COCA COLA Factory to Home Process

First of all, this is not a blog post about making money. Coca-Cola is one of the most well-known brands, and cola is one of the most popular drinks in the world. Every day, more than 1.9 billion cups of Coca-Cola are sold in more than 200 countries around the world.
This is a big job from a logistics point of view. And, as a result, an interesting supply chain, even though this blog post doesn't give away the secret recipe. This is because the soft drink is already in syrup form when it gets to its partners' factories, where it is mixed with carbon dioxide and sugar. The name of the drink is the only small hint as to what it is made of. The name Coca-Cola comes from the coca leaves and cola beans that were used in the first recipe.
A global network of supply chain partners
Coca-Cola is a global company with local operations. This means that there are about 225 bottling partners around the world right now. The first step in the supply chain is getting the raw materials. In the case of Coca-Cola, these are things like sugar cane, fruit, and water. The most important ingredients, like water and sugar, are bought locally. The partners can decide only what kind of sugar to use. In Europe, most sugar comes from beets. In Asia, sugar comes from cane, and in the U.S., sugar comes from corn syrup.
One of the first steps in the process of making Coca-Cola is making the concentrate. The bottling plants then mix the concentrate with water, sugar, and carbon dioxide. At other plants, the concentrate itself is made. The secret recipe is said to be kept in a safe in Atlanta. The legend also says that no more than two people should know the exact recipe or have access to it.
After mixing, the bottlers wrap, market, and send the finished drinks to grocery stores, restaurants, movie theaters, and other places. So, the company places a lot of importance on managing its relationships with suppliers and keeping a close eye on them at all times.
New technologies help the supply chain work well.
The company wants to improve its supply chain management all the time. It plans to do this with the help of technology like warehouse automation. Diversifying the portfolio and making it more personal are also important goals that the company wants to reach by using new technologies.
Blockchain is a new technology that is being used in the Coca-Cola supply chain right now. At the moment, there are still a lot of middlemen in the way partners talk to each other and work together. This slows things down and makes them more expensive. As part of a partnership with the technology company SAP, Coca-Cola wants to use blockchain technology to improve how it works with its partners and the 160,000 orders it gets every day, make things more clear, and cut costs. Coca-Cola already has a way for the bottlers to talk to each other using IT. For example, if one partner has a bottleneck, it can buy the quantities from another partner. Coca-Cola hopes that blockchain will cut the time it takes to reconcile orders from 50 days to just a few days. A transparent, inter-organizational distributed ledger will let all of the bottlers on the network, which brings in over $21 billion a year, see what transactions are going on in real time.
Coca Cola makes bottles out of plastic trash found on beaches and in the ocean, which is another example of how the company uses new technology. About 300 sample bottles were made with 25% marine plastic that had been used before. The sample bottles were made to show how better recycling technologies could be used. These new ways of doing things make it possible to turn any kind of used plastic back into good plastic. During the process, the polymers that make up the plastic are broken down and any impurities are taken out. Then, the different parts (monomers) can be put back together to make a material that is just as good as new. This means that low-quality plastics that used to be burned or thrown away can now stay in the material cycle and be used again to package food. This adds more things to the cycle that can be recycled. This means that less new PET and, by extension, fossil materials are needed to make new packaging. This could mean big changes for the Coca Cola supply chain.
Some Final Thoughts
Coca-Cola has been a world player for a long time. So, the company is always working to improve and update its supply chain. Because the soft drink sells so well, the supply chain focuses on managing the companies that work with it. In this case, communication with the partners and distribution to the points of sale are very important.
Coca-Cola has always been and still is a very popular soda. Because of this, it is even more surprising that the company has kept its exact recipe and the steps of the Coca-Cola supply chain a secret for so long. Because the recipe is a secret, the supply chain is a bit mysterious, which is pretty cool.
Which supply chain do you know that is really cool?
