Coca-Cola’s Leadership
Coca-Cola:
Then and Now
• Contracts with big restaurants
• Brand name- Coca Cola means
something
• Customer Loyalty
• Promotion strategy
• International trade
• Iconic Shape
• Secret Recipe
Strengths
•
People are becoming more health conscious
•
•
Not a presence in the Organic Market
•
•
•
•
•
•
Not the healthiest choice (soft drink)
Marketing is going to be costly, high chance of failure
No room for failure in company, competition will take over
failed markets.
First impressions are lasting, very difficult to draw loyalists from
competition.
Too many products is like a double edged sword, lack of
popularity in different locations.
Deciding who to market products to and how far to reach
out is hard to determine
Brand Loyalty
Weaknesses
• Expansion into health conscious organic markets
• Energy, Sports and Flavored water beverages
markets have potential for further expansion of
these brands
• Acquiring small market share competitors in foreign
markets; i.e. Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and
South America.
• Advertise other brands within the Coca-Cola family
• Obtain contracts with current and new chain
restaurants to carry exclusively Coca-Cola
products.
Opportunities
PepsiCo
• The vast majority of
the market share
belongs to the two
giants Coke and
Pepsi
• Coke was first
bottled in a plant
in 1894, Pepsi in
1908.
• Both created by a
pharmacist.
Threats to Coca Cola
Health Issues
• The threat of their products being
forced to display a cancer health
warning has led to iconic drink
brands Coca Cola changing their
recipe
• Coca-Cola influences Grand
Canyon officials to scrap plastic
bottle ban
• Vitamin Water exposed as sugar
water in Food Investigations.
• To this day, Coca-Cola still imports
coca leaves which are used to
manufacture cocaine in the United
States
Threats to Coca Cola
• A grand strategy is an overall framework or plan of action
developed at the corporate level to achieve an
organizations objective.
• The growth strategy is used to help create a high level of
growth in one or more of its areas of operation or business
units.
• The management of Coca-Cola must focus on current
market growth by adapting product development,
market development, and market penetration.
• Implementing the growth strategy would not only help
grow the company, but it would help eliminate barriers
that would hold the company back from progression.

Tamara – “Throughout working on this project, I learned about the
different products within the Coca-Cola company and that group work
is only successful with the participation of all members.”
Scott – “I learned that all companies have their weaknesses and the key
component to maintaining a strong and successful business is realizing
what they are and striving to strengthen these areas. I also feel that this
concept relates to group work as well.”
Timothy – “I learned that with any company the core values and goals
must remain the same, if not earlier problems may come to haunt you.”
Stanley – “I learned that the bigger the market the more opportunities.”
Jeffery – “I learned that preparation and vision is need to run a company
and work well in group projects. ”
Danielle – “During the time spent working on this project, I learned that
no matter how large an organization is it is not infallible. I was also
reminded of many of the challenges in working with a group”
