- Coca-Cola and Nestlé combine One of the biggest marketing successes of the past decade has been the coffee shop chain. But the next move for coffee – and for its less hyped cousin, tea – could be to the fridge. Coca-Cola and Nestlé, two of the biggest names in the beverages and food sector, have spotted an opportunity in the so-called ready to drink (RTD) sector and have together devised a plan to dominate a fragmented global market by reinventing coffee and tea. One would have thought Coca-Cola already sold enough cold, flavoured, brown liquid. But this is different; the plan is to capture what could be a massive consumer trend by creating branded offers around the existing concepts of iced tea and coffee. The potential for growth is huge. According to Mintel’s January 2002 Adult Soft Drinks report: ‘The category value of the global RTD market grew at a compound annual rate of over 6% from 1997 to 2002 (second only to bottled water) and is forecast…arrow_forwardFrom the following, please identify the 2 statements that are true as well as the 2 statements that are false.

But the time has come for the rest of the world to update its thinking—because the future arrived even faster than expected. One of the most dramatic developments of the past 30 years has been emerging Asia’s soaring consumption and its integration into global flows of trade, capital, talent, and innovation. In the decades ahead, Asia’s economies will go from participating in these flows to determining their shape and direction. Indeed, in many areas—from the internet to trade and luxury goods—they already are. The question is no longer how quickly Asia will rise; it is how Asia will lead. In 2000, Asia accounted for just under one-third of global GDP (in terms of purchasing power parity), and it is on track to top 50 percent by 2040. By that point, it is expected to account for 40 percent of the world’s total consumption, representing a profound shift in the…arrow_forward
