Many of the streets throughout northeast Hinsdale were flooded after a Saturday afternoon rainfall. Several longtime residents said they had never seen anything like it. Some speculated that the Tollway’s work along Flagg Creek might have contributed to the flooding. Please read the story on Page 3 for more information.

Arshia Alahi, Erin Bass (Advisor) University of Nebraska Omaha, Fall 2018 COCA-COLA’S FUTURE GROWTH STRATEGY: DIVERSIFICATION? The year 1886 was the birth year of the world renowned, mega-cap company Coca-Cola Co. it all began when a pharmacist named John Pemberton was experimenting with carbonated beverages and created a medicinal drink to sell to drug storesi. The first ever Coca Cola was made with cocaine and wine, but later the cocaine was substituted out with the Kola nut to bypass the alcohol restriction in 1885. Due to the use of the Kola Nut in the syrup mixture, Frank M Robinson, the first Marketer of Coca Cola coined the name Coca Colaii, which quickly started to gain popularity. In fact the word Coca-Cola is the second most used and understood word after the word “Okay” worldwideiii. -

Trends & Things The latest trends in marketing, advertising & creativity Coconut Water A growing new market in the UK ©2012 Creative Orchestra Creative Orchestra Advertising & Brand Marketing www.creativeorchestra.com Researched and written by Caryn Coley & Chris Arnold with additional material from Vita Coco. The expanding coconut water market | 3 Trends & Things The latest trends in marketing, advertising & creativity from creativeorchestra.com Coconut water We’re all aware of the sentiment behind ‘you are what you eat’ but increasingly consumers are concerned with the concept of ‘you are what you drink’. With a growing awareness of health issues most of us are thinking twice about what we put into our bodies, be it food or drink, and that’s now big business. Coconut water is one of the fastest growing beverage categories in the US and UK (estimated to reach $1bn soon) due to its natural hydrating qualities, great taste and nutritional benefits, not to mention the large number of celebrities drinking it. It is a great source of nutrients, contains calcium and magnesium, and the same amount of heart healthy potassium as a banana or a glass of orange juice. And that’s just a few of its ‘superdrink’ claims. With a mass appeal to ethical and health conscious consumers and those leading an activity lifestyle, and some are predicting it could overtake the sales of orange juice (as has already happened in Brazil) it’s no wonder big brands like Pepsi & Coke are getting in on the act. There are now 250 companies that have a beverage with some form of coconut water in it. -
Departmental Guidelines for Purchasing Coca-Cola Products
Departmental Guidelines for Purchasing Coca-Cola Products The following guidelines are intended to provide assistance for individuals purchasing Coca-Cola products for departmental use using any Texas Tech University funds. The Procurement Department has made every effort to ensure that the guidelines are in compliance with University operating policies and the exclusive contract the University has with Coca-Cola. 1. Departmental purchases of Coca-Cola products are not subject to university bidding requirements as the university has an exclusive contract with Coca-Cola. a. Distribution, sale or purchase of non-Coke products by the university is prohibited as this violates the generous sponsorship agreement Texas Tech University has with Coca-Cola. b. This rule also applies to single bottled water (32 ounces or less) or other beverages that are donated and includes off-campus events as long as the University is associated with the event. c.
