On the basis of the information obtained after the interviewing outlet owners, their views or opinions are assessed and suggestions were given to company which will help them for expanding their business in various kind of market. y Observation and Findings: Through the study of Horizontal Expansion strategy follow the company led me to the following findings: y Outlet owner are more concern about schemes like offers on cases, under crown schemes etc and Pepsi is providing them better schemes then Coke. y Distributer is more concern about Wholesaler rather than Retailer. y As per policy, both companies are not entitled to collect competitor empty bottles from the shops but Pepsi is not adhering to it. Therefore this hampering the business of coca-cola in the market as Pepsi is more preferable to carry on the business in a suave manner. y It has been found that the shopkeepers has strongly responded to the option of switching to the brand (Pepsi) when it has been inquired that what will they do in order to continue trading at the time when their preferred brand is not been delivered properly. y The shopkeepers have nodded to the view that schemes offered to them as per the policies of the company plays a significant role in increasing profitability. y As per the notes taken apart from the data in the questionnaire it has been discovered that PEPSI offers more schemes to the shopkeepers who is vindictive for the company. 7 8 CHPTER NO CONTENTS PAGES EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Introduction to the subject 1.2 Objectives of the study 1.3 Selection of the topic 1.4 Need of the study 1.5 Objectives of the study 1.6 Scope of horizontal expansation 2 COMPANY PROFILE 2.1 Introduction to company 2.2 Vision and Mission 2.3 Product Profile 3 LITERATURE REVIEW 4 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY 4.1 Methods of sampling 4.2 Data Collection 4.3 Sample size 4.4 Data analysis Techniques 4.5 Limitation of the project 5 DATA ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION 5.1 Tabulation of Data 5.2 Graphical Representation 6 CONCLUSION Observation & Findings Suggestions 7 Bibliography Annexure 9 dU T INRO C ION 10 1.1: Introduction to the subject:- What is Parameter to Increase Sale? The parameters adopt by coca-cola to increase its sales are as follows y horizontal Expansion y Under 40 outlets y New Product Development HORIZONTAL EXPANSION Expansion of business capacity through the absorption of facilities or buildings as well as through the acquisition of new equipment to handle an increased volume in sales in which the business is already engaged. In microeconomics and strategic management, the term Horizontal Expansion describes a type of ownership and control. It is a strategy used by a business or corporation that seeks to sell a type of product in numerous markets. Horizontal Expansion in marketing is much more common than Vertical Expansion is in production. Horizontal Expansion occurs when a firm is being taken over by, or merged with, another firm which is in the same industry and in the same stage of production as the merged firm, e.g. Pepsi has adopted strategy of Vertical Expansion by which Pepsi wants to improve it¶s sale from Coke monopoly outlets, means Coke¶s monopoly outlets are being taken over by Pepsi now in this condition to improve it¶s sale Coke ne ed to open new outlets which is called Horizontal Expansion Strategy. A monopoly created through Horizontal Expansion is called a Horizontal Monopoly. This is the expansion of a firm within an industry in which it is already active for the purpose of increasing its share of the market for a particular product or service. 11 UNDER 4O OUTLETS The strategy refers to increase the performance of exiting outlets whose performance are decreasing in last few months so that its helps to increase the sales of the company. The strategy includes some parameters which is adopted to improve the performance. The parameters mainly focus on Vesicooler, Availability of the product and Activation NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT Coca cola has launched its NPD before four months in march 2010 as MMNF(minute maidnimbu fresh) before MMNF, it has already launched MMPO (minute maid pulpy orange) as its NPD which was not successful as MMNF due to some reasons like less promotion activities etc. MMNF & MMPO both are variety of juice in coca cola.

  • Coca-Cola La Historia Negra De Las Aguas Negras
    Coca-Cola La historia negra de las aguas negras Gustavo Castro Soto CIEPAC COCA-COLA LA HISTORIA NEGRA DE LAS AGUAS NEGRAS (Primera Parte) La Compañía Coca-Cola y algunos de sus directivos, desde tiempo atrás, han sido acusados de estar involucrados en evasión de impuestos, fraudes, asesinatos, torturas, amenazas y chantajes a trabajadores, sindicalistas, gobiernos y empresas. Se les ha acusado también de aliarse incluso con ejércitos y grupos paramilitares en Sudamérica. Amnistía Internacional y otras organizaciones de Derechos Humanos a nivel mundial han seguido de cerca estos casos. Desde hace más de 100 años la Compañía Coca-Cola incide sobre la realidad de los campesinos e indígenas cañeros ya sea comprando o dejando de comprar azúcar de caña con el fin de sustituir el dulce por alta fructuosa proveniente del maíz transgénico de los Estados Unidos. Sí, los refrescos de la marca Coca-Cola son transgénicos así como cualquier industria que usa alta fructuosa. ¿Se ha fijado usted en los ingredientes que se especifican en los empaques de los productos industrializados? La Coca-Cola también ha incidido en la vida de los productores de coca; es responsable también de la falta de agua en algunos lugares o de los cambios en las políticas públicas para privatizar el vital líquido o quedarse con los mantos freáticos. Incide en la economía de muchos países; en la industria del vidrio y del plástico y en otros componentes de su fórmula. Además de la economía y la política, ha incidido directamente en trastocar las culturas, desde Chamula en Chiapas hasta Japón o China, pasando por Rusia.
