And their consumers, the people who eat and drink what they make, should get great quality and value every time they buy their brands. "Growth with Integrity" is an idea that binds them all together. They are focused and beautifully positioned to grow. And they continue to close in on their ultimate goal of being the world's very best consumer products company.

Social Aspects:
DOES PEPSI DONATE TO CHARITY?
Community involvement is important to Pepsi-Cola Company because their products touch the lives of so many people. That's why they make numerous inkind and monetary donations each year to support local and national charitable organizations.

DOES PEPSI SUPPORT THE ENVIRONMENT?


Pepsi-Cola has a strong history of caring for the environment. Their goal is to have the least possible impact on the environment, and so far they have been very successful. Among their environmentally friendly initiatives are the "Please Recycle" message on each and every container that they make, and

Pepsi Cola

their contributions to a number of programs designed to stop littering and promote recycling. Pepsi-Cola is committed to being an environmentally responsible corporate citizen. In their offices, they use their resources wisely and actively recycle cans and paper. They not only strive to meet local and state environmental laws, but also try to exceed them by being industry innovators. In 1995, Pepsi was one of only 20 companies honored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

WHAT'S FRESHNESS DATING?


At Pepsi-Cola, quality, taste and consumer satisfaction are their highest priorities. They take great care to ensure that Pepsi-Cola brands deliver the best taste available in soft drink refreshment. That's why since 1994, they have listed a freshness date on all of their packaging to ensure their loyal consumers can enjoy the best tasting beverages possible. While their products are never harmful when consumed after this date, they do recommend drinking the product by then to ensure its flavor is at its best. Also, by storing Pepsi in a cool place, great taste is guaranteed!

SHAREHOLDERS
PepsiCo (symbol: PEP) shares are traded principally on the New York Stock Exchange in the United States. The company is also listed on the Amsterdam, Chicago, Swiss and Tokyo stock exchanges. PepsiCo has consistently paid cash dividends since the corporation was founded.

Exceptional Innovation Capabilities


Without question, innovation is the single greatest driver of growth for PepsiCo and their product categories. After years of making innovation a high priority, PepsiCo has experience and capabilities unrivaled in their industry. Frito-Lay has by far the world's greatest institutional knowledge of snacks and snack consumption. Pepsi-Cola, a longtime leader in new products and packaging, recently added the creative resources of SoBe. And the combination of the Gatorade Sports Science Institute and the Tropicana Nutrition Center gives them unmatched expertise in the growing segment of "functional" beverages that offer nutrition or other health benefits consumers value. The beauty of innovation is the way it differentiates their products in the marketplace. New products and packages or changes to existing ones give consumers exciting new reasons to buy their brands. Equally important, innovation gives retailers a great new reason to feature them prominently. That's a big competitive advantage. So they grab every opportunity to differentiate their products through innovation. 22

Pepsi Cola

Differentiation also occurs in manufacturing. Frito-Lay patented a new process to produce more intense flavors in its Ruffles Flavor Rush snacks by coating the entire chip, front and back. For Tostitos Scoops, Frito-Lay developed technology to make tortilla chips, typically flat, in a threedimensional spoonlike shape suited to scooping salsa or dip. Sounds easy. It's not. New, more convenient packages also help them stand out from the competition. Tropicana's new 14-ounce plastic orange juice bottle is elegantly contoured to fit easily in the hand and the automobile cup holder. Similar thinking inspired Frito-Lay to create Go Snacks. These smaller versions of their traditional brands come in a plastic canister that also fits easily in hand and cup holder. On-the-go consumers can "pour" the snacks directly into their mouths. In one more example of innovative packaging, the Gatorade E.D.G.E. bottle is ergonomically designed for optimal thirst quenching. In a business where consumers demand great taste, innovative flavors also make their products distinctive. For example, Mountain Dew Code Red, a new version of Mountain Dew "with a rush of cherry flavor," hit the market in 2001 and became one of the most successful new soft drinks ever.

Water World - the battle for a global brand


The world's drinks giants Coca Cola and Pepsi are among the world's most recognised brand names. As the popularity of bottled mineral water continues to reach new highs and take share from these carbonates, questions of the first truly global water brand are beginning to surface. Among those best placed are Europe's big players. Can Evian, Volvic or Perrier create the Coke & Pepsi of the water world?

Current Corporate Strategy:


Growth and Integrity
The 2001 results show that people across this company recognize that the single biggest reason for the merger is growth. Growth, after all, is what PepsiCo is about. It always has been. Growth is important. But equally important is how they get there. Growth and integrity have gone together at Pepsi for as long as their existence. And they will do everything in their power to ensure that continues. In fact, they literally designed PepsiCo so they can fulfill their ambitions for growth without ever having to cut corners, compromise their integrity or otherwise violate the sacred trust placed in PepsiCo by their shareholders, their employees and so many others.

Built to Grow
It starts with a laser focus on "convenience." Convenient, easy-to-consume products are the fastest-growing part of the global food and beverage industry. Around the world, people are spending hundreds of billions of dollars each year on foods and drinks that fit their busy lifestyles. And they're spending more each year. It's a vast opportunity. It's also an area they know very well. They have been making and selling convenient products for decades. In that time they have become the leader in convenient foods and drinks in the United States and the world they compete in. Far more exciting, they are better equipped than any other company for continued success in this big, expanding worldwide market.

HOW DO they MAKE PEPSI?
Actually, there's no secret to how to make Pepsi (except for the recipe). But there is a system. And that system, plus a lot of hard work, is what enables Pepsi-Cola and the independent Pepsi-Cola bottlers all around the world to bring the consumes that high-quality, consistently refreshing Pepsi taste each time they open one of pepsi's products. The system starts with the finest ingredients available -- kola nuts, vanilla beans, flavor oils, citrus, sweeteners and the purest waters we can distill. Then they add the best technology and all the care we can muster to blend their ingredients. And during the 100-plus years they have been making soft drinks, they have also created their own exacting production and quality standards, monitored with constant testing to guarantee quality and consistency in their products. Finally, they have their own local distribution system. It's designed to make sure that the Pepsi consumers open at home is as fresh and delicious as it was when they sealed it at their plant. And it serves every city and town in the world.

QUALITY
At every level of Pepsi-Cola Company, they take great care to ensure that the highest standards are met in everything they do. In their products, packaging, marketing and advertising, they strive for excellence because their consumers expect and deserve nothing less. They promise to work toward continuous improvement in all areas of their organization. At every step of their manufacturing and bottling process, strict quality controls are followed to ensure that Pepsi-Cola products meet the same high standards of quality that consumers have come to expect and value from them. They also follow strict quality control procedures during the manufacturing and filling of their packages. Each bottle and can undergoes a thorough inspection and testing process. Containers are then rinsed and quickly filled through a high-speed, state-of-the-art process that helps prevent any foreign material from entering the product. Additional quality control measures help to ensure the integrity of Pepsi-Cola products throughout the distribution process, from warehouse to store shelf.

WHAT INGREDIENTS ARE IN PEPSI PRODUCTS?


They only use the finest ingredients to make Pepsi-Cola products. To guarantee their consumers consistent quality, each ingredient must pass Pepsi29

Strategic Marketing

Pepsi Cola

Cola's high standards, rigorous quality control tests and strict bottling procedures. All ingredients are listed on the label in order of decreasing amount. PepsiCola products contain natural flavors, including extracts of the kola nut, vanilla beans and flavor oils derived from natural sources such as citrus and other fruits. Caramel (made from corn sugar) adds color and flavor to our colas. Their ingredients add a refreshing taste: phosphoric acid in colas; citric acid and sodium citrate in Mountain Dew, Slice and Diet Pepsi. They also put a freshness date on every can and bottle. Soft drinks may lose some flavor over time so their freshness date tells consumers when the product is freshest and best tasting. Every can and bottle of Pepsi-Cola products has a Nutrition Facts panel, which shows the number of calories and other nutrients per serving. There is essentially no fat in any Pepsi-Cola products. The main ingredients found in Pepsi-Cola products include carbonated water, carbohydrates, sugar, sodium, potassium and caffeine. For a complete breakdown by ingredients by product, Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Pepsi ONE, Mountain Dew, Slice, Mug Root Beer, Aquafina or FruitWorks is recommended.

Aspartame: Aspartame is a sugar substitute used in their diet beverages and many other food products. Aspartame is made of the same building blocks as protein, so it is considered a "nutritive sweetener," but the very small amounts used in diet drinks contribute no calories. Acesulfame-K: Acesulfame-K (or "Ace-K") is a non-nutritive, calorie-free sweetener. A blend of Acesulfame Potassium and Nutrasweet is used to provide taste and sweetness to Pepsi ONE. Sodium: All of their products are "low sodium" and contain less than 110 mg per eight-fluid- ounce serving. A number of beverages have less than 35 mg sodium per serving, so they are considered "very low sodium" products. Potassium: Potassium in Pepsi-Cola products may come from water or as part of certain ingredients. For example, potassium may be combined with benzoic acid, which helps prevent spoilage and flavor changes. Potassium is an electrolyte that helps meet the mineral needs of active people. Caffeine: Caffeine provides a characteristic flavor to soft drinks. Caffeine is naturally found in coffee, tea and chocolate. There is no caffeine in CaffeineFree Pepsi, Caffeine-Free Diet Pepsi, Fruitworks, Aquafina, Slice, MUG Root Beer/Cream Soda, Sierra Mist or Caffeine-Free Mountain Dew.

Industry attractiveness is moderate and same in case of business strengths. Company need to make investment to over come the weak point its has. Aquafina Industry is highly attractive but business is lacking some required strengths. So think that company must make investment to over come its weak points.

Other Corporate Strategies:


New product development:
From our analysis of whole case study and relevant information gathered we come to know that there is a room for new product in company product mix offered in Pakistan. Company may introduce some of its exiting products in Pakistan or come up with entirely new product that could compete with Local Brand like ROOH AFZA, NORUS, etc.

Strategic Alliance, Theres Strength In Numbers


Strategic alliances occur when two separate businesses join together to offer a broader set of skills or services to joint clients, to the mutual benefit of both companies. An alliance between companies that provide different, but complementary, services or products allows both companies to create an advantage over competitors by broadening the scope of their operations. Alliances can make your business more valuable to your client, expand your business, multiply your sales force, and give you a dependable supplier of the aligned service or product. There are no rules restricting alliances: Large businesses may join with small businesses and vice versa; small businesses may band together, or large businesses may collaborate with each other. But there are three basic characteristics that most successful alliances share: The alliance benefits both partners. Good agreements open new doors for the partners and allow room to evolve as future opportunities occur. Successful alliances create new value through collaboration. Partners must value the skills each party brings to the alliance. For an alliance to flourish, both parties must be involved in managing the partnership. An alliance without trust and respect is doomed to failure. Pepsi Co can have strategic alliance with other up stream and down stream organization, this will give them competitive edge over their competitors. While going for an strategic alliance Pepsi must concentrate on what they do best, and bring added value to their customers.

Marketing Strategy
SEGMENTING
They are committed to marketing their products to all groups, treating all customers with respect, sensitivity and fairness, while providing some of the greatest products on earth. Early in its history - as far back as the 1940s - Pepsi-Cola recognized the importance of diversity. Pepsi pioneered targeted marketing and national lifestyle advertising featuring minorities. they developed education and sports programs spotlighting minorities. they partnered with many groups to create programs that contribute to minority communities. they sponsored major music tours by entertainers such as Michael Jackson and Tina Turner. they support minority media and interests. Over the years, their success has been recognized with numerous awards. Most importantly, their products are purchased and enjoyed by all groups of consumers.

PACKAGING
Providing their consumers with easy-to-use, convenient and innovative containers is one of their top priorities. Package introductions they have made over the years include the industry's first two-liter bottle; the first company to respond to consumer preference with lightweight, recyclable, plastic bottles; The Cube, an easy-to-store 24-pack; Big Slam, the wide-mouth one-liter bottle; as well as our three-liter bottle, designed to provide consumers with extra value (not all products and packaging is available in all markets). Their local bottlers, many of which are privately owned, franchise operations, make all packaging decisions. Most of their bottlers are following the industry-wide trend to use plastic packaging due to environmental considerations. The industry is now making greater use of fully recyclable aluminum cans and PET plastic bottles. The "CUBE" is Pepsi's new innovative 24-can multipack. It was dubbed the "CUBE" by consumer focus groups, which are a small test market population that's invited by Pepsi-Cola to give the company feedback before the introduction of a new package or product. The consumer focus groups Pepsi used for this product coined the name the "CUBE" and it stuck! Polyethylene terephthalate, or "PET plastic," is a form of polyester used to make strong, lightweight, shatter-resistant bottles for soft drinks, water, juice and other non-food products. Bottles made from PET plastic, which are marked with the number one code on the or near the bottle of the bottle, are recyclable into products including new containers, fiberfill for sleeping bags and coats, fabric, carpet, auto parts, film and more

PRICING
Providing quality products at the lowest possible price has always been one of Pepsi's main concerns. One of the ways they have been able to assist this effort is by expanding their use of inexpensive and recyclable plastic bottles. The soft drink industry today is confronted with a bewildering array of price increases. Their expenditures for labor, ingredients, transportation and more all continue to rise. The cost of aluminum alone has increased dramatically since last year. Across their entire system however, they have been cutting overhead and re-engineering their manufacturing process in order to keep their prices competitive. It is their policy to limit any price increases to the retail trade to the lowest possible extent.

Distribution Service
They should go to market through a distribution network offering extraordinary strength and flexibility. Their goal should be to put their products within easy reach of the consumer. Their distribution systems must be design to help then to achieve their goal. Because practices and customs vary by market and because retail customers have different needs, Therefore they Should have several successful models for service that they use around the world. Direct Store Delivery Vast and powerful direct store delivery (DSD) systems are at the heart of that network. Through these systems they take snacks and drinks directly to tens of thousands of distribution outlets, from the tiniest convenience store to the largest warehouse outlet. They and their bottlers actually take products into the store and set them on the shelves. That helps to ensure that their products are fresh and that fragile items like potato chips are handled with care. It also allows them to merchandise their brands for maximum visibility and appeal. Their systems can move new products into distribution very quickly, sometimes as fast as a week. And because they call on retail customers so frequently, they know very quickly how a new product is selling. At the same time, DSD provides big financial benefits to retailers. Since they handle the products and do the merchandising, retailers save on labor. And because their products typically are sold and restocked every few days, while retailers pay for them on 30-day cycles, they add a lot to a store's cash flow.

Promotion
Promotion is the specific mix of advertising, personal selling, sales promotion, and public relations a company uses to pursue its advertising and marketing objectives. Objectives The objectives that are met by promoting are to move the target market through the following phases: Unawareness -> Awareness -> Beliefs/Knowledge -> Attitude -> Purchase Intention -> Purchase It is believed that consumers cannot skip over a phase, but they need to move through them. Promotion is used to move the target market from one phase to another to finally purchase. The Offer The offer needs to be identified before you begin any promoting. What are you offering the target customer? What do you want the target market to do?

PEPSI ADVERTISING
For over 100 years, Pepsi-Cola has produced some of the finest soft drinks ads available anywhere in the world. From today's "Joy of Cola" campaign starring "Pepsi Girl" Hallie Eisenberg to yesterday's "Nickel, Nickel" (1939), their ads are as memorable as the products they produce. Both electronic and print media is used for promotional purpose.

Pepsis brand management


The bond arising from the customer's entire experience with the brand leads to a relationship that can last forever. As the alignment grows stronger, so does the brand. People love it. And they buy it. Thus, born in corporate boardroom, pepsi has become a social artifact, having stolen its way into the popular lexicon and created history. This forever brand has continued to survive in spite of the changes taking place all around it. And the passage of time has failed to tarnish its glory. Who cares what it is made of? What matters is only that its tangy flavor has quenched the thirst of millions, its swoosh of effervescence has soothed parched souls since the 1890s and its scarlet hue has painted the world in to its three colours. on one hand we have a marketing meltdown that is flagellating at least 50 per cent of all brands, on the other we have Pepsi that has continued to achieve meteoric growth despite all odds. This begs one question: what makes this forever brand different? The search for the right answer is what has driven an extensive research effort over the past few years to extract the essence of the success and to study the core ideas that have clicked so well with the consumers. In the campaigns of this forever brand-five ways have been 87

Strategic Marketing

Pepsi Cola

identified to the consumers' heart: self-statement, emotion, perception, virtual benefit, pride and values.

Self-statement
Consumers prefer pepsi because it expresses their (desired) character and identity. This is all about the brand's power to tell a sharp, crisp and precise story about them. pepsi helps its consumers define their identity and express it. Within a split second, Pepsi can draw a complete picture of the consumer character, personality and identity. This forever brand is found to express precisely that personality or character trait aspired to by the consumer. To make the brand the 'megaphone' for what the consumer wants to express, Pepsi is powered by a provocative ideology that the consumers want to proclaim.

Emotion
Consumers prefer Pepsi because they love the brand. To generate feelings so powerful that consumers have to buy the brand out of love, Pepsi is positioned as an ally to the consumers on an important emotional stance, which their marketers identify as the key behind it. The bond arising from the customer's experience with Pepsi leads to a relationship that can last forever. As the alignment grows stronger, so does the brand. People love it. And they buy it.

Perception
The way people perceive Pepsi is the result of programmes deeply ingrained in their minds. Consumers prefer the brand because perception and behavior programmes point to it as the only logical choice.

Virtual benefit
Consumers prefer this brand because it offers a compelling (virtual) benefit. To shape a virtual edge over competitors, with the unique flavor, Pepsi, refreshes one to feel as cool as ice.

Pride and values


Consumers prefer Pepsi because it creates an inner satisfaction that they are still young.

The bond arising from the customer's entire experience with the brand leads to a relationship that can last forever. As the alignment grows stronger, so does the brand. People love it. And they buy it. Thus, born in corporate boardroom, Pepsi has become a social artifact, having stolen its way into the popular lexicon and created history. This forever brand HAS continued to survive in spite of the changes taking place all around it. And the passage of time has failed to tarnish its glory. Who cares what pepsi is made of? What matters is only that its tangy flavor has quenched the thirst of millions, its swoosh of effervescence has soothed parched souls since the 1890s and its scarlet hue has painted the world in to three colours. Pepsi should strived hard to 'own' the category by making their brand's personality thoroughly distinct and then tried to broaden the way consumers think about the category and the brand. Here Focused should be on six primary personality traits viz. youthful, fun, adventurous, exclusive, outdoorsy and romantic. Pepsi must enhance their credibility and inspire trust in consumers. But broadly, they seem to distinguish themselves most in the areas of trustworthiness, leadership and intelligence, Company must communicate confidence so that customer feel that this soft drink is safe and they can always enjoy it. The world around Pepsi is changing beyond recognition. And so is the temperament of the custodians of civilization. In order to keep pace with the times, this legendary brand went ahead to make small compromises with the fascinating changes around it while its core identity remained as unaltered as a genetic code. Pepsi must try to enhance its credibility, command trust, capture mind shares, earn loyalty and generate shareholder value.
