All Coca Cola franchisers are expected to observe strict guidelines on production equipment and quality. To ensure quality is maintained there are regular checks that involve collecting of sample to be analyzed. Additionally there is use of total quality management in the production prices and employing of just in time practice in delivery of inputs and final product to the market. The production process can be improved by reducing all forms of pollution, utilization of water and reduction of freight costs. The production line can be improved modernizing the usage of water, extending health products in line of coke, pruning of Fanta orange and introduction of Fanta zero.
