More Coca-Cola imports on the way
The Coca-Cola Europacific Aboitiz Philippines has begun importing finished classic Coke products from Indonesia to augment its domestic supply and meet Filipinos’ growing demand for the popular beverage.
The Coca-Cola Europacific Aboitiz Philippines (CCEAP) has started importing finished Coca-Cola products from Indonesia to meet the increasing demand from Filipinos. CCEAP confirmed the imports to The STAR, stating that it aims to ensure consumers have access to their favorite Coca-Cola products. The 320-milliliter and 1.5-liter Coca-Cola Original Taste variants produced in Indonesia by PT Coca-Cola Bottling Indonesia, a subsidiary of Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP), have been imported and distributed by CCEAP.
These products, labeled for export to the Philippines, have proper taxes and duties paid. CCEAP assures consumers that all Coca-Cola Original Taste products, imported or locally produced, follow the same quality standards. This is the first time in at least a decade that an authorized local distributor of Coca-Cola has imported a finished product.
The importation is seen as a business practice to support product availability for consumers, as CCEAP has seen a rise in demand for its beverage products, especially classic Coca-Cola.
