GOALS OF COCA COLA

“ HISTORY OF COCA-COLA:
Coca-Cola was first introduced by John Syth Pemberton, a pharmacist, in the
year 1886 in Atlanta, Georgia when he concocted caramel-colored syrup in a
three-legged brass kettle in his backyard. He first “distributed” the product by
carrying it in a jug down the street to Jacob’s Pharmacy and customers bought
the drink for five cents at the soda fountain. Carbonated water was teamed with
the new syrup, whether by accident or otherwise, producing a drink that was
proclaimed “delicious and refreshing”, a theme that continues to echo today
wherever Coca-Cola is enjoyed.
The business continued to grow, and in 1894, the first syrup manufacturing
plant outside Atlanta was opened in Dallas, Texas. Others were opened in
Chicago, Illinois, and Los Angeles, California, the following year. In 1895, three
years after The Coca-Cola Company’s incorporation, Mr. Asa G. Candler
announced in his annual report to share owners that “Coca-Cola is now drunk in
every state and territory in the United States.”
As demand for Coca-Cola increased, the Company quickly outgrew its facilities.
A new building erected in 1898 was the first headquarters building devoted
exclusively to the production of syrup and the management of the business. In
the year 1919, the Coca-Cola Company was sold to a group of investors for $25
million. Robert W. Woodruff became the President of the Company in the year
1923 and his more than sixty years of leadership took the business to
unsurpassed heights of commercial success, making Coca-Cola one of the most
recognized and valued brands around the world.
T
he Coca-Cola Company began operating in Pakistan in 1953. Coke, Fantail
and Sprite are the brands with whom Coca-Cola is operating in Pakistan.
The Coca-Cola System in Pakistan operates through eight bottlers, four of
which are majority-owned by Coca-Cola Beverages Pakistan Limited
(CCBPL). The CCBPL plants are in Karachi, Hyderabad, Sialkot, Gujranwala,
Faisalabad, Rahim Yar Khan, Multan and Lahore. The remaining two plants,
independently owned, are in Rawalpindi and Peshawar. The Coca-Cola System
in Pakistan serves 70,000 customers/retail outlets. The Coca-Cola System in
Pakistan employs 1,800 people working constantly for the company. During the
last two years, The Coca-Cola Company in Pakistan has invested over $130
million (U.S) and coke has successfully provided 51 years of dedicated service to
its customers in Pakistan. Since the beginning of Coke Company the firm has
been continuously changing its slogans and that’s a very creative idea to get the
attention Of the customers.

However, in recent times, this has not stopped the company from targeting
young consumers. Coke's advertising is rather pervasive, as one of Woodruff's
stated goals was to ensure that everyone on Earth drank Coca-Cola as their
preferred beverage. This is especially true in southern areas of the United States,
such as Atlanta, where Coke was born.
Some of the memorable Coca-Cola television commercials between 1960
through 1986, were written and produced by former Atlanta radio veteran Don
Naylor (WGST 1936-1950, WAGA 1951-1959) during his career as a producer
for the McCann Erickson advertising agency. Many of these early television
commercials for Coca-Cola featured movie stars, sports heroes, and popular
singers of the day.
