THE ECONOMICS OF OWNING COCA-COLA

You bought Coca-Cola for roughly $350 billion—but the company whose name appears on the bottle often doesn’t own the factory, truck, or refrigerator that puts it in your hand. This business documentary explains how Coca-Cola really makes money through concentrate and syrup, bottling partners, global distribution, pricing power, advertising, brand recognition, and one of the strongest business models ever created. Coca-Cola doesn’t just sell a drink. It creates demand before the customer even becomes thirsty—and turns memories, convenience, and cold refrigerators into billions of dollars. What does Coca-Cola remind you of first: a family dinner, a road trip, a football game, or a corner store? And was your house loyal to Coke or Pepsi?
