About
This dataset provides historical stock performance data for The Coca-Cola Company, a significant North American multinational beverage corporation. Incorporated under Delaware's General Corporation Law and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, the company holds interests in the manufacturing, retailing, and marketing of non-alcoholic beverage concentrates and syrups, as well as alcoholic beverages. The Coca-Cola Company is famously known for its sugary drink, Coca-Cola, which was invented in 1886 by pharmacist John Stith Pemberton. The original product incorporated coca leaves and kola nuts, providing a stimulative effect that led to its marketing as a healthy "tonic." The formula and brand were sold in 1889 to Asa Griggs Candler, who then incorporated The Coca-Cola Company in 1892.
