 // Tanner Grim Coca-Cola Corporation // A.) Company historical perspective:  Established as the J.S Pemberton medicine company, that was a co-partnership between Dr.John smiths Pemberton and Ed Holland. The company when it was formed was to sell three main products: Pemberton’s French Wine Cola, later know as coca cola, Pemberton’s Indian Queen Hair Dye, and Pemberton’s Globe Flower Cough Syrup. Then in 1884 the company became a stock company and jumped around in owner ship as Pemberton and Holland stayed on as superintendants of the company. Their flagship product that we know today was introduced in 1886 and was invented by co founder John Stith Pemberton. The coca-cola formula and brand was bought by Asa Candler who incorporated the Coca Cola company in 1892. The new products growing popularity as a pharmaceutical beverage led to demand and the demand led to the cola beverage to move out of the pharmacies and into the hands of consumers everywhere, thus the idea of a portable bottle was introduced. The result was the iconic image of the classic coca cola specially contoured bottle. Moving into the new century since the creation of the coca cola syrup mother company and the franchise bottling company, the name coca cola is known all around the world through its more than four hundred brands.
