A history of Coca-Cola

Coca-Cola is one of the best soda in the world and is being enjoyed by many everyday. It all began in 1886 when a pharmcist John Pemberton out of curiosity mixed up a fragrant caramel-colored liquid and mixed it with carbonated water and was sampled by customers. Pemberton's book-keeper Frank Robertson named the mixture Coca-Cola. This is where the name Coca-Cola came about.

After the death of Pemberton in 1888, an Atlanta businessman Asa Griggs Candler bought the business for under $3000. From 1886 to 1894, the business grew and became very successful. The company decided that the product should be bottled in a very distinctive bottle which would be the company's signature bottle.

  
In 1928, Coca-Cola was introduced to the olympic games for the first time. Coca-Cola isn't just a big success but also a big part of people's lives. From the mid 1940's until 1960, the number of countries which bottled this product were nearly doubled. After 70 years of success, the company decided to expand with new flavors including Fanta, Sprite, TAB and Fresca. 

By 1997 the company sold about 1 billion servings of its products everyday. To this day Coca-Cola has sold over 1.5 billion servings each day.

In conclusion, Coca-Cola company has met its mission because the world is refreshed, happy and has made a difference in people's life.
