Irresistible and on-par with international cola brands, My Cola takes one more innovative step to level the competition of glass cola bottle marketers.
With global warming bringing in tsunamis and as more natural red lights pop up worldwide, the company not only takes the cue to be more environmentally-friendly, but also sees the potential advantages of reducing waste and recycling in its competitive stride.
Additionally, the worldwide cola drinker’s traditional yet sentimental attachment to the glass bottle is also eagerly considered in bringing this cool, charming change to the Lankan cola consumer.
With My Cola’s success of winning a loyal following both here and in Maldives, the simple dream of continuing to ‘propel the art of innovation’ with its tempting range of flavours, seems to be the right way forward.
Pet Packaging, the inventor of My Cola Beverages started its operation in 1994 as a bottled water manufacturer when hygienic bottled water was merely a concept in Sri Lanka.
Pet Packaging introduced Cristal bottled water and later in 2004, My Cola as a BOI approved project. Powered by an imagination that has now conquered borders, the will to succeed and a continuous learning approach has seen My Cola fertilised as an idea and rinsed through trials and tribulations, a spokesman said. With My Cola’s continuous innovation and achievement, the enterprise now boasts two plants, one in Sri Lanka and another in Maldives.
My Cola operates with a marketing fleet exceeding 80 dedicated marketing personnel and has an island wide coverage with 48 distributors and 246 super markets having proudly obtained a market share of over six per cent.
The company today markets two brands of water and My Cola products with a portfolio of flavours not second to any of the multinational products. The Cristal brand water cascades from thick lush forests in the Hunas mountain range, located in the central hills of Kandy.
The beverage brand My Cola extends flavours such as My Cola, My Orange, My Lemon, My Soda, My Cream Soda, My Ginger Beer and My Power Energy Drink.
“The My Cola range is well presented as modernised environmental friendly convenient PET plastic bottles which will tickle your thirst and tempt you to grab one from the bottle cooler or from the shelf of a corner shop near your home. My Cola not only has flavours to inspire, but a variety of sizes such as the 200 ml, 330 ml, 500 ml or 1500 ml that’s just right for every type of consumer according to the power of purchasing ability and the variable need of the moment. Quality is at the heart of all brands at My Cola,” the spokesman added.
The staff man the factory with pride with expert training received from Scotland, whilst adhering to stringent quality measures and continuously upgrading its best practices to provide the most trusted water and beverage brand in Sri Lanka with SLSI and Ministry of Health certifications.
In addition the company heartily entertains complaints and suggestions frequently from their consumers and dealers to make sure that their name is right-royally protected and preserved in the My Cola drinkers’ minds with strong affection. In fact, it’s a 24-hour commitment to quality that’s seen from head to toe in the My Cola family.
