The commerce students of Class XI visited the Coca-Cola factory at Taratala on November 9 and 10, 2022.
The pupils acquired knowledge about the history of the Coca-Cola company, its product portfolio, country of operations and scale of operations. They were very excited as they went into the production room and learnt a lot about the manufacturing process, its packing, packaging, labelling processes and finally how the soft drinks are transported to various retailers by virtue of the company’s supply chain.
The industrial visit benefitted the students immensely. They were asked to submit a project report on Business Studies based on their visit.
