Other bottlers in the Coca-Cola system look after the rest of the world. Sound complicated? Let us explain…
The Coca-Cola Company own the brands, develop new product ideas and produce brand marketing and advertising campaigns. For example, when you see Coca-Cola adverts on TV or on a billboard - that's what they do.
As a bottler, Coca-Cola Enterprises buys syrup concentrate from The Coca-Cola Company, and combines it with other ingredients to manufacture the products. We also market, manufacture and distribute beverage brands independent of The Coca-Cola Company in selected territories. Coca-Cola Enterprises works with customers in Western Europe to get all of these products to market for consumers to enjoy. When you are in one of these countries and see a Coca-Cola truck or a new Coca-Cola promotion in your local supermarket - that's what we do.
Coca-Cola Enterprises has more than 13,000 employees across our business, from supply chain and commercial teams to corporate functions like finance and human resources, contributing towards our goal to always "be the best beverage sales and customer service company".
