II INDUSTRY STRUCTURE:

MY JUSTIFICATION

Trang 9

The Coca-Cola Companyy

Bargaining power of customers

Weak to medium

- Direct End-user or individual customers - Zero bargaining power, they buy the product at a fixed price which usually remains constant.

- Fast Food chain owners - They have Low to medium bargaining power as Coca Cola is one of the most demanded beverages.

- Vending Machines at malls and movie theaters- Low to medium bargaining power.

Threat of substitutions Strong Coca Cola not only has to compete with other soft drinks but other beverages that one can drink instead of Coca Cola Some of the biggest competitors of Coca Cola are Tea, Coffee, & lemonade As people are becoming more health-conscious, the threat of substitutes like freshly made Smoothies or Fresh pressed juices has increased multiple folds.

Bargaining power of suppliers

Weak Being the mammoth it is, it is much easier for Coca Cola to shift to a new supplier, but it is much more difficult for the supplier to shift to a new customer that buys in the same magnitude as Coca Cola.

Threat of new entraints

Weak the beverage industry is highly saturated, and any new entrant cannot benefit from economies of scale, which the current players like Coca Cola enjoy extensively Moreover, there is a significant knowledge barrier in terms of them being able to develop a formula for a soft drink that can compete with Coca Cola, and even the technological barrier can be assessed as substantial Rivairy Strong the first name that comes to mind is Pepsi and these 2

companies have been in competition since the late 19th century Their key products are very similar in both taste and looks, but there are some key differences as well One

of the critical advantages of Pepsi over Coca Cola is that they also own several salty snacks brands such as Doritos and Lays, Coca Cola on the other hand, has stuck to beverages If tomorrow there is a sudden drop in soft drink demand, it will affect Coca Cola more significantly as compared to Pepsi.

III COMPANY STRATEGY:

Coca-Cola embeds its competitive strategy in three key areas: differentiation, cost leadership, and focus The company accomplishes differentiation by maintaining a strong brand image, innovative product development, and effective marketing campaigns This strategy helps Coca-Cola to stand out from its competitors and achieve higher market share.

1.1 Definition of differentiation strategy:

Differentiation strategy is a business approach that focuses on creating unique and distinct products, services, or brand attributes that set a company apart from its competitors The concept of differentiation strategy revolves around offering something perceived as valuable and different to customers, which becomes a competitive advantage.

1.2 Examples of how Coca-Cola differentiates itself from competitors:

\

Trang 11

The Coca-Cola Companyy

Product differentiation: Coca-Cola offers a wide range of beverages beyond just cola It has diversified its product portfolio to include options like Diet Coke, Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, Sprite, Fanta, Dasani water, Minute Maid juices, and more This diverse selection allows Coca-Cola to cater to different consumer preferences and expand its customer base.

Service differentiation: Coca-Cola maintains its customer service practices via online chat with a virtual agent on the official website of the company's dedicated customer service phone.

Personnel differentiation: The company pays employees good salaries and also complements the payments with rewards They also give them more than 700,000 associates within the Coca-Cola system the tools, training, and resources needed to ensure their safety.

Marketing differentiation: Coca-Cola's marketing is known for their creativity and emotional appeal They evoke happiness, unity, and a sense of togetherness Coca-Cola's advertisements often use storytelling techniques and focus on building strong emotional connections with consumers, setting it apart from competitors

Promotion differentiation: First is Coca-Cola AD Coca Cola employs celebrity endorsements and uses the super attraction of stars, which is beyond the reach of ordinary advertisements in the complex media environment Because stars unconsciously have attracted the attention of target consumers to the information demanded by advertisements They can affect consumers' emotions, attitudes, and buying behavior and increase target consumers' favorable impression of the brand exponentially In its series of advertisements, Coca-Cola uses stars with distinct personalities to explain its unique personality The image of stars perfectly integrates with the brand and brings out the best in each other so that the advertising effectively improves the brand value Coca-Cola is good at using mass media and spares no effort to build its own network transmission system Coca-Cola Chinese website, for example, Coca- Cola can speak Chinese elements in various festivals in China and integrate them into the Coca-Cola Chinese website Through the mass media and network interaction, Coca-Cola maintains the continuity and consistency of online and offline advertising to highlight the effectiveness of the media integration.

The Coca-Cola Companyy

The second is the sponsorship by Coca-Cola Sponsorship is a form of public relations Coca-Cola sponsors sports, education, culture, and other activities to strengthen its brand image, enhance its brand reputation and create a drinking atmosphere to promote the sales of its products Sponsor world and Chinese football Globally, football has been one of Coca-Cola's most important sponsorship and its most valuable market asset As a long-time partner of FIFA and the World Cup, Coca-Cola has been one of the major sponsors of every World Cup since 1974 and has an undisputed global leader in advancing the sport of football The spirit that runs through football is exactly the core value that the Cola brand has always advocated In China, Coca-Cola's support for The cause of Chinese football has enabled it to properly localize its brand's global connection with football, thus establishing a powerful emotional communication model with Chinese fans.

Finally is the Coca-Cola promotion Coca-Cola has a special sale A method of lowering prices periodically during a specified period to promote sales Special sales, generally in festivals and soft drink sales season, or fierce competition to use more During the Spring Festival in 2002, Coca-Cola in C city carried out the promotion activity of "special sale of limited time and limited quantity" in the supermarket channel From the peak time when the supermarket has the largest customer flow, the daily activity time is limited to 2 hours Special sales are carried out for its PET1.5 L and 2.25 Coca-Cola series products (Coca-Cola, Sprite, Fanta, striking), producing a good promotion effect Coca-Cola also has incremental packaging The price of the product remains the same, but the packing capacity has increased For example, coke's previous products with 1.25-liter and 2-liter PET packaging capacities were later increased to 1.5 liters and 2.25 liters, respectively However, the price was still sold according to the standard before the increase of capacity In other words, incremental packaging is a "volume without price" method of promotion.

Cost leadership is a term used when a company projects itself as the cheapest manufacturer or provider of a particular product or commodity in a competition It is difficult to deploy the strategy because the management must constantly work on reducing cost at every level to remain competitive.

2.2 Analysis of Coca-Cola's efforts to achieve cost leadership:

Through cost leadership strategy, the company tries to position its product cheaper than its competitor and for this the company tries to minimize the cost of production (Eldring, 2009).Another winning factor of Coca-Cola is that it doesn't change its price as soon as it gains popularity It static price factor, for several years, has helped the company be a cost leadership.

Supply Chain Efficiency: Coca-Cola has made efforts to optimize its supply chain and improve operational efficiency By streamlining production processes, enhancing logistics, and implementing lean principles, the company aims to minimize costs associated with manufacturing and distribution These efforts help drive efficiency, reduce waste, and improve overall cost-effectiveness.

Economies of Scale: Coca-Cola's large-scale operations and global presence provide the company with economies of scale By producing and distributing beverages on a massive scale, Coca-Cola can benefit from lower production costs and negotiate better deals with suppliers These economies of scale can contribute to cost savings and increase profitability.

The Coca-Cola Companyy

Outsourcing and Partnerships: Coca-Cola engages in strategic partnerships and outsourcing to optimize costs By collaborating with bottling partners, the company can focus on core activities while tapping into the expertise and efficiency of its partners Outsourcing non-core functions allows Coca-Cola to reduce overhead costs and improve overall cost efficiency.

Continuous Improvement: Coca-Cola emphasizes a culture of continuous improvement throughout its organization By encouraging employees to identify and implement cost-saving measures, the company fosters a cost-conscious mindset This focus on continuous improvement can lead to ongoing cost optimization and operational efficiencies.

2.3 Assessing the success of Coca-Cola's cost leadership strategy:

In summary, Coca-Cola's primary strategy revolves around brand differentiation rather than cost leadership While the company implements various cost optimization measures, its success in cost leadership is not its primary objective Factors to assess its cost optimization efforts include profitability, operating efficiency, supply chain management, comparative analysis with competitors, and long-term growth However, it's important to note that Coca-Cola's focus on brand differentiation may result in higher overall costs compared to competitors pursuing cost leadership strategies.

3.1 Explanation of focus strategy:

A focus strategy is usually employed where the comopany knows its segment and has products to competitively satisfy its needs Focus strategy is one of three generic marketing strategies See differentiation strategy and low cost strategy for the other two.
