Overview of the Coca Cola


History
1886 On May 8, 1886, Atlanta druggist Dr. John Styth Pemberton (former Confederate officer) invented "Coca-Cola" syrup using melted sugar, water and other ingredients. It was mixed in a 30-gal. Brass kettle hung over a backyard fire. It was marketed as a "brain and nerve tonic" in drugstores. He first "distributes Coca-Cola by carrying it in a jug down the street to Jacobs Pharmacy. For five cents, consumers can enjoy a glass of Coca-Cola at the soda fountain. This year, sales of Coca-Cola average nine drinks per day.

Frank M. Robinson, Pemberton's bookkeeper, was the person who suggested the name "Coca-Cola", which was chosen because both words actually named two ingredients found in the syrup. They were the coca leaf and the Kola nut. Robinson spelled Kola with a C to make it look better in advertising. Coca-Cola was first sold for 5 a glass at a soda fountain in Jacob's Pharmacy in Atlanta by Willis Venable.The first year's gross sales were $50 and advertising costs were $73.96. The original formula included extracts of the African kola nut and coca leaves, both strong stimulants. "Coca-Cola" was one of thousands of exotic patent medicines sold in the 1800s that actually contained traces of cocaine. 1888

NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF MODREN LANGUAGES

Internship Report Coca-Cola

In 1888, Asa Griggs Candler bought the company from Dr. Pemberton. Later that same year, Dr. Pemberton died. By 1914, Candler had acquired a fortune of some $50 million. Baseball hall of famer Cobb, a Georgia native, was another early investor in the company. 1891 Atlanta entrepreneur Asa Griggs Candler acquires complete ownership of the Coca-Cola business for $2,300. Within four years, his merchandising flair helps expand consumption of Coca-Cola to every part of the nation. In this year Coca-Cola produced its first calendar. 1893 The trademark "Coca-Cola name and script are registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Dr. Pemberton's partner and bookkeeper, Frank M. Robinson suggested the name and penned "Coca-Cola" in the unique flowing script that is famous worldwide today. Mr. Robinson thought, "the two Cs would look well in advertising." 1894 Coca-Cola began as a fountain product, but candy merchant Joseph A. Biedenharn of Mississippi was looking for a way to serve this refreshing beverage at picnics. He begins offering bottled Coca-Cola, using syrup shipped from Atlanta, during this especially busy summer. Joseph A. Biedenharn, owner of the Biedenharn Candy Company in Vicksburg, Mississippi, first bottled "Coca-Cola."

1895 "Coca-Cola is now drunk in every state and territory in the U.S." - Asia Candler. 1898

The Company outgrows its facilities and a new building is erected at Edgewood Avenue and College Streetlater to be called "Coca-Cola Place." This year, the Company enters the markets of Canada and Mexico. 1899 Large-scale bottling becomes possible when Asa Candler grants exclusive rights to Joseph B. Whitehead and Benjamin F. Thomas of Chattanooga, Tennessee, for one dollar. The contract marks the beginning of The Coca-Cola Companys unique independent bottling system that remains the foundation of Company soft-drink operations. Within 20 years, the regional bottling system will grow to include 1,000 bottlers, with operations in Cuba, Puerto Rico, Panama, the Philippines and Guam. 1903 By 1903, the use of cocaine was controversial and "Coca-Cola" decided to use only "spent coca leaves." It also stopped advertising "Coca-Cola" as a cure for headaches and other ills. 1906 Cuba and Panama become the first two countries outside the U.S. to bottle CocaCola. 1915 Around this time, bottles used by companies in the soft-drink industry are very similar. And Coca-Cola has many imitators, which consumers are unable to identify until they take a sip. The answer is to create a distinct bottle for Coca-Cola, one that anyone would recognize, even if it were felt in the dark. As a result, the Root Glass Company of Terre Haute develops the genuine Coca-Cola bottle with the contour shape now known around the world. It replaces the straight-sided bottle, giving Coca-Cola a distinct packaging advantage over the imitations.

i. Production Department

Washing First of all the bottles are washed with very care & antiseptic liquid is used to kill the germs. Checking After washing the washed bottles are checked by passing them in front of the white light. In this step it is also checked that if the bottle is cracked or fine. Filling After checking the empty bottles the bottles are passed through the fillers. In this the empty bottles are filled with coke. In the same machine the bottles are capped. Tracking Serial Number After the filling & capping the bottles are passed in front of the tracking machine which prints serial number on the neck of the bottle which assures the tracking. Checking After this the final checking takes place, the filled bottles are passed in front of the white light to see that the liquid is clear & there is nothing harmful in the bottle. Production Rate During whole of the process, a bottle takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes to pass through all the process, and when the production stops, then the last bottle sent on the conveyer belt is ready after one and a half hour. So the total production time consumes
NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF MODREN LANGUAGES

28

Internship Report Coca-Cola

about one and half hour extra. The same plant is used for filling Sprite and Fanta bottles This changing of the bottles is called Change Over, and for this purpose, the whole production is stopped, completed and then started over requires one and half hour extra time. In this way the total production time can be calculated. The filler fills about 7-8 bottles in a second which gives an average of 400 bottles a minute. So if the total production time is known, we can easily calculate the units produced during a shift or a day.

The production quantity can also be determined by another way. The total empty bottles received from the loading department are noted, then the bottles broken, taken out due to dirtiness, breakage, improper filling or free drinkage are noted at the end of the day or shift. These are totaled and subtracted from the total empty bottles. This gives the number of bottles filled during the shift. It can also be tallied with the number of filled bottles received by the loading department.

ii. Logistics Department


Logistic department is basically the combination of two departments these are logistic and shipping department. The whole transports and vehicles are arranged and maintained by logistic department. And shipping department is responsible for the maintenance of inventory of empty bottles. On the whole logistic department is consists of 35 permanent employees. And rest of the employees work on daily wages. Responsibilities of Logistics Department As I mentioned earlier logistic department is basically for the purchase and maintenance of new vehicles. For that purpose they have a workshop for heavy-duty vehicles and for cars in the factory. And for the motor cycles they made arrangement with a workshop from where employees get work done and payment will be made by the factory at the end of the month.

` Types of Vehicles in the Factory

Internship Report Coca-Cola

There are basically four major types of vehicles in the factory. These are Motor Cycles for Market Development Officers (Sales Staff) Cars for Management Vans for Loading Loader Machine Coca-Cola offers a motorbike and 60 liters of petrol per month to each Market Development officer (MDO). And the maintenance of the motorbike is also the responsibility of company. The issuance and maintenance of these motorbikes is also the responsibility of logistic department. If a new employee is employed in the sales department as MDO then marketing or sales department send a request for motorbike to the logistic department and if logistic department has any extra motorbike then they issue that one to that employee otherwise they purchase a new motorbike for that employee. Coca-Cola also offers cars for the management. Coca-Cola Gujranwala plant has approximately 20 cars for management. 1300 CC car is only allowed to BOM (Business

Operations Manager) and all departmental heads can use 1000 CC car. The issuance and maintenance of these cars is the responsibility of logistic department. Logistic department is also responsible to maintain the record of petrol consumption of

each motorbike and car. For the purpose of petrol Coca-Cola International Gujranwala Plant arranged an agreement with a petrol pump of Admore near the factory from where any employ can fill his vehicle by giving a slip which is issued by logistic department.

iii. Quality Control Department


In Coca-Cola, it is understood that the purpose of the organization is to serve customer needs, requirements, and desires. In the context of mission, the process is optimized to serve customers. Wherever possible, guidelines replace rules, empowerment to act replaces passing the challenge, and employees make the extra effort to help their customers and clients.

Coca-Cola is striving for to minimize the gap between desired and actual performance. In Coca-Cola, all levels of management are actively engaged in process management and continuous improvement. Employees have access to leaders and managers. There is a free flow of information among managers, supervisors and workers. The quality goal of Coca-cola simply stated, Zero defects in everything we do In Coca-Cola everyone understands that they are there to serve customers. Problems and issues are avoided or resolved in a cooperative fashion.

Failed products The coca cola company used his same strategies for all the products so in this way as the all the products should be successive. But it is not compulsory that the same strategy is used for all the products. There are some failed products also. These failed products of coca cola are Splash (Minute Maid) Sprite 3G

Reasons Of failure Less Advertisement


NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF MODREN LANGUAGES

Internship Report Coca-Cola

The coca cola company not takes attention on the advertisement of the Splash. The first TV commercial of splash is shown after two to three month of the launch of the splash brand. Awareness and communication The promotional strategy of these products is not up to the standard so the people in the market are less aware with these products splash and the sprite 3G. Focus on push strategy The company focuses more on the push strategy rather than the pull strategy. Because these products are new and for new products pull strategy is more effective to have. The competitive products There are more control of the competitive products in the market,. The people like their product instantly more than the own brands. .these brands are more successful have high market growth. Having more shares in the market these compotators are for splash these are sheezan and nestle and for Sprite 3G there are Mountain Dew by the Pepsi Company.

Taste and Flavor The taste and flavor of both these products are not liked by the people. According to them the taste and flavor are not so refreshing than the other brands against the other competitive brands Market growth rate is low The market growth rate of the splash and the sprite 3G is low because these are the NPD (New product development).

` Other reasons A weak positioning strategy is used.

Internship Report Coca-Cola

A less-than-optimal "configuration" of product or service attributes and benefits is selected. The advertising campaign generates an insufficient level of new product/new service awareness. Cannibalization depresses corporate profits. Over-optimism about the marketing plan leads to a forecast that cannot be sustained in the real world.

Future prospects of Coca Cola


Coca-Cola has always been a brand associated with youth and exuberance, surrounded by a positive contemporary outlook on life. The marketers behind it must have continued to do something right, as Coke remains arguably one of the most well known brands in the world. In future the coca cola have long plans. In their view the Pakistan Environment Is affordable for some high social economics products. They also want to increase their sales volume. For this purpose the company has more strong strategies for this purpose. The company will get more attentive on their competitive brands. The company will apply More Stronger product solutions More active pricing strategies More segmented distribution More stronger sales promotions

For Next year, these goals are: To increase the revenues by 20% as compared to last year. To increase the total retail customers by around 10%. To increase the market share by 5%.

Recommendations
The Coca-Cola promise and their aspirations for the 21st Century must drive their decisions and their actions. The following recommendations are made for further betterment; The company should have a team to check the fake products in the market Coca Cola Company should try to emphasis more on providing their infrastructure in the market to facilitate their customers. According to the survey, conducted by the international firm Pakistani people like little bit sweeter cola drink. So for this coca cola company should produce their product according to the local demand. Marketing team should try to increase the availability of Coke in rural areas. They should collaborate creatively with those who sell their products in the marketplace, developing relationships built on mutual success, not only from their brands, but also from their services.

They should actively cultivate a diverse, rewarding culture that encourages their people to develop to their fullest potential, assuring enjoyment and satisfaction in the Coca-Cola work environment.

They should intensely promote innovation as an explicit priority in every aspect of their business, including the structures of their business. They should consolidate resources to focus on the soft drink market and divest of other businesses such as fruit drinks They should continually operate as model business citizens, consistently shaping them business decisions to improve the quality of life in the communities where they do business.

Most of the outlets complaint about the lid of regular size bottle as there has been the problem of rust on it, so it is recommended to the Company to regular feedback from the market about the quality and distribution of product.

The job descriptions should be revised.
