations Management and Leadership. A population to be reached through some action or intervention; may refer to groups with specific demographic or geographic characteristics. The group of people you are trying to reach with a particular strategy or activity. The target population is the population I want to make conclude an ideal situation; the sampling frames to matches the target population. A specific resource set that is the object or target of investigation. The audience defined in age, background, ability, and preferences, among other things, for which a given course of instruction is intended. I have selected the sample trough Simple random Sampling

SAMPLE SIZE:
This involves figuring out how many samples one need. The numbers of samples you need are affected by the following factors: Project goals How you plan to analyze your data How variable your data are or are likely to be How precisely you want to measure change or trend The number of years over which you want to detect a trend How many times a year you will sample each point How much money and manpower you have

SAMPLE SIZE
I have targeted 60people in the age group above 15 years for the purpose of the research. The target population influences the sample size. The target population represents the BIHAR regions. The people were from different professional backgrounds.

The details of our sample are explained in chapter named primary research where the divisions are explained in demographics section.

TECHNIQUE INVOLVED IN DEFINING PROBLEM

MARKET SHARE OF COCA COLA IN THE MARKET


In Present situation of Coca Cola is very good in the market. The company have good market share app. 67% and remain 33% market share covered by his close competitor Pepsi in this Area.

Last years situation was not that. Last years market share of coca cola and pepsi was app. Same in the market but in this year company adopted new strategy and provided good service and provide more and more customer satisfaction company top management have taken a good decision in this year.

LIMITATIONS

The HIGHWAY

SURVEY being conducted as the project work under Hindustan Coca-Cola

Beverages Pvt. Ltd. Mainly dealt with the following limitations:-

1.

The survey report that was conducted had a pre-defined boundation of interviewing the retail outlet owners. Its based on simple observational analysis which may lead to deflection at the time of conclusion arrival.

2.

The survey sheet being designed had a limited scope of primary data coverage only. It did not take into consideration the other availability of supply and Co ground on which it decided upon the provision of distribution of the promotional accessories.

During the entire survey the retailers willingness for acquiring the accessories in accordance with the schemes followed with them could not be noticed. This could be one of the reasons of the non-appropriate promotional efforts in making an awareness among the customers

FIGURE 4

CHAPTER 3 SEGMENTATION OF MARKET

A market segment consists of a group of customers who share a similar set of needs and wants. Rather than creating the segment the marketers task is to identify them and decide which one to target. Leading soft drink companies Coca-Cola and Pepsi follow the similar segmentation strategy for target marketing.

3.1 MASS MARKETING


However in some of its popular product both the companies follow the mass marketing strategy. In this type of segmentation, companies target the whole market and not any particular segment of the population.

3.2 TARGETED MARKETING


Although the targeted group of the company is the whole population, they want to earn more revenue from a segment than their other revenue generator sources. For this, they recognize following bases for segmentation

3.2.1 GEOGRAPHICAL
3.2.1.1 REGION Both companies treat hot countries such as Asia, Middle East and African differently in comparison to cold countries. As in tropical countries, consumption of soft drinks is 70% in summer and 30% in winter season while in EUROPEAN countries its consumption is almost uniform. So soft drink companies prefer different marketing strategies in Asian and European countries. In countries like India and Pakistan, these companies invest huge resources in the season of summers, and their target area is domestic users, restaurants, school and college canteens and even rural chaupals. While in winter season their target is mainly party users and high-income group consumers.

3.2.1.2 RURAL VS. URBAN MARKET Coca-Cola Company is one of the first global majors to have spotted the potential spin offs from the countrys rural market. Population of Rural sector is more conscious more about the price whereas Population of Urban sector is more conscious about the quality and brand name of the product. so Coca cola and PepsiCo in Year 2002 bring the 200 ml bottle at Rs.5 specifically targeted at the rural sector so that soft drink can take place of the local drink like lemon, sugarcane juice and Tea etc. Both the companies Coca-Cola and PepsiCo have adopted different marketing strategy for rural and urban areas

3.2.2 DEMOGRAPHIC SEGMENTATION


3.2.2.1 AGE India is considered to be a young country i.e. average age of Indian population is less 38 years. Thus targeting young generation can be a beneficial marketing strategy for soft drink companies. In fact this is the case, all the major brands like Pepsi, coca cola, and thumps up, mainly target younger generation in India. In Europe, as average population is older than Asian countries, Coca cola targeted the older generation of the population. Similarly in USA, Pepsi targeted the generation X (younger generation) as they comprises majority of the population and they positioned Pepsi in the mind of youth that Pepsi is for the youth 3.2.2.2 GENDER Gender based segmentation is very important. As taste of male and female is different. Lets take the example of coca cola, thumps up is promoted as masculine soft drinks while coca cola and Fanta are having light taste and mainly targeted for loving birds, ladies, and children. Same example is available in Pepsi, mirinda orange flavor is popular among ladies, girls, and children.

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. Rest is shared by Cadburys Schweppes, Campa Cola and other soft drink brands. 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 (Thumps up and Limca). Soft drink consists of a flavor base, sweetener and carbonated water. In general terms non-alcoholic 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 to dilute 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, Thumps up, Parle the Gold spot people, launched it in 1978-79, as Refreshing Cola. By the mid-eighties Mc Dowells launched Thrill, and by the late eighties there was Double Cola, which entered in India market, as a NRO-run out fit with its plant in Nasik { Maharastra }, in 1978 Parle, Indian soft drinks market (share 33%) with its gold spot and Limca brands. Later Thumps Up also started Thumps Up. 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 corers and grew at the rate 20%.

Coca-Cola entered Indian by buying up to 69% of the 1,800 corer soft drink market { i.e. 5 Parle Export brands of Thumps Ups 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 India market shares in the beverage 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 salesman, 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 salesman 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.

COMPETITIVE ARENA
The soft drink market all over the world has been witnessing a neck to neck battle between the two major players, Coca-Cola and Pepsi since the very beginning. The thirst quenchers are trying hard to have the major chunk of the pie of carbonated soft drink market. Both the players are spending their energies in building capacity, infrastructure, promotional activities etc. Coca-Cola being 11 years older than Pepsi has dominated the scene in most of the soft drink markets in the world and enjoying leadership in terms of market share. But the Coca-Cola people are finding it hard to keep away Pepsi, which has been narrowing the gaps regularly. The two are posing threats to each other in every nook and corner of the world. While Coca-Cola has been earning most of its bread and butter through beverage sales, Pepsi has a multi products portfolio with some portion from the same business. The two warriors are face to face once again here in India with different strategies and tactics to attack the rival. Coca-cola is focusing upon the joint ventures with the existing bottlers { fobo } franchise owned bottling operations to enhance its control on manufacturing and marketing of its products range and attain the quality standards of its class. Countering it Pepsi has taken the battle in its own hands by floating as investment of $ 95 billion to set Pepsi Company. India holdings, as subsidiary for {cobo} company owned bottling operations. Both the companies are following different path to reach the same destiny i.e. to fetch the bigger portion of aerated soft drink market. Both consider India a huge potential market, as per capita consumption here is a mere 3 serving annually against the world average of 80. Therefore, they are putting in their best efforts to woo the Indian consumer who has to work for 1.5 hours to buy a bottle of soft drink. In comparison to the international norms minutes, a major hurdle to cross over for both the athletes for getting no.1 position comparison to the inter. Coca-cola is well set with its 53 bottling sites through out the country giving it an edge over competition by processing a well-built bottling and distribution set-up. On the other hand, Pepsi, with two more years in india, has been able to set an image of a winner in India and has been able to get the pulse of the India soft drink market. The soft drink giants are leaving on stone unturned and her for the long terms.

Coca-cola has been penetrating the market through its wide product range with a determination to change consumption pattern of soft drink in India. Firstly, they upgraded the whole industry by introduction 300 ml bottles, which in turn had given the industry a booming growth of 20% as compared to the earlier 5%. They want to develop a coca culture here and are working on a strategy to offer soft drink in every possible package. In coca-cola camp, the idea of competition has not come from Pepsi, but from the other beverages such as tea, coffee, nimbu pani, water etc. Pepsi is quite aggressive in its approach to Indian consumer. They are desperately working on the strategy to be winners in the hot cola war between two big barons. According to Pepsi philosophy, its the madness that encourages executive to think, to conjure up those creative tactics to knock the fizz out their competition. Pepsi had plumbed a large on the visibility of its blue red and white logo. They have been going with aggressive marketing by putting Amir Khan, Akshay Kumar and their advertisement to endorse their brand, the role models for its targeted consumer the teenagers. They have increased the fizz in the market place by introducing the dispensers called fountain Pepsi and has been enjoying a lead over its rival there. Coca-cola on the other hand, has been working on the saying slow and steady wins the races side by retailing to every more of its competitor. They have procured the shield of thumps up with a handsome market share in Indian soft drink market. Countering Pepsis international commercial that used two chimpanzees to cock a snoop at coke, thumps up come with the ad line, dont be Bandar, and taste the thunder. Also thumps up has been positioned now very near to that young image of Pepsi and giving it a though time. These cool merchants have put everything on fire. It coke got the status of the official drink of wills. World cup, Pepsi blushed as nothing official about it. As thumps up projected as saaree jahan se achcha Pepsi was passionate enough with freedom to be and now the yeh dil mange more when thumps up came with thunder blast, the other offered Pepsi stuff card. If red is meant for coke, Pepsi has chosen to be blue.

COKES MARKETING STRATEGIES


Coke decides on its marketing strategies at a national level and lends them a local flavor. For example, while festival mood plays a strong role in marketing, it is activated for Durga Puja in Calcutta, Dandiya in Gujarat, etc., Coke has its focus on the youth market in India.

As a first step toward catching the attention of the youth, coke signed on cricket heroes Saurav Ganguly and Javagal Srinath. It slowly started talking about youth passions like cricket, films, festivals and food. Soon the advertisements started giving the message, Eat Cricket, Sleep Cricket, Drink only Coca-Cola And now it has started modifying film hits to frame catch lines that appeal to the youth. This particular strategy has worked well for coke. Coke is focused on distribution to ensure that its products are within customers reach. And it saves its focus has begun to pay it dividends. As per mid-1998 figures coke is selling as many bottles in the hinterland of Punjab as it does the four metros.

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, This past year 1998 has been a challenging period for the Coca-Cola Company as economic environment became more uncertain in the later part of 1998, 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.

COCA COLA GLOBALIZATION STRATEGIES

The coca-cola company is global player and approximately 70 % of its volume and 80 % of its profit come from outside the United States of America. Although it was perceived as a standardized brand across the world, coca-cola had been quietly fine turning its international marketing strategies to suit the needs of individual national markets. Only the brand coca-cola, sprite and fanta were marketed globally. In Latin America and Europe, where a heavy consumer preference existed for lemon lime and orange sodas. Coke had developed a wide range of formulations and flavors to cater the needs of different countries. In ei salvador and venezuela, a version of fanta called fanta kolita a cream soda type of drink became extremely popular. Similarly, in indonesia coke had been selling pineapple and banana limca, maaza and thumps up in 1993.

A 100 YEARS OF THE CURVY GLASS BOTTLE OF COCA COLA


Coca-Cola Company marks a mile stone on Wednesday, 24th March 1899 Chattanooga; Tenn. where its first bottling plant was started 100 year ago by two men struck one of the most lucrative business deals in US history.

Joseph whitehead and benjamin thomas offered coca-cola company owner asia candler a dollar for the right to bottle soft drinks in 1899. Today 1 billion soft drinks are sold each day in more than 200 countries around the world.

Candler had purchase what would become the cola company for $2,300 eight years earlier from john pemberton, an atlanta phamacist who astonished the world.

Candler though the bottling venture would never succeed, but he signed the contract with white head and thomas any way, and the rest is history, bob lovell, vice president of marketing for coca -cola bottling company. United inc., said in telephone interview from chattanooga.

Lovell said thomas had seen cuban fields hand drinking pina fria a pineapple beverages, from bottles while he was Stationed in Cuba during Spanish American war. When he returned to Chattanooga, he decided to pitch the idea of bottle soft drinks to coke, which was then sold only as a fountain beverage. it occurred to him that coca-cola in bottles would be very popular, Lovell said, Mr. Candler did not see any future in it because the containers were not sound, but thats how it all came about. Thomas and whitehead promised to pay one dollar for the right to bottle coca-cola, but legend has it that no money changed hands.

COKES BOTTLING STRATEGIES


In the soft drink business the bottlers are responsible significant extent for ensuring the availability of the products. Bottlers are supplied with concentrate to which they add aerated water and bother ingredients before packing and sealing either cans or bottles. Bottlers play a strategic role in the success of soft drinks companies and this was not far from Goizuetas mind.

In 1986 the company merged some of its company owned bottling operations with two large ownership groups that had been put up for sale. All these bottling activities were combined to from its own subsidiary Coca-Cola Enterprises (CCE) to handle bottling operations. The Coca-Cola Company took 49 percent equity stake in Coca-Cola Enterprises enabling it to retain its own balance sheet.

DISTRIBUTION IN THE COCA-COLA SYSTEM


Getting Products to Market One of the values of the coca-cola system is presence that coca-cola should exist everywhere. In the words of former CEO-India operations Richard Nicholas, Our goal is to have coke available within an arms reached of desire. To fulfill this goal, coca-cola not only produces products, but also has an effective system to distribute them all over India. Distribution Distribution sales + delivery + merchandising + local account management. Distribution of Cokes products includes the activities of sales, delivery merchandizing and local accounts management. These are two major types of distribution systems:(i) Direct and Indirect In direct distribution, the bottler partner direct control over the activities of sales, delivery, merchandizing and local account management.

In indirect distribution, an organization which is not a part of the coca-cola system has control of one or more of the distribution elements (sales, merchandizing and local accounts managements).

With direct distribution there are two types of sales:Advanced sales and conventional sales.
In conventional sales, all the distribution activities (Sales, Delivery, Merchandizing and Local Accounts Management) are performed by the same persons. In advanced sales, sales and delivery are performed by different people within the coca-cola system.

Difference between a customer and a consumer. a consumer is some one who drinks coca-cola products. A customer is a business location which sells or serves coca-cola products to consumers.

Merchandizing
One the products are delivered to the customers they are promoted at the point-of-purchase to maximize the companys sales opportunities, merchandizing involves looking at the presentation of the products through the eyes of the consumers. It is an on-going process that help the company present its products properly to the consumers in the market place for instance, is the display attractive? Are the product neatly organized.

Presenting the products


Coca-cola presents its products for sale in four different ways. They are as follows: Secondary display Coolers Vending machines Post mix / pre mix

Interviewing is an art and one learns it by experience. However, the following points may be kept in view by an interviewer for eliciting the desired information: (1) Interviewer must plan in advance and should fully know the problem under consideration. He must choose a suitable time and place so that the interviewee may be at ease during the interview period. For this purpose some knowledge of the daily routine of the interviewee is essential.

(2)

Interviewers approach must be friendly and informal. Initially friendly greetings in accordance with the cultural pattern of the interviewee should be exchanged and then the purpose of the interview should be explained.

(3)

All possible effort should be made to establish proper rapport with the interviewee; people are motivated to communicate when the atmosphere is favourable.

(4)

Interviewer must now that ability to listen with understudying respect and curiosity is the gateway to communication, and hence must act accordingly during the interview. For all this, the interviews must be intelligent and must be a man with self-restraint and self discipline.

(5)

To the extent possible there should be a free-flowing interview and the questions must be well phrased in order to have full cooperation of the interviewee. But the interviewer must control the course of the interview in accordance with the objective of the study.

(6)

In case of big enquiries, where the task of collating information is to be accomplished by several interviewers, there should be an interview guide to be observed by all so to ensure reasonable uniformity in respect of all salient points in the study.

SALESMEN
Conventional Route Salesmen carries ready stocks in vehicles and sells it to retailers on his route. Characteristics of conventional routes: Salesman visits the outlets without a proper PJP Has the responsibility of driving which includes following traffic rules , finding place to place to park in congested market places , sell the products And collect cash & glass. Communicates schemes and handles cash himself which given him the opportunity to manipulates with discounts. Salesman is un-educated, with his primary qualification being a driving license. Very low vehicles capacity utilization. Companys span of control till distributor SKUs loaded on truck is only an estimate leading to shortage in brand/packs in the market.

WHAT IS PRE-SELL?
Pre-sell A selling technology in which the selling process has two distinct parts: Generating order selling the order and delivering the pre-sold order .It segregates the front-end and back-end process of selling.

Works on a proper beat with a defined PJP. A pre-seller focuses on taking orders in advance after activating the outlet .Therefore eh has dedicated time for effectively selling schemes and promotions and Carrying out his executing an outlet responsibility.

Back-end activities like invoicing, delivering stocks, collecting cash & glass are carried out by others. Delivery vehicles are loaded as per the orders, leading to very high capacity utilization & negligible shortage of brand/pack to the retailer. Company gets control over retailer. Retailer is sure that hes getting the complete discount. Higher Distribution ROI.

WHY PRE-SELL?
Improved execution Reduced manpower through better utilization of MD resources Increased vehicle utilization (90%+) Reduced costs Improved BPPC Control-Focus on profitable packs and right BPPC

REQUISITES FOR LAUNCHING PRE-SELL


1. DAS operation is a must.

2.

EDS/outlet list by current route/salesman to be prepared with RED outlets marked.

PRINCIPLES
1. Pre-Seller can be a current Route salesman or a market developer. 2. All pre-sellers are hired by HCCB & paid through a 3rd party. 3. Pre-seller will be responsible for: RED outlets = Execution + Volume. Non RED outlets =Volumes

4. Depending on the town/area/locality, pre-seller will be allocated two/three beats each, with a frequency of 3x/2x per outlet.
5. Will cover 30 outlets in one beat using Beat Planning Format 6. Pre-billed orders leave the depot/distributor go down. 7. Pre-sell to work on specific geography rather than specific outlets.

IMPLEMENTING PRE-SELL METHODOLOGY RE-Organizing the routes


1. List all outlets. The listing will provide all the necessary information. 2. Identify outlets that should be on Pre-sell beats & form geographical clusters. 3. Convert these clusters into Pre-sell beats , using the beat planning format 4. Prepare walking order Route Plan for Pre-sellers for the beats assigned to him. 5. And Remember to ensure: One Pre-sell beat should have 30-35 outlets. Check available time through the beat planning format.

ASSIGNING MANPOWER
For Pre-sell we need the following: 1. Pre-Seller for generating the order and market execution.

There will be only one cader called PRE-SSELLER which is either salesman or MD converted to this role

2. Drivers (delivery salesman) & helpers for supplying orders. 3. MDs for executing RED outlets on conventional routes. 4. For DSD one person at depot to take orders from Pre-sellers and billing.

BUILDING BACK-END SUPPORT


1. DELIEVERY PROCESS 1 cluster of 3-4 pre-sellers. Volume & no. of outlets for every cluster will be derived.

2. VEHICLES Collect and analyses data related to vehicles utilization over a period of 6-8 months after Pre-sell is launched. Re-align the fleets as per the analysis.

TRAINING OF PRE-SELLERS
Training for MD, Pre-sellers must cover how to take order, and suggestive selling after executing the outlet. Training for salesman Pre-sellers must include how to execute an outlet before taking orders through suggestive selling. Training will be first organized for MD converted Pre-sellers. The Salesman converted Pre-sellers will be trained later on.

PHASING OUT THE ROUTES/DISTRIBUTORS FOR LAUNCH


Communicating about Pre-sell in the RIGHT. Do not encourage Pre-sellers to initiate talk about Pre-sell with retailers because they not be able to handle queries well. STLs/S.Trainers / ASMs / ACDM MUST accompany Pre-sellers during the launch. This should be the way forward for at least all important markets / retailers to reduce chances of resistance from the trade. Plan the phasing as per the number of STLs / trainers you have.

MEASURING PRE-SELLERS PERFORMANCE


Performance to be measured on following parameters: RED scores of a pre-sellers, Pre-pre-sell & Post-pre-sell. This needs to be checked to ensure that in course of pursuing volume targets; market execution is not left out which is very important key to our business. Volume achievements & growths vs. targets. Productivity.

No. of bills cut in a week vs. potential Formula-Actual bills cut per week/ (No. of retailers X3)

CAUTION
1. There might be cases where in some retailers return stock due to various reasons : Does not have money. Father gave the order but son present at shop during delivery of stocks. Estimated the order wrongly now wants to change the stock.

But the world of caution is that please dont move back to conventional route 2. Make deliveries through clubbed orders and do not allocate a vehicle for every MD. Even if that is done in the beginning, swap the salesman.

CHAPTER 3

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGTH
Company product having a good brand name and trade mark. So that there is no such problem for convenes the user. Being a franchise company product trade mark. Thats why its scope is worldwide.

Coca cola capturing near about 69% market in cold drinks line remaining 31% captured by its main competitor Pepsi. The reason behind that good supply and its all flavor like Thumsup, Limca, Fanta, Maaza and Sprite also asked by the user in Sahibabad Area.

Coca Cola good Brand Image not only in India rather all over the world. Thats why there is no need of Advertisement.

Company marketing policy is consumer oriented by doing mentioned M.R.P. and manufactured date.

Company having expert management so that company can provides better goods & service for the ultimate user.

WEAKNESS
The main weakness of the company is that company is not in position of provide all flavors to the customer daily or at a one time.

Customer is not happy from company marketing policy. He wants company will start special discount program or increase maximum retail price.

Most of the retailers problem is that no. company person comes at the shop for listening the problem.

Company top management not declare the scheme before one or two days. Thats why scheme catalogue not prepared by the lower level management. In this way retailers are not satisfy for company policy.

Company management is not doing any thing for retailer. If management is not provide any relief then he will increase M.R.P.

OPPORTUNITY
Company can increase his product selling by increasing plant capacity and manufacturing capacity.

Being a seasonal selling product provide all the flavor to the customer in hot session very necessary. It is the opportunity for the company.

By providing better goods & services company can increase his market share.

In present now the competitors are very less so that company can compromise its main competitor Pepsi and can take maximum profit.

THREAT
Company should do something for customer interest. Providing beneficial scheme and good relation to customer other wise its other competitor will develop and they will capture its market. Cold Drinks selling is very much depend on customer or retailer so that retailer is not happy than sale can be effected in future.

In this time only two or three competitor are existing in the market. In the future the competitor can increase. So that company should prepare some future plan for maintaining its market share.

Some domestic competitor can develop in the market. Company should prepare long term future plan for permanently existing in Host Country.
