Episode 4: Ramesh Vangal

from Make or Break Hosted by Auddy

Winning battles in the Cola Wars - Ramesh Vangal What’s in a name? Well, when it came to breaking cola brands in India in the 80s, it turns out, quite a lot. In this episode of Make or Break, we hear from Ramesh Vangal, former president of Pepsi Co India, who found himself against the clock to make one of the company’s biggest ever branding decisions. Having reached the final stages of negotiations to bring the Pepsi cola to India, Vangal found himself put on the spot by the country’s food processing minister. Unable to get hold of his senior colleagues, it was down to Vangal to make a decision that could potentially tank the whole deal.
