Coca-Cola European Partners plc (CCEP) is a multinational bottling company dedicated to the marketing, production, and distribution of Coca-Cola products. CCEP was created on 28 May 2016 as a result of the combination of the three main bottling companies for The Coca-Cola Company in Western Europe i.e. Coca-Cola Enterprises, Coca-Cola Iberian Partners, S.A. and Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetränke AG. The combination created the world’s largest independent Coca-Cola bottler based on net revenues.

Water is the main ingredient in our products and essential to our manufacturing processes. To ensure a sustainable supply of water, we’re working to reduce the amount of water we use in our operations and protect local water sources for future generations. In many of our territories, water resources are affected by over exploitation, poor water management and the impacts of climate change. Water scarcity and deteriorating water quality in our supply chain have become major issues for all businesses in Western Europe. Around 80% of the total water footprint of our products comes from our agricultural supply chain, including sugar beet – which is grown in Western Europe – or the fruit juices we source from around the world.

As a result, we’re taking a value chain approach to handling water with the care that it deserves. We’re aiming to reduce the water we use in our manufacturing sites by 20% by 2025, as well as addressing water impacts within our supply chain. We’re also aiming to replenish 100% of the water we use in areas of water stress through community based partnerships.
