Coca-Cola Continues to Make Moves



Coca-Cola continues to make moves, I write about Coke because they think with a creative edge and have a lot of money to think with. It seems like thier hand is in every cookie jar it can fit into. It is not even a dirty lil hand, either. The internal testing that I just read about with-in Coca-Cola NA is very impressive; and I am not surprised. Digital Signage focused on POP of course, would be a great way for Coke NA to establish and retain for keeps the strongest brand awarness in the industry....if Coke is Coke then I can assume that we will see digital POP displays deployed on a national level by Coke or one of thier agencies will push it through after the agency world gets a little more warmed up to signage....

Can Coke and Godiva Cook Up a Hot Chocolate Winner?
June 25, 2007
By Kenneth Hein


NEW YORK -- Coca-Cola is considering mixing up some hot cocoa with Godiva.

As part of its newly expanded partnership with Campbell Soup Co., the cola giant is mulling a ready-to-drink version of Godiva hot chocolate, per a source close to the plans.

Godiva, which is owned by Campbell, is looking at packaging the hot chocolate in Campbell's Soup at Hand microwaveable packaging.

"We've seen with the launch of [Godiva's proprietary beverage] Chocolixir in 2005 there is potential for growth in new categories," said Godiva rep Erica Lapidus. "It helped expand Godiva into the beverage category and let us appeal to a broader audience." She would not comment on future plans with Coke. Coke declined comment.

It could have been the sparkling turquoise water, the gorgeous boats or the awesome sunshine, but no matter what, it couldn’t have been a more exquisite backdrop for the Digital Signage Expo this year. The exhibitors consisted of new digital signage businesses entering the market, established companies, great sales people, tech people and industry leaders who all had one thing in common and that was passion and a distinct product or service targeted to end-users in need of comprehensive answers from our great industry.






Life’s Good isn’t just the LG commercial slogan; it was very good at the very classy booth design that had good foot traffic and some great looking screens pushing some hardcore digital signage content. LG commercial came in showcasing its new IP (Internet Protocol) Solution technology, which enables the digital signage industry to deliver video content to multiple locations with centralized video content and display control capability. LG’s has a new M4210 series of flat-panel HDTV LCD’s – M4210C-BA and M4210N-BA – that utilizes the company’s IP Solution for integrated networking designed specifically for LG displays. The really cool thing about the people over at LG is a new and refreshing open attitude that projects will ship and everything is possible regarding working every deal no matter how large or small. LG has a fresh perspective to customer service and is reaching out to every reseller, integrator and end-user to offer assistance and to further enhance their commitment to the digital signage industry they have become a new premier sponsor of the digital signage forum.
