WATER

Essential to people, ecosystems, and is the main ingredient in our products.

We aim to promote water stewardship within our business to increase water use efficiency and treat and return safe water to communities.

Water replenishment

Since 2015, we have met or exceeded our goal to return more than 100% of the water used in our finished products globally, on an aggregate level, to nature and communities with support from The Coca‑Cola Foundation, owned and independent bottling partners and independent suppliers and partners.

Community programs to support access to water & sanitation

Together with The Coca‑Cola Foundation, our partners and co-funders, we helped support millions of people gain access to water, sanitation and hygiene and recovery during crises and natural disasters.

Taking a local approach

We have operations around the world. And because we source water locally, we also aim to reach 100% replenishment in each of our more than 200 high-risk locations* across the Coca‑Cola system by 2035. These locations represent almost a third of our locations* globally.
