With the development of world and human being, the taste, need and the attitude of
human being is also changes. India is one of the common market in the world with
the population of more than one billion. Soft drink is a popular common product
which is generally purchased by consumers for quenching their thirst in summer and
also to have cooling refreshment. As far as the market of soft drinks is concerned, it
is facing cut throat competition from the larger number of soft drinks available in the
market. Different brands are available in every segment of flavours, but the attitudes
of the consumers differ from each other due to several factors.

Coca- cola at the same time entered the Indian mark t .and dominated the whole
market. It faced no though competition from the domestic market. Due to certain
circumstances the Coca cola Company discontinued its operations in India. In 1993
Coca Cola was launched in Agra (India) again with a slogan of "OLD WAVE HAVE
COME AGAIN" Joining the hand with Parle export Pvt. Ltd., The Company was
trying its best to regain prestige which it had before. At present only Coca Cola and
Pepsi Food are giving tough competition to each other.
Coca Cola was the first foreign drink came in India in the year 1965. Coca cola had a
very good beginning in the Indian market and it hardly faced any competition in India.
The soft drink market in India is quite wide. The production of soft drink in Bihar was
stated on 27th with March 1967 with installation of a Coca Cola bottling plant in
Jamshedpur under the auspicious guidance of late industrialist Mr. Dharma Chad
Kumari which was named as Steel city Beverages Pvt. Ltd. The company controlled
the lions share in the soft drink market for nearly 10 years. Parle also entered this
field in Bihar with the installation of bottling unit in collaboration with Mr. Rajendra
Poddar in the name of Orient Beverage Pvt. Ltd. In 1997 with the advent of Janta
Party Government, it created trouble for Coca Cola which led to withdraw its
operation from India.
After the withdraw of Coca Cola from India the Parle monopolized the soft drink
market in Bihar and took a lions share of the beverages product from the industry
even after Mc. Dowell pure drinks and local drinks entered into the market. They
would not compete with Parle.
Once again with the liberalization of economy in 1991. Pepsi Food Ltd. Entered in
the India market. It shared its bottling of products in Bihar by Steel city Beverages
Company on 24th March 1991 owned by Kamani's collaboration with Birla Group

Coca-Cola Company is one of the leading MNC in the world. It has made a
remarkable growth since it origin and it has got a good potential in spite of various
hurdles coming its way. By going through its SWOT analysis we can know much
more about the company.
Strengths:
The company has got various strengths, which leads the company be a market
leader. Some of the strengths listed below:
1. Beverage experience.
6. Coca-Cola has been a complex part of world culture for a very long time.
Weaknesses:
Weaknesses for any business need to be both minimized and monitored in order to
effectively achieve productivity and efficiency in their business’s activities, Coke is no
exception.
Local Weaknesses:
a) Finance problem.
f) Poor service.
g) High prices.
Coca-Cola on the other side has effects on the teeth which is an issue for health
care. It also has got sugar by which continuous drinking of Coca-Cola may cause
health problems. Being addicted to Coca-Cola also is a health problem, because
drinking of Coca-Cola daily has an effect on body after few years.
Opportunities:
1. Brand recognition is the significant factor affecting Coke’s competitive
position. Coca-Cola’s brand name is known well throughout 94% of the world
today.
3. Opening new outlets in the area where the coca cola’s market share is less.
Local Opportunities:
Threats:
Currently, the threat of new viable competitors in the carbonated soft drink industry is
not very substantial.
1. The threat of substitutes, however, is a very real threat. The soft drink industry
is very strong, but consumers are not necessarily married to it. Possible
2. Even though Coca-Cola and Pepsi control nearly 40% of the entire beverage
market, the changing health-consciousness of the market could have a
serious affect.
3. Consumer buying power also represents a key threat in the industry. The
rivalry between Pepsi and Coke has produce a very slow moving industry in
which management must continuously respond to the changing attitudes and
demands of their consumers or losing market share to the competition.
4. Furthermore, consumers can easily switch to other beverages with little cost
or consequence.

The Pareto principle suggests that most effects come from relatively few causes. In
quantitative terms: 80% of the problems come from 20% of the causes (machines,
raw materials, operators etc.); 80% of the wealth is owned by 20% of the people etc.
Therefore effort aimed at the right 20% can solve 80% of the problems. Double (back
to back) Pareto charts can be used to compare 'before and after' situations. General
use, to decide where to apply initial effort for maximum effect.
Scatter Plots
A scatter plot is effectively a line graph with no line - i.e. the point intersections
between the two data sets are plotted but no attempt is made to physically draw a
line. The Y axis is conventionally used for the characteristic whose behaviour we
would like to predict. Use, to define the area of relationship between two variables.
Warning: There may appear to be a relationship on the plot when in reality there is
none, or both variables actually relate independently to a third variable.
Control Charts
Flow Charts
Pictures, symbols or text coupled with lines, arrows on lines show direction of flow.
Enables modelling of processes; problems/opportunities and decision points etc.
Check Lists
A Checklist contains items that are important or relevant to a specific issue or
situation. Checklists are used under operational conditions to ensure that all
important steps or actions have been taken. Their primary purpose is for guiding
operations, not for collecting data. Generally used to check that all aspects of a
situation have been taken into account before action or decision making. Simple,
effective.

Manufacturing Process
1. Water Treatment:
HCCBPL Patna follow a batch treatment which includes coagulation & flocculation.
The method ensures disinfection and settling of all macro impurities and there after it
pass to sand, carbon filters to remove off odour ,off colour, off taste, and thus it is
strictly bought in line with the WHO requirements. They are also using state of art –
micron filtration process where the water is filtered up to the extent of 1 micron
before it is fed to the process. This extensive treatment of water under strict
monitoring and sampling for quality leads to pure hygienic water with the highest
quality meeting the Coca-Cola standards.
2.Syrup Preparation:
Coca-Cola uses highest quality of sugar which is controlled and ensured by its
stringent pre-laid standards, which serves as the strict criteria before acceptance of a
lot. To ensure high quality of syrup, it is subjected to hot treatment wherein it is given
a contact time with hyflo and carbon at elevated temperature. It is then passed
through a filter press which removes the carbon particles and other impurities before
it declared fit for concentrate mixing. All this process takes place under the strict vigil
by the quality department which maintains the appropriate records of the numerous
tests carried out in the entire process which makes it a foolproof process.
In the ready syrup tank the pre-decided quantity of concentrate is mixed to the
simple syrup in very strict hygienic condition to yield final syrup. The entire syrup
manufacturing area is maintained under a constant positive pressure which rules out
the possibility of any external particles entering into the process room.
3. Container Washing:
Container has been identified as one of the major critical control point in the entire
manufacturing process & that’s the reason that company has laid some of the very
The bottles received from the market are loaded on the conveyor by the uncasing
machine and the arrays of the unwashed bottles passes through the four pre-wash
inspections stations which ensures removal of rusty neck bottles, excessively dirty
bottles, bottles carrying foreign matter, foreign bottles. And thus the good bottles
pass into the bottle washing machine which uses intensive mechanical and chemical
processes to clean and disinfect the bottles thoroughly and ensures the bottles to be
ready for filling. However as an additional safety, there is again a post wash
inspection station comprising of 4 sub-stations, which ensures removal of the chip
necked bottles and suspected bottles from the lot. Thus the bottles are subjected to
series of stringent inspections before it is fed to the filler for filling.
4. Mixing, Proportioning:
The chilled carbonated beverage fed by the MOJONNIER is filled into the bottles
through a rotator machine named FILLER. The bottles are immediately crowned by
crowner (adjacent to the filler) and thereafter bottles passes through the date coding
machine which enable the consumer to be 100 percent sure of consuming a
perfectly safe and fresh product.
6. Final Inspection:
After date coding, there is once again a final inspection station where light inspectors
all low or high filled bottles and permit only the saleable product to pass through for
casing to the caser machine.
Production lines maintain the waste water from the bottle washers, Syrup and Filler
rooms. Entire waste water generated is treated at Waste Water Treatment Plant and
discharged through a 800 meters long pipeline specially laid to discharge the treated
waste water away from inhabited areas. Part of this water is being used for
gardening purpose within the plant premises.
Once the finished product is ready, it is transported to the distribution centers and
then to retail outlets by way of route trucks. The consumer buys the soft drink from
the retailer outlets. The empty bottles are simultaneously collected by the distribution
channels at the time of dispensing the finished products.
Other than water and concentrate, bottling operation require sugar, CO2, bottles,
crates and other miscellaneous materials. The Coca-Cola India division has a
Supplier authorization program where suppliers are authorized based on a defined
criterion. Environmental considerations are amongst the critical of these criterions.
Vendor Management
Vendors are selected from head office, the local authorities has to pass the audit
check after that a vendor is become permanent supplier.
SWOT Analysis:
Strength
• Strong Brands: The products produced and marketed by the Company have
a strong brand image. People all around the world recognize the brands
marketed by the Company. Strong brand names like Sprite, Fanta, Limca,
Thums Up and Maaza add up to the brand name of the Coca-Cola Company
as a whole.
• Low Cost Of Operation: The production system is very efficient due to
forward planning and maintenance of consistency of operation which minimise
cost of operation.
Weaknesses:
• Although domestic businesses as well as many international markets are
thriving, Coca-Cola has recently reported some “declines in unit case
volumes in Indonesia and Thailand due to reduced consumer purchasing
power.”
Opportunities:
Threats:
• Even though Coca-Cola and Pepsi control nearly 40% of the entire beverage
market, the changing health-consciousness of the market could have a
serious affect.
Marketing is the basic reason for the existence of a business organisation. In the age
of fast changes, marketing is the springboard of all activities. Basically Marketing
Department is necessary for every organisation. In multinational companies like coca
cola have their own separate department of marketing.

Promotion Department
In today’s competitive environment, having the right product at the right place in the
right place at the right time may still not be enough to be successful. Promotion is
designed to inform the marketplace about who you are, how good your product is,
and where they can buy it. Promotion is also used to persuade the customers to try a
new product, or buy more of an old product.
Coca-cola is tying up with different chains of restaurants and fast food centers to
promote the Coca-cola and its other brands like Limca, Sprite, Maaza etc. these
restaurants are authorized to keep and use the merchandising assets of Pepsi.

MARKETING STRATEGIES:
Hindustan Beverages India comes out with the schemes on their different products
many times in a year. Most of these schemes are made to benefit the retailers.
Some of the schemes are as follows:
• 1 bottle of 2lt. free with one 2lt bottle pack.
• 1 bottle of 1lt. free with one 1lt bottle pack.
• 2 bottles of 500ml free with one 500ml bottle pack.
• 6 bottles of Kinley free with one pack of Kinley.
3) Advertising:
Coca-Cola also try to promote their brands by providing their retailers and dealers
some display items. Some of such items are as follows:
1. Fridges
2. Coca-Cola/Mazza stands
3. Display bottles
4. Posters
Retailers usually use the merchandising asset of one company in such a way that it
benefits another company. Sometime they do it unknowingly, sometimes they do it
knowingly and sometimes because of the deficiencies of the company itself. These
deficiencies are as follows: -
Unlike the rival brand Pepsi, Coca-Cola co.. Basically depends upon its sales man
for promoting and launching the new as well as old brands because instead of doing
the business through dealer’s network like Pepsi, Coca-cola believes in making and
SWOT Analysis:
Strengths
• Coca-Cola has been a complex part of world culture for a very long time.
• The Company has a strong and reliable distribution network. The network is
formed on the basis of the time of consumption and the amount of sales
Weaknesses
• The brands produced by the company are brands produced world wide
thereby making the export levels very low. In India, there exists a major
controversy concerning pesticides and other harmful chemicals in bottled
products including Coca-Cola. In 2003, the Centre for Science and
Environment (CSE), a non-governmental organization in New Delhi, said
aerated waters produced by soft drinks manufacturers in India, including
multinational giants PepsiCo and Coca-Cola, contained toxins including
lindane, DDT, malathion and chlorpyrifos- pesticides that can contribute to
cancer and a breakdown of the immune system.
• The Company’s operations are carried out on a small scale and due to
Government restrictions and ‘red-tapism’, the Company finds it very difficult to
invest in technological advancements and achieve economies of scale.
• The domestic market for the products of the Company is very high as
compared to any other soft drink manufacturer. Coca-Cola India claims a 58
per cent share of the soft drinks market; this includes a 42 per cent share of
the cola market. Other products account for 16 per cent market share, chiefly
led by Limca. The company appointed 50,000 new outlets in the first two
months of this year, as part of its plans to cover one lakh outlets for the
coming summer season and this also covered 3,500 new villages.
• The Company can come up with new products which are not manufactured
abroad, like Maaza etc and export them to foreign nations. It can come up
with strategies to eliminate apprehension from the minds of the people
towards the Coke products produced in India so that there will be a
considerable amount of exports and it is yet another opportunity to broaden
future prospects and cater to the global markets rather than just domestic
market.
Threats
• The nonalcoholic beverages segment of the commercial beverages industry is
highly competitive. We compete with major international beverage companies
that, like our Company, operate in multiple geographic areas, as well as
numerous firms that are primarily local in operation. In many countries in
which we do business, including the United States, PepsiCo, Inc., is a primary
competitor.
• Consumer buying power also represents a key threat in the industry. The
rivalry between Pepsi and Coke has produce a very slow moving industry in
which management must continuously respond to the changing attitudes and
demands of their consumers or losing market share to the competition.
Basically the HRM practices are necessary for every organization. In multinational
companies like coca cola have their own separate department of HRM.
• Internal recruitment
External recruitment
The selection process will vary depending on the position you’re applying for, as one
process can’t fit all the different roles we have here at CCE. However, in most cases
a combination of any of the following tools will be used:
• Interview
• Group exercises
• Presentations
• Psychometric tests
• Interview
The interview is designed to reveal more about you and your experiences. We’ll ask
for examples of how you behaved in different situations, maybe at school, university,
a club, at home or in previous jobs. This is not designed to 'catch you out' and our
interviewers will never try and trick you into an answer.
Group exercises
We’re very much a team at CCE so these will show us how effectively you work with
people. They’re a good opportunity for us to see how you communicate, influence
and involve other people in the workplace.
Presentations give you the chance to show your ability to communicate to a group of
people on a specific topic. You may be given a topic in advance or on the day, but
don’t worry – you’ll have plenty of time to prepare.
Psychometric tests
Psychometric tests are timed exercises that examine candidate abilities and
potential. On occasions, we may also use a personality assessment tool that is
designed to find out more specific things about candidate.
Designed to assess how you react in certain situations, these help to highlight
particular skills and how well you’re suited for a position. You may be given facts and
figures to review, or a report to complete; we may also have an assessor acting as a
customer or employee to simulate a situation that could occur in the workplace.
Training process is essential part of every employee with out training; employee can
not come to now the procedure of work, rules and regulations of firm, some times
when new technology is introduced it is also responsibility of a firm to train its
employees.
After recruiting the fresh employee we train them for three months and also pay them
salaries after three months they become part of a firm.
Promotion Policy:
Employee has to complete at least a minimum of 1 year prior to being eligible for any
kind of Promotion.
The criteria of evaluation are as follows:
Transfer Policy:
While transfering employee HR Manager must have set objectives.
- Appointment letter must have clause for transfer.

CHAPTER- 5
ORGANISATION SWOT ANALYSIS
Strentghs:
• The production, marketing and distribution systems are very efficient due to
forward planning and maintenance of consistency of operations which
minimizes wastage of both time and resources leads to lowering of costs.
• The products produced and marketed by the Company have a strong
brand image. People all around the world recognize the brands marketed
by the Company. Strong brand names like Sprite, Fanta, Limca, Thums Up
and Maaza add up to the brand name of the Coca-Cola Company as a
whole. The red and white Coca-Cola is one of the very few things that are
recognized by people all over the world.
• Advertising plays a major in promoting sales of the product. The company has
got one of the best advertising strategies. Appointing film actors, as the brand
ambassadors, makes a great impact on the mind of the customers. The
company should try to launch more and more advertising and sales
campaigns to promote sales to the maximum.
Weaknesses:
• The company has got a pricing strategy as there is no certainty of rising or fall
of price during the peak season. This also hamper the sales of the company
• The brands produced by the company are brands produced world wide
thereby making the export levels very low. In India, there exists a major
controversy concerning pesticides and other harmful chemicals in bottled
products including Coca-Cola. Therefore, people abroad, are apprehensive
about Coca-Cola products from India.
Opportunities:
• Development of India as a whole has lead to an increase in the per capita
income thereby causing an increase in disposable income. Unlike olden
times, people now goods of their choice without having to worry much about
the flow of their income. The beverage industry can take advantage of such a
situation and enhance their sales. have the power of buying.
• Coca- Cola Company has got more than 300 brands which is running
successfully over the world. Thus it can launch some more brands in the
country, after studying the demand and desire of the people and can deep its
roots by winning their minds and hearts.
• As India is said to be one of the biggest market in the world, thus the
company survive for long and can expands to its length and width. Still there
are thousand of villages which have not been covered by soft drink
companies. If the company targets the rural market it can easily make large
profits and thus can also satisfy its aim to benefit and refresh the whole
nation.
Threats:
• The rural market may be alluring but it is not without its problems: Low per
capita disposable incomes that is half the urban disposable income; large
number of daily wage earners, acute dependence on the vagaries of the
monsoon; seasonal consumption linked to harvests and festivals and special
occasions; poor roads; power problems; and inaccessibility to conventional
advertising media. All these problems might lead to a slowdown in the
demand for the company’s products.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND SUGGESTIONS
It could be seen that “economical variables” highly affects the Coke’s resolution.
Economic factors are those actors who effect the production of any industry. So,
Coke is not the out of question. If the economic conditions of the country is not that
strong and Coke increases its Price in this situation. Then it would impact highly
negative. And inflation is also not a good position for any country’s production point
of view. It also impacts highly negative in the Coke’s production.
The Coca-Cola Company has always believed that education is a powerful force in
improving the quality of life and creating opportunity for people and their families
around the world.
Of course business innovation leaves highly good impacts in the business of Coke.
As coke use more advance technology in its production process. It will result in
increment of their production throughout the country.
Coca-Cola has always had a close consumer and supplier relationship with its
customers. Its entertaining and colorful advertisements have always and will always
rock the media. Indian rock stars, sportmen, and actors have played a very vital role
in making Coca-Cola such a popular beverage.
Coca-Cola is the leading soft drink brand in Patna region & most selling brand in the
region is Thumps Up, Sprite and Maaza.
According to most of the outlet owners the product which is seen is sold i.e. "Jo
Dikhta Hai Woh Bikta Hai"
Few activation elements like Table Top, Glow Shine Board, Hanger; Road Stand
plays a major role in increasing sell of the soft drink.
Conclusion
In this particular city Coca cola is doing well as compared to Pepsi. But there are
few mixed outlets too. So to increase the market share of Coca cola it should tap all
the mixed outlets. About 80% of market is owned by it, yet more is expected to be
achieved. Coca cola is trying to increase its expansion by:
Company should take advantage of its positive aspect like rain harvesting and many
social activities. Coke is investing a huge amount on advertising, it should reduce the
advertising cost and that amount should be used in various promotional offers then
the sell will increase like any thing. If sale increase obviously the market share will
also increase.
There are few threats that the company should not neglect, they are like-
So, considering these problems if Coca Cola Company looks after these problems
and tries to rectify it then definitely coca cola would be the number one company in
the world according to revenue generation where now it holds the fourth position.
Suggestions
I can sum the recommendations in brief as follows :
• Aggressive Marketing .
• Sales promotion and advertising to be made more frequent for brand building
• Company should make plans for better performance to the sales man.

Learning Experience
I didn’t have any idea about the great company like Coca – Cola. What I had learnt in
my entire 1st year course I realized this practically during my internship programme. I
got a chance to deal with corporate citizens. In the beginning when I joined here I
was only concerned about the data collection which was interesting. Then I was
assigned a project known as Organisation study of HCCBPL. I did the project very
carefully which gave a successful outcome.
The co-operation by management & employees is really helpful. The project aims at
mainly to increase the market share in low market share areas and to tap the
potential market where our presence is unfelt. So that it will create some awareness
This Internship gave me an insight of what the Theory reads and what exactly
happens on the floor, I learnt the actual difference between the theories that I study
in its practical applicability in the organization. I learnt how the business operates
and exposed to a wide range of company aspects.
I also came to know about the importance of the training and development and how
it would help the employee
Now I know fully about manufacturing sector. I wish after completion of my study I
may join any organization like Coca-Cola.
