At this time the country of Brazil is the world’s 3rd largest soft drink market, with a market growth rate of nearly 18% per year. In the last 30 years alone, Brazil’s soft drink industry has grown by 400% total. -Coca Cola currently controls 50,1% of Brazils total soda market share, we feel that this could increase significantly with Barq’s market entry. -We at Coca-Cola believe that our team has significant potential for success with our introduction of Barq’s root beer into Brazil.
- OSCAR from gp 2.1 May want to mention: Shorten bullets?Brazil is collectivist or group oriented society that feels need to establish relationship, prefers face to face meetings

- ASHLEEOur product name will remain the same, “Barq’s root beer,” with initial size of 20 ounce bottles. We believe that proper localization to the Brazilian market, includes changing of english to Portuguese on the bottle.-Brazil enjoys loud bright colors, and are relatively vibrant individuals. We feel that to target our market segment of ages _______ we must adapt to our market. In order to appeal to our target market we will use glass bottles for packaging with a bright sun orange color on our label background. Our lettering will also adapt to Brazilians, while our logo will remain the same. We feel that changing our lettering to appear more like the curvature of Coca-Cola’s bottle insriptions we can send a message to our market allowing them to connect Coca-Cola to Barq’s as a Coca-Cola product, we will also inform our consumers that Barq’s is a product of Coca-Cola distributions. -We plan to translate our slogan “Famous OldeTyme Root Beer since 1898. It’s Good!” from english to portuguese.At the bottom of our bottle we will add, “Product of Coca-Cola. Satisfaction Guaranteed,” also in Protuguese. -During the FIFA world cup we will introduce a new bottle design to specifically appeal to the young segment of Brazil and their liking. -Barq’s root beer contains a weak scent of wintergreen.
- ASHLEE:Coca-Cola and our marketing team believe that a direct investment mode of entry would be our best option, considering Coca-Cola is already a large market controller of Brazil. -Agents: AKQA, is a marketing agency that is well known and established with over 1,000 employees around the world. AKQA focuses on interactive marketing, and will be Coca-Cola and Barq’s agent responsible for advertisement and promotion. -Currently Coca-Cola has 39 bottling plants located in Brazil. Our barq’s products will be prepared within Brazil at our bottling plants, providing a local touch and localizing to our target market. -Coca-Cola Femsa will be responsible for Barq’s distribution, to begin our product launch, Coca-Cola Femsa will distribute Barq’s to specific regions of Campinas, Santos, Sao Paulo, parts of MatoGrosso de Sul, and Parts of Goias. -Our Goal is for Coca-Cola Femsa to be distributing Barq’s throughout all regions of Brazil within 5 years. -From a retail perspective, Coca-Cola will offer Barq’s root beer at wal-mart, Carrefour and Pao Do Acucar.-Wal-mart and Carrefour are currently launching 70 stores a year within Brazil, this gives Coca-Cola more reason to offer Barq’s at these specific retailers.
