Abstract

We represent a Canadian firm specializing in marketing Cola beverages solely in Canada. We wish to extend our sales and therefore launch our products on the French market. For this, we will analyze the characteristics (threats and opportunities) of the French market using the hexagon sector.

The cola market is dominated by two major players that have a virtual monopoly of the market (Pepsi, Coca Cola).

[...] Nowadays the development of fair trade and organic products allows the arrival of new Cola beverages, but this market is still in its infancy. The act of engaging in this market is very risky because of the 'big names' of Cola. Bargaining power of customers and distribution Since we are new entrant in the French market, customers and distributors will have a strong bargaining power because we are not indispensable and their new product is not to please the customers.
