Another option is to take advantage of a new health trend and offer to the customers many varieties of naturally flavored water. While spending $80 to $200 on soda maker might be a good
1) Do you think Coca-Cola has used corporate social responsibility principles in addressing the obesity crisis? Explain in detail I believe Coca-Cola has used corporate social responsibility or CSR principles in addressing the obesity crisis. When watching their commercial called ‘Coming together(p.37).’, I realized that Coca-Cola really is trying to make a difference in society.

If Pepsi were to offer a new product it wouldn't be surprising to see Coca-Cola follow suit. But in the financial evaluation comparison of Coca-Cola, and Pepsi-Co it is easy to see Coca-Cola's in the lead. This is largely due to the international market. Coca-Cola entered foreign markets a lot differently than Pepsi-Co, providing it an edge over Pepsi-Co While Pepsi-Co invested heavily in foreign markets, Coca-Cola's appointed bottlers with significant experience easily neutralized any threat Pepsi-Co could pose.
