Perfection was the watchword we had in our mind when we started working on this case-study. However people generally agree that man can only strive to approach excellence but never actually achieve it. Exquisite perfection is rather a trait of God, and by his grace, we have tried very hard to make this report an excellent one.

We would like to thank Sir M. A. BUTT for his instructions which he gave to us, which could not have been successful without his dedicated attention & guidance.

We are grateful to our teacher for providing us such a meaningful oriented chance to explore new dimensions.

History
Our brand name in the world got its starts in an Atlanta Pharmacy, where it sold for 5 cents a glass. On January 31st, 1893; the name Coca-Cola was registered as a trademark. In 1895; our company had established syrup plants in Chicago, Dallas and Los-Angeles. In the 1920s; we pursued aggressive global branding, finding such creative placement for its logo as on dogsleds in Canada & on the walls of bullfighting arenas in Spain . Our companys popularity was fueled by colorful & persuasive advertising that cemented our company image

as All American beverage. After Vietnam War, we developed more globally aware advertising. Our companys early moves in restricted market such as China in 1978 & Soviet Un ion in 1979, bolstered our company image as global company image. We were voted the best-known and most admired brand in the world. We didnt institute a uniform marketing program in each of its global markets we only often tailored flavor, packaging, price & advertising in specific market. We hired local managers for sales and distribution of our companys products. To make our company products more relevant and well-positioned against the competitors, we uses different agencies in different company in order to make our brand local free. Moreover the marketing-mix is designed in each country to stress that coke is positioned positively on attributes relevant to local competitive products. Hence, our brand looks similar across the globe. In the year of 2000, we adopt the new-mantra; think local, act local, the results of this hyperlocal focus were missed the sales targets. So, in 2002, we formed 100-persons team on the request of the local managers, which were the centerpiece of the global marketing groups, setting strategies, hiring agencies and sharing best practice among the local managers.

Marketing & Branding Strategic Objective

Our local marketing strategy enables Coke to listen to all the voices around the world asking for beverages that span the entire spectrum of tastes and occasions. What people want in a beverage is a reflection of who they are, where they live, how they work and play, and how they relax and recharge. Whether you're a student in the 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 bottled water after a run together, we're there for you. We are determined not only to make great drinks, but also to contribute to communities around the world through our commitments to education, health, wellness, and diversity.
