Coca-Cola Europacific Partners plc, also known as CCEP, is a multinational bottling company headquartered in the United Kingdom.[7][8] It is the world's largest independent Coca-Cola bottler by net revenue and operates in 31 markets globally.[9][10]

CCEP is listed on the London Stock Exchange, is a member of the FTSE 100 Index[11] and is also traded on the Nasdaq stock exchange in the United States. CCEP shares are also available on Euronext Amsterdam and the Spanish Stock Exchange.[12][13]

Formerly known as Coca-Cola European Partners (2016–2021), the company was formed as a merger of the three main bottling companies for The Coca-Cola Company in Western Europe. In 2021 it acquired Australian bottling company Coca-Cola Amatil to form Coca-Cola Europacific Partners.[14]

History

[edit]

The company was formed as Coca-Cola European Partners on 28 May 2016 as a result of the combination of the three main bottling companies for The Coca-Cola Company in Western Europe: Coca-Cola Enterprises, Coca-Cola Iberian Partners S.A.U. and Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetränke GmbH.[15] The combination created the world's largest independent Coca-Cola bottler based on net revenues.[16] The company reported revenue of €20.4 billion in 2024.[17]

The company was first listed on the London Stock Exchange in March 2019, with shares being traded in euros.[18]

Following the acquisition of Australian bottling company Coca-Cola Amatil, the company changed its name from Coca-Cola European Partners to Coca-Cola Europacific Partners on 10 May 2021.[14]

In December 2022, the company bought the naming rights to Erebus Motorsport in the Supercars Championship. The team competed under the name Coca-Cola Racing by Erebus for the 2023 season.[19] CCEP ended the partnership on 5 February 2024, before the start of the 2024 season.[20]

On 23 February 2024, Philippine-based Aboitiz Equity Ventures Inc. (AEV) announced that it had jointly acquired Coca-Cola Beverages Philippines Inc. together with Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP) for $1.8 billion on a debt-free, cash-free basis. CCEP acquired a 60% stake, while Aboitiz Equity Ventures acquired the remaining 40%.[21][22]

Business operations

[edit]

In 2025, CCEP operated in 31 markets across Europe, Australia, the Pacific, Indonesia and the Philippines, with 85 production facilities.[1] The company manufactures, distributes and sells a portfolio that includes global brands such as Coca‑Cola, Sprite, Fanta and Monster, as well as local brands including Mezzo Mix, Urge and L&P. According to its annual reporting, more than 90% of the drinks it sells are produced in the country where they are consumed.[23]
