Over the years, the company grew rapidly, expanding its product line and market reach to become one of the most recognized and valuable brands in the world.
The Coca-Cola Company has set a goal to collect and recycle a bottle or can for every one it sells by 2030. The company is also working on reducing the amount of plastic used in its packaging, increasing the use of recycled materials, and developing more sustainable packaging solutions.

These include efforts to reduce water usage and improve water quality, enhance recycling and reduce plastic waste, promote sustainable agriculture, and reduce carbon emissions across its supply chain.
