CHAPTER-3
About Kinley
Kinley is a brand of still or carbonated water owned by The Coca-Cola Company and sold in
many large European and Asian countries. Its carbonated forms are used for mixers, and also
available in a variety of fruit flavors.
The Kinley brand is used by Coca-Cola for two types of drinks:
Company Details
Swot analysis
Kinley is brand of simple and carbonated water owned by the famous beverage maker Coca-
Cola Limited. The brand of packaged drinking water which was launched in the year 2000 is
a highly healthy and hygienic water that goes through a number of purification processes.
The brand is popular in many countries in Europe and Asia.
The brand which communicates trust and truth ensures that good quality and clean water is
made available to all parts of the world. With the growing scarcity of water and as the
number of people who travel across the globe grow the need for packaged water is also
assumed to increase steeply. Yet another risk that is fueling the demand for packaged water is
the increase in the incidence of water-borne diseases like cholera, typhoid, and jaundice
across the world.
Low Ethics of Coca-Cola: Coca-Cola has been a part of numerous scandals which
involve aspects like harmful ingredients in their aerated drinks, pollution of water
bodies in and around their factories due to poor waste disposal and management
mechanisms. These scandals affect the branding of Kinley.
Low brand loyalty: The packaged drinking water industry is highly competitive
with Bisleri from Parle, Kinley from CocaCola and Aquafina from Pepsico.
The product being water there is not much of scope for brand loyalty and the only
factor that fuels choice is ease of availability.This becomes a weakness for all players
in the domain.
No or poor differentiation: The packaged drinking water industry players suffer from
no or poor differentiation and thus customers do not really find a difference between
the various players. The company has to find an emotional differentiator to ensure that
customers find a solid difference.
Regulatory Framework: The new regulatory framework of India mandates that
packaged drinking water follow certain specific quality norms in not just the
manufacturing process but also the packaging which results in additional costs.
Competition: Some of the major competitors of Kinley are Bisleri from Parle, Pure
Life fro Nestle and Aquafina from Pepsico

Recent acquisitions
In an effort to spur its growth in the non-alcoholic beverages market, Coca-Cola India Ltd,
which posted a turnover of Rs 2,900 crore in 1999, is in the process of arming its arsenal with
a wide range of products for the Indian consumer.
The company also plans to aggressively pursue a region-specific approach with respect to its
product offerings. Leveraging a 100-brands-plus global portfolio, the beverage giant is likely
to pick-and-choose the components of its portfolio based on seasonality and the peculiarities
of the local markets.
Among the new products that Coca-Cola plans to introduce in India are flavoured milk, ice
tea, ready-to-serve coffee and fruit juices. The company is also toying with the idea of
launching flavoured health water, which, it claims, has been a runaway success in other Asian
markets. These initiatives will be finalized over the next five months.
Simultaneously, signaling its desire to move away from a Coke-centric approach, Coca-Cola
has also decided to expand its marketing focus to build other acquired brands. It is also
exploring the possibilities of widening its existing portfolio through strategic acquisitions.
Success in the ‘regional route' approach has prompted Coca-Cola India to stick to the
formula. Apparently, in brand terms, Coke is ahead in Delhi, Thums Up is in full throttle in
Mumbai and Andhra Pradesh, while Fanta is leading the pack in Tamil Nadu.
Packaged drinking water is one segment that Coca-Cola India is banking on heavily. Not
surprising, considering that the packaged water market has an estimated growth of 100 per
cent. And although this market is still nascent in India, global biggies such as Aquafina
(Pepsi), Perrier (Nestle) and Evian (Danone) have pitched tent with a vengeance. And, of
course, there are the home-grown brands, Bisleri and Bailley.
Eager not to be left behind, Coca-Cola is launching its drinking water brand, Kinley, in
Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. The national launch has been slated for end
2000. Priced at Rs 12 for a 1-litre PET bottle (in Tamil Nadu, the retail price is Rs 10 a
bottle), Kinley is being bottled at Coca-Cola's greenfield manufacturing plant at Bidadi, near
Bangalore.
According to company sources, great pains have been taken to ensure the purity of the water.
A special imported tamper-proof closure - which, unlike break-away caps, is impossible to
re-seal - is one of the USPs of Kinley. The company claims that the brand also has the
certification of the Federation of Family Physicians Association of India (FFPAI).
