Brazil: Coca-Cola to invest R$30 billion by 2030

Coca-Cola Brasil, the Brazilian subsidiary of the global beverage giant, has announced an investment plan totaling R$ 30 billion ($5.8 billion) in the country by 2030.

This new capital injection represents a significant increase over the R$11 billion ($2.1 billion) the firm committed to the Brazilian market for the 2024-2025 period.

According to the company, the funds will be used to expand its industrial footprint, including the construction of new factories and distribution centres. The investment also aims to modernise existing production lines and bolster sustainability initiatives. Brazil is a critical market for the firm, currently hosting its largest manufacturing plant globally in Jundia, which produces 2 billion litres of beverages annually.

he expansion is expected to create new jobs and strengthen the local supply chain across all regions of the country. This move follows a separate recent investment of R$ 1.5 billion ($290 million) in a high-technology plant in Uberlandia.
