  3. Problem… The Coca-Cola Company, its subsidiaries and products have been subject to sustained criticism by both consumer groups and watchdogs, particularly since the early 2000s. Allegations against the company are varied and criticism has been based around; • Possible health effects of Coca-Cola products • Questionable labor practices (including allegations of involvement with paramilitary organizations in suppression of trade unions) • The company's poor environmental record • Perception of the companies' engagement in monopolistic business practices • Questionable marketing strategies and violations of intellectual property rights. Perception of the company as behaving unethically has led to the formation of pressure groups such as "Killer Coke", boycotts of Coca-Cola and related products and lawsuits

  4. What should Coca Cola do to appease and ensure its survival in the market? • First it has to convince Indian’s government, the world and re-gain the market by: • A variety of corporate social responsibility initiatives, for example with campaigns such as “Every Drop Counts”. • Campaigns to save water, against pollution, recycling and of course, healthier products.

  5. Also, try to solve problems such as: Health effects • Acidity • High fructose (sugar and carbs) • India secret formula ban • Most nutritionists advise that Coca-Cola and other soft drinks can be harmful if consumed excessively. (a lot of sugar and carbs) • Regular soft drink users have a lower intake of calcium, magnesium, ascorbic acid, riboflavin, and vitamin A. • The drink has also aroused criticism for its use of caffeine, which can cause physical dependence. • A link has been shown between long-term regular cola intake and osteoporosis in older women (but not men).

  6. Environmental issues Pesticide use Water use Plants pollution • In India, there exists widespread concern over how Coca-Cola is produced. • In particular, it is feared that the water used to produce Coke may contain unhealthy levels of pesticides and other harmful chemicals. • It has also been alleged that due to the amount of water required to produce Coca-Cola, aquifers are drying up and forcing farmers to relocate • There were several protests opposing the proposed Coca-Cola bottling plant in fear of water depletion and contamination.

  7. Economic business practices Monopolistic Marketing "Channel stuffing" settlement Bribery accusations • Buying biggest companies in each country • Coca-Cola has been accused of bribing the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) • Commercials with healthy image

  8. In this way, Coca Cola wont have so many obstacles to fight with every country’s government.Therefore, an easier way to survive in the market.
