    The Coca-Cola system in Africa unveils water stewardship initiative

    The effort, called “The Coca-Cola System’s Africa Water Stewardship Initiative”, was introduced in Cape Town, South Africa, in presence of executives from the Coca-Cola system in Africa and NGO partners.

    During the event, Karyn Harrington, Vice President of Public Affairs, Communications and Sustainability at The Coca-Cola Company’s Africa Operating Unit indicated “Water is a priority for The Coca-Cola Company and its local bottling partners because it is essential to life, the communities we serve and our beverages.

Our 2030 Water Security Strategy focuses on helping enhance water security where we operate, source ingredients, and touch lives.” (more…)
