In the past quarter of a century, Coca-Cola HBC Serbia made five significant investments: the purchase of Vlasinka in 2005, the purchase of Fresh&Co a year later, the opening of the Regional Juice Center in 2015, the purchase of Bambi in 2019 and the acquisition of the Rosa Homolje carbonated water bottling plant a year ago.
As part of the Coca-Cola system, together with Bambi, Coca-Cola HBC contributes to the creation of almost 15 thousand jobs along the entire value chain, which is about 0.5% of all jobs. According to the latest 2021 Coca-Cola system and Bambi Socio-economic Impact Study, the system creates 360 million euros of added value to the national economy, which is 0.7% of GDP.
For all this time, Coca-Cola HBC Serbia has been one of the leaders in sustainable business. In 2021 alone, Coca-Cola HBC and Bambi invested over 750 thousand euros in local communities.
On the occasion of 25 years of successful business, the company will implement the annual scholarship project for 25 selected students in the coming year.
