TRADEMARK

What’s the real difference between a Coke® and a Pepsi®? They’re both carbonated cola soft drinks of the same color and taste somewhat similar. Why does someone choose one over the other?

 

The real difference is how they’re portrayed and presented — how they’re branded — to consumers, and how the consumer connects and associates with the brand.
