...1. Introduction Coca-Cola is a carbonated soft drink sold in stores, restaurants, and vending machines internationally. The Coca-Cola Company claims that the beverage is sold in more than 200 countries. It is produced by The Coca-Cola Company in Atlanta, Georgia, and is often referred to simply as Coke (a registered trademark of The Coca-Cola Company in the United States since March 27, 1944). Originally intended as a patent medicine when it was invented in the late 19th century by John Pemberton, Coca-Cola was bought out by businessman Asa Griggs Candler, whose marketing tactics led Coke to its dominance of the world soft-drink market throughout the 20th century. Being a bookkeeper, Frank Robinson also had excellent penmanship. It was he who first scripted "Coca cola" into the flowing letters which has become the famous logo of today. The soft drink was first sold to the public at the soda fountain in Jacob's Pharmacy in Atlanta on May 8, 1886. About nine servings of the soft drink were sold each day. Sales for that first year added up to a total of about $50. The funny thing was that it cost John Pemberton over $70 in expanses, so the first year of sales were a loss. Until 1905, the soft drink, marketed as a tonic, contained extracts of cocaine as well as the caffeine-rich kola nut. The company produces concentrate, which is then sold to licensed Coca-Cola bottlers throughout the world. The bottlers, who hold territorially exclusive contracts with the company, produce...

...TOWS Development November 5, 2013UncategorizedGroup Threats 1. Competitors ( e.g Tesco using their own brand) 2. Possibly some marketing restrictions from the ASA or the European Union. (for making unproven claims such as calling their products “superfoods” without backing it up by any medical science) 3. Recession/economy slowing down/ consumers spending less money in supermarkets Opportunities 1. They could improve their brand by making their own store (juice bar) 2. Being mostly owned by Coca Cola creates many opportunities to operate internationally 3. Government and the EU passing legislation to promote healthy food/drinks Weaknesses 1. High price 2. Do it yourself (People making juice themselves because it is much cheaper) 3. Allergy to certain fruits Strengths 1. Being known as a friendly environmental company (Good Reputation) 2. Widely known brand (Majority of the market) 3. Seasonal Products (Innocent Big Knit) 4. Wide range of products Threats and weaknesses 1. Innocent can manage their threats and competitors by lowering their price of products as they higher than supermarkets using their own brands such as Tesco. Also during the recession they could make extra promotions to make it more affordable their consumers. 2. They can use the advantage of convenience when facing DYI products. Also promoting them as a healthy company that operates with government schemes could boost their sales even though their prices seem higher. Weaknesses and opportunities ...

As an experiment in the infancy of globalization it has outgrown its original hypothesis’. If sites such as Facebook were their own countries, they would be placed in the podium of power internationally. (Divol. 2012) So, it would be safe to assume that star power is worth its, time spent creating. By publishing high quality work and building a massive amount of followers; your audience will share your information with their audience. (Gunelius, 2013) However, from a marketing stand point business can’t rely on social media alone. “If you spend all your time on the social Web directly promoting your products and services, people will stop listening. You must add value to the conversation. Focus less on conversions and more on creating amazing...

...Financial Reporting [case study #2] September 26, 2013 Introduction As the most famous worldwide beverage reaches the last stage of the production line, it is shipped to an authorized bottler – a company which duty is to mix Coca-Cola’s syrup (or concentrates) with carbonated water and sugar before selling it in glass or tin containers. These bottlers can be categorized in three groups taking into account their dependence from The Coca-Cola Company (hereafter simply referred as Coca-Cola). First, there are the independently owned bottlers, which accounted for 34% of Coca-Cola’s production in 1998. Second, 11% of Coca-Cola’s bottlers are owned and controlled. And then, there are those in which Coca-Cola has invested but still has no control (55% in 1998). Anchor Bottlers is the name given to some of these bottlers in which Coca-Cola has minority interests. They account for the majority of Coca-Cola’s sales (43%), justifying their special importance for the company. They tend to be large, geographically disperse and financially burly. There were 10 companies under this label, by 1999. This rooting of Coca-Cola’s business operations aims to make the most of its subsidiaries, by exploiting their efficiency in producing, delivering and marketing Coca-Cola’s products. Nonetheless, the level of control and ownership is carefully studied based on these bottlers’ financial health, resources available at the time of the investment, and the need to share ownerships with other important...
