The Coca Cola Company in the UK: The Coca Cola Company first entered the markets of the United Kingdom in the 1900’s when the son of the President of the Company, Charles H. Candler, visited London with a jug of Coca Cola syrup. Soon after, an order of five gallon of Coca Cola was placed and was initially served via soda fountains. The official business of the Company begun years later, although, the first Coca Cola bottling plan in Europe was installed in France in 1919 and not in the UK (Mooney, 2008). The sales of Coca Cola in the UK begun in the early 1920’s and it appeared at the outlets across London, including London Coliseum and Selfridges. Eventually the Company gained access into the markets of the UK and expanded itself via various acquisitions and purchases. Coca-Cola European Partners plc (“CCEP”) has the bottling and distribution operations in Britain (The Coca Cola Company, 2018).
