more from coca cola to provide an extra distribution channels which could help them to spread
their products at large. Coca-Cola products are some where not available in rural area due to
insufficient distribution system.

distribution system, to make it efficient. They need investment to encourage retailers to provide
space to their products, in the form of providing coolers. Company is not in a situation to provide
it to all its retailing stores while its competitors PEPSI COLA provides it to its distributors to
promote his product in the market which is their competitive edge to increase its share in the
market. It creates an attraction to its distributors to take its products more to take incentives of
special discounts provided by the company to its distributors, wholesalers, and retailers. This is
relatively a long term process to penetrate in the market and gain the market share.

is music, on the other hand PEPSI has another very important advertising platform which is
Cricket. Most of youngsters are attracted towards it.
