Preface

To become a successful management professional we should have theoretical as

well practical knowledge of management. During the first year of management

course, I have acquired theoretical knowledge by attending MBA classes, seminars,

business quiz, etc. But there was no chance of industrial exposure. Two months of

summer training in the company has given me an opportunity to apply my

theoretical knowledge and make strategies on real life situation of an organization.

Today’s industries are very much competitive in nature due to globalization and

the internal economic boost up, there are lots of new player in the market to

pose threat to existing companies. So the companies of today’s era believe in

smart work rather than hard work. Every time it needs fresh ideas and prompt

decision making abilities from the management professionals. So this is a challenge

for me.

During the project work in the COCA COLA PVT. LTD. DASNA MASUORI. I met

some of the Retailers I interacted with them and also built a good relationship

which helped me to get useful valuable information regarding my survey. The

task provided me with a lot of learning experience of the real life situations.

This project has given me a platform from where I can start my career as a

management professional. I have gained a lot of confidence from this project.

Executive Summary

Supply Chain Management has become an important part of the FMCG product. The message and

the product need to be forwarded with great accuracy and efficiency at each stage of SCM. The strategies are made at

corporate level and it has to be incorporated down the line with equal participation at all the functional and operational level of

an organization.

Coca cola is one of the leading cola brand in the world with large

scale distribution and consumption across India. I was given the opportunity to do a

project to find out “Impact of RED outlet activation programme on the sale of the coke

product with special emphasis on Kinley water in the vijay nagar market” by Mr.

Gourav Chaturvedi, (G.M.) COCA COLA PVT. LTD. DASNA MASUORI.in my summer

training.

At first I was made aware of the entire RED program and the

distribution process of direct and indirect route channels and services provided by the

company. The project demanded a survey of the market.

The purpose of the project is to find out the performance of the RED outlets. What has been the

impact on the sale after RED activation? Has the sale of Coca-Cola products increased or not, whether or not the

Kinley water is getting prominence in the RED outlet? And to answer various such questions such

as the outlet deserved to be a RED outlet or not ? what was the attitude of the retailer towards the RED

campaign ? Whether the retailer is aware of his RED outlet or not ? What counter scheme is the retailer receiving

from the Pepsi if any ? What other packaged water brands are selling in the outlet ? Etc.

For this purpose detailed survey was carried out for the direct and the indirect route with

the route agents and the executives and the distributors for their respective RED outlets. Thereby the loopholes in

the system was identified if there was any and measures were suggested for the betterment of the whole process.

1.1 Background Of The Organization

The Coca Cola Company is the world’s largest beverage company and is the leading

producer and marketer of soft drinks. Along with Coca Cola, recognized as the world’s

best-known brand, the company markets four of the world’s best known brands,

including Diet Coke, Fanta and Sprite. Through the world’s largest distribution system,

consumers in nearly 200 countries enjoy the company’s products at a rate of 1 billion

servings per day.

The Coca Cola Company exists to benefit and refresh everyone who is touched by the

business. Coca Cola was founded in May 8th, 1886 by Dr. John S. Pemberton in Atlanta,

Georgia. The name Coca Cola was suggested by Dr. Pemberton’s bookkeeper, Franc

Robinson. He penned the name Coca Cola in the flowing script that is famous today and

is known as the Spenserian script. Coca Cola was first sold at a soda fountain in Jacob's

Pharmacy, in Atlanta by Willis Venable. During the first year, sales of Coca Cola

averaged nine drinks a day, adding up to total sales for that year of $50. Since the year's

expenses were just over $70, Dr. Pemberton took a loss. The Coca Cola Company was

formally created in 1893 when Coca Cola was registered as a trademark.

8
Today the company is the leading manufacturer, marketer and distributor of nonalcoholic

beverage concentrates and syrups, used to produce more than 250 beverage brands all

across the world which is asking for beverages that span the entire spectrum of tastes and

occasions. What people want in a beverage is a reflection of which they are, where they

live, how they work and play, and how they relax and recharge. Whether a student in

United States enjoying a refreshing Coca Cola, a woman in Italy taking a tea break, a

child in Peru asking for a juice drink, or a couple in Korea buying packaged drinking

water after a run together, everywhere Coca Cola is there for you. In its course of people

connect all across the world, the company has created

One the most remarkable highlights in the history of marketing and advertising. The

greatest is perhaps the creation of Santa Clause originally created by Haddon Sandblom

in a special Christmas commercial for The Coca Cola Company.

One the most remarkable highlights in the history of marketing and advertising. The

greatest is perhaps the creation of Santa Clause originally created by Haddon Sandblom

in a special Christmas commercial for The Coca Cola Company.

Coca Cola is determined not only to make great drinks, but also to contribute to

communities around the world through to education, health, wellness and diversity. The

9
company takes the noble onus to support and sponsor welfare activities all across the

world. The company has an earnest obligation in environmental welfare. In fact the

company runs a formal wing known as “Coca Cola eKosystem” dedicated to Protect,

Preserve and Enhance the Environment in which the company operates. The Coca Cola

Company had been a great patronage for sports events all across the world. From

roadside events to the Olympics, Coca Cola has touched the heart of every sports lover.

The Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages Pvt. Ltd. is a subsidiary of The Coca-Cola

Company in India. The Coca-Cola Company, which left India in 1977 when it was asked

to reduce foreign equity, came back on October 23, 1993 and acquired the Parle, owned

plant Kejriwal Beverages Pvt. Ltd. in Mehdigunj. Thereafter, the company has invested

more than US $ 1 billion in this country, to set up a huge production and distribution

system which consists of 44 bottling plants, a chain of 29 packers, more than 7000

people, and more than 700,000 retail outlets. In India the company produces and markets

about 12 brands. In the bottled soft drinks section it markets

Thums Up, Coca Cola, Sprite, Limca, Maaza, Fanta and Vanilla Coke along with Kinley

bottled Soda and Diet Coke. In the packaged drinking water segment it produces and

markets Kinley. In the hot beverage segment it has a national presence with Georgia Tea

10

the company also marketed Schweppes and Crush.

The company also puts in a conscious effort in welfare of the community. It is involved

in various welfare activities, from education for the underprivileged children to

ambulance services for the needy. The company has been closely related and a great

patron for sports events in India, the sponsorship of the “Olympic Torch Relay” in India

is the latest testimony. Recently the company has taken a decision of investing another

US $ 100 million in the country.

1.3 History of Soft Drinks

The history of soft drinks began with the end of the last century. Its history dates

back to the civil war in USA in 1860. At the time people were suffering from many

diseased.

Problem at that time was how to cure all these disease since no remedy was present

at that time. It was a big question for American people. So in 1885 Mr. Jihn

Palmwartion, who lived in Antonica, made a drink and registered it as FRENCH WINE

COLA. In the beginning the drink was made with mixture of cocaine and alcohol but

later on it was converted and changed into a soft drink. Now it is named as Coca-Cola. A

new brand named Pepsi-Cola came in the year 1887.

Around 1984 the first branded soft drink came in the Indian market. This soft drink

was named as “Gold Spot”. Parle Exports Pvt. Ltd. was the first Indian Company to

introduce a lemon soft drink, this drink was known as “Limca” and it was introduced in

1970s. However, before this drink had introduced” Cola Pepino” which was withdrew in

face of tough competition.

In the year 1977 Coca-Cola left Indian market and this brought in an opportunity

for various Indian companies to show their caliber. At this time a new soft drink was

introduced by Parle Products and this was names as “Thums-Up”.

14
This was a Coca-Cola drink which had a burnt sugar colour. This drink was

introduced with a mighty “Happy Days Are Here Again”. There was another company

named Pure Drinks which introduced the soft drink named “Campa Cola” along with

orange and lemon flavour.

Just after this many more companies entered the Indian soft drink market. A soft drink

named “Double-7” had been introduced by a company Modern Bakers. Another

company, Mohan Meakins also came with a soft drink named “Marry & Puck-Up”.

Mcdowell came with “Thrill, Rush, Sprit”.

Previously there was no competition in the Indian soft drink market but with all these

companies coming in the Indian market a huge competition was taking place with high

voltage advertisement. But in the year 1988 Pepsi-Cola was given permission to sell its

soft drinks in the Indian market by the Government of India. Coca-Coal also came back

in 1993.

15
1.4 Soft Drink Market In Indian Scenario

Indian soft drink industry is witnessing a boom time. Its growth rate is around 30%.

With such a high growth rate, volume could reach billion crates within 10 years. Two

major multinational companies are fighting to grab a major chunk of business from

Indian markets. These are Pepsi-Cola & Coca-Cola. Both of these companies have seen

an enormous potential in this country. Consequently, by world standard, Indian per capita

consumption of soft drinks is still very low. Therefore these soft drinks grants feel that

capita consumption can only grow up. Soft drink industry has already seen an estimated

sale of around 200 million cases in 1997(1 case = 24 bottles) which is 30 million crates

higher than last year’s sale 170 million in 1996. The main reason for such a high growth

rate is heightened competition between Pepsi-Cola & Coca-Cola, being a new entrant is

far behind.

India is actually more vivid in taste and preference than any other country market.

Delhi jar instance, accounts for about 20% of total soft drinks consumption in terms of

sales. There are about 4,50,000 soft drink retailers in India and their number is

increasing day by day. This actually means that there is just one soft drink retailer on a

population of 32,000 approximately which is far below the international standard. Where

as Philippines has one soft drink retail counter over a population of 150 people i.e.

4,50,000 outlets on a population of 60 million.

The Indian Cola Scenario

The cola market in India is dominated by two global players Pepsi-Cola and

Coca-Cola. Pepsi entered the Indian market in 1993.

16
World wide beverage business is bright and Pepsi’s life, its only business. Deep

blue Pepsi, is broad based food and beverage company deriving more than 60% of its

sales and operating profits from its snacks food and restaurants business.

Both Pepsi foods and Coca-Coal India have hit upon same strategy create

awareness by increasing noise levels reduce prices to incuse trials and later increase price

once consumer trials have begun.

Pepsi-Cola has taken the more capital intensive route of owning and running its

own bottling plants (Company Operated Bottling Operations or COBO), alongside those

of its franchisees.

Coca-Cola is mainly franchisee driven operations with the company supplying its

soft drink concentrate (that sector portion) to its bottles around the world (Franchisee

Operated/Owned Bottling Operations or FOBO).

PEPSI-COLA:- India figures amongst the top three focus countries on Pepsi’s horizon

sharing the honors with China and Russia.

The Indian PepsiCo has pumped in Rs. 300 crore would be investing

17
the similar amount of money in near future.

In 1994, Pepsi bought over Dukes in Bombay, which was bought

over lock, stock and brand, Rs. 45 crore, COBO account for half of Pepsi’s total soft

drink sales.

Pepsi-Cola has single mindedly focused on brand Pepsi and has become virtually a one

brand company.

COCA-COLA:- Coca-Cola re-entered in India after 17 years in 1993.

By striking a $40m deal with Parle it got an instant access to the

vast Indian soft drink market.

Coca-Cola is having a multi brand strategy and is looking for a

great volume opportunity in India.

Coca-Cola spending on advertisement and recently sponsored the

Wills World Cup cricket series.

Coca-Cola is about to invest Rs. 2,400 crores for setting up two

subsidiaries in India. Within its classic Coca-Cola speak ‘focus, focus, focus and stem

roll ahead’.

1.5 COMPANY PROFILE

Water, a thirst quencher that refreshes, a life giving force that washes all the

toxins away. A ritual purifier that cleanses, purifies, transforms. Water the most basic

need of life, the very sustenance of life, a celebration of life itself.

The importance of water can never be understated. Particularly in nation like India

where water governs the life of the millions, be it a part of everyday rituals or

as a monsoon which gives life to the sub-continent.

Kinley water thus promises water that is as pure as it is meant to be. Water you

can trust to be truly safe and pure.

Kinley water comes with the assurance of safety from the Coca-Cola company.

That is why it introduced Kinley with reverse-osmosis along with the latest

technology to ensure the purity of our product. That is why we go through

rigorous testing procedures at each and every location where kinley is produced.

Because it believes that right to pure, safe drinking water is fundamental. A

universal need that can not be left to chance.

1.7 ROUTE OPERATION FOR KINLEY

The distribution system of the organization COCA COLA PVT. LTD. DASNA

MASUORI. is designed in such way that, so that it covers the maximum route or

the part of Calcutta by the company’s vehicle under the DIRECT ROUTE and

those part which are not possible to be covered by the company’s vehicle it is

organized under the IDIRECT ROUTE. The Indirect Route are mostly those part

of Calcutta where the company’s vehicle cannot make its way. As the route

riding is done by the big 407 TATA trucks which cannot move into the

congested roads and lanes of interior Ghaziabad. The company also supply’s water

to outer part Ghaziabad which is covered under the DIRECT ROUTE.

For each vehicle to move in the city the company has a proper route design, as

each route is divided into three parts Part A, Part B and the Part C, which is

headed by a route agent and He covers the each part on a single day of the

week thus in a week he gets a chance to cover his whole route twice and He

thus gets a rest day for a week

And to look after the working of the Route Executives company has appointed

the Route Executives who looks after the Route Agents, normally there are more

22
than two Route Agents under the Executives depending upon the area they cover

and under what category they fall. As there are assigned different Executives to

look after different types of area and retailers. The company has divided its

retailers or the customers in the following way.

1. DIRECT ROUTE

 GENERAL DEALER

 SIGNAGE DEALER

 INSTITUTONS

 MODERN TRADE

2. INDIRECT ROUTE

CITY DISTRIBUTORS

DISTRICT DISTRIBUTORS

1.8 OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT

The purpose of the project is to find out the performance of the RED outlets.

What has been the impact on the sale after RED activation? Has the sale of

Coca-Cola products increased or not whether or not the Kinley water is getting

prominence in the RED outlet or not? And to answer various such questions such

as the outlet deserved to be a RED outlet or not ? what was the attitude of the

retailer towards the RED campaign ? Whether the retailer is aware of his RED

outlet or not ? What counter scheme is the retailer receiving from the Pepsi if

any ? Is Kinley getting prominence in the outlet or not? What other packaged water

brands are selling in the outlet ? Etc.

For this purpose detailed survey was carried out for the direct and the indirect

route with the route agents and the executives and the distributors for their

respective RED outlets. Thereby the loopholes in the system was identified if

there was any and measures were suggested for the betterment of the whole

process and success of the RED campaign.

24
1.9 The Research Methodology

Research methodology is a way to systematically solve the research problem

involving a study of various steps that are generally adopted by a researcher in studying

his research problem.

THIS INCLUDES:-

 Defending the research problem

 Research design.

 Method of data collection.

 Analysis & Interpretation.

DEFINING THE RESEARCH PROBLEM: -

Problem under the study

was to find out about the RED outlet activation program of Coca Cola whether it helping

in increasing the sale of Coke products in Vijay nagar region.

SAMPLING DESIGN:-

The problem under study is related to a program so it

was necessary for me to collect the accurate data so no samples were taken instead of that

we tried to collect information from the whole population i.e. each shop was visited

personally which were registered under the scheme.

The population under research includes whole vijay nagar

25
region which are divided into various sectors.

RESEARCH DESIGN:-

An overall “Rigid” descriptive research design

has been used focusing attention on:

 Formulation of objectives of the study.

 Designing methods for the data collection.

 Selecting the sample size.

 Collecting the data.

 Processing and Analysis of data.

 Reporting the finding.

METHOD OF DATA COLLECTION:-

 Primary Source Of Data Collection:

 Collection of data by means of well framed questionnaire.

 Direct interaction with the retailers.

 Direct interaction with dealers and distributors.

26
 Secondary Source Of Data Collection:

 Catalogues of company are studied in order to have a complete knowledge

about the different brands available in the market.

 Different magazines and news papers are studied to collect the information

about present scenario of cold drink market.

 Download the information available on the web-site of the companies.

 The information is also obtained from the previous report of the

companies.

CASE AND TOOLS:-

Applying the relevant statistical tools did the analysis and

interpretation of the findings.

27
1.10 DESIGN OF QUESTIONNAIRE

QUESTIONNAIRE:

A questionnaire, whether it is called a schedule, interview form, or

measuring instrument, is a formalized set of questions for obtaining

information from the respondents. Typically a questionnaire is one element

in data collection package that might also include 1. field work procedure,

such as instrument for selecting, approaching and questioning respondents.

2. Some reward gift, or payment offered to respondents.

Any questionnaire has three main objectives

 It must translate the information needed into a set of specific

question that the respondent can and will answer and that will yield

the desired information

 A questionnaire must uplift, motivate and encourage the respondent

to become involved in the interview, to co-operate and complete the

interview. In designing questionnaire we need to minimize the

respondent fatigue and boredom. A well designed questionnaire can

motivate the respondent and increase the response rate

 A questionnaire should minimize he response error.

QUESTIONNAIRE DESIGN PROCESS:

28
The great weakness in the questionnaire design is lack of theory. Because there

are no scientific principles that guarantee an optimal or ideal questionnaire,

questionnaire design skill is acquired through experience.

For a good questionnaire we must remember the following points.

 Specify the type of interviewing method.

 Determine the content of individual questions

 Design the question to overcome the respondents inability and

unwillingness to answer

 Decide the question structure

 Determine the question wording

 Arrange the questions in proper order

 Identify the form and layout

 Reproduce the questionnaire

 Pretest the questionnaire

2.5 VISI-COOLERS
Choosing the best location- “The golden triangle”

Golden triangle – The area located along the route of the three
major points

 The front Door


 The Cash register
 The most frequently bought item in the store

Example – Convenience Stores

Most popular item -milk

Cash Register

Entrance

49
Using The Principle Of Golden Triangle To Affect
Destination Shoppers

 If you go to a drug store to get a prescription, you will not notice a


single message until after your mission is accomplished – the first part of
the golden triangle.

 When walking to the front to leave the outlet we are not affected by any
impulse displays or messages as they all face the front of the store and
have their back to us now.

 There is no point in telling a shopper something when it is too late to


action on it, for example the last part of the golden triangle.

2.6 RED SCORE TRACKING

50
RED Score Tracking
To measure the execution of RED a simple questionnaire has been designed. It

measures execution compliance versus key standards only. And at the end of every

month actionable information are generated for the unit.

Tracking is done on the following parameters:

1. Visi-cooler - 35 points

Visi-cooler compliances as per RED norms will be tracked. This includes cooler

being present in outlet, cooler purity, cooler as per RED standards, cooler

in prime position etc.

2. Availability - 40 points

RED will track Brand and Brand pack availability, as specified in RED

norms. Brand pack norms are channeling specific.

3. Activation Elements - 25 points

51
Tracking of activation element in the outlet is done by RED.

Tracking of element is channel specific.

Mandatory elements are tracked, where as optional elements may be used

if space permits, but not tracked by RED.

TOTAL - 100 POINTS

RECOMMENDATIONS

80
5.1 RECOMMENDATION/SUGGESTION

After completing the research and the survey work on behalf of COCACOLA

PVT. LTD.,DASNA MASURI I have identified the weaknesses and certain flaws

and loopholes, which needs to be plugged in order to prosper in this market in

the distant future. I recommend or rather suggest the following proposals for

COCACOLA PVT. LTD. DASNA MASURI From which they can surely earn huge

dividends.

 In order to be prominent in the RED outlet the M.D. has to be more

responsible and it is his task to report to the senior officials regarding any

irregularity by the retailers.

 The route exe. and the route agents should make full effort to make kinley

prominent in RED outlet.

 Each retailer must be knowing the importance of RED outlet, what benefit

it can bring to them and the company?

 Company should become more organized. The cola division and the water

division should have a monthly meeting and exchange there views that will

benefit both the division.

81
 The senior official should be regularly in touch with the route agents in

order to overcome the problems which they face

 No. of distributors of kinley should be increased

 Kinley should allocate more budget for in shop Promotional activities to

increase coverage effectively.

 Nothing much has been done in the field of advertising, so the company

should undertake sustained advertising in order to generate people

awareness. This is important as kinley doesn’t advertise in any kind of

media.

 The Kinley can sponsor corporate event in order to create buzz and

enhance brand visibility.

 Service is the main strength of Kinley. This should be maintained and can be

improved upon.

 The company should identify the untapped area and start their operation in

those areas

 The company should include Kinley in the RED score tracking which will make

the retailer to compulsory to keep Kinley in the outlet, thus Kinley will be

automatically be benefited from it.

82
LIMITATIONS

83
LIMITATIONS

 The retailers in many cases reluctant to answered many questions.

 The respondents may be biased on influenced by some other factors.

 Time and money were the greatest limitation in carrying out the survey.

 A number of retailers (pan-shop) being illiterate, it took us lot of time in

collecting information.

 The mere information which we get from the retailers is not sufficient to arrive at

a conclusion.

 The seasonal changes affect the sell.

CONCLUSION

85
4.1 CONCLUSION

The summer training project has been a sensational and awful experience for me

as it has given us a handful of knowledge in the field of marketing, thanks to

General Manager for providing me with this wonderful opportunity to work in

this vivid research study. I have learnt a lot from this project. The confidence has

been really boosted with this project as it gave me a chance to interact with the

people during the survey. I learnt how the marketing people work in the market

to achieve there targets, and how they sale their goods and convince the customer.

The project has provided me with the valuable insight into marketing tactics and

promotional strategies to make the people aware of the product. I have realized,

that at the end of the day in marketing field hard work pays and has got a major

attribute towards success.

The packaged drinking water is flourishing at rapid pace. Since the demand of water

is going to remain as perennial, so the market is not going to perish, thanks to

the paucity of water in certain areas of vijay nagar ghaziabad which has resulted

an increase

86
in the demand of packaged drinking water. Since summer season thrives for longer

period of time it has boosted the sales of packaged drinking water, as water is the

best medium to quench ones thrust. Thus it can be aptly said that this market is

growing day by day and is going to generate attractive avenues of increasing their

market share and profitability for the company in the coming years
