16
Institute of Science and Management Pundag, Ranchi (Jharkhand)
S.M.V. Beverages (Jamshedpur) gets water from Sitampur Dam. This water being collected in huge tanks undergoes two different treatments resulting in soft water and treated water. Before ensuring production, this raw water is being treated in the water treatment plant. Soft water the municipal is passed through sand filter, carbon purified and salt charged softeners 9 to remove hardness). The water obtained after this treatment is called soft water. This soft water being kept with 2-4 PPM c12 in storage tank is used for bottle washing and the water being stored with c-12 goes to the boiler.
Treated Water:
The municipal water is at first treated with Ferrous sulphate (FeSo4 ), Lime (CaOH) and Chlorine. This process involved is called coagulation and it takes place in the reaction tank. From reaction tank the water moves on to the intermediate tank to be stored in the storage tank. From there it passes through the sand filter, carbon purifier, micro purifier and ultra violet light. Water obtained after this much treatment is called treated water and is used preparation of drink.
Bottle Washing:
Empty bottles coming back from market needs to be washed before filling. Washing of bottles is completely automatic process. This takes place in a machine having three chambers. Bottles are put on the conveyor and as they enter the machine they undergo three successive treatments. At first they are treated wath 4% caustic soda at 100-150 oF. In the next chamber they are treated with 2% caustic soda at 120 F and in the third chamber they are treated with soft water. The cleaned bottles are sent to inspection where the upper and lower portions of the watching successively against strong light.
Syrup Preparation:
Syrup room is suited in the first floor. Here syrup is prepared from filter water, sugar and the concentration. The room is well equipped with several tanks and filter press. The first one is Heating Tank in which syrup is actually prepared. Calculated amount of syrup along with concentrate and water are being heated up to 85 oC. Thus a saturated solution is being prepared. Next it is sent through a machine called Filter Press syrup is filtered here.

5. INTRODUCTION TO PEPSI
History:
19
Institute of Science and Management Pundag, Ranchi (Jharkhand)
Caleb D. Bradham was born in Chinquatin, North Carolina in 1866 to a well to do family.
Caleb was a very well liked young man who was not only very smart but very popular as well. Caleb wantedto become a doctor and after graduating the university of North Carolina he entered medical school at the university of Maryland, Calebs father failed in his business. Caleb had to quit school and take a job, so he moved to New Bern, North Carolina and took a job in a teaching school. Sometimes in the 1890s Caleb created one such drink that become quite popular at the Bradham Pharmacy and the patrons started calling it Brads Drink in Calebs honor. However, Caleb prefferd another name for this drink and he decided to called it Pepsi-cola. There has been some dispute as to whether or not the original Pepsi-cola actually contains pepsin as an ingredient. The term Pepsi in its name is surely an indicator. One of Pepsi-colas earliest known advertisement is found in the Feb 25th ,1903 New Bern daily journal and one of its claims was that it Aids Digestion a popular claim for items containing pepsin. Lastly another news paper and produced in 1908 flat out said PEPSI-Colais an absolutely pure combination of pepsin- that what your stomach needs these days- acid phosphate and the juice of fresh fruits. In 1903 Caleb filed for a trade mark for Pepsi-Cola with the state of north Carolina and the document indicate that Pepsi_cola had been in continual use since August 8, 1898. However in 1906 Caleb had to register Pepsi-Cola a second time in the U.S. patent office believed these two name were too similar and since Pep-Kola had been trade mrked on the Feb. 15,1899, Pepsi-Cola had to come up with a new trade mark. Instead of changing the name of his product, Caleb bought the right to the Pep-Kola trade mark and re-applied for his trade mark in 1906. On these papers he gave the date Feb. 15,1896 as the earliest date Pepsi-Cola or names thus derived were used by him. However, August 28, 1898 is the date most people set as the date that Pepsi-Cola came into existing. In any event, by 1902,Caleb had taken on an assistant named R.F.Buttler but better known as Uncle Dick and while uncle Dick was put in charge of running the pharmacy, Caleb threw all his energy into Pepsi-Cola. In his first three months Caleb sold 2008gallons of Pepsi-Cola syrup. By the end of his first year ha had sold 7968 gallons of syrup. By 1904 he was selling 19,848 gallons a year and this is also the same year he started bottling Pepsi-Cola. A year later he also began selling Pepsi Cola bottling franchises and than he started expanding rapidly. By 1910 he had 280 bottling franchises and covered at least 24 states. By 1907 he was selling over 100,000 gallons of syrup a year and in1915 Pepsi-Cola corporation had assets of over $1,000,000. During world war I sugar prices to fluctuate wildly and that was assuming one could get their hands on a supply of sugar at all. Eventually the government implemented price controls to stabilize the cost of sugar but even that didnt help with the erratic supply side of the sugar market. It was believed that once the war ended and the price controls were lifted sugar quickly jumped in price. To make matters worse it appeared that the cost of sugar was going to keep going up. Caleb and many other soft drinks manufactures decided to buy huge amount of sugar and thus protect themselves from even higher sugar prices. Bad decision sugar prices peaked at

26? Per pound. During the previous couple of years Pepsi-Cola had been operating at a loss because of fluctuating sugar prices and supplies, but now they faced a loss so large it was unlikely they would be able to recover. By March 2, 1923 The Pepsi-Cola corporation was bankrupt and two years later the The Pepsi-Cola corporation was allowed to die for non payment of taxes. In 1934 at the age of 67 Caleb Bradham did not even able to hold onto his original drug store. In 1923, when Pepsi-Cola went bankrupt its creditors had formed a corporation nmed Craven Holding corporation. Once the bankruptcy took place this new corporation paid $ 30,0000 for all of The Pepsi-Cola corporation assets including the trade mark to Pepi-Cola. This was a pretty common practice for creditors as it made handling the bankruptcy easier. In july of 1923 a man named Roy megargel formed the Pepsi-Cola corporation in virgina and purchased all of the assets of PepsiCola from the craven Holding corporation for $ 35,000. Loft owned and directly operated about 200 candy stores and the most of these had soda fountains. In 1931 these lofty candy stores had sold over 30,000 gallons of Coca-cola and guth believed that since this was wholesale quantity he warranted a jobbers (middleman) discount. Coca-cola disagreed with gruth and repeatedly turned down guths discount request. Now the Guth was ticked and Guth wasnt the kind of guy you wanted to get mad. Guth didnt just switch from buying coca-cola to buying a competitors product instead he bought Pepsi-Cola and become coca colas worst nightmare. Megargel had contacted Guth and told him of the troubles he was having with Pepsi-Cola. Guth then made an agreement with Megargel and this is how it worked. Guth borrowed money from Loft Inc. ( he was short of case since his money was tied up in loft stock) and gave it to Megargel to buy Pepsi-Cola at the bankruptcy auction. Guth ten formed the Pepsi-Cola company, a Delaware corporation with 300,000 shares of stock. After Megargel purchased Pepsi-Cola at the auction for $ 10,500. Megargel then owned 100,000 shares of the new company, Guth owned 100,000 shares and 100,000 shares would be kept by the new Pepsi-Cola company to raise money in the future. Megargel was also promised a salary of $25,000 a year for six years and after the six were up a2?? Royality for each gallon of Pepsi-cola sold.

6. MARKETING STRATEGIES
24
Institute of Science and Management Pundag, Ranchi (Jharkhand)
Introduction:
Marketing needs a framework that begins and ends with the customer. Marketing tools by themselves do not achieve marketing objectives. There is an intermediate step between the deployment of marketing tools and achievement of marketing objectives. A marketing network consists of the company and its supporting stakeholders (customer, suppliers, distributors, retailers, ad-agencies and others). The operating principle is simple: build and effective network of relationship with key stakeholders, and profit will follow. A set of marketing tolls the firm uses to pursue its marketing objectives are called marketingmix. These tools can be classified into four groups which are called the four Ps of marketing.
MARKETING MIX
TARGET MARKET
PRODUCT
PRICE
PLACE
PROMOTION
However some academicians feels that the four Ps of marketing have become redundant and needs to be replaced by the four As or four Cs of marketing.

Soft drinks are a FMCG product which has a wide and scattered market. Thus in order to succeed companies needs to break down their marketing activities into sub parts to effectively meet the customer needs. THE ENTIRE MARKETING IN THES CASE IS DIVIDED INTO THREE PARTS: a) Route structure, b) Home marketing, c) At work marketing

SAMPLING TECHNIQUES:
Sample is a very useful term used knowingly or unknowingly by many. A common man used it for making personal decision. It is used in a routine, for automobiles, temperature etc. however; sampling is extensively used in marketing research. There are two type of sampling methods: 1. Probability methods 2. Non probability methods Probability method includes:
a) Convenience sampling b) Quota control sampling c) Judgmental sampling
SAMPLE SIZE:
Sample is one part of population representing characteristics population. To select a sample is an easy job but to collect an appropriate samples size is tough job. Sample should be unbiased. Sample must be drawn under some conditions of population. As population of the survey was too large and it was almost difficult to reach every person personally. I have selected 200 respondents of Pepsi product through survey method.
UNIVERSAL/POPULATION: The term population or universe means the totally of all elements that are relevant to the scope of the problem under study. In this project my universe was RANCHI district in Jharkhand
