What Coca-Cola does
Coca-Cola owns and markets soft drinks and other nonalcoholic drinks sold in more than 200 countries and territories. Its brands include Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, Sprite and Fanta, as well as Dasani and smartwater, Powerade and BODYARMOR, Minute Maid and Simply juices, fairlife milk and Costa coffee. Drinks under its brands account for about 2.2 billion servings a day. Coca-Cola mostly does not bottle its own drinks. Its main business sells concentrate and syrups to independent bottling companies, which mix, package and deliver the finished drinks in their own territories; this brought in 59% of revenue in 2025. The rest comes from selling finished drinks, mainly through bottling businesses it owns, which bring in more revenue but lower profit margins. It reports four regional segments, covering Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Latin America, North America and Asia Pacific, plus a Bottling Investments segment for its own bottlers.
Biggest risks, in its own words
- Its reliance on independent bottlers, whose finances and relations with Coca-Cola affect its sales.
- Worries about obesity and sugar, and changing tastes, that could cut demand for its soft drinks.
- New taxes on drinks, warning labels and limits on marketing that could hurt sales.
- Concerns and rules about plastic bottles and packaging, and shortages of clean water, that could raise costs or cut demand.
