Introduction:

The Coca-Cola Company is an American multinational beverage corporation, and

manufacturer, retailer, and marketer of nonalcoholic beverage concentrates and
syrups.The company is best known for its flagship product Coca-Cola, invented in
1886 by pharmacist John Stith Pemberton in Atlanta, Georgia.The Coca-Cola
formula and brand were bought in 1889 by Asa Griggs Candle, who incorporated
The Coca-Cola Company in 1892.
As of 1948, Coca-Cola had claimed about 60% of the market share. In 1919, the
company was sold to Ernest Woodruff's Trust Company of Georgia. By 1984, The
Coca-Cola Company's market share decreased to 21.8% due to new competitors,
namely Pepsi, being released.
In 2010, it was announced that Coca-Cola had become the first brand to top £1
billion in annual UK grocery sales. In 2017, Coke sales were down 11% from a year
earlier due to consumer tastes shifting away from sugary drinks and health risks
associated with artificial sweeteners in diet drinks. Products developed by the
Company are sold through bottlers, fountain wholesalers and distributors around the
globe.
The Company's soft drink operations are managed in 6 Groups: North America, Latin
America, Africa, Greater Europe, Middle/Far East and The Minute Maid Company
(the world's leading marketer of fruit juices and fruit drinks).
Soon after the country’s independence in 1947, Coca-Cola came to Pakistan in
1953. Like in every other country where it operates, the Coca-Cola business in
Pakistan is a local business. The beverages are produced locally, providing
employment to Pakistani citizens, and the product range and marketing reflects
Pakistani tastes and lifestyle.
After the introduction of Coca-Cola, Fanta was introduced in 1965, Sprite was
introduced in 1972, and after a gap of 30 years, Diet Coke and Fanta Lemon were
introduced in 2001. Currently, Coca-Cola beverages are produced and sold in
Pakistan via the company’s own bottling plants which operate under Coca-Cola
Beverages Pakistan Ltd. (CCBPL). A local service office, Coca-Cola Pakistan,
focuses on marketing the Company’s brands locally.
