People all around the world enjoy drinking Coca-Cola. It is
popular both in America and
the world. Its story starts in the USA more than 100 years ago but its recipe was
different from today. The name of Coca-Cola was the idea of Frank Robinson, the book-
keeper of Dr. Pemberton. In fact, Frank Robinson created the first famous
Coca-Cola
logo. In its first year, Coke (a nickname for Coca-Cola) was not a success. In 1887, Asa
Candler bought the recipe from John Pemberton. With a lot of advertising and a good
business plan Coca-Cola became one of the most popular drinks. In 1892, a second
Coca-Cola company appeared and this is the Coca-Cola Company that still stands
today.
In fact, the first bottles of Coca-Cola appeared in 1894, and the first cans of Coca-Cola
in 1955. There were a lot of advertisements in many newspapers and magazines, on
the posters and on many billboards on the roads. In addition, Coca-Cola also used
radio. Many people think that Coca-Cola gave the picture
of Santa Clause as an old
man in a red suit with a white beard. Today, the Coca-Cola Company is still one of the
largest advertisers in the world. It is not only advertising in newspapers, radio,
television, film and on the Internet, but also advertises sports and other events. During
the 1
970’s one of the radio programme produced a hit song “I like to teach the world to
sing”.
