Lovely.

Who says American companies aren’t investing? They are. Billions, in fact. Only, they are just not investing here in the U.S.

Atlanta based Coca-Cola (KO) plans to invest $4 billion in China, the company’s CEO Muhtar Kent told reporters in Shanghai this week. It’s the company’s biggest planned investment in China since the 2009 investment of $2 billion. The investments will start next year and is part of the company’s China capex until 2014.

Coca-Cola Company?


The Coca-Cola Company is a public company that trades its shares on the New York stock exchange - so we are 'owned' by our thousands of shareholders and investors around the world.

Lesson for ya. Read. Evaluate. Post.

You keep missing out that vital second step.

Actually, except for the headline, she leaves out the first step too.

The cost of shipping something as heavy and voluminous as soda pop would make it impossible to sell at an affordable price.
Now...if they were producing Coke there and shipping it here...that would be another story.

Rum and Coke isn't bad either.......

Only when it's Myers Rum & Coke.

It will either invest there for local production or sell a share in the franchise to a local producer. Coca-Cola does this often in the world and when you travel and drink a Coke it doesn't really mean, that the Coke is produced by Coca-Cola company or the majority of the income by that sale is going to Coca-Cola company.

Example:
Coca-Cola company holds 20.1% of shares from Coca-Cola sales in this region.
The Chinese market on the other hand is 3 times as big as the market shown in the picture, and is therefore lucrative due to size of consumers.

It is understandable that Coca-Cola wants to create its own capacities to serve the Chinese market, and make the majority-$ out of it.
