Aquafina Industry is highly attractive but business is lacking some required strengths. So think that company must make investment to over come its weak points.
Other Corporate Strategies: New product development: From our analysis of whole case study and relevant information gathered we come to know that there is a room for new product in company product mix offered in Pakistan. Company may introduce some of its exiting products in Pakistan or come up with entirely new product that could compete with Local Brand like ROOH AFZA, NORUS, etc.
Strategic Alliance, There’s Strength In Numbers Strategic alliances occur when two separate businesses join together to offer a broader set of skills or services to joint clients, to the mutual benefit of both companies. An alliance between companies that provide different, but complem complement entary ary,, servic services es or product productss allows allows both both compan companies ies to create create an advantage over competitors by broadening br oadening the scope of their operations. Alliances can make your business more valuable to t o your client, expand your business, multiply your sales force, and give you a dependable supplier of the aligned service or product. There are no rules restricting alliances: Large businesses may join with small businesses and vice versa; small businesses may band together, or large busi busine ness sses es may may coll collabo abora rate te with with each each othe other. r. But But ther there e are are thre three e basi basicc characteristics that most successful alliances share: The alliance benefits both partners. Good agreements open new doors for the partners and allow room to evolve as future opportunities occur. Successful alliances create new value through collaboration. Partners must value the skills each party brings to the alliance. For an alliance to flourish, both parties must be involved in managing the partnership. An alliance without trust and respect is doomed to failure.
Pepsi Co can have strategic alliance with other up stream and down stream organization, this will will give them competitive competitive edge over over their competitors. competitors. While going for an strategic strategic alliance Pepsi Pepsi must concentr concentrate ate on what they do best, and bring added value to their customers.

Marketing Strategy SEGMENTING They are committed to marketing their products to all groups, treating all customers with respect, sensitivity and fairness, while providing some of the greatest products on earth. Early in its history - as far back as the 1940s - Pepsi-Cola recognized the importa importance nce of divers diversity ity.. Pepsi Pepsi pionee pioneered red targe targeted ted market marketing ing and and natio national nal lifestyle advertising featuring minorities. they developed education and sports programs spotlighting minorities. they partnered with many groups to create programs that contribute to minority communities. they sponsored major music tours by entertainers such as Michael Jackson and Tina Turner. they support minority media and interests. Over the years, their success has been recognized with numerous awards. Most importantly, their products are purchased and enjoyed by all groups of consumers.
PACKAGING Providing Providing their consumers consumers with easy-to-u easy-to-use, se, convenie convenient nt and innovativ innovative e containers is one of their top priorities. Package introductions they have made over the years include the industry's first two-liter bottle; the first company to respond to consumer preference with lightweight, recyclable, plastic bottles; The Cube, an easy-to-store 24-pack; Big Slam, the wide-mouth one-liter bottle; as well as our three-liter bottle, designed to provide consumers with extra value (not all products and packaging is available in all markets). Thei Theirr loca locall bottl bottler ers, s, many many of whic which h are are priv privat atel elyy owne owned, d, fran franch chis ise e operations, make all packaging decisions.

PRICING Providing quality products at the lowest possible price has always been one of Pepsi's main concerns. One of the ways they have been able to assist this effort is by expanding their use of inexpensive and recyclable plastic bottles. The soft drink industry today is confronted with a bewildering array of price increases. Their expenditures for labor, ingredients, transportation and more all continue to rise. The cost of aluminum alone has increased dramatically since last year. Across their entire system however, they have been cutting overhead and re-engineering their manufacturing process in order to keep their prices competitive. It is their policy to limit any price increases to the retail trade to the lowest possible extent.
Distribution Service They They shou should ld go to mark market et throu through gh a distri distribu buti tion on netwo network rk offe offeri ring ng extraord extraordina inary ry strengt strength h and flexib flexibil ilit ity. y. Their Their goal goal should should be to put their their products within easy reach of the consumer. Their distribution distribution systems must be design to help then to achieve achieve their goal. Because practices and customs vary by market and because retail customers have different needs, Therefore they Should have several successful models for service that they use around the world.
Direct Store Delivery Vast and powerful direct store delivery (DSD) systems are at the heart of that network. Through these systems they take snacks and drinks directly to tens of thousands of distribution outlets, from the tiniest convenience store to the largest warehouse outlet. They and their bottlers actually take products into the store and set them on the shelves. That helps to ensure that their products are fresh and that fragile fragile items like potato chips are handled handled with care. It also allows them to merchandise their brands for maximum visibility and appeal. Their systems can move new products into distribution very quic quickl kly, y, somet sometim imes es as fast fast as a week. week.

At the same time, DSD provides big financial benefits to retailers. Since they handle the products and do the merchandising, retailers save on labor. And because their products typically are sold and restocked every few days, while retailers pay for them on 30-day cycles, they add a lot to a store's cash flow.

PEPSI ADVERTISING For over 100 years, Pepsi-Cola has produced some of the finest soft drinks ads available anywhere in the world. From today's "Joy of Cola" campaign starring "Pepsi Girl" Hallie Eisenberg to yesterday's "Nickel, Nickel" (1939), their ads are as memorable as the products they produce. Both electronic and print media is used for promotional purpose.
Pepsi’s brand management The bond arising from the customer's entire experience with the brand leads to a relationship that can last forever. As the alignment grows stronger, so does the brand. People love it. And they buy it. Thus, born in corporate boardroom, pepsi has become a social artifact, having stolen its way into the popular lexicon and created history. This forever brand has continued to survive in spite of the changes taking place all around it. And the passage of time has failed to tarnish its glory. Who cares what it is made of? What matters is only that its tangy flavor has quenched the thirst of millions, its swoosh of effervescence has soothed parched souls since the 1890s and its scarlet hue has painted the world in to its three colours. on one hand we have have a marketing meltdown meltdown that is flagellating at least 50 per cent of all brands, on the other we have Pepsi that has continued to achieve meteoric growth despite all odds. This begs one question: what makes this forever brand different? The search for the right answer is what has driven an extensive research effort over the past few years to extract the essence of the success and to study the core ideas that have clicked so well with the cons consum umer ers. s. In the the camp campai aign gnss of this this fore foreve verr bran brandd-fi five ve ways ways have have been been 87
