by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes

traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Technological Environment1048707 Innovations in computerized technology could affect the bottling
process which involves specialized high-speed lines1048707 Hot-fill reverse-osmosis or other specialized equipment is
necessary to bottle the noncarbonated beverages that have higher profit
margins than the carbonated soft drinks (CSD)
Social Environment1048707 Consumer trends shifting away from original product lines for
health reasonsndash from diet soda to lemon-line to tea-based drinks to
other popular non-carbonated beverages1048707 An increasing trend in teen consumption of CSDs1048707 Metal and Plastic containers commonly used by bottlers are

Industrial Outlookbull Leading national amp global soft drink manufacturers were challenged
by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Political and Legal Environment1048707 Soft Drink Interbrand Competition Act of 1980 secured the right of Concentrate Producers (CPs) to grant exclusive territories to
bottlers1048707 Anti-trust legal suit against Coca-Cola by Pepsi over fountain drink monopolization in the domestic market was dismissed in 20001048707 Pressure from the scientific community for the FDA to research the
affects of caffeine consumption and to enforce caffeine labels warning of

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Technological Environment1048707 Innovations in computerized technology could affect the bottling
process which involves specialized high-speed lines1048707 Hot-fill reverse-osmosis or other specialized equipment is
necessary to bottle the noncarbonated beverages that have higher profit
margins than the carbonated soft drinks (CSD)

health reasonsndash from diet soda to lemon-line to tea-based drinks to
other popular non-carbonated beverages1048707 An increasing trend in teen consumption of CSDs1048707 Metal and Plastic containers commonly used by bottlers are

Industrial Outlookbull Leading national amp global soft drink manufacturers were challenged
by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

bottlers1048707 Anti-trust legal suit against Coca-Cola by Pepsi over fountain drink monopolization in the domestic market was dismissed in 20001048707 Pressure from the scientific community for the FDA to research the

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

bottlers1048707 Anti-trust legal suit against Coca-Cola by Pepsi over fountain drink monopolization in the domestic market was dismissed in 20001048707 Pressure from the scientific community for the FDA to research the
affects of caffeine consumption and to enforce caffeine labels warning of

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

process which involves specialized high-speed lines1048707 Hot-fill reverse-osmosis or other specialized equipment is
necessary to bottle the noncarbonated beverages that have higher profit
margins than the carbonated soft drinks (CSD)
Social Environment1048707 Consumer trends shifting away from original product lines for
health reasonsndash from diet soda to lemon-line to tea-based drinks to
other popular non-carbonated beverages1048707 An increasing trend in teen consumption of CSDs1048707 Metal and Plastic containers commonly used by bottlers are

Industrial Outlookbull Leading national amp global soft drink manufacturers were challenged
by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Demographic Environment1048707 Explosive population growth in foreign countries intoexplosive
growth potential for those markets1048707 Aging baby boomer population in United States may lead to a
decrease in cola product demand
Political and Legal Environment1048707 Soft Drink Interbrand Competition Act of 1980 secured the right of Concentrate Producers (CPs) to grant exclusive territories to
bottlers1048707 Anti-trust legal suit against Coca-Cola by Pepsi over fountain drink monopolization in the domestic market was dismissed in 20001048707 Pressure from the scientific community for the FDA to research the
affects of caffeine consumption and to enforce caffeine labels warning of
the dangers of caffeine consumption1048707 Obstacles in international operations included political instability regulations price controls advertising restrictions foreign

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Industrial Outlookbull Leading national amp global soft drink manufacturers were challenged
by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Industrial Outlookbull Leading national amp global soft drink manufacturers were challenged
by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Industrial Outlookbull Leading national amp global soft drink manufacturers were challenged
by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

by small no-frill no-advertising brands in marketbull Being a developing economies informal business were easier to start
amp growbull Global brands loosing market share to so called B brands across
many product categoriesbull Leading brands in Brazil are threatened due to the rapid proliferation
of the Private brandsbull Major problem for established brands in Brazil was the unfair
competition from companies that had no legal existnce amp from those who were registered but did not pay taxes
bull 90 of 750 regional brands of soft drink do not pay the taxbull This is the reason why tubainas can compete on the basis of pricebull Taxes amounted to 40 of the Soft Drinks sale pricebull Use of promotional tools also seemed to impact the share of
traditional brandsbull To fight price competition leading brands increased their trade

1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move
1- Coca Cola to confront Tubainas reintroduced in returnable glass bottles2- Sales of soft drinks went up by 103- Priced closer to Tubainas amp appealed to class C amp D consumers4- The distribution was extended to nearly 7000 points of sale5- This move elicited mixed reaction from consumer large retailors were not so sure as it posed a major problem6- Strategist shared their concerns that cost associated with transporting cleaning amp storing bottles could nul any apparent savings7- The real objective was to increase Coca Colarsquos profitability in Brazil8- By the end of 2003 returnable bottled accounted for less than 10 amp there were no signs of growth in market share
Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke

Returnable Bottles - a wrong move

Future outlook
1- Coca Cola showed encouraging signs2- Partnership with lsquoNORSArsquo resulted in regaining control of distribution in several north eastern states having 28 of the population3- Coca Cola market share reached 445 in 2003 (422002) which led the operational profit to grow by 404- Taubainarsquos share dropped from 428 to 3885- Coca Cola should offer all possible taste amp price levels6- The consumer benefited most in terms of price amp variety
Emerging Competition
1- Market became more competitive with the entry of RC Cola2- Bebidas signed franchise agreement to produce amp distribute RC cola for 20 years4- In blind test between RC PEPSI amp Coke consumers preferdn RC 5- One of the strategies to be adopted by RC was to oofer sampling in super markets6- Counting on RC tastes amp technical expertise RC Cola is expected to gain 5 of Brazilian market in next three years7- The product was being produced amp distributed in five north eastern cities amp in various type of containers8- The brand is also launched at 10-15 lower than Coke
