A new Coke – level 1
28-07-2025 07:00
Coca-Cola wants to make a new drink with cane sugar in the US. The drink is already in Mexico. People in the US ask for it. They want a more natural drink. The company says it is a good idea. But it is more expensive to make.
Coca-Cola makes more money now. It puts prices up by 6%. But people buy a little less. Some people in the US and Mexico do not buy Coke. They see a bad video online about Coca-Cola workers. But the video is not real.
Coca-Cola Zero Sugar is very popular. People buy 14% more. The company hopes this year will be good.
Difficult words: cane sugar (sugar which comes from a plant called sugar cane), natural (without chemical substances), popular (when many people like something).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
What happened to Coke’s sales after the company raised its prices by 6%?
