Pepsi and Coca-cola

History
Pepsi
Pepsi was first introduced as "Brad's Drink" in New Bern, North Carolina, in 1883 by
Caleb Bradham, who made it at his pharmacy where the drink was sold. It was later
named Pepsi Cola, possibly due to the digestive enzyme pepsin and kola nuts used in the
recipe. Bradham sought to create a fountain drink that was delicious and would aid in
digestion and boost energy.

In 1903, Bradham moved the bottling of Pepsi-Cola from his drugstore to a rented
warehouse. That year, Bradham sold 7,968 gallons of syrup. The next year, Pepsi was
sold in six-ounce bottles, and sales increased to 19,848 gallons. In 1909, automobile race
pioneer Barney Oldfield was the first celebrity to endorse Pepsi-Cola, describing it as "A
bully drink...refreshing, invigorating, a fine bracer before a race." The advertising theme
"Delicious and Healthful" was then used over the next two decades. In 1926, Pepsi
received its first logo redesign since the original design of 1905. In 1929, the logo was
changed again.

In 1931, at the depth of the Great Depression, the Pepsi-Cola Company entered
bankruptcy - in large part due to financial losses incurred by speculating on wildly
fluctuating sugar prices as a result of World War I. Assets were sold and Roy C.
Megargel bought the Pepsi trademark. Eight years later, the company went bankrupt
again. Pepsi's assets were then purchased by Charles Guth, the President of Loft Inc. Loft
was a candy manufacturer with retail stores that contained soda fountains. He sought to
replace Coca-Cola at his stores' fountains after Coke refused to give him a discount on
syrup. Guth then had Loft's chemists reformulate the Pepsi-Cola syrup formula.

On three separate occasions between 1922 and 1933, the Coca-Cola Company was
offered the opportunity to purchase the Pepsi-Cola company and it declined on each
occasion.
Coca-cola
The prototype Coca-Cola recipe was formulated at the Eagle Drug and Chemical
Company, a drugstore in Columbus, Georgia by John Pemberton, originally as a coca
wine called Pemberton's French Wine Coca. He may have been inspired by the
formidable success of Vin Mariani, a European coca wine.

In 1886, when Atlanta and Fulton County passed prohibition legislation, Pemberton
responded by developing Coca-Cola, essentially a non-alcoholic version of French Wine
Coca. The first sales were at Jacob's Pharmacy in Atlanta, Georgia, on May 8, 1886. It
was initially sold as a patent medicine for five cents a glass at soda fountains, which were
popular in the United States at the time due to the belief that carbonated water was good
for the health. Pemberton claimed Coca-Cola cured many diseases, including morphine
addiction, dyspepsia, neurasthenia, headache, and impotence. Pemberton ran the first
advertisement for the beverage on May 29 of the same year in the Atlanta Journal.

By 1888, three versions of Coca-Cola — sold by three separate businesses — were on the
market. Asa Griggs Candler acquired a stake in Pemberton's company in 1887 and
incorporated it as the Coca Cola Company in 1888. The same year, while suffering from
an ongoing addiction to morphine, Pemberton sold the rights a second time to four more
businessmen: J.C. Mayfield, A.O. Murphey, C.O. Mullahy and E.H. Bloodworth.
Meanwhile, Pemberton's alcoholic son Charley Pemberton began selling his own version
of the product.
John Pemberton declared that the name "Coca-Cola" belonged to Charley, but the other
two manufacturers could continue to use the formula. So, in the summer of 1888, Candler
sold his beverage under the names Yum Yum and Koke. After both failed to catch on,
Candler set out to establish a legal claim to Coca-Cola in late.
1888, in order to force his two competitors out of the business. Candler purchased
exclusive rights to the formula from John Pemberton, Margaret Dozier and Woolfolk
Walker. However, in 1914, Dozier came forward to claim her signature on the bill of sale
had been forged, and subsequent analysis has indicated John Pemberton's signature was
most likely a forgery as well.

In 1892 Candler incorporated a second company, The Coca-Cola Company (the current
corporation), and in 1910 Candler had the earliest records of the company burned, further
obscuring its legal origins. By the time of its 50th anniversary, the drink had reached the
status of a national icon in the USA. In 1935, it was certified kosher by Rabbi Tobias
Geffen, after the company made minor changes in the sourcing of some ingredients.
Coca-Cola was sold in bottles for the first time on March 12, 1894. The first outdoor wall
advertisement was painted in the same year as well in Cartersville, Georgia. Cans of
Coke first appeared in 1955. The first bottling of Coca-Cola occurred in Vicksburg,
Mississippi, at the Biedenharn Candy Company in 1891. Its proprietor was Joseph A.
Biedenharn. The original bottles were Biedenharn bottles, very different from the much
later hobble-skirt design that is now so familiar. Asa Candler was tentative about bottling
the drink, but two entrepreneurs from Chattanooga, Tennessee, Benjamin F. Thomas and
Joseph B. Whitehead, proposed the idea and were so persuasive that Candler signed a
contract giving them control of the procedure for only one dollar. Candler never collected
his dollar, but in 1899 Chattanooga became the site of the first Coca-Cola bottling
company. The loosely termed contract proved to be problematic for the company for
decades to come. Legal matters were not helped by the decision of the bottlers to
subcontract to other companies, effectively becoming parent bottlers.

Coke concentrate, or Coke syrup, was and is sold separately at pharmacies in small
quantities, as an over-the-counter remedy for nausea or mildly upset stomach.
