Robinson, chose the name for the drink and penned it in the flowing script that became
the Coca-Cola trademark. Pemberton originally touted his drink as a tonic for most
common ailments, basing it on cocaine from the coca leaf and caffeine -rich extracts of
the kola nut ; the cocaine was removed from Coca-Cola’s formula in about 1903.
Pemberton sold his syrup to local soda fountains, and, with advertising, the drink
became phenomenally successful. By 1891 another Atlanta pharmacist, Asa Griggs
Candler (1851–1929), had secured complete ownership of the business (for a total cash
outlay of $2,300 and the exchange of some proprietary  rights), and he incorporated the

6. Acquisitions –Coca-Cola has a long list of strategic and profitable acquisitions
including Costa coffee chain, Fair life (Milk Products), Fuze Tea, AdeS, and many
more. Through these acquisitions, Coca-Cola expanded its ready-to-drink beverage portfolio.
[2]

Weaknesses –
No healthy products (Introduce new product line – healthy products ) - Negative publicity
(Improve their publicity)
Coca cola have not yet been involved in producing healthy products so this is considered a
weakness for the company. Additionally, there have been many rumors about the negative
effects that can be caused when drinking coke, in 2007 there were rumors about having
pesticides in the coke (Vedwan, 2007) whereas in 2017, they have been criticized for misleading
marketing (Fantozzi, 2017). This has a huge impact on the publicity of the company.
1. Aggressive competition with Pepsi – Pepsi isbiggest rival of Coca-Cola. Had it not
been Pepsi, Coca-Cola would have been the clear in market leader in the beverage.
2. Product diversification – Coca-Cola has low product diversification.and Where Pepsi has
launched many snacks items like the Lays and Kurkure, Coca-Cola is lagging in this
segment. It gives Pepsi leverage over Coca-Cola.
3. Health concerns –Carbonated drinks are one of the major sources of  sugar intake. It results
in two grave health issues – obesity and diabetes. Coca-Cola is the biggest manufacturer of
carbonated beverages. Many health experts have prohibited the use of these soft drinks. It is
a controversial issue for the company. However, Coca-Cola hasn’t devised any health
alternative or solution for this problem yet.
4. Lawsuits – Trust is undermined whenever the company is accused of wrongdoing. Coca
Cola is facing a patent infringement lawsuit for using a dispenser that can recognize users
and customize drinks based on their preferences.

Opportunities –
Introduce new product line – healthy products - Improve their publicity
Coca Cola can introduce new products and diversify their current offerings and overcome their
weakness. As the company already have their brand identity, customers, manufacturing, and
evaluation to support them. It’s possible to find niches that are not used by their competitors to
develop products. They can focus on the healthy snacks/drinks area as people have become more
health conscious nowadays. This will aid in overcoming their weakness which is lack of healthy
products. Referring to their weakness of negative publicity, Coca cola can overcome this news
by creating positive campaigns that aids the environment and the society. These campaigns
spread around the world positively and therefore consumers forget about the negative news and
focus on their social and environmental contributions.
1. Introduce new products and diversify its segments – Coca-Cola has the opportunity to
introduce new offerings in health and food segments just like Pepsi. It can contribute to their
revenue, and they can branch out from carbonated drinks.
2. Increase presence in developing nations – Many regions with hot climate have the highest
consumption for cold drinks. Thus, increasing presence in such emerging markets can be
excellent – Middle Eastern and African countries are a good example.
3. Bring advanced supply chain system – Coca Cola’s business is entirely dependent upon
logistics and supply chain. Transportation costs and fuel prices are always on the rise. Thus,
coming up with some advanced and improved systems for distribution can be an opportunity.
4. Packaged drinking water – Coca-Cola owns several packaged drinking water brands
like Kinley. There is a great potential for expansion in this segment for Coca-Cola. There is
an opportunity to expand and bring more healthy drinks in the market to avoid people’s
criticism.
5. Expand through Acquisition – Although different sectors offer lucrative opportunities for
growth, quick entry into these markets can be a challenge. Recently, Coca-Cola’s growth was
driven by some of its recent acquisitions like Costa Coffee, Aha sparkling water and it can do
it again. It has the financial resources to acquire startups or SMBs in emerging markets and
exploit the numerous opportunities they present.

Threats –
Competition - Change in customers tastes
Having customer loyalty because of the taste of Coca cola is one of the important factors for
their success but this can be a main threat as well as the customers taste can change and therefore
the demand will fall. Another threat of Coca cola is the competition, having strong marketing
strategies and global distribution networks increases the threat from the competitors as there are
many new entrants and existing competitors tend to try harder in marketing and spreading their
word across the global.
1. Water usage controversy – Coca-Cola has faced many criticisms over its water
management issue. Many social and environmental groups have claimed that the company
has a vast consumption of water in water-scarce regions. Besides, people have alleged that
Coca-Cola is polluting water and mixing pesticides in water to clear contaminants.
2. Pollution Lawsuit – Coke and three other companies are being sued by a California
environmental group for contributing to plastic pollution. In the lawsuit, Coca-Cola is singled
out for misleading the public about the recyclability of its single-use plastic bottles.
3. Direct and indirect competition – Although direct competition from Pepsi is clear in the
market, however, there are many other companies which are indirectly competing with Coca-
Cola. Starbucks, Costa Coffee, Tropicana, Lipton juices, and Nescafe, are the indirect
competitors of Coca-Cola which can threaten its market position.
4. Economic Uncertainty – The recent events have negatively affected business operations,
supply and distribution chains, and devastated revenues of many global companies. In
2020, Coca Cola’s revenues declined drastically as restaurants, theaters, and other venues
that contribute about half of its revenue remained closed due to the global crisis.
5. Increasing Health-Consciousness – Consumers are increasingly adopting healthy lifestyles
and avoid products with unhealthy ingredients. The increase in health-consciousness can
reduce Coca Cola’s sales and profits as customers migrate to healthier options offered by
competitors
