A myth I'm afraid. There are other countries where Coca Cola aren't the dominant brand (obvious countries include Cuba and North Korea) Plus Irn Bru and Coca Cola sales in Scotland are pretty even. Certainly "cannot get close" is an exaggeration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you show me the comparison table of these even sales you state in Scotland of Irn-Bru vs Coca Coca - as they are not even at all. Irn Bru outsells Coca Cola in Scotland 2 to 1.

Yeah, exactly. But the original "fact" seems to have emerged from this map which includes countries like Cuba and North Korea 25 minutes ago, AvfcRigo82 said: Can you show me the comparison table of these even sales you state in Scotland of Irn-Bru vs Coca Coca - as they are not even at all. Irn Bru outsells Coca Cola in Scotland 2 to 1. No I can't, they're quite hard to get hold of when you're having a quick google at work (ooo err). I didn't really expect you to take this news so hard and have to look for proof But I can quote articles like this one from The Scotsman Quote Irn-Bru is around level with Coca-Cola in terms of sales in Scotland or this from the Irn Bru Wiki Quote It has long been the most popular soft drink in Scotland, with Coca-Cola second, but competition between the two brands has brought their sales to roughly equal levels. I'd be genuinely interested if you can show something that shows Irn Bru outsells Coca Cola by a ratio of 2:1 Edited March 9, 2018 by Stevo985 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm lacking the hard sales figures, I'd actually be genuinely interested to see them. That's why I asked if you had them to back up your Irn Bru outsells Coca Cola by 2:1 claim. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
