Celebrate Founders' Day This Saturday
This Saturday, May 8, marks the 124th anniversary of the day the first glass of Coca-Cola was served at a corner pharmacy in Atlanta. So it’s a great time to pause and consider what a wonderful journey it has been and to consider the enormous opportunity before us.
What began with one Coke at Jacobs' pharmacy is now the largest beverage company in the world. What started as a few local bottlers is now a global franchise system that operates in 206 countries. And what started as one brand has grown to a portfolio of more than 500 brands and more than 3,000 beverage products.
Today, Coca-Cola is the most recognized brand on Earth. And here in North America, it continues to be the number-one nonalcoholic beverage and to increase its leadership in volume and value share, as well as brand health scores, against its main competitor.
In honor of Founders' Day this year, we invite you to celebrate by spreading happiness and sharing an ice-cold Coca-Cola with friends, family, neighbors, or even complete strangers, because while the business may have grown since 1886, some things haven't changed. The promise of Coke is still the same -- to provide moments of pleasure, uplift and refreshment like no other beverage.
Thanks for being a good steward of our brands every day, and have a happy Founders' Day!
