ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION
Prelude
For generations, the simple pleasure of drinking Coca-Cola has been associated with special
times, special places and timeless moments but also with the satisfying experience of everyday
life. That is the magic of Coke. Coca-Cola, the brand is the heart of moon beverages Limited.
It has always been and always will be. Coca-Cola, Fanta, Sprite& Kinley create the magic to
provide consumers with special moments. Consumers of all ages want great tasting beverages
that also provide nutrients for healthy growth and to make them feel their best. Coca-Cola
compliments and shares the best moments of all consumers!
A customer is generally understood to be the person who makes the decision to purchase a
product or who pays for it. In fact, products are often bought by one person for consumption
by another, therefore the customer and the consumer need not be the same person. The Coca
Cola Company who is manufacturer, retailer and marketer of the non-alcoholic beverage
concentrates and syrups focuses on the consumers rather than the customers. Being a company,
which is American by origin and with a rich history starting from the year 1886 it must have
been a very dynamic firm which changes its strategies and tweaks its products according to the
needs and wants of the consumers.
In the recent market Coca cola has identified what the customer’s value in the market. “This
generation values the openness to new culture and sense. Even though they value new cultures
they have a love for their local products and want to support their neighborhoods and
communities and keep the wealth within their region itself. In a way you can say that they are
moving back to a collectivist culture. With the collectivist mindset they want to revive folk
traditions and rituals starting from food to spirituality. Customers now follow the YOLO
concept where you only live once and they want to experience personalized by unique
experiences which allow them to express their identity. The customers have also become health
conscious because of their increase in awareness towards the world as a whole. This has made
customers scrutinize every ingredient present in the products they consume and makes them
weigh their pros and cons before consuming it again. Consumers now value their time; they
believe time is money and have a burning desire to be hyper productive especially when it
comes to their shopping habits and way of communication. Consumers want to be productive
but at the same time they want to have more leisure in their lives and more moments of pleasure
and even indulgence. The utmost expectations from the brands they consume is to engage with
the brand through new experiences and conversations. These insights are helping Coca cola to
become a total beverage company.
The main objective of this study is to identify the marketing strategies of moon beverages
Limited-Coca Cola Beverage Unit. The specific objectives of the study are given below:

Scope
Due to several unavoidable situation and reality, the extent of this report has been compromised
up to certain limit. The boundaries of this report are thus:
• This study focuses on moon beverages Limited-Beverage Unit especially for sales
&marketing team,
• This study will focus on the value chain activity of the beverage production unit of
AML, from production to promotion, and the key factors affecting those activities.
• The reports will also focus on the strong logistic and manpower to ensure the marketing
strategy of its beverage product to each corner of the market place.
Limitations
The extent and limit of the study were constricted due to some of the following considerations:
• AML doesn't agree to provide me their official papers & documents as they are one of
the renowned in Bangladesh and they are competing with their competitors.
• They don't provide their financial report for some obligations, for which I had to collect
it only by personal interview.
• I got the information after a little bit late than I expected. For that, I have to make the
report in a very short time.
• Time limitations.

NEW WATERTREATMENT PLANT
Raw water is taken from different sources and stored in storage tank. The plant has
three storage tank. Presurized Sand Filters (PSF) consist of multiple layer of
sand,pebbles and granules with variety in size and specific gravity. PSF is
highlyrecommendedfortheremovalofsuspendedsolids&undissolvedimpuritieslikedustpa
rticles & heavy metals etc. PSF reduces turbidity. PSF is an ideal solution for the
systems with high sediment,silt,sand,and turbidity.
Activated Carbon Filters (ACF) can effectively reduce some of these organic chemicals
as well as certain harmless taste- and odor-producing compounds. The medium for an
activated carbon filter can be one of many carbon-based materials, but is typically
petroleum coke and bituminous coal. The length of contact time between the water and
the carbon which is determined by the rate of water flow also affects contaminant
adsorption. Greater contact time can allow for greater adsorption of contaminants.
Also,the amount of carbon in the filter affects
contaminantremoval.Forinstance,lesscarbonisgenerallyrequiredto remove tasteandodor-
producing compounds.
Dealkaliser removes the alkanity of the water by the adsortion of
carbonates,bicarbonates,hydroxidesonthe resins.
Degasser is used to remove gasses from drilling fluid which could otherwise
formbubbles. It removes the carbonic acid formed by breaking it to CO2 and
H2O.Water isnowstored in the Blending Tank where chlorinedosing is done.
Water is filtered by Ultrafiltration for the removal of particulates and
macromoleculesfrom raw water to produce potable water. It has been used to either
replace
existingsecondary(coagulation,flocculation,sedimentation)andtertiaryfiltration(sandfiltrat
ionand chlorination) systems employed in water treatment plant. UF processes are
currentlypreferred overtraditionaltreatmentmethodsforthefollowing reasons:
1)Nochemicalsrequired(asidefromcleaning)2)Constantproduct

3)Capable of exceeding regulatory standards of water quality, achieving 90-
100%pathogen removal
Now, treated water is stored in the Storage Tank . After this the water is sent to
Leadand Lag ACF tank. Water is then passed through 5µ filter for removal of all
unwantedand harmful microbes. UV removes all microbes by killing them by DNA
denaturation.Water is then finally passed through 3µ filter which gives water sparkling
appearance.Water is then sent through 1µ filter. Water from here is supplied to various
productionlines.

In 1997 the company established another bottling plant at Chittagong. This state-of-the-art
RGB (returnable glass bottle) bottling plant of 650 BPM capacities is the most modern plant in
the country, equipped with straight-line technology from Germany. This plant was established

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
After independence the food habit of Bangladeshi people has been changed a lot. Besides our
traditional food consumer of Bangladesh like to take western food also after 1980s. As a result
of global marketing this was not too hard for the consumers. Different foreign food companies
were established in Bangladesh. Beverage industry is one of them. But more interestingly we
don’t know beverage is also our cultural food because beverage doesn’t mean only carbonated
drinks. Yoghurt, soup and lacchi are also beverage of our own tradition which consumed for
the last 100 years in Bangladesh. But carbonated beverage is new in Bangladesh and today our
research is on carbonated beverage market in Bangladesh and consumer reaction to it.
Carbonated beverage entered into our market in the later part of 1980. At that time there were
only few companies in Bangladesh. But by the change of time and western culture influences
it’s become very popular in Bangladesh. By year 2000 more than 12 Beverage Company
operating business in Bangladesh and most of them are foreign companies.
The rivals for the beverage unit of AML range from the rivals producing other carbonated
beverages as well as from the producers of other beverages such as Fruit Juices, Flavored Milk,
Synthetic Drinks and Pure Drinking Water. Notably, the major rivals of AML are:
MARKETING STRATEGIES
The positioning strategy used by Coca-Cola has allowed them to paint a suitable image of
themselves in the mind of their customers as the only “Real One”. They have designed their
positioning strategy so as to draw an effective picture of their products offered for their
customer. Once they had decided the market segment they wanted to target and compete in,
they clearly developed a picture of that targeted market segment and properly defined their
products as part of their positioning strategy. Through their positions strategy they emphasized
on their distinct and unique characteristics with relation to their competitive brands stressing
on their individuality. They associated their product with the customer’s values and knowledge
highlighting their benefits. Their positioning strategy also included comparison of Coca-Cola’s
products with those of their rivals, like Pepsi, so that drive their customers to believe that Coca-
Cola’s products had higher quality and standard.
The Coca-Cola brand has turned out to be one of the most recognizable and a popular brand of
all times and their beverage company is among the world’s largest beverage companies. They
have become a successful brand since they have used a number of different brand management
strategies depending on the market situation and target market. The strategies include hybrid,
manufacturer, and individual, private, family and generic brand management strategies.
However, the most utilized brand management strategy she used is the individual brand
management strategy since all of their major products have individual brand names, like Sprite,
Fanta& Kinley. Coca-Cola’s world-wide recognition comes from the fact that they have spent
billions of dollars to promote and develop their trademark and brand name. Due to this today
more than 95% of our global population recognizes Coca-Cola along with their special writing
and their prominent red and white color.
As a matter of fact, Coca-Cola Company came into being in 1986 and within the past 2 decades,
it has been able to establish itself as one of the leading beverage companies in the world. The
brand used a number of modern marketing techniques which has immensely benefited the
business. This includes aiming their marketing concept totally towards their customers and
allowing the focus of their customers to percolate trough almost every department whether
human resource, production or finance. Another beneficial modern marketing technique
includes taking of all of their important decisions with relevance to the existing market
considerations, position and segmentation. Apart from placing importance on market
implications, there are 3 techniques of modern marketing which the company can highly benefit
from – focusing on customers, coordination and profit orientation. The company’s focus should
always be on the consumer’s viewpoint so that they can totally understand whichproduct or
service the buyer needs. Since the marketing mix is an interconnected system, the entire
marketing program needs to be considered and designed as a whole.
In addition, the marketing techniques used by Coca-Cola allow them to listen to the needs and
demands of the people all over the world who want beverages that extend over a wide variety
of occasions and tastes. Their marketing strategy has allowed them to produce great beverages
which contribute towards each and every community of our world. Their marketing techniques
display their commitment towards diversity, health, education and wellness, thus establishing
them as one of the most successful and powerful brands of all time. Coca-Cola’s marketing
techniques consists of an extremely efficient marketing mix strategy combining product, price,
promotion and place. They not only provide the customers with their products, soft drinks, but
also several services, like movies and holidays, allowing the consumers to be completely
satisfied. Their main pricing strategy includes penetration pricing which has allowed them to
grab a footing in their target market by winning a major part of the market share. After
establishing customer loyalty, Coca-Cola then slowly raised their product prices. Coca-Cola
has always been among the fore-runners in gimmicks and advertising styles and techniques
which fall under promotion of marketing techniques. They have effectively use their
promotional strategies for persuading their customers into buying their original products and
trying the new ones. They have used a combination of public relations, advertising, personal
selling and sales promotion as a part of their marketing techniques. Coca-Cola have also
carefully chosen the place or distribution techniques for their company. Their techniques
include direct, selective, intensive and exclusive distribution. It is completely apparent from
their widespread popularity and reputation that these marketing strategies used by Coca-Cola
has helped them establish themselves as among the most powerful and successful brand of
modern times, one which will fortunately be a complex yet vital part of our modern world
culture.
In a highly competitive world such as ours effective branding and positioning strategies are
extremely essential since it plays as a major force for the company and allows it to retain its
stronghold all over the world. The branding strategies of a company accurately define the
individuality of the company, its products and services. Every company, whether small or large,
consider their branding strategies to be an important part of the entire business. Through their
branding strategies they establish themselves as a brand name which represents quality and
standard to their customers. A brand name helps the differentiation among customers based on
their unique qualities from other similar products.
Additionally, the positioning strategy of a company helps it to establish the profitability of their
various products and services. In order for a company to be successful simply having a quality
product is not enough in our capitalistic world economy. The products and services must have
a distinct and clear image and should be offered to the target customers at competitive prices.
This is what a positioning strategy creates. Therefore, positioning strategies helps companies
create a useful and desired image of the product for the customers, producing a direct contact
between them and the company.
The Coca-Cola Company aims to be globally known, they do this by targeting different areas
across the globe with different products, gaining their brand name and popularity. All the
bottling partners work closely with their customers such as convenience stores, grocery stores,
eating & drinking stores and modern trade to create and use localized strategies developed in
partnership with the Company. Their competition with other beverage companies are also
narrowed down as they own various brands that could be possible competition. For example,
the company sells Coke without the competition of other popular soft drink brands like Sprite
and Fanta because the company owns those brands as well. The company often reviews and
evaluates their business plans and performance to improve their earnings and analyze their
competitive position in the market. They make decisions in realigning their business models to
match the objectives of the company by using strategies and tactics in the analysis of their
performance.

CompanyHistory
The beverage industry is a major driver of economic growth. A National Council of Applied Economic
Research (NCAER) study on the carbonated soft-drink industry indicates that this industry has an
output multiplier effect of 2.1. This means thatif one unit of output of beverage is increased, the direct
and indirect effect on the economy will be twice of that. In terms of employment, the NCAER study
notes that “anextraproductionof1000cases generates an extra employment of410man days.”
As a Company, our products are an integral part of the micro economy particularly in small towns
and villages, contributing to creation of jobs and growth in GDP. Coca-Cola in India is amongst the

18) MINUTE MAID
Water used in the beverage industry has to be treated to remove undesirable substances and to control
the alkalinity. A drink made from untreated water or water of poor quality would result in off tastes in
the finished beverage.
Carbon dioxide is added to most soft drinks. It dissolves readily in cold water
underpressureandgivesasparklingappearancetothedrinkwhenpoured.Italsoenhancesth e flavour and
gives a pleasant refreshing 'lift' to the drink. Carbon dioxide also contributes to the inhibition of
micro-organisms, particularly at higher carbonation volume.
Flavouring syrup is normally a concentrated solution of a sweetener (sugar or artificial),an acidulant
for tartness, flavouring, and a preservative when necessary. Theflavouring syrup is made in two steps.
First, a “simple syrup” is prepared by making asolution of water and sugar. This simple sugar solution
can be treated with carbon andfiltered if the sugar quality is poor. All of the other ingredients are then
added in a precise order tomakeup what is called a“finished syrup.”
Concentrate is an essential component in all soft drinks. Without the addition ofitmost drinks
would taste like sweetned acidified water. It is supplied to all Coca- cola plants in India
fromPune.
Mango or Orange Pulp is used in making Maaza and other Minute Maid products.Mangoes used are
Alfanso and Totapuri. The product mango pulp is obtainedbyprocessingofsound,mature,ripened Totapuri
mangoes possessing the characteristics flavourand colour.

tank. Presurized Sand Filters (PSF) consist of multiple layer of sand,pebbles and granules with
variety in size and specific gravity. PSF is
highlyrecommendedfortheremovalofsuspendedsolids&undissolvedimpuritieslikedustpa rticles &
heavy metals etc. PSF reduces turbidity. PSF is an ideal solution for the systems with high
sediment,silt,sand,and turbidity.
Activated Carbon Filters (ACF) can effectively reduce some of these organic chemicalsas well as
certain harmless taste- and odor-producing compounds. The medium for an activated carbon filter can
be one of many carbon-based materials, but is typically petroleum coke and bituminous coal. The
length of contact time between the water andthe carbon which is determined by the rate of water flow
also affects contaminant adsorption. Greater contact time can allow for greater adsorption of
contaminants.
Also,the amount of carbon in the filter affects
contaminantremoval.Forinstance,lesscarbonisgenerallyrequiredto remove tasteandodor-producing

COCA-COLA
Coca-Cola is the world’s favorite soft drink and has been enjoyed since 1886. It is now the
most recognized trademark in the world, available everywhere in the world. Coca-Cola was
introduced in Bangladesh in 1963 and has been an accelerator for spreading joy ever since.
Secret of Coca-Cola formula: The formula for making Coca-Cola is a trade secret. The
company has protected the special taste of Coca-Cola for more than 132 years. Only The Coca-
Cola Company (TCCC) knows how to make Coca-Cola. That way, when someone buy Coca-
Cola drinks, you can be sure you’re getting the same delicious and refreshing experience time
and time again!
The most closely guarded and best-kept secret in the food and drinks industry, the Coca-
Cola formula is a complex blend of natural flavors. Although it has been frequently imitated,
it has never been replicated.
Only a few people know the secret formula of Coca-Cola in the world. Dr. John S. Pemberton
invented Coca-Cola in 1886. Since then, the formula has been kept under wraps, shared only
with a small group. The secret formula of Coca-Cola is written on a piece of paper which is
kept in a vault in the United States. Anyone can visit of Coca-Cola the Vault of the Secret
Formula at the World of Coca-Cola in Atlanta.

offers the same refreshing taste but without the calories. As with the classic version of Sprite,
Sprite Zero Sugar is also caffeine free. Sprite Zero Sugar was launched in Bangladesh in 2017.
Kinley
Kinley packaged water, was launched in india in December 2016 and comes with the assurance
of safety from The Coca-Cola Company. Kinley undergoes a reverse-osmosis technique along
with the latest technology to ensure purity of our product. Because we believethat right to pure,
safe drinking water is fundamental.
The prices of Coca-Cola products vary according to the brand and the size. Each sub-brand of
coca cola has different pricing strategy. Their pricing strategy is based on the competitors
pricing, Pepsi is the direct competitor to coke.

For more than hundred centuries The Coca-Cola Company has dominated the world’s market
for beverage. The main products of The Coca-Cola Company like Coca-Cola, Sprite, Fanta,
Kinley, etc. are available at any location in the world. Many factors contribute to Coca-cola
Company’s enduring success of high-quality products, feasible and efficient manufacturing and
steady stream if innovative new products, and a lean organization that makes them responsive
to customer needs. The biggest reason for Coca-Cola Company’s success has beentheir system
of distribution & product support and the close customer relationship. The backbone of that
system is their uncountable dealers around the world who sell their products. Coca-Cola
Company and its dealers work in close harmony to find better ways to bring values tocustomer.
The close relationship between Coca-Cola Company and its dealers come down to more thanjust formal
contracts and business agreements.
Dealer profitability: When times are good, Coca-Cola Company shares the bounty with dealers rather
than trying to grab all those riches for itself. When times are bad, Coca-Cola Company emerged with the
distribution systemintact and its competitivepositionstronger thanever.
The Coca-Cola Company sells its products by bottling and canning operations. The distributors
reached the coke to the wholesalers and the wholesalers reached it to retailers. And at last the
customers buy coca cola from retailer shop.

CHAPTER - 5
❖ CONCLUSION
It was observed that Coca-Cola has been perceived quite positively as it has been projected.
People are aware of the Brand & Awareness of Coca-Cola is quite high in the market. When a
product is launched, avid Coke drinkers choose the product over any other competitor simply
because it's a Coca-Cola product and they trust it.
When people buy Coca-Cola, they are not just buying the beverage but also the image that goes
with it, therefore to have the price higher reiterates the fact that the product is of a better quality
than the rest and that the consumer is not cheap.
In modern trade (super market) and convenience stores Coca-Cola has their own fridge (cooler)
which contains only their products. There is little personal selling, but that is made up for in
public relations and corporate image. Coca-Cola sponsors a lot of events including sports and
recreational activities.
❖ Recommendations
The study has been concluded some recommendation for the Coca Cola Company, which are
following:
• According to the survey, conducted by the international in some places, people like
little bit sweeter Cola drink. So, for this Coca Cola company should produce their
product according to the local demand;
• Marketing team should try to increase the availability of Coca-Cola products in rural
areas.
