As the global reputation of US brands slips, some US firms are turning to unusual marketing strategies. Coca-Cola, for instance, is now promoting itself as a “German product.”
They did that once before! They called it Fanta, the official soft drink of the third reich.
Fritz.
Sinalco!
Afri!
Vita!
Vielanker!
Tirola!
Freeway Cola
Insert 3 dragons meme
Now Black Cola
Lmao
Still not gonna buy it because it is American owned.
They can print “made in germany” as big as they like, the money still goes to a US company. If Coca Cola had to pull out of Europe, Jana would make Fritz Cola (or any other) instead, so idgaf.
It’s funny how they try so hard to keep up their profits. If Trump did one thing, it was that now the world hates the USA.
I’m just glad that the buyers’ new brand awareness has some impact. Admitting this even with a big campaign is the best message people could have hoped for. And yes, there are still a lot more brands to tackle.
Yes! I hope we can keep up the momentum. Don’t buy USA owned stuff, change to Linux, use startpage instead of google etc…
Does our president also have a Coca-Cola button like Trump?
Better, we have https://fritz-kola.com/ .

Now i have to think of Merz when i drink Fritz-Kola. They have to rebrand.

The community is named BuyFromEU, so suggesting an American product is strange.
