www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

HHiissttoorryy ooff CCooccaa ccoollaa::
Coca-Cola Enterprises, established in 1986, is a young company by the standards of the
Coca-Cola system. Yet each of its franchises has a strong heritage in the traditions of
Coca-Cola that is the foundation for this Company.
The Coca-Cola Company traces it’s beginning to 1886, when an Atlanta pharmacist, Dr.
John Pemberton, began to produce Coca-Cola syrup for sale in fountain drinks. However
the bottling business began in 1899 when two Chattanooga businessmen, Benjamin F.
Thomas and Joseph B. Whitehead, secured the exclusive rights to bottle and sell Coca -
Cola for most of the United States from The Coca-Cola Company.
The Coca-Cola bottling system continued to operate as independent, local businesses
until the early 1980s when bottling franchises began to consolidate. In 1986, The Coca-
Cola Company merged some of its company-owned operations with two large ownership
groups that were for sale, the John T. Lupton franchises and BCI Holding Corporation's
bottling holdings, to form Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc. The Company offered its stock to the
public on November 21, 1986, at a split-adjusted price of $5.50 a share. On an annual
basis, total unit case sales were 880,000 in 1986.
In December 1991, a merger between Coca-Cola Enterprises and the Johnston Coca-Cola
Bottling Group, Inc. (Johnston) created a larger, stronger Company, again helping
accelerate bottler consolidation. As part of the merger, the senior management team of
Johnston assumed responsibility for managing the Company , and began a dramatic,
successful restructuring in 1992.Unit case sales had climbed to 1.4 bill ion, and total
revenues were $5 billion.

Target Market:
Coke’scommercialsbasicallybasedonyounggenerations, so,the younggenerationisthe target market
of Coke because they want to represent Coke with the youth and energy but they also consider about
the old people they take then as a co-target market.
Major segment:
Major segmentsare basicallythose people whotake thisdrinkdailyandthose areas where the demand
ishigherthan the otherareas.There are so manypeople whotake thisdrink dailyandthose peoplewho
take weeklyandthose whotake lessoften are always there as well. So, their basic segments are those
people who take this drink regularly.
Competitors:
Coke’smajorcompetitoris “PEPSI” and there is no hesitation to say this because everyone knows that
and all the other cold drinks and water, coffee, tea is the competitors.
Multan Beverages Limited:
Multan Beverages was established in year 1964 on Vehari road as a franchised unit for Coca-Cola
Company. It supplies soft drink facilities to the people of Multan, D.G. Khan, Vehari and Khanewal.
Initiallyit produced Coca-Cola only and at that time its production capacity was 35 bottles per minute.

had the capacity to produce 320 bottles per minute and company also started production of Fanta and
11. 11
Sprite. Ithas engagedina contract of producingSimba. In 1988, the liter bottle was introduced, which
was greatly appreciated by the customers.
Present Multan Beverages has modified their plant with double line process and is producing 2*320
bottlesperminute,due tothe cryingneedof the customers. Now,the factoryproduces 75% of Coke, 20
% Sprite, 4% Fanta while no return and liter bottle has only 1% share in the overall production. The

Problems for Coca Cola Company:
There are some problemsbeingfacedbya companywhichaffectsitsbusinessstrategies.Itisdifficult to
know where to begin and isolate the events which shape the business environment.

Brand Awareness: Having low promotional strategies that most of their customers are

Strengths: Coca Cola is an extremely recognizable company. Popularity is one of its
superior strengths that are virtually incomparable. Coca Cola is known very well
worldwide. It's branding is obvious and easily recognized. Things like, logos and promos
shown on t-shirts, hats, and collectible memorabilia. Without a doubt, no beverage
company compares to Coca Cola's social popularity status. Some people buy coke, not
only because of its taste, but because it is widely accepted and they feel like they are
part of something so big and unifying. At the other end of the spectrum, certain
individuals choose not to drink coke, based solely on rebelling from the world's idea that
coke is something of such great power. Overwhelming is the best word to describe Coca
Cola's popularity. It is scary to think that its popularity has been constantly growing over
the years and the possibility that there is still room to grow. If you speak the words
“Coca Cola”, it would definitely be recognized all around the world. Money is another
thing that is strength of the company. Coca Cola deals with massive amounts of money
all year. Like all businesses, they have had their ups and downs financially, but they have
done well in this compartment and will continue to do well and improve. The money
they are earning is substantially better than most beverage companies, and with that
money, they put back into their own company so that they can improve. Another
strength that is very important to Coca Cola is customer loyalty. The 80/20 rule comes
into effect in this situation. Eighty percent of their profit comes from 20% of their loyal
customers. Many people/families are extremely loyal to Coca Cola. It would not be rare
to constantly find bottles and cases of a product such as coke in a house. It seems that
some people would drink coke religiously like some people would drink water and milk.
This is an improbable feat. Customers will continually purchase these products, and will
probably do so for a very long time. If two parents were avid Coca Cola drinkers, this will
be passed down do their children as they grow loyal to the company. With Coca Cola’s
ability to sell their product all over the world, customers will continue to buy what they
know and what they like…Coca Cola products.
Weaknesses: Coca Cola is a very successful company, with limited weaknesses. However
they do have a variety of weaknesses that need to be addressed if they want to rise to
the next level. Word of mouth is probably a strength and weakness of every company.
While many people have good things to say, there are many individuals who are against
Coca Cola as a company, and the products in which they produce. Word of mouth
unfortunately is something that is very hard to control. While people will have their
opinions, you have to try to sway their negative views. If bad comments and views are
put out to people who have yet to try Coca Cola products, then that could produce a lost
customer which shows why word of mouth is a weakness. Another aspect that could be
16. 16
viewed as a weakness is the lack of popularity of many of Coca Cola’s drinks. Many
drinks that they produce are extremely popular such as Coke and Sprite but this
company has approximately 400 different drink types. Most are unknown and rarely
seen for available purchase. These drinks do not probably taste bad, but are rather a
result of low profile or nonexistent advertising. This is a weakness that needs to be
looked at when analyzing their company. Another weakness that has been greatly
publicized is the health issues that surround some of their products. It is known that a
popular product like coke is not very beneficial to your body and your health. With
today’s constant shift to health products, some products could possibly loose
customers. This new focus on weight and health could be a problem for the product that
is labeled detrimental to your health.
Opportunities: Coca Cola has a few opportunities in its business. It has many successful
brands that it should continue to exploit and pursue. Coca Cola also has the opportunity
to advertise its less popular products. With a large income it has the available money to
put some of these other beverages on the market. This could be very beneficial to the
company if they could start selling these other products to the same extent that they do
with their main products. Another opportunity that we have seen being put to use
before is the ability for Coca Cola to buy out their competition. This opportunity rarely
presents itself in the world of business. However, with Coca Cola’s power and success,
such a task is not impossible. Coca Cola has bought out a countless number of drink
brands. An easy way to turn their profit into your profit is too buy out their company.
Even though this may cost a vast amount of money initially, in the long run, if all goes to
plan, it results in a large profit. Also, the company will no longer need to worry about
this product being part of the competition. Brand recognition is the significant factor
affecting Cokes competitive position. Coca Cola is known well throughout 90% of the
world population today. Now Coca Cola wants to get there brand name known even
better and possibly get closer and closer to 100%. It is an opportunity that most
companies will ever dream of, and would be a supreme success. Coca Cola has an
opportunity to continue to widen the gap between them and their competitors.
Threats: Despite the fact that Coca Cola dominates its market, it still has to deal with
many threats. Even though Coca Cola and Pepsi control nearly 40% of the entire
beverage market, the changing health-consciousness attitude of the market could have
a serious effect on Coca Cola. This definitely needs to be viewed as a dominant threat. In
today’s world, people are constantly trying to change their eating and drinking habits.
17. 17
This could directly affect the sale of Coca Cola’s products. Another possible issue is the
legal side of things. There are always issues with a company of such supreme wealth and
popularity. Somebody is always trying to find fault with the best and take them down.
Coca Cola has to be careful with lawsuits. Health minister could also be looked at as a
threat. Again, some people may try to exploit the unhealthy side of Coca Cola’s products
and could threaten the status and success of sales. Other threats are of course the
competition. Coca Cola’s main competition being Pepsi, sells a very similar drink. Coca
Cola needs to be careful that Pepsi does not grow to be a more successful drink. Other
product such as juices, coffee, and milk are threats. These other beverage options could
take precedent in some people’s minds over Coca Cola’s beverages and this could
threaten the potential success it presents again.
