VI. Strengths and Weaknesses
i. Strengths: Coca –Cola is present in 200 countries
across the world. Chances are, any country that you
go to, you’ll find a Coca-Cola present in that
market. This vast global presence of Coca-Cola has
also contributed to the building of the mammoth
brand name.
ii. Weaknesses: Competition with Pepsi. Pepsi is a
thorn in the flesh for Coca-Cola. Coca-Cola would
have been the clear market leader had it not been for
Pepsi. The competition in these two brands is
immense and we don’t think Pepsi will give up so
easily.
