Quality Leadership in Action

A Business Embracing Agility

Latin America is a diverse group of countries with rapidly growing economies and fast-evolving consumers. 2022 marked an exceptionally transformational year for our LATAM business, as we embraced digital solutions for both ourselves and our customers and enabled a step-change in the digitization of our relationships across the industry, while establishing critical Long-Term Relationship Models (LTRM) with many of our bottlers, and continuing to launch consumer focused innovations like our alcohol ready-to-drink launches of Jack & Coke and Schweppes Premium Drink cocktails.

In the segment, more the 70% of traditional trade customers are now digitally connected and ordering via a non-salesperson dependent method, freeing those employees up to win incremental business. Further, we have noticed a mid-single-digit uptick in order size for those establishments who regularly order via these solutions, as storeowners can more strategically purchase shipments on their own time.

The LTRM is an evolution in our relationship, and empower our bottlers to "grow the pie" today by opening up avenues to earn incremental income and establishing certain corridors and milestones to ensure an equitable value can be arrived upon. As we have continued to experiment outside of our traditional categories, we see a tremendous opportunity in the ARTD space. Latin America has proven to be a successful learning ground and will continue to selectively participate within the category, leveraging the expertise and executional strengths of our regional bottling partners and enhanced organizational alignment.
