INTRODUCTION Coca-cola HISTORY Type: Public
Gr iggs Candler Founded: 1892 by Asa Griggs Headquarters : Atlanta, Georgia, USA Industry: Beverage Products Beverages: Web site: www.cocacola .com Origin of the product:
Dr. John Stith Pemberton for the first time produced the syrup for Coca-Cola on May 8, 188 6 The history of the Beverages industry started when Atlanta, Georgia druggist John Stith Pemberton invented coca wine called Pemberton¶s French Wine Coca in 1884.
He was inspired by the formidable success of French Angelo Mariani¶s coca wine, Vin Mariani to compete with the many patent medicines and cure - all elixirs of that time. His company recommended reco mmended it for the relief of hangovers headaches, menstrual pains, and a host of o f other problems. One warm summer day Pemberto n took some syrup down to will is venerable at Jacob¶s Drug Store in Atlanta. An ounce of o f the mixture was put into a glass, which was then filled with water and ice, creating the WORLD¶S first Coca-Cola Coca-Co la
Origin of the company: The following year, when Atlanta and Fulton County passed Prohibition legislation, Pemberton began to develop a non-alcoholic version of the French Wine Coca. He named it Coca-Cola, Co ca-Cola, because it included the stimulant coca leaves from South America and was flavoured using kola nuts, a source of caffeine. Pemberton ran the first first advertisement for the beverage on May 29 that year in the Atlanta Journal. In 1887, while suffering from an o ngoing addiction to morphine, Pemberton sold a stake in his company to Asa Griggs Candler, who incorporated it as the Coca Cola Corporation in 1888. In the same year, Pemberton Pe mberton sold the rights a second time to three t hree more businessmen: J.C. Mayfield, A.O. Murphy, and E.H. Bloodworth. Meanwhile, Pemberton¶s alcoholic son Charley Pe mberton began selling his own version of the product. Three versions of Coca-Cola Coca-Co la ² sold by three separate businesses ² were on t he market. When the United States St ates entered World War II, The Coca-Cola Company began providing free drinks for soldiers of the United States Army. The United St ates Army permitted Coca-Cola employees to enter the front lines as ³Technical Officers´ where they operated Coke¶s Co ke¶s system of providing refreshments for soldiers Coca-Cola set up bottling plants in several locat ions overseas to assure the drink¶s availability to soldiers, setting the stage for the co mpany¶s post-war overseas expansion. The popularity of the drink d rink exploded as American soldiers returned home from the war with a taste for the drink.
Before the United States entered World War II, the difficulty of shipping Coca-Cola concentrate to Germany and its occupied states led to the creation of a new drink by a Coca-Cola employee, Fanta. Fanta¶s origins date back to World War II when Max Keith, who managed Coca-Co la¶s operations in Germany during the war, ran out of the ingredients for Coke, which could be supplied only from the United States. St ates. Keith resorted to producing a different soft drink, Fanta, which proved to be a hit, and when Coke took over again after the war, it adopted the Fanta Fa nta brand as well. The German Fanta K/are Zitrone (³Clear Lemon Fanta´) variety became Sprite, another of the company¶s bestsellers In the 1930s, Robert W. Woodruff became president of the Coca-Cola Co mpany, presiding over the drink and its destiny till t ill his death in 1985. Although he eve ntually stepped down from his post due to stress, he retained control co ntrol over the company despite holding ho lding positions with an ostensibly low profile. The headquarters of Coca-Cola, now listed by fortune as one of the 50 top corporations in the United States, is still in Atlanta, Georgia. The actua l sale and distribution of that magic elixir which, needless to say, on longer contains cocaine - is handled largely by a number of independent bottlers. These bottlers buy syrup, mix it with carbonated water, and distribute it to retailers in their area. The number of reta ilers who sell Coke to the public almost exceeds counting.
PEPSI Type: Public Founded: 1903 by DCC
BROADHAM Headquarters : New York, USA Industry: Food & Beverage Products: Beverages,Snacks Origin of the product:
It starts with a small drug store in North Carolina. T his little little store belonged to young chemist by the name of DCC BROADHAM. He invented a drink that the customers called BROAD¶S drink. In 1903, Bradham got its drink registered formally by the name of PEPS I COLA
.
Origin of the company: He set his own company and kept its sales improving gradually. By 1909, more then 250 bottlers in different American states had been allowed to sell under the t he PEPSI COLA license. PEPSI COLA was first sold in the standard size of 6.5 ounces. In 1932 PEPSI COLA took courage enough to introduce a bottle of 12 ounces. In 1950 the PEPSI COLA¶S formula had been changed by reducing its sweetness and calories and a new advertising campaign Refresh without filling had been launched e ffectively. ffectively. Under the t he supervision supervision of o f the diligent sales staff and the Marketing experts, PEPSI COLA began setting sett ing new records of eminence.

MARKETING MIX
Definition The 'marketing mix' is a set of o f controllable, tactical marketing tools that work together to achieve company's objectives Four Ps Product
In marketing, a product is anything that can be offered o ffered to a market that might satisfy a want or need. It is of two types: t ypes: Tangible (physical) and Intangible (non-physical). Since services have been at the forefront of all modern marketing strategies, some intangibility intangibility has become essential part of marketing offers. It is therefore the co mplete bundle of benefits or satisfactions that buyers perceive they will obtain if they purc hase the product. It is the sum of all physical, psychological, symbolic, and service attributes, not just the physical merchandise. All products offered in a market can be placed between Tangible (Pure Product) and Intangible (Pure Service) spectrum.
A product is similar to goods. In accounting, acco unting, goods are physical objects that t hat are available in the marketplace. This differentiates them from a service, which is a non- material product. The term goods is used primarily by those that t hat wish to abstract from the details of a given pro duct. As such it is useful in accounting account ing and economic models. The term product pro duct is used primarily by those that wish to examine the details det ails and richness of a specific market offering. As such it is useful to marketers, managers, and quality control specialists.
A service is a non-material or intangible pro duct - such as professional consultancy, serving, or an entertainment experience.

Price In economics and business, the pr ice is the assigned numerical monetary value o f a good, service or asset. Price is also central to marketing where it is one of the four variables in the marketing mix that business people use to develop a marketing plan. Pricing is a big part o f the marketing mix. Choosing the right price and t he right pricing strategy is crucial to the marketing process. The price of the product pro duct is not something that is fixed. On the ot her hand the price of the product pr oduct depends on many other factors. Some times the price of the p roduct has got nothing to do with the actual product itself. itself. The price pr ice may act as a way to attract target customers. The price of the product is decided keeping many things in mind. These things include factors like cost incurred on the product, p roduct, target market, competitors, consumer buying capac ity etc.
Coke - Price
Coke was a company ruling the markets before Pepsi entered. Earlier the pr ice of coke was cost based i.e. it was decided dec ided on the cost which was spent o n making the product plus the profit pro fit and other expenses. But after the emergence of o f other companies especially the likes of Pepsi, Coca-co la started with a pricing strategy based on the t he basis of competition. Nowadays more expenses are spent on advertising my soft-drink companies rather than o n manufacturing. Few year before Coke has brought in a revolution especially in Indian markets w ith the Rs. 5 pricing strategy strategy which was very famous. famous. It was the first first company to introduce the small bottle of Coke for just Re.5. This T his campaign was very successful especially with the price conscious Indian consumers. Even today most prices of Coke are decided on the basis of the competition in the market.
Pepsi ± Price
Pepsi again decides it price on the basis of competition. The best think about the company Pepsi is that it is very flexible and it can co me down with the price very quickly. The co mpany is renowned to bring the price down even up to half if needed. But this risk taking attitude has also earned Pepsi losses. Though lowering the price would attract the customers but it would not help them cover up the co st incurred in production hence causing them losses. This was the situation earlier but now Pepsi is a full-fledged and growing company. It has covered all its losses and is now gro wing at a rapid rate.
Place
Place is a term that has a variety of meanings in a dictionary d ictionary sense, but which is principally used in a geographic sense as a noun to denote location, though in a sense of a location identified with that which is located there.
In marketing, place refers to one o f the 4 P's, defined as "the market place". It can mean a geographic location, an industry, a group of people (a segment) to whom a company wants to sell its products or services, such as young pro fessional fessional women wo men (e.g. for selling cosmetics) or middle-aged family men (e.g. for selling selling family cars).
Coke - Place
Coke is a multinational company co mpany and it has its market around the t he entire world. This can be said just by the first page on o n its site which asks people to select the place of their choice. The website we bsite looks something like t his:
Pepsi ± Place
Pepsi again has spread worldwide. Pepsi P epsi when entering a new market does not go in alone but it looks for partners and mergers. Till now Pepsi P epsi has collaborated with companies like Quaker Oats, Frito-lays, Lipton, Starbucks, etc.
Pepsi like Coke has spread all a ll over the world. It is because of this worldwide spread t hat now it is coming up with Advertisements which can be broadcasted in the different nations in the world. The recent example with would wo uld be the Pepsi advert advertisements isements having David Beckham as it brand ambassador.
Promotion Promotion is one of the four aspects aspect s of marketing. Promotion comprises four subcategories: Advertising Personal selling Sales promotion Publicity and public relations
The specification of these four variables creates a promotional mix or promotional plan. A promotional mix specifies how much attention to pay to each of the four subcategories, and how much money to budget for each. A promotional plan can have a wide range of objectives, including: sales increases, new product accept ance, creation of brand equity, positioning, competitive retaliations, or creation of a corpo rate image.
Both the companies Pepsi and coke are famous for their promotions. The rivalry was first started when Pepsi started with its blind taste tests known as t he Pepsi Challenge. The challenge is designed to be a direct response to critics who allege that Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola are identical drinks, with no meaningful differences. The cha llenge takes the form of a t aste test. At malls, shopping centers and other public pub lic locations, a Pepsi representative sets up a t able with two blank cups, one containing Pepsi and one with Coke. Shoppers are encouraged to taste both colas, and then select which drink they prefer. Then the representative reveals the two bottles so the taster can see whether they t hey preferred Coke or Pepsi. If Pepsi is revealed, the t he shopper is given a small
prize. The implication is that Pepsi tastes better than Coke, and thus consumers should purchase Pepsi. In blind taste tests, more consumers prefer the taste o f Pepsi to that of Coca-Cola. Because Coke was the historical leader, more people peo ple expected that they'd prefer and select Coke. Their surprise at picking Pepsi in the blind b lind taste test (products were served in unmarked cups) helped change their minds about which product prod uct they prefer. Capturing this on film, Pepsi turned this into a memorable TV campaign that lasted many years. Also ad-campaigns are put up on the television by both the players. T he following statistic just tells of much of share of ads on TV are captured by these players.
Infact in the next graph you can see how many programs are sponsored by cola companies and the leader among them is Pepsi. Mainly Ma inly Pepsi is the company sponsoring sponsor ing most cricket telecasts happening in India and spends most of its revenue in that field.
Nowadays both Coke and Pepsi are going in for Brand Ambassadors to promote their product. These brand ambassadors are famous people who usually people idolize and people can relate to them. The following pictures do not need any explanation as people are familiar familiar with the celebrities and can thus quickly identify with the product.
A list of Celebrities that are brand ambassadors for the co la companies are as follows. These celebrities are not only asked to work in the advertisements but they also have to use the product promoted by them and they t hey should not use the t he companies rivals proucts.
