A brief History of Pepsi
Born in the Carolinas in 1898, Pepsi-Cola has a long and rich history. The drink is the
invention of Caleb Bradham (left), a pharmacist and drugstore owner in New Bern, North
Carolina.
The information published here is provided by PepsiCo, Inc. and may be accessed at their
site: www.pepsi.com.
The summer of 1898, as usual, was hot and humid in New Bern, North Carolina. So a
young pharmacist named Caleb Bradham began experimenting with combinations of
spices, juices, and syrups trying to create a refreshing new drink to serve his customers.
He succeeded beyond all expectations because he invented the beverage known around
the world as Pepsi-Cola.
Caleb Bradham knew that to keep people returning to his pharmacy, he would have to
turn it into a gathering place. He did so by concocting his own special beverage, a soft
drink. His creation, a unique mixture of kola nut extract, vanilla and rare oils, became so
popular his customers named it "Brad's Drink." Caleb decided to rename it "Pepsi-Cola,"
and advertised his new soft drink. People responded, and sales of Pepsi-Cola started to
grow, convincing him that he should form a company to market the new beverage.
In 1902, he launched the Pepsi-Cola Company in the back room of his pharmacy, and
applied to the U.S. Patent Office for a trademark. At first, he mixed the syrup himself and
sold it exclusively through soda fountains. But soon Caleb recognized that a greater
opportunity existed to bottle Pepsi so that people could drink it anywhere.
The business began to grow, and on June 16, 1903, "Pepsi-Cola" was officially registered
with the U.S. Patent Office. That year, Caleb sold 7,968 gallons of syrup, using the theme
line "Exhilarating, Invigorating, Aids Digestion." He also began awarding franchises to
bottle Pepsi to independent investors, whose number grew from just two in 1905, in the
cities of Charlotte and Durham, North Carolina, to 15 the following year, and 40 by 1907.
By the end of 1910, there were Pepsi-Cola franchises in 24 states.
Pepsi-Cola's first bottling line resulted from some less-than-sophisticated engineering in
the back room of Caleb's pharmacy. Building a strong franchise system was one of
University Of the Punjab, Gujranwala Campus Page 2

Caleb's greatest achievements. Local Pepsi-Cola bottlers, entrepreneurial in spirit and
dedicated to the product's success, provided a sturdy foundation. They were the
cornerstone of the Pepsi-Cola enterprise. By 1907, the new company was selling more
than 100,000 gallons of syrup per year.
Growth was phenomenal, and in 1909 Caleb erected a headquarters so spectacular that
the town of New Bern pictured it on a postcard. Famous racing car driver Barney
Oldfield endorsed Pepsi in newspaper ads as "A bully drink...refreshing, invigorating, a
fine bracer before a race."
The previous year, Pepsi had been one of the first companies in the United States to
switch from horse-drawn transport to motor vehicles, and Caleb's business expertise
captured widespread attention. He was even mentioned as a possible candidate for
Governor. A 1913 editorial in the Greensboro Patriot praised him for his "keen and
energetic business sense."
Pepsi-Cola enjoyed 17 unbroken years of success. Caleb now promoted Pepsi sales with
the slogan, "Drink Pepsi-Cola. It will satisfy you." Then came World War I, and the cost
of doing business increased drastically. Sugar prices see sawed between record highs and
disastrous lows, and so did the price of producing Pepsi-Cola. Caleb was forced into a
series of business gambles just to survive, until finally, after three exhausting years, his
luck ran out and he was bankrupted. By 1921, only two plants remained open. It wasn't
until a successful candy manufacturer, Charles G. Guth, appeared on the scene that the
future of Pepsi-Cola was assured. Guth was president of Loft Incorporated, a large chain
of candy stores and soda fountains along the eastern seaboard. He saw Pepsi-Cola as an
opportunity to discontinue an unsatisfactory business relationship with the Coca-Cola
Company, and at the same time to add an attractive drawing card to Loft's soda fountains.
He was right. After five owners and 15 unprofitable years, Pepsi-Cola was once again a
thriving national brand.
One oddity of the time, for a number of years, all of Pepsi-Cola's sales were actually
administered from a Baltimore building apparently owned by Coca-Cola, and named for
its president. Within two years, Pepsi would earn $1 million for its new owner. With the
resurgence came new confidence, a rarity in those days because the nation was in the
University Of the Punjab, Gujranwala Campus Page 3

early stages of a severe economic decline that came to be known as the Great
Depression.
1898 Caleb Bradham, a New Bern, North Carolina, pharmacist, renames "Brad's Drink,"
a carbonated soft drink he created to serve his drugstore's fountain customers. The new
name, Pepsi-Cola, is derived from two of the principal ingredients, pepsin and kola nuts.
It is first used on August 28.
1902 Bradham applies to the U.S. Patent Office for a trademark for the Pepsi-Cola name.
1903 In keeping with its origin as a pharmacist's concoction, Bradham's advertising
praises his drink as "Exhilarating, invigorating, aids digestion."
1905 A new logo appears, the first change from the original created in 1898.
1906 The logo is redesigned and a new slogan added: "The original pure food drink." The
trademark is registered in Canada.
1907 The Pepsi trademark is registered in Mexico.
1909 Automobile racing pioneer Barney Oldfield becomes Pepsi's first celebrity endorser
when he appears in newspaper ads describing Pepsi-Cola as "A bully drink...refreshing,
invigorating, a fine bracer before a race." The theme "Delicious and Healthful" appears,
and will be used intermittently over the next two decades.
1920 Pepsi appeals to consumers with, "Drink Pepsi-Cola. It will satisfy you."
1932 The trademark is registered in Argentina.
1934 Pepsi begins selling a 12-ounce bottle for five cents, the same price charged by its
competitors for six ounces.
1938 The trademark is registered in the Soviet Union.
1939 A newspaper cartoon strip, "Pepsi & Pete," introduces the theme "Twice as Much
for a Nickel" to increase consumer awareness of Pepsi's value advantage.
1940 Pepsi makes advertising history with the first advertising jingle ever broadcast
nationwide. "Nickel, Nickel" will eventually become a hit record and will be translated
into 55 languages. A new, more modern logo is adopted.
1941 In support of America's war effort, Pepsi changes the color of its bottle crowns to
red, white and blue. A Pepsi canteen in Times Square, New York, operates throughout
University Of the Punjab, Gujranwala Campus Page 4
Internship Report On NBC
the war, enabling more than a million families to record messages for armed services
personnel overseas.
1943 The "Twice as Much" advertising strategy expands to include the theme, "Bigger
Drink, Better Taste."
1949 "Why take less when Pepsi's best?" is added to "Twice as Much" advertising.
1950 "More Bounce to the Ounce" becomes Pepsi's new theme as changing soft drink
economics force Pepsi to raise prices to competitive levels. The logo is again updated.
1953 Americans become more weight conscious, and a new strategy based on Pepsi's
lower caloric content is implemented with "The Light Refreshment" campaign.
1954 "The Light Refreshment" evolves to incorporate "Refreshing without Filling."
1958 Pepsi struggles to enhance its brand image. Sometimes referred to as "the kitchen
cola," as a consequence of its long-time positioning as a bargain brand, Pepsi now
identifies itself with young, fashionable consumers with the "Be Sociable, Have a Pepsi"
theme. A distinctive "swirl" bottle replaces Pepsi's earlier straight-sided bottle.
1959 Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev and U.S. Vice-President Richard Nixon meet in
the soon-to-be-famous "kitchen debate" at an international trade fair. The meeting, over
Pepsi, is photo-captioned in the U.S. as "Khrushchev Gets Sociable."
1961 Pepsi further refines its target audience, recognizing the increasing importance of
the younger, post-war generation. "Now it's Pepsi, for Those who think Young" defines
youth as a state of mind as much as a chronological age, maintaining the brand's appeal to
all market segments.
1963 In one of the most significant demographic events in commercial history, the post-
war baby boom emerges as a social and marketplace phenomenon. Pepsi recognizes the
change, and positions Pepsi as the brand belonging to the new generation-The Pepsi
Generation. "Come alive! You're in the Pepsi Generation" makes advertising history. It is
the first time a product is identified, not so much by its attributes, as by its consumers'
lifestyles and attitudes.
1964 A new product, Diet Pepsi, is introduced into Pepsi-Cola advertising.
1966 Diet Pepsi's first independent campaign, "Girl watchers," focuses on the cosmetic
benefits of the low-calorie cola. The "Girl watchers" musical theme becomes a Top 40
University Of the Punjab, Gujranwala Campus Page 5
Internship Report On NBC
hit. Advertising for another new product, Mountain Dew, a regional brand acquired in
1964, airs for the first time, built around the instantly recognizable tag line, "Yaa Hoo,
Mountain Dew!"
1967 When research indicates that consumers place a premium on Pepsi's superior taste
when chilled, "Taste that beats the others cold. Pepsi pours it on" emphasizes Pepsi's
product superiority. The campaign, while product-oriented, adheres closely to the
energetic, youthful, lifestyle imagery established in the initial Pepsi Generation
campaign.
1969 "You've got a lot to live. Pepsi's got a lot to give" marks a shift in Pepsi Generation
advertising strategy. Youth and lifestyle are still the campaign's driving forces, but with
"Live/Give," a new awareness and a reflection of contemporary events and mood become
integral parts of the advertising's texture.
1973 Pepsi Generation advertising continues to evolve. "Join the Pepsi People, Feeling'
Free" captures the mood of a nation involved in massive social and political change. It
pictures us the way we are-one people, but many personalities.
1975 The Pepsi Challenge, a landmark marketing strategy, convinces millions of
consumers that Pepsi's taste is superior.
1976 "Have a Pepsi Day" is the Pepsi Generation's upbeat reflection of an improving
national mood. "Puppies," a 30-second snapshot of an encounter between a very small
boy and some even smaller dogs, becomes an instant commercial classic.
1979 With the end of the '70s comes the end of a national malaise. Patriotism has been
restored by an exuberant celebration of the U.S. bicentennial, and Americans are looking
to the future with renewed optimism. "Catch that Pepsi Spirit!" catches the mood and the
Pepsi Generation carries it forward into the '80s.
1982 With all the evidence showing that Pepsi's taste is superior, the only question
remaining is how to add that message to Pepsi Generation advertising. The
answer…"Pepsi got your Taste for Life!" a triumphant celebration of great times and
great taste.
1983 The soft drink market grows more competitive, but for Pepsi drinkers, the battle is
won. The time is right and so is their soft drink. It's got to be "Pepsi Now!"
University Of the Punjab, Gujranwala Campus Page 6

1984 A new generation has emerged-in the United States, around the world and in Pepsi
advertising, too. "Pepsi. The Choice of a New Generation" announces the change, and the
most popular entertainer of the time, Michael Jackson, stars in the first two commercials
of the new campaign. The two spots quickly become "the most eagerly awaited
advertising of all time."
1985 Lionel Richie leads a star-studded parade into "New Generation" advertising
followed by pop music icons Tina Turner and Gloria Estefan. Sports heroes Joe Montana
and Dan Marino are part of it, as are film and television stars Teri Garr and Billy Crystal.
Geraldine Ferraro, the first woman nominated to be vice president of the U.S., stars in a
Diet Pepsi spot. And the irrepressible Michael J. Fox brings a special talent, style and
spirit to a series of Pepsi and Diet Pepsi commercials, including a classic, "Apartment
10G."
1987 After an absence of 27 years, Pepsi returns to Times Square, New York, with a
spectacular 850-square foot electronic display billboard declaring Pepsi to be "America's
Choice."
1988 Michael Jackson returns to "New Generation" advertising to star in a four-part
"episodic" commercial named "Chase." "Chase" airs during the Grammy Awards
program and is immediately hailed by the media as "the most-watched commercial in
advertising history."
1989 "The Choice of a New Generation" theme expands to categorize Pepsi users as "A
Generation Ahead!"
1990 Teen stars Fred Savage and Kirk Cameron join the "New Generation" campaign,
and football legend Joe Montana returns in a spot challenging other celebrities to taste
test their colas against Pepsi. Music legend Ray Charles stars in a new Diet Pepsi
campaign, "You got the right one baby."
1991 "You got the Right one Baby" is modified to "You got the Right one Baby, Uh-
Huh!" The "Uh-Huh Girls" join Ray Charles as back-up singers and a campaign soon to
become the most popular advertising in America is on its way. Supermodel Cindy
Crawford stars in an award-winning commercial made to introduce Pepsi's updated logo
and package graphics.

1992 Celebrities join consumers, declaring that they "Got to Have It." The interim
campaign supplants "Choice of a New Generation" as work proceeds on new Pepsi
advertising for the '90s. Mountain Dew growth continues, supported by the antics of an
outrageous new Dew Crew whose claim to fame is that, except for the unique great taste
of Dew, they've "Been there, Done that, Tried that."
1993 "Be Young, Have fun, Drink Pepsi" advertising starring basketball superstar
Shaquille O'Neal is rated as best in U.S.

CEO Craig Weather up explaining the relationship between freshness and superior taste

Shipping Department
Shipping is a broad term in NBC which refers towards transfer of goods (raw material and
finished goods) from one place to another. Shipping department perform its functions as an
intermediary between production and sales. It ensures the quantity and availability of empties on
time at the time these are required similarly in case of filled stock. This maintenance of empties,
supply to plants, liquid stock and distribution has a strong impact on sales because of its
availability on time which depends upon the shipping department. So we can say that this
department is a complete chain of all the operations performed in the organization.
The shipping department is responsible for the following function performed by it…
Shipping is responsible for managing the empties. Shipping is responsible for receiving the liquid clearance from excise to dispatch it
further to Depots & distributors. Shipping is also responsible for maintaining proper stock of liquids and empties as they
appear in the liquid and empties stock register so as the stock appears in the registers, it should also be physically present in the depots.
Shipping is responsible for proper management of empties and liquid vehicles loading and off-loading i.e. time management is very important in this case.
Shipping also receives new empties of both RB and NRB and manages their storage and handling and their proper supply to production as they are required by the production for filling purpose.
Empties’ supply to plant
As it is discussed earlier the supply of empty bottles is the responsibility of the shipping so it
supply the empties to the production department to fill them as to they are needed and others are
maintained in the different godowns. Shipping department maintain the stock of empty bottles by
collecting them from the wholesalers, retailers. The godowns where they keep their empty stock
are…

Audit and Taxation Department
In NBC, audits take place annually. The audits are made according to the defined rules by Govt.
Records are maintained both manually and computerized. The revenue submission date to the
bank is 15th of each month. When the audit is conducted by the government, the company has to
present the invoices of purchase in order to get rebate on the foreign purchases. These items
come under no tax category. All the departments are being audited by the audit department. For
the taxation purpose the taxes are implemented on the basis of the purchase. If purchases are
made locally there will be a tax and if purchases are from the international market there will be
no taxes.17% sales tax is implemented on the domestic sales.
Sales tax and Excise Duty rates are…
Sales tax is 17%. Excise duty is 12% which the company pays to the government.
Type of taxesNBC Beverages has to pay two types of taxes.
Input Tax Output Tax
INPUT TAX
Input tax only claimed at the production related items such as sugar, concentrates and other
items. Such taxes are implemented on the imports too. But such imported items have to come
under the production process.

Purchase and Procurement department
As it is clear from its name, the purchase and procurement department deals with purchase of
raw material and other materials when they are required. Its main purpose is to purchase the raw
material at a lower cost with high quality. For instance, we can say that the purchase department
is the important tool which gets the cost efficiency. NBC doesn’t rely on one supplier because
this strategy can create the monopoly of that single supplier so the NBC use to have the different
and more than one supplier.
Purchase Process
When store informs the purchase department about the purchase of a particular item, the
purchase department gets information about the prices of desired items. At this level quotations
are required by the department from its different suppliers. On receiving these quotations the
selection of supplier is based on the low price and high quality. Another procedure is the
negotiating the prices with the supplier. In this case the prices are settled at the desired level.
After setting the prices, the order is placed to the supplier. When the goods are received their
physical verification is done and in case of any shortage or poor quality product the respective
supplier is informed. In this case the supplier has to bear the charges of shortages or low quality.
In case of events like 14th August, Eid, Festivals Purchase department had to manage the supply
at least 15 days before the occurrence of the event, because the production increases in these
days due to high demand in the market.
Suppliers
NBC has both local and international suppliers of glass and pet bottles who are approved by the
Pepsi Cola International, these are…

POST MIX DEPARTMENT
Our 1st day at post mix department we meet with the Assistant Manager Mr. Shafat and the sale
executive Mr. Imran. After the introduction whit these persons they give us brief introduction
about the Post Mix department and about there activates. We visited the contractor of NBC who
makes the Farms for machines. After that we visited the different customers of the Post mix with
Mr. Imran, and makes deals with them. We were assigned to prepare a detailed report about the
post mix department regarding its functions, operations and services.
The post mix department is responsible for installation, maintenance and filling of fountain fresh
(post mix) machine in five districts of Gujranwala franchise
Dispensing is today's "action package" carbonated soft drink in POST -MIX and PREMIX
forms, coupled with compact, high volume, refrigerated dispensing equipment, represent
convenience and increased profits for dealers and profit opportunities for the bottler. There has
been a little growth in the POST-MIX/PRE-MIX dispensing area in the Pakistani Beverage
Market until the 1994's. But now it has grown a lot due to the following factors.
Pressure on retailers to improve selling methods and techniques.
Rapid increases in the volume of soft drink consumption in outlets with storage
remaining limited.
THE IMPORTANCE OF DISPENSING MARKET
Dispensing market varies from country to in size and types of out let. The title on premise
identifies any out left where product can be purchased with or without food for consumption on
or near the premises.
University Of the Punjab, Gujranwala Campus Page 64
Internship Report On NBC
The On-Premise market is one of the most markets in a Bottlers franchise. Its importance in the
continued growth and success of the Bottlers business cannot be under estimated in its effects on:
Profitability Volume growth Consumer awareness Product Visibility Consumer sampling Chilled product sales Impact on take home sales
POST MIX MACHINE
Post Mix machine is U.S. made and it has following main components.
Water Tank Congesture Cooling system Wolves Syrup tank(s) CO2 tank
Post Mix Department installs machine at any suitable place with the cash security of Rs,
30,000. Along with Post Mix machine, they also provide counter, water tank, water filter(s),
disposable glasses, disposable plates, machine maintenance and service. The cooling system is
almost like refrigerator or fridge cooling system. However gas cylinders are attached to the
machine for gas mixing. Syrup and water mix-up happens in wolves’ at-4 C .So the customer
gets fresh, cool product in no time. The water used in fountain fresh machines is acquired from
locally available source; it is stored in water tank and filtered once, twice or thrice depending on
the purity of the water. With one syrup tank of PEPSI, TEAM and 7'up, equivalent of 19 cases
standard bottle is obtained, while syrup cylinder of MIRINDA has the capacity of providing
equivalent of 16 cases standard product.
Until now total 122 has been installed in different districts and approx. 114 are working while
others needs repair. There is further demand of about 100 machines
POST-MIX SYSTEM
University Of the Punjab, Gujranwala Campus Page 65
Internship Report On NBC
The syrup mixed with water and CO2 at the customer account. POST-MIX containers can be
bifurcated in Transfer Tank.
The Post Mix system differs slightly in principle from the PRE-mix system. The difference is
related to the way the finished beverage is produced for sale to the consumer. The bottle fill the
beverage syrup into stainless steel tanks at production plant and transport the tanks to retail
outlets. The operation of POST -MIX system is as follows.
Compressed CO2 Gas flows from the storage cylinder through gas a pressure regulator where it
is reduced to the working pressure of the carbonator, then through a pressure relief valve and
back flow check valve to a juncture where the CO2 line gets divided. One segment going to
secondary regulators and the other to carbonators and the other to carbonator tanks.
The flow of CO2 from the secondary regulators goes to the syrup containers. Syrup flows from
the containers to the refrigeration unit and then to the dispensing valve. The CO2 gas directed to
the carbonator assembly enter a small capacity tank which contains potable water automatically
controlled to a predetermined level in addition to the tank. Its safety valve, the carbonator
assembly includes a motor driven water pump to force the potable water into the tank against the
CO2 pressure. The carbonated water from the carbonator.
Connect dispenser to a separate outlet. Turn power switch ON. Thoroughly flush all incoming
product lines before connecting them to the dispenser. Turn on the water supply and allow the
carbonator to fill completely.
Lift relief valve ring until water flows from relief valve openings. Reliefs ring and allow closing.
Turn on CO2 gas and adjust regulator to 75 psi.
University Of the Punjab, Gujranwala Campus Page 66
Internship Report On NBC
Activate a valve until pump starts. Close valve and allow pump to cycle. Dispense drinks from
each valve to purge and remaining sanitizer from the syrup lines and establish quality
carbonation in the carbonator.
TRANSFER TANKS
The most common packaging from for both PRE-MIX and Post Mix product is the
Stainless Steel Tank. This tank comes as either a single entry or double entry system. Each has
specific advantages and disadvantages. Both PRE-MIX and Post Mix product can be stored in
either single or double entry system
DOUBLE ENTRY TANKS
Double entry tanks have separate gas inlet and liquid outlet plugs. The standard double entry
tank size can hold 18 Liters of product. However the double entry tanks are also available in
other sizes.
SINGLE ENTRY TANK
The single entry tank is generally made of stainless steel and can be obtained in different
sizes. This tank is not commonly used for dispensing soft drinks. To date its use has been within
the brewing industry.
TANK AND CYLINDER REQUIREMENT
One question the reader will need to ask is the ratio between tanks and cylinders per units
purchased. The answer is dependent on these factors:
The length of distribution chains. The sales volume per outlet. The product Mix ( some flavors move faster than others ) Frequency of calls. Control of stock levels.
University Of the Punjab, Gujranwala Campus Page 67
Internship Report On NBC
EXAMPLE OF POST MIX TANK REQUIREMENT
One product tank contains the equivalent of 19 standard cases of 250 ml finished product,
therefore an outlet selling 40 case per week would require the following minimum stock to cover
a basic four flavor installation.
TANKS
Outlet Machine Stock 4 Tanks

Outlet Selection
Dispensing equipment is very expensive and therefore every care must be taken to ensure that
the outlet have proper annual yield. As with any installation of Post-Mix equipment, it is
important to first undertake a site survey. Until this is done it is not possible to ascertain the
equipment required. The points that need to be checked are…
1. Volume through put.
University Of the Punjab, Gujranwala Campus Page 69
Internship Report On NBC
2. Type of unit required & space for product tanks3. Construction, alteration and other details.4. Water and electrical requirements.5. General Details and deliveries.6. Proper space for air circulation.7. Dealer and staff are trained or not.
The machine is normally installed in parks, shopping centers, college canteens, ice-cream
parlors, busy roads, burger comers etc. The department is having five vehicles for visits of each
machine after every two days. Different routes are planned in various areas. With every
route/vehicle, there is a technician, driver and helper. The purpose of the route is to replace
empty syrup tank, cleaning and maintenance work of machine and resolve any complaint.
Special routes are arranged in case of urgent complaint or immediate syrup tank requirement.
The technician also performs the job of salesman. Cylinders are delivered on cash and it is
responsibility of technician to collect cash and later submit it at cash office. During the route,
they have to arrange their meal for which no allowance is given. Technician s get a commission
of Rs. 2.50 per cylinder sale. Currently sales
Officer is in charge of the post mix department and performs his job as well.
Various forms/documents/reports used in the department are:
Post Mix installation/removal orders Duty slip Overtime register Main store requisition Daily complaint register Daily technician report Part/outlet wise sales report Requisition for publicity Daily post mix report Individual technician files Party wise profiles
Interaction with others Departments Post mix has interaction with following departments

Problems
There is job dissatisfaction and very low motivation on the staff due to:
Low salary Daily allowance has been eliminated Overtime is rewarded in terms of holidays not in monetary terms. According to
technicians, they normally do not get a chance of making allowed vacations due to workload so the extra holidays are of no use for them.
Higher positions are filled from outside, people within the department should be promoted to the chief technician and sales supervisor level.
Technicians perform the responsibility of salesman for which they get just Rs. 2.50 per cylinder that is very low.
Computer is present in the S.O. office but no one in the department is really qualified to get use of it.
Sales targets are set without the consent of staff. Post Mix staff has no knowledge of ISO.
During the route riding, I observed following points
The key issue is proper and compatible combination of technician, helper and driver. These people should work as a team in the field and must possess the characteristics that make a team successful i.e. technical competence, trust ----.
The group should move with full preparation i.e. all required slips, necessary tools, tested equipment.
The routes must leave at least till 0:30 A.M. The vehicles must be fit and available on time. It is in their best interest and makes their
job safe, convenient and speedy. The new machines are not available for installation. Used machines and counters make
shopkeepers unhappy. The behavior of the staff with shopkeepers is generally good. The outlet owners have the
Post Mix office number complaints and the response is efficient.SUGGESTIONS
University Of the Punjab, Gujranwala Campus Page 71
Internship Report On NBC
Fountain fresh department is an area which requires much more attention. Though currently it is
working with its capacity and covering five districts with a smart staff. The organization should
take it as a SBU and concentrate on it because of
High expected growth PEPSI has currently no competition in this area No problem of empty It does not requires a huge plant setup and works with simple setup and very low
overhead No chance of fake bottle
So the sales can be increased dramatically by better management and boosting up Post Mix department.

Analysis of Our Survey
As it is discussed earlier that the in sales department I was assigned a market survey regarding
advertisement, demand market share among beverages. For the attainment of this purpose we
developed 2 different questionnaires to collect the opinions of the retailers and consumer. Those
questionnaires are pasted in this report. Our sample size was 100. We went to the individual
retailers and consumer to get the particular information.
After getting the filled questionnaires I came to know that the demand of Coke in young
generation is high with respect to Pepsi because of its taste and quality while in rural area the
Pepsi is more popular than coke. From retailers view point at the present times the Pepsi have the
high popularity and demand but they consider that in the near future the coke will become the
market leader in beverage industry because of change in preference of people day by day.
Now regarding advertisement the Pepsi’s advertisement is high in comparison with coke. Pepsi
Co.’s target is to hit the common man while coke is highly status conscious as well consumer
like the advertisement of Pepsi because of it day to day innovative adds as we can see the add of
Mountain Dew.
As we consider the juices, recently Pepsi Co. introduced its juice “Slice” which has a strong
impact on other juices market. It snatched the share of Shezan (old brand) as well. Slice has its
low availability but high demand. NBC considering this gap among demand and supply seriously
and planning to minimize it in the near future.
The coke has also introduced its juice names “Splash” to compete in market but badly failed. It
also introduced its another soft drink names 3G against Mountain Dew but it is still not in the
position to attract the market as compare to Mountain Dew.

TREND ANALYSIS
In trend analysis we done two types of analysis, these are
1. Horizontal Analysis
It is conducted by setting consecutive balance sheet, income statement side-by-side and
reviewing changes in individual categories on a year-to-year or multiyear basis.
A comparison of statements over several years reveals direction, speed and extent of a trend(s).
The horizontal financial statements analysis is done by restating amount of each item or group
of items as a percentage.
2. Vertical Analysis
Like horizontal analysis this can also done for balance sheet and income statement. Here we
assign 100% value to any key item of balance sheet or income statement and then see portion of
other items in this percentage.

SWOT Analysis
SWOT analysis means the analysis of internal and external environment.
Internal environment refers towards the strengths and weaknesses of an organization while
external environment refers towards the opportunities and threats. We conducted the SWOT
analysis of NBC which is given below…
Strengths
Good strategy adoption
The strategies related production and supply of their product are really admirable
and these strategies play a vital role in capturing the market share.
Customer Positioning
Pepsi Co. creates its good reputation in the market as compare to other brands and
consumers positioning is high.
Experienced Staff
Pepsi Co. has well experienced, competent and committed staff in marketing
department with high marketing skills and because of this advantage they are
grasping the high market share.
Focus on Differentiation
Differentiation is a tool which plays a vital role for success in the competition and
NBC always prefer to be different from its competitors.
Revenue Growth
Their domestic organization achieved revenue growth from a healthy pricing
environment, strong field execution, and effective innovation as their diet, water
and flavor portfolios partially compensate a continued shift away from their Pepsi
trademark.
Revenue growth and cost management offset a relatively more volatile raw
material cost environment. The profitability of their international business

Internship Report On NBC
continued to improve and it has become a more significant contributor to their
performance.
Sponsorship
To increase its popularity and awareness among people the Pepsi sponsors cricket
matches which plays a vital role in its promotions.
Strong Distributors

requirement of them is financially strong people, devoted with product, loyal with
company and involve in their business.
Weaknesses
No Proper InfrastructureThere is no proper structure within the organization like work space problems etc
due to which employees got exhausted.
Low Wage Rate
Low wages for the employees and the other staff with respect to their main
competitor Coke.
Conflict Management

management is not taking any serious actions about it.
Fewer Incentives
NBC offer fewer incentives with respect to the Coke to their retailers and
distributors.
High Rate of Discrepancy

maintenance of level of liquid in filling etc.

Opportunities
Innovation or Cost Reduction EdgePepsi Co. has the opportunity of getting more satisfaction of the customer by
offering the lower cost products in comparison with its competitors or by
providing the high quality, innovative products to its customer as well as the by
the quick responsiveness.
Strategic Planning for Customer Satisfaction
Pepsi Cola strives to create value for their consumers, customers, bottlers and the
community. They believe their success depends on their ability to satisfy their
beverage consumption demands and their ability to add value for their customers.
Nevertheless, attaining efficiency, quality, innovation, and responsiveness to
customers requires a strategic plan.
Opportunity of Penetration
Pepsi Co.’s brands are moving in more than 200 countries. Pepsi Co. has the
opportunity to expand its products in the countries where it is not performing its
functions as well as by providing the high quality product to the existing customer
to retain them.
Opportunity to Attract By Incentives
As Pepsi is a well known brand in all over the Pakistan so it also has the
opportunity to create its value and to attract the customer by offering extra
incentives to the retailers and specially consumers.

Threats
Existing Competitor’s ManagementPepsi Co. has the threat of its competitor which is putting its best to get the
maximum customer satisfaction and to maximize its profits by its active and keen
management.
New Entrance
It is also facing the threats of newly introduced beverages in the market such as
Gourmet, Amrat and Fizz etc. They are capturing market share up to their best
which is not in the favor of Pepsi Co.

Suggestions
Management is not participative because of the group think, their own priorities and
politics within the NBC. The company should use the participative management system
and eliminate the other factors by having a strong and proper check in order to increase
the job satisfaction level of employees.
Company management has to put its all efforts to change the prevailing culture of the Co.
to avoid the mentioned problems such as group think, favoritism, politics etc.
Employees’ turnover rate is very high in the organization. Management should take
effective actions to reduce it.
Latest reorganizing efforts are necessary to make it cost effective also to meet the current
needs of modern environment.
To attract the customer in the future, NBC have to make extensive efforts by offering
extra incentives to retailers and consumers.
The infrastructure of the company is another thing which needs to be improved which
should provide a relaxed working environment to the labor and other staff.
The procedure of taking services from the company must be made easier and straight
forward not involving long difficult procedure for simple tasks.

Conclusion
After going through the whole period of internship as an internee I’ve observed so many
professional activities and learnt as well. This report is basically is a brief explanation of the
activities I’ve observed and learnt from the NBC. NBC is a professional organization with very
cooperative staff which really helps the internees and newly entered employees to make them
aware about the organization. As I mentioned earlier in this report about department where I’ve
done my internship and staff with whose kind cooperation I’ve seen the practical implementation
of the bookish knowledge. I also learn that how to perform the duties in the meaningful ways by
accomplishing my assignments given by the concerning departments heads and their executives.
They were also there to guide me in the ambiguities.
Market and Research Department where I spent one week is a memorable time where Ass.
Manager Marketing Services Mr. Mahmood Ahmed really gave us a tough time about preparing
an analysis based presentation regarding competition among Pepsi, Coke and other soft drink
brands.
Similarly in the Production Dept. we learnt that how the raw material including water, syrup and
sugar are mixed. We also assigned an assignment about calculating the time of an empty from
shipping department to the production until it is not ready to use by the consumer (filling time).
And then in the Post Mix and Sales & Marketing departments assigned us the preparation of
reports about these departments after giving us the relevant information about these. These
reports are dispatched in this report.
Overall I am very satisfied with my internship in Pepsi because now I really have some
knowledge about the practical field and experience as well.
