expanding our still portfolio with strategic acquisitions and innovations;
improving our capabilities in consumer marketing, commercial leadership
and franchise leadership;
Creating a more sustainable future through more efficient energy, water
and operational practices.

inspirational consumer marketing, providing enhanced value to millions of retail

partners and to our bottling partners, who make up the world's largest and most
powerful beverage distribution network.
The men and women of The Coca-Cola Company, working closely with our
dedicated bottling partners around the world, delivered on our commitments with
great discipline and skill. Our product mix is the strongest it has ever been, our
innovation pipeline is growing, and our brands are winning again at the point of
sale.
Our progress in consumer marketing and commercial leadership has renewed
interest in our expanding portfolio among shoppers, retail customers and our
bottling partners. Creative marketing is part of our DNA and has always been our
core competency in eras of success.
In the past year, with "The Coke Side of Life," Happiness Factory-The Movie and
other award-winning marketing programs, we reinvigorated the energy and
optimism at the heart of our brands. We also invited our consumers to experience

the magic and history of the world's most valuable brand at the highly successful
new World of Coca-Cola, which opened this past year in Atlanta.
3.15 ENHANCING THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE
We recognize that we cannot have a healthy and growing business unless the
communities we serve are sustainable themselves. Careful consideration of
environmental, economic and social factors plays into all our decision making and
resulted in a number of new partnerships to support the health of our business and
our planet. Across the Coca-Cola system, we made significant progress in reducing
our water, packaging and energy imprint.
Water is essential to our business. In 2007, we set the ambitious goal to return the
water we use, in our beverages and in their production, back to nature. And our
expanded global partnership with World Wildlife Fund (WWF) aims to help
conserve seven of the world's most important watersheds, as well as to further
improve water efficiency in our operations and strengthen our climate protection
initiatives. Additionally, we signed The CEO Water Mandate, a partnership with the
United Nations Global Compact that commits companies to help protect and
preserve freshwater resources by making water-resource management a strategic
priority throughout their operations and supply chain.
We see packaging not as waste, but as a valuable resource for future use. In 2007,
we established a goal of recycling or reusing 100 percent of our PET* packaging in
the United States. We took an important step toward this goal through a major
investment in the world's largest PET bottle-to-bottle recycling plant in South

Carolina and the launch of a new recycling business called Coca-Cola Recycling LLC
led by our bottling partner, Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc. In India, we are partnering
with the Indian Association of Plastic Manufacturers in significant PET recycling
initiatives in more than 100 locations across the country. And in Brazil, which
recycles nearly 50 percent of PET containers, the Company remains a long-time
supporter of CEMPRE, a nonprofit association dedicated to the promotion of
recycling and waste management.
We also are scaling up our efforts to reduce carbon emissions. We are committed
to growing our business, without growing our carbon footprint. In 2007, we
launched Project ESKO to reduce emissions in manufacturing and drive productivity
improvements. For example, at our 2-million-square-foot world headquarters in
Atlanta, we are working to reduce energy consumption by 23 percent. These efforts
are expected to eliminate more than 10,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide
emissions each year, which is the equivalent of removing 2,000 cars from the road.
And we are using our voice on the world stage to call for responsible standards on
greenhouse gas emissions through our support of the United Nations Global
Compact “Caring for Climate” leadership platform and the “Bali Communiqué.”

Our commitment to being a responsible company includes being a responsible
employer. In 2007, we launched our global Workplace Rights Policy and Human
Rights Statement, guided by the principles of the International Labour.

To reach our peak performance in 2008, we will focus on five strategic priorities:
First, we will continue to grow our leadership in sparkling beverages, the core of
our business today and tomorrow. We know there is tremendous opportunity to
grow our sparkling beverages in both developed and emerging markets. Second, we
will drive even faster growth in our still beverage portfolio by adding new functional
benefits, developing affordable formulations, pursuing relevant bolt-on acquisitions
and seeking margin enhancements. Juice and juice drinks, sports drinks, water,
coffees, teas and emerging categories offer exciting opportunities for future growth
around the world.
Second, we will continue to generate and take advantage of the balanced growth
we have achieved across our portfolio and the markets we serve. In the world's
emerging economies, our business is buoyed by growing urbanization, rising
middle-class consumers and the corresponding conversion to ready-to-drink
beverages that meet new lifestyle needs. In North America, our flagship market, we
will continue to focus on renewing the health of our business.

Management & Marketing Execution Plan. By this, company not only has been increasing its Sales & Market Shares but it also has proved as a media for the company to come closer to its Customers & Shoppers.
This case of Coca Cola Company is related to the Patna Region where the company is the leader in the both the Market Shares & the Sales Volume. After RED was introduced in Patna, the Company continuously tried to improve its RED Score Card.
Its RED Score Card shown in April 2008, in Patna Region (especially Exhibition Road, Pirmohani, Goriatoli & New Market) was 34.5% (Approx), which was not near to the Standard i.e. 50, fixed for the month.
The Standard for the month May was fixed 60 by the Sales Management for this Region. But the result was negative for this month i.e. 22.3%(approx). The RED Score declined by 63% in this month as it was fixed by sales management.
It put extra pressure on Sales Execution Team to uplift this Score in the month of June. So, it was the challenge for the Sales Execution Force to regain its prestige but still they didn’t achieve the minimum Standard of 60% but somehow manage the score 31.1% which was increased from the previous month.
