Coca-Cola was created by Dr. John Stith Pemberton, a pharmacist in Atlanta, Georgia. It went on sale in a drugstore for five cents a glass as a soda fountain drink on May 8, 1886. Today, the Coca-Cola Company is the largest beverage company in the world. It has grown to become the world's most recognized brand, with more than 3,500 products sold in 200 countries. Coca-Cola is ranked in the top 60 Fortune 500 Companies, top 210 Fortune Global 500 Companies, top 5 of the Fortune World's Most Admired Companies, and its CEO Muhtar Kent is ranked in the Fortune top 10 Businessperson of the Year.

Coke was one of the first U.S. companies to go interna-tional. The company began building its global network in the 1920s. One of the first countries the company expanded to was China, opening its first bottling plants in Tianjin and Shanghai in 1927. In recent years, it has spent more than 52 billion expanding operations in China. In the late 2000s, the Coca-Cola Company was looking for new ways to expand in China. Coca-Cola announced a bid for Hmjiyuan, one of China's top local brands and the country's largest maker of 100-percent' fruit juice. The deal would have been the largest for the Coca-Cola Company in Asia and the second-largest acquisition overall for the company in its history. However, the Chinese government found Coca-Cola's bid to be in violation of the country's new antimonop¬oly law and blocked the company's acquisition bid. Coke still wants to grow in China, so what should it do at this point?
