Hoover's coverage by Alexandra Biesada

Overview

Coke is it -- it being the world's #1 nonalcoholic beverage company. The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC) owns four of the top five soft-drink brands (Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, Fanta, and Sprite). Its other brands include Minute Maid, Powerade, and Dasani water. In North America it sells Groupe Danone's Evian; it also sells brands from rival Dr Pepper Snapple Group (Crush, Dr Pepper, and Schweppes) outside Australia, Europe, and North America. The firm makes or licenses more than 3,500 drinks for sale in 200-plus countries. In late 2010 TCCC bought out its leading bottler, Coca-Cola Enterprises (CCE), and renamed it Coca-Cola Refreshments USA. Atlanta pharmacist John Pemberton invented Coke in 1886.
