PRODUCTION PROCESS:-
The production process being carried on the S.M.V. Beverages (Jamshedpur) in four batch type. The entire process is almost automatic and it requires huge amount of water and electricity. The production is divided into following steps:-
F water treatment
F Bottle washing
F Syrup preparation
F Filling
F Shipping
WATER TREATMENT:-
S.M.V. Beverages (Jamshedpur) gets water from Sitarampur Dam. This water being collected in huge tanks undergoes two different treatments resulting in soft water and treated water.
Before ensuring production, this raw water is being treated in the water treatment plant.
Soft water The municipal is passed through sand filter, carbon purified and salt charged softeners (to remove hardness). The water obtained after this treatment is called soft water. This soft water being kept with 2-4 PPM c12 in storage tank is used for bottle washing and the water being stored with c12 goes to the boiler.
TREATED WATER:
The municipal water is at first treated with Ferrous sulphate (FeSO4), Lime (CaOH) and Chlorine. This process involed is called coagulation and it takes place in the reaction tank. From reaction tank the water moves on to the intermediate tank to be stored in storage tank. From there it passes through the sand filter, carbon purifier, micropurifire and ultra-violet light. Water obtained after this much treatment is called treated water and is used preparation of drink.
BOTTLE WASHING:
Empty bottle coming back from market need to be washed before filling. Washing of bottles is a completely automatic process. This takes place in a machine having three chambers. Bottles are put on the conveyor and as they enter the machine they undergo three successive treatments. At first, they are treated with 4% caustic soda at 100-150oF. In the next chamber, they are treated with 2% caustic soda at 120 F and in the third chamber they are treated with soft water. The cleaned bottles are sent to inspection, where the upper and lower portions of the bottle are watching successively against strong light.
SYRUP PREPERATION:-
Syrup room is situated in the first floor. Here syrup is prepared from filtered water, sugar and the concentration. The room is well equipped with several tanks and filter press. The first one is “Heating Tank” in which syrup is actually prepared. Calculated amount of syrup along with concentrate and water are being heated up to 85 o C. Thus a saturated solution is being prepared. Next it is sent through a machine called “Filter Press” syrup is filtered here.
Filtered syrup is next passed through a para flow cooler, whereby recycling and glycol method, the temperature of the syrup is cooled down to 20-25oC cooled syrup is then stored in the syrup tanks.

FILLING:-
Syrup comes to the traumatic machine. Hare syrup is mixed with carbonated water under pressure in definite proportion. Inspected bottled gradually comes under the “Filtration Machine”. Carbonated syrup by this time fills the filler machine. From this machine, syrup is poured into the bottles in calculated amount. The exact rate of filling is 620bottles per minute.
SHIPPING:-
After the whole process of bottling is completed, filled bottles in cases (crates) are sent to the shipping department and it sends them to different destinations for sales.
INTRODUCTION TO PEPSICO.
Caleb D. Bradham was born in Chinquatin, North Carolina in 1866 to a well-to-do family. Caleb was a very well liked young man who was not only very smart, but very popular as well. Caleb wanted to become a doctor and after graduating the university of North Carolina he entered medical school at the university of Maryland. Caleb’s father failed in his business. Caleb had to quit school and take a job, so he moved to New Bern, North Carolina and took a job in a teaching school.
Sometime in the 1890s Caleb created one such drink that became quite popular at the Bradham Pharmacy and the patrons started calling it “Brad’s Drink” in Caleb’s honor. However, Caleb preferred another name for this drink, and he decided to call it Pepsi-cola.
There has been some dispute as to whether or not the original Pepsi-cola actually contains pepsin as an ingredient. The term “Pepsi” in its name is surely an indicator. One of Pepsi-cola’s earliest known advertisement is found in the Feb. 25th , 1903 New Bern Daily journal, and one of its claims was that it “Aids Digestion”—a popular claim for items containing pepsin. Lastly, another news paper ad produced in 1908 flat-out said “PEPSI-Cola is an absolutely pure combination of pepsin—that’s what your stomach needs these days—acid phosphate and the juices of fresh fruits.”
In 1903 Caleb filed for a trademark for Pepsi-Cola with the state of North Carolina, and the documents there indicate that Pepsi-Cola had been in continual use since August 8, 1898. However, in 1906 Caleb had to register “Pepsi-Cola” a second time with the U.S. patent office because there was already a product named “Pep-Kola” on the market. The patent office believed these two names were too similar and since Pep-Kola had been trademarked on Feb.15, 1896, Pepsi-Cola had to come up with a new trademark. Instead of changing the name of his product, Caleb bought the rights to the “Pep-Kola” trademark and reapplied for his trademark in 1906. On these papers he gave the date Feb. 15, 1896 as the earliest date Pepsi-cola or names thus derived were used by him. However, August 28, 1898 is the date most people set as the date that Pepsi-Cola came into being existing.
In any event, by 1902, Caleb had taken on an assistant named R.F.Butler, but better known as “Uncle Dick,” and while uncle Dick was put in charge of running the pharmacy, Caleb threw all of his energy into Pepsi-Cola. In his first three months Caleb sold 2,008 gallons of Pepsi-Cola syrup. By the end of his first year he had sold 7,968 gallons of syrup. By 1904 he was selling 19,848 gallons a year, and this is also the same year he started bottling Pepsi-Cola. A year later he also began selling Pepsi-Cola bottling franchises, and then he started expanding rapidly.
By 1910 he had 280 bottling franchises and covered at least 24 states. By 1907 he was selling over 100,000 gallons of syrup a year, and in 1915 Pepsi-Cola corporation had assets of over $1,000,000.
During World War I sugar prices to fluctuate wildly, and that was assuming one could get their hands on a supply of sugar at all. Eventually the Government implemented price controls to stabilize the costs of sugar, but even that didn’t help with the erratic supply side of the sugar market. It was believed that once the war ended that things would return to normal. However, once the war ended and the price controls were lifted, sugar quickly jumped in price. To make matters worse, it appeared that the cost of sugar was going to keep going up. Caleb and many other soft drink manufacturers decided to buy huge amounts of sugar now, and thus protect themselves from even higher sugar prices. Bad decision! Sugar prices peaked at 26? Per pound then the prices collapsed and within a few months sugar was selling bellow 2? Per pound. During the previous couple of years, Pepsi-Cola had been operating at a loss because of fluctuating sugar prices and supplies, but now they faced a loss so large that it was unlikely they would be able to recover.
By March 2, 1923 “The Pepsi-Cola Corporation” was bankrupt, and two years later “The Pepsi-Cola Corporation” was allowed to die for nonpayment of taxes. In 1934, at the age of 67, Caleb Bradham died not even able to hold onto his original drug store.
In 1923, when Pepsi-Cola went bankrupt, its creditors had formed a corporation named “Craven Holding Corporation.” Once the bankruptcy tooks place this new corporation paid $30,000 for all of “The Pepsi-Cola Corporation’s” assets including the trademark to Pepsi-Cola. This was a pretty common practice for creditors as it made handling the bankruptcy easier. In July of 1923, and man named Roy megargel formed the “Pepsi-Cola Corporation” in Virginia and purchased all of the assets of Pepsi-cola from the craven Holding Corporation for $35,000.
Loft owned and directly operated about 200 candy stores, and most of these had soda fountains. In 1931, these Loft candy stores had sold over 30,000 gallons of Coca-cola, and Guth believed that since this was Wholesale quantity he warranted a jobbers (middleman) discount. Coca-cola disagreed with Guth, and repeatedly turned down Guth’s discount request. Now Guth was ticked, and Guth wasn’t the kind of guy you wanted to get mad. Guth didn’t just switch from buying coca-cola to buying a competitor’s product, but instead he bought Pepsi-Cola and became Coca-Col’s worst nightmare.
Megargel had contacted Guth and told him of the troubles he was having with Pepsi-Cola. Guth then made an agreement with Megargel and this is how it worked. Guth “borrowed” money from Loft Inc. (he was short of case since his money was tied up in Loft stock) and gave it to Megargel to buy Pepsi-Cola at the bankruptcy auction. Guth then formed the “Pepsi-Cola company”, a Delaware corporation with 300,000 shares of stock. After Megargel purchased Pepsi-Cola at the auction for $ 10,500, Megargel then owned 100,000 shares of the new company, Guth owned 100,000 shares (actually the Grace Company owned the shares but Guth owned the Grace Company), and 100,000 shares would be kept by the new Pepsi-Cola company to raise money in the future. Megargel was also promised a salary of $ 25,000 a year for six years, and after the six were up, a2?? Royalty for each gallon of Pepsi-cola sold.
PepsiCo in India
PepsiCo gained entry to India in 1988 by creating a joint venture with the Punjab government-owned Punjab Agro Industrial Corporation (PAIC) and Voltas India Limited. This joint venture marketed and sold Lehar Pepsi until 1991, when the use of foreign brands was allowed; PepsiCo bought out its partners and ended the joint venture in 1994. [5] Others claim that firstly Pepsi was banned from import in India, in 1970, for having refused to release the list of its ingredients and in 1993, the ban was lifted, with Pepsi arriving on the market shortly afterwards. These controversies are a reminder of "India's sometimes acrimonious relationship with huge multinational companies." Indeed, some argue that PepsiCo and The Coca-Cola Company have "been major targets in part because they are well-known foreign companies that draw plenty of attention." [6]
In 2003, the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE), a non-governmental organization in New Delhi, said aerated waters produced by soft drinks manufacturers in India, including multinational giants PepsiCo and The Coca-Cola Company, contained toxins, including lindane, DDT, malathion and chlorpyrifos — pesticides that can contribute to cancer, a breakdown of the immune system and cause birth defects. Tested products included Coke, Pepsi, 7 Up, Mirinda, Fanta, Thums Up, Limca, and Sprite. CSE found that the Indian-produced Pepsi's soft drink products had 36 times the level of pesticide residues permitted under European Union regulations; Coca Cola's 30 times. [7]CSE said it had tested the same products in the US and found no such residues. However, this was the European standard for water, not for other drinks. No law bans the presence of pesticides in drinks in India.
INDUSTARY PROFILE
MARKET UNIVERSE
SOFT DRINK INDUSTRIES IN INDIA
A soft drink is a non-alcoholic beverage. It is artificially flavored and contains no fruit or pulp. India with population of more than 100 crores is potentially one of the largest consumer markets in the world after china. The consumer market can be defined as the market for products and services that are purchased by individuals as households goods for their personal consumption. Soft drink is a typical consumer product purchased by individuals to quench thirst and secondly for refreshment.
Searching for the point of Indian soft drink we first document on Gold Spot, this was the first brand soft drink in India. It was introduced by PARLE during later part of 40’s.
Cola giant, Coca-Cola was the first foreign soft drink to be introduced India in 1965, Coca-Cola make a very good beginning and dominated the whole scheme right from the word go. It (Coca-Cola) faced no competition at that time. COCA-COLA entered India in the year 1993 in collaboration with PARLE INDIA LIMITED.
The marketing people did not even receive to publicize Coca-Cola for it sold first like probability not-cakes. This extra ordinary success of soft drinks can be attributed to the following factors:
Absence of contemporary competitive brand.
Euphoric image build up in the western countries proceeded the entry into Indian market, and
Indians are very found by nature of foreign goods, services etc. due to prolonged foreign rules.
Parle Exports Pvt. Ltd. Later in 1970 introduced Limca , Lemoney soft drinks. Before Limca introduced, they had tentatively introduced Cola, Pepino, which they had to soon withdraw in the face of battering confrontation with Coca-Cola.
Three of four groups of Indians companies who had the required production capacity started their own brands of Cola, Lemon, Orange, but failed to achieve their goal on a National basis.
India always has love and hate relationships with MNC’s which gave a significant opportunities to soft drinks industries in India when Coca-Cola decided to windup its operation in 1977 rather then bowing to the Indian govt. insisting on:-
Dilution of equity, as the govt. felt that lots of foreign currency was being wasted.
Manufacturing of the top-secret concentration in India.
Disclose of the chemical composition of the essence.
This left a large vaccum in the soft drink market, and a vista opened to any company with the requisite, technical, marketing and organizational skills. The exit of Coca-Cola from India in 1977 accelerated the growth of several Indian soft drinks. New soft drink in the form of Tetra pack entered the market among Frooti, Jump-In and Treetop were the prominent once. Till1 1977 their equipped bottling plants and the distribution network a longing to be of no use. It took them one year to develop new formula to survive and gradually came up with Campa, Lemon, Orange and Cola that order.
However Parle, the pioneer in the sot drinks, blazed its way to national prominent with their product “Thumps up” bearing the slogan “Happy Days Are Here Again”. This particular slogan helped to win over the loyalist or addicts to Coca-Cola, who was in the state of “Cola Shock” or Cola Depression. Soon the Indian soft drink industry started at a phenomenal rate, and all Parle product Gold Spot, Limca and Thumps up became the brand in their own segment.
Inspite of all these, the drink market still has large gap, as claim by soft drink manufactures. To fill these gaps there are many soft drink concentrate and squashes flooded the market. The Indian soft market basically offered three flavours i.e., Orange, Lemon and Cola.
1990 saw the comings of the multinational company PEPSI entering the Indian market. 11 years after the exit of Coca-Cola. It had name, fame and edge of being one of the best in the game and it also offered stiff competition to Parle and Coke. Pepsi Cola Company founded by CALEB BRADHAM in 1890 at North Carolina in USA. Now it is ranked 86th (1998) in the world with the asset of around $ 25,000 million, having its headquarter at ATLANTA. Its CEO is ROGER ENRICO and PepsiCo.

MARKETING STRATEGIES.
INTRODUCTION
Marketing needs a framework that begins and ends with the customer. Marketing tools by themselves do not achieve marketing objectives. There is an intermediate step between the deployment of marketing tools and achievement of marketing objectives. A marketing network consists of the company and its supporting stakeholders (customers, suppliers, distributors, retailers, ad-agencies and others). The operating principle is simple: build and effective network of relationship with key stakeholders, and profit will follow.
A set of marketing tools the firm uses to pursue its marketing objectives are called marketing-mix. These tools can be classified into four groups which are called the four P’s of marketing.
MARKETING MIX TARGET MARKET PRODUCT PRICE PLACE PROMOTION
However some academician feels that the four P’s of marketing have become redundant and need to be replaced by the four A’s or four C’s of marketing .
FOUR A’S ACCEPTABILITY AFFORDABILITY AWARNESS ACCESSIBILITY
FOUR C’S CUSTOMER VALUE CUSTOMER COST CUSTOMER COMMUNICATION CUSTOMER SOLUTION
Soft drink is a FMCG product which has a wide and scattered market. Thus in order to succeed companies needs to break down their marketing activities into sub-parts to effectively meet the customer needs.
The entire marketing in this case is divided into three parts:
Root marketing
Home marketing
At work marketing
ROUTE MARKETING
Outlets coming under this market cater to the needs of those customers who are engaged in shopping, eating out in restraunts, going to and from work, in amusement centers etc. In simpler words this marketing is what we call the bazaar
