Far Coast is The Coca-Cola Company's entry into the specialty coffee, tea and premium roast & ground coffee category.
Coca-Cola officially launched the Far Coast brand in 2006 with the opening of four "concept stores" in Toronto, Oslo, Singapore, and Atlanta. The stores, which have subsequently closed, were used for the purpose of conducting market and consumer research before the brand was fully commercialized in the early part of 2008.
All Far Coast coffee blends are independently certified Fair Trade, Rainforest Alliance, or organic by the OCIA. [1]
Recently Far Coast was featured as the Official Brewed Beverage of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games. The brand's coffees, teas and cocoa were served at all Olympic venues, including the Vancouver and Whistler Athlete's Villages, where Far Coast displayed their locally designed outdoor tables and chairs made out of reclaimed pine destroyed by the Mountain Pine Beetle. During the Games, all Far Coast products were served in a 100% compostable cup, lid, and hot beverage sleeve - an Olympic Games first. [2]
In Canada, Far Coast is served in a number of high traffic venues, including the CN Tower, Ontario Place, and nationwide at Cineplex Entertainment theatres.
Far Coast items are now on sale on spreadthered.ca and it appears the website has been removed indicating a possible discontinuation of the product line.
Coca-Cola, or Coke, is a carbonated soft drink manufactured by the Coca-Cola Company. Originally marketed as a temperance drink and intended as a patent medicine, it was invented in the late 19th century by John Stith Pemberton in Atlanta, Georgia. In 1888, Pemberton sold Coca-Cola's ownership rights to Asa Griggs Candler, a businessman, whose marketing tactics led Coca-Cola to its dominance of the global soft-drink market throughout the 20th and 21st century. The drink's name refers to two of its original ingredients: coca leaves and kola nuts. The current formula of Coca-Cola remains a closely guarded trade secret; however, a variety of reported recipes and experimental recreations have been published. The secrecy around the formula has been used by Coca-Cola in its marketing as only a handful of anonymous employees know the formula. The drink has inspired imitators and created a whole classification of soft drink: colas.

Umbrella branding is a marketing practice involving the use of a single brand name for the sale of two or more related products. Umbrella branding is mainly used by companies with a positive brand equity. All products use the same means of identification and lack additional brand names or symbols etc. This marketing practice differs from brand extension in that umbrella branding involves the marketing of similar products, rather than differentiated products, under one brand name. Hence, umbrella branding may be considered as a type of brand extension. The practice of umbrella branding does not disallow a firm to implement different branding approaches for different product lines.
