Coca-Cola Zero Sugar Coca-Cola Zero Sugar Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, also called Coke Zero Sugar, is a diet cola produced by The Coca-Cola Company. In some countries it is sold as Coca-Cola No Sugar. Coca-Cola Zero Sugar replaced an earlier drink, known as Coca-Cola Zero and Coke Zero, which was similarly a no-calorie cola. Many fans of Coke Zero were furious about the change. Coca-Cola Zero was Coca-Cola's largest product launch in 22 years. The global campaign was done by creative agency Crispin Porter + Bogusky. It was marketed as having a taste that is indistinguishable from standard Coca-Cola, as opposed to Diet Coke,
Jolly Cola had close connections to the brewing industry, that wanted a prohibitive surtax on what a member of the Danish Communist Party called “a bitter cup”. When the Danish producers finally realised that they could not keep Coca-Cola out of the Danish market anymore, they quickly changed their strategy. In January 1959 18 breweries and producers of mineral water went together to form ‘Dansk Coladrik A/S’. This initiative was instigated by Carlsberg and Tuborg so as to produce an original Danish cola that was to be sold nationwide. The soft drink was named Jolly Cola and was an all-out copy product.
