ORIGIN OF PEPSI
In North Carolina, Mr. Caleb Braham who was a pharmacist by
profession invented a new beverage in year 1889, which was called
“Brads Drinks”. This brads drinks was later called ‘PEPSI COLA’.
Pepsi cola trademark was registered in 1903. Braham believed
marketing would be the key to Pepsi cola. He spent $1900 on advertising
when he sold only 40,000 liters of syrup.
In 1905, Braham build Pepsi’s first bottling plant. Three more
plants followed soon and in 1907. He sold 50,000 liters per year. In
1909, he hired a new advertising agency.
Troubles started at the end of the world war 1st when Braham
overstocked sugar at high price which subsequently dipped to rock
bottom in1920, by 1922, the company was insolvent. Braham returns to
his pharmacy.
ROY MERARGEL, a well street broker stopped in and
reorganized in the company.
However the company was running a loss each year and with the
stock market crash in 1929.
In 1930, Pepsi started its operation with its head office in New
Ireland City, New York.
In 1931, the company went bankrupt a second time.
The very basic strategy used by Pepsi was the price
competitiveness i.e. Rs.5. per year 1965 marked the success story for
Pepsi Co. when it merged with Frito-lag to constitute Pepsi co
international with coming together of DON KENDALL and Herman
Lye.

INDIAN STORY OF PEPSI
In 1977, a change in government at the center led to the exit of Coca-
cola, which proffered to quite rather to dilute its equity to 40% in
compliance with the foreign Exchange regulation Act (FERA).
The banging 1980’s saw the birth of another cola drink “Thumps
up”. The Gold Spot people launched it in 1978-79, as “Refreshing Cola” in
1978; Parle led the Indian soft-drinks market (share 33%) with the GOLD
SPOT and LIMCA brands, in 1978, and pure drinks share came down
to21% as a result of growing popularity of Limca and Thumps Up. At the
same time the threat to the Indian soft drinks market was that of fruit
drinks.
In 1988 fruit drinks market was valued at Rs.40 crores and grew at
the rate of 20%, in early 1985, the government rejected the proposal R.P.
Goenka Group. This involved the export the fruit juice concentrates from
Punjab in return for the import of cola-concentrates. The deal offered was
3:1 export-import ratio in return for being allowed to market Pepsi in India.
The Rs.22 crores Pepsi co project packaged was the second did by
the U.S. headquarters MNC to enter India. Pepsi co would have an equity
holding of 39%, Punjab Agro Industries Corporation (PAIC) 20% and
Voltas 24%. The balanced to be financed privately from loans, a project
approval board was finally set in February 1988. Pepsi’s share which has
been originally just under 40% was whittled to about 35% and PAIC’s
share was hiked to 40% these were mainly the issue in which Coke had left
India in1977. Thus Pepsi not only accepted the 1977 conditions but also
went much further. Now the Pepsi project had captured the farmer’s
imagination.
There was victory for Pepsi who after more then 5 years of
acrimonious battle was launched in June 1990 selectively in Rajasthan,
Punjab, Uttar-Pradesh and south as “LEHER-PEPSI” in 1991.Saw a major
launch of 7UP and MIRINDA in India, which was warmly received by
Indian customers and consumer.
1993 was a new beginning for fountain Pepsi (PMX).
In 1994, Pepsi achieved he no.1 position in Cola branch in India in
1996 Mirinda attained No-1 position in orange beverages category.
May 1998 saw a major launch of Mirinda lemon in India 70% of the
total sales came from established markets of NORTH AMERICA.
Pepsi has sin major branch namely Pepsi; Diet Pepsi; Mountain Dew;
7Up;Slice and Mirinda (Orange and Lemon).
Mr. Ramesh Vengal was the first managing director who was here till
1992 Mr. Suman Sinha the current president took over from him after a long
inning with HINDUSTAN LEVER LTD. During these years the beverages
business has grown rapidly from 3-million cases to 60 million cases and is
praised for countrywide leadership.
PEPSI selfs upwards of 160 million cases annually through 7,
50,000 retail outlets across the country. It generates annuals sales of
approximately Rs.2500 crores which includes exports of Rs.300 crore,
plus a growing snack foods business in Frito lay(Sales Rs.300 crores)
and a presence in the nascent juice market with TRPICANA (sales, Rs
50 Crore).
Franchise now sees the company not just as advisor as caring
weight of experience. Company system and franchise system can now be
properly aligned to meet required objective.
On expanding reach and availability 80% of all cold drinks are
consumed at the point of purchase (POP) rather than at home. The
fountain initiative has paid off higher of countrywide and they offer
consumers a whole new way experience soft drink also expending reach
and availability.
Coke tied up with Indian oil to setup dispensing units at petrol
pumps. Pepsi followed suit by striking a deal with Bharat petroleum.
Pepsi has mainly focused on brand Pepsi their strategy has been to
keep pace with the market growth rate in non colas but to emerge as the
definite cola they have put their might behind brand Pepsi as the flagship
brand.
In 1987 Pepsi ranked 29 in the fortune list of 500 largest industrial
corporations in the U.S. Coca cola. Was way down at 54, while Pepsi
Co. improved it’s position from 34 in 1986, Coca cola tumbled to 38
after massive public out cry, the company had to reintroduce the original
coke classic.
Pepsi has so far made in roads 151 countries including the much-
publicized ventures in the Soviet Union and china patience in PepsiCo’s
long suit. At the base of every beverage business lays the all important
secret formula of success “concentrate”. In India concentrate is prepared
by Pepsi food Ltd. Representative of Pepsi cola international.
They come, they spent, and they conquered the size of their
combined business as up to more than 5500crore. The equity investment
put in it tots to a humongous $1347million. Yet, almost 10 years after
Pepsi and coca cola Company entered India, both are yet to turn a profit.
There accumulated losses are estimated to be over Rs.800crore.
In a bid to corner a large market share invariably, either Pepsi or
coke ends up raising the stakes to a point where the math simply does
not adds up. Just that the two cola giants have been in a unseemly hurry
to grow the Indian market at same time, deny each other and advantage
irrespective to whether it makes economical sense.” in the mid 90’s
breakeven was pegged at 40 million faces.” Today’s both player together
do 150 million cases, but breakeven is still elusive.
The battle spilled into almost every area of operations. In early
1999, trade discounts were also unlashed. If the industry norm was
around 3-4 bottles free with every case, the cola majors begin to offer 6-
7 bottles. In 2000, particularly in the month coke went berserk, giving
50% discount.
Both cola warriors targeted clutch of key account about 6-7% of
total retail base primarily restaurant, movie house and hotels.
In many case the owner would play one against the other and drive a
hard bargain. In many cases the cola companies paid close to between rs.
100 per case of expected off take at advance to secure the monopoly
over the key account.
The gross margin on a case returnable glass bottle was just rs. 40 in
India, the single-serve PET bottles were simply not cost effective.
Aluminum cans to suffer to same problem.
Now every year both company had to invest fresh glass capacity
and creates. Back of the envelop calculations suggest that to put an
additional million bottles in the market required close to Rs. 40crore
investment in glass and crates, and glass bottles had to be replaced every
four years after they had done 40 cycles, during which time depreciation
had been charged.
Tilter Cola Company begins to concentrate to the urban centers. As
soon as they posed in to the winter land, the first signs of problems
surface. In a state Tamilnadu, the off take per thousand people barely
0.9. As results, when Pepsi or coke truck went into interior markets,
glass simply would not come back fast, either consumption was low or
the volumes were being split between the tow competitors.
As a market leader Pepsi could have played the role of expanding
the market. But that would have been completely out of character for the
company. “It is a bit like asking Brazilian soccer team to adopt germen
style total football”. Across global market Pepsi has always reveled in
grabbing share away from coke. But in India it fines itself in a peculiar
position. It is the Numerous Undo brand, out selling both coke and
thumps up put together. That’s helped Pepsi’s Indian team to build quite
a reputation
Pepsi has managed to constantly find ways to connect with youth.
So it coke is the universal drink which cuts across age groups, Pepsi is
the icon of the real cola quaffers. Young people between the ages of 15-
29.
BATTEL ON THE WATER - FRONT
Water opens up a new battle – front for the competing Cola giants.
But given current pricing Pepsi is trying to shield.
Aquafina from the discounting war. But that’s not helping garner
share. Here’s the real threat in most Asian markets, with the exception of
the Philippines, water is a far bigger business than carbonated soft
drinks. Besides, waters can very easily ride on the seasonal stew in the
carbonated soft drink business.
Both coke Kenley and Pepsi’s Aquafina have to contend with
Ramesh Chauhan’s Bisleri which is discounting heavily to build
volumes in the low margin business. Aquafina has described to shield
itself from the gutter fight by adopting a premium tack and not offering
discounts. The fight has all the marketing of cola was as coke and Pepsi
have shown, there are no fear winners in such a battle, only losers.
