leaders of cola companies such as : Pepsi &

leadership since several years in the
International market.

9. Top 10 players in soft drinks by
value share
 Red Bull GmbH however with its relatively
premium but small serving size Red Bull brand
ranks seventh in 2012. The company’s narrow
focus in soft drinks, being almost exclusively based
on energy drinks, continues to keep the company
out of the top five in soft drinks.
 TCCC and PepsiCo capture a stronger share in
value than in volume terms chiefly due to their
products, particularly carbonates, being priced
higher than local brands and private label,
benefiting from strong brand equity and extensive
distribution networks

18. STRENGTH WEAKNESSS
 CATEGORY LEADER :
Red Bull has established a strong, consistent
brand image (an independent, edgy brand)
globally. Red Bull is synonymous with energy
drinks in many countries.
 GLOBAL PRESSENCE :
Red Bull has a broad geographic presence,
which should ensure positive long-term
growth even if certain markets reach
maturity.
 MARKETTING STRATEGY:
The promotional activities engaged by Red
Bull throughout extreme sports sponsorships
have helped the brand to build a strong
identity and consumer base
 CATEGORY LIMITATIONS :
Red Bull has a limited product portfolio
compared to the rising number of rivals with
a plethora of flavour variants and categories.
 PRICING:
Red Bull products are above the energy
drinks average price,consumers tend to think
twice at the time of purchase.
 CONTROVERSIAL :
The relatively high caffeine content of Red
Bull makes the brand highly vulnerable to
regulatory control
SWOT ANALYSIS

19. OPPORTUNITIES THREATS
 EMERGING MARKETS:
Emerging markets represent newer geographies for
Red Bull’s expansion. Accelerating the marketing
and sponsorships in these markets is a wise move.
 NEW PRODUCTS:
Red Bull is building a new production facility in
Brazil which is likely to make its retail price more
competitive than imported product prices. Building
a site in Asia should also be considered.
 PRODUCT LINE EXTENSION:
Offering new flavours and formats will help Red
Bull to improve its market shares.
 COMPETITION:
Monster represents the biggest threat to
Red Bull as it contains natural
ingredients, which seem more desirable
than Red Bull for some consumers.
 NEGATIVE PUBLICITY:
Media reports that ,Red Bull is harmful
for health,recent reports claim that Red
Bull drinks comprises of bull
semen,though all this is rumour,but it
influence company’s image.

but the basics are always there: the real
benefit.”

Director
