Trang 9• Recycling or recovering more than 90% of vehicle materials by 2010 Leading the industry in re-packaging Coca Cola has invested about $60 million in recycling in the United States and built a plastic bottle recycling plant that is said to be the largest in the world The Spartanburg plant in Southern California is part of Coca-Cola's goal of 100% recycling PET bottles
in the United States Sandy Douglas, President of Coca-Cola North America, said
- In the Vietnamese market, in order to bring to Vietnamese customers new and attractive things for its products, Coca-Cola should regularly and flexibly innovate packaging designs through eye-catching images , lively in order to bring customers a feeling of novelty, uniqueness, fun and optimism For example, during Vietnam's traditional Tet holiday, the image of a "golden swallow" flapping its wings is printed on a variety of products such as 24-can cans of Coca-Cola, and a pair of Coca-Cola 1.25 PET bottles liters, etc have made a great impression on Vietnamese consumers This image not only symbolizes the coming of spring but also wealth, fortune and prosperity according to the traditional view of the Vietnamese people
- Continue implementing the campaign "A World Without Waste"
The company's goal by 2030 is to collect and recycle 100% of the plastic cans and bottles for every product it sells
- To maintain the growth momentum in the beverage market, Coca Cola should come up with unique solutions and policies to attract consumers Along with constantly improving product quality with the orientation to become a comprehensive beverage company, Coca-Cola has constantly innovated to launch many new types of beverage
- According to Coca-Cola's calculations, recycling plastic is both financially profitable and helps protect the environment Energy costs are lower than using raw materials, reducing waste and greenhouse gases The Spartanburg plant will help reduce CO2 emissions equivalent to 21,500 cars over the next decade Coca-Cola established a special division Coca Cola Recycling LLC in November 2006 This division specializes in the research and development of recycling systems for packaging materials such as plastic, aluminum, cardboard and plastic screens Coca Cola intends to establish a network of recycling centers throughout the United States and invest in collection companies Among them are RecycleBank with locations in New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania and soon to expand to New York, Vermont, Massachusetts later this year

Trang 10The sustainable development strategy associated with the environment of Coca-Cola Vietnam has been started right from the early years of its establishment,
“These lines apply not only the most advanced technology but also the most environmentally friendly technology, helping us save 10% of electricity consumption, 15% of steam and 20% of water consumption " , Mr Irial Finan shared
This investment is in line with Coca-Cola's commitment to saving energy and protecting the environment, which has been one of the criteria for evaluating the business's success for many years
V Conclusion
Making an impression in the customer's mind is not an easy thing, it takes a lot
of time and effort, Coca-cola has done a great job with it with the logo font
"unchanged" whether now or forever
Affirming its position in the market with increasingly fierce competition for market share with other brands is always something that any brand must pay attention to, and Coca-Cola always does this very well
The company makes good use of both online and offline communication solutions to cleverly promote its image, always making consumers remember themselves whenever there is a need to use soft drinks in life The proof is that, although more and more beverage brands have been launched in the market, Coca-Cola still maintains its market share worldwide
It can be seen that Coca-Cola has applied many marketing strategies to bring products closer to consumers and help the brand achieve the current success These strategies are generally widely used and effective However, besides that, there are still small limitations in the advertising strategy
Coca-Cola's confidence is what makes the brand today, evident in their advertising slogans Theme sentences such as “The Nation's Great Non-Alcoholic Drink” (1906), “6 million a day” (1925), “What you want is a Coke” (1952), and “Always Coca- Cola” (1993) both demonstrate the ambition and confidence of this brand Coca Cola always invests in advertising strategies for its products
From there, we can see the importance and role of communication communication in marketing campaigns to promote products to consumers, and this is also a decisive factor for the survival or boom of the company trademark Applying communication in the process of operation to spread
