Read the following case study for Coca-Cola and prepare a SWOT analysis for it.
Coca-Cola is a highly popular brand with a unique brand identity. Its soft drinks are the most-selling drinks in history, one of the 7+most renowned brands with the highest brand equity. It was also awarded ‘highest brand equity award’ in 2011. It is sold in more than 200 countries with 9 billion servings per day of Company products. It has introduced more than 500 new products globally. Some of these are variations of Coca-Cola beverage, like Coco Cola Vanilla and Cherry Coca-Cola. Its brands are known to touch every lifestyle and demography.
Coca-Cola is considered one of US’s most emotionally-connected brands. This valuable brand is associated with ‘happiness’ and has strong customer loyalty. Customers can quickly identify their particular taste. Finding its substitutes is difficult for them. Moreover, Coca-Cola and Fanta have a huge fan following than other beverage names in the industry. Coca-Cola is listed as the 3rd Best Global Brand on Interbrand’s annual ranking. Having an estimated brand value of $79.96 billion, it has retained the top position for many years.
However, 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.
Out of Coca-Cola and Pepsi, the only two largest manufacturers of soft drinks in the beverage segment, Coca-Cola has the largest market share. Coke, Sprite, Diet Coke, Fanta, Limca, and Maaza are the highest growth drivers for Coca-Cola. It also has the most efficient and most extensive distribution network in the world. The company has nearly 250 bottling partners globally.
Pepsi is the biggest rival of Coca-Cola. Had it not been Pepsi, Coca-Cola would have been the clear market leader in the beverage. Coca-Cola has low product diversification. Where Pepsi has launched many snacks items like Lays and Kurkure, Coca-Cola is lagging in this segment. It gives Pepsi leverage over Coca-Cola. Coca-Cola has the chance 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. Coca-Cola owns several packaged drinking water brands like Kinley. There is a great potential for expansion in this segment for Coca-Cola. Yet, there is a way to expand and bring healthier drinks in the market to avoid people’s criticism.
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. In addition, Greenpeace censured Coca-Cola in its published report in 2017 for its use of single-use plastic bottles. It has also been criticized over its recycling and renewable sources.
Many regions with hot climate have the highest consumption for cold drinks. Thus, increasing presence in such locations can be excellent – Middle Eastern and African countries are a good example. Coca-Cola acquired AdeS in 2016. AdeS is the largest soy-based beverage brand in Latin America. Through this acquisition, Coca-Cola expanded its ready-to-drink beverage portfolio.
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 a way out from this problem.
