Our strategy

- Great execution
- Done sustainably
Key focus area for CCEP
We’re focused on our great brands. In close collaboration with TCCC and other franchisors, we are committed to addressing evolving consumer needs through our diversified portfolio of products and packaging sizes.
We endorse the recommendations made by several leading health authorities, including the World Health Organization (WHO), advising people to limit their added sugar consumption to 10% of their total calorie intake.
We continue to reduce sugar across our portfolio, by reformulating our recipes and introducing new products, including new low and no calorie options.
We support transparency by providing customers with straightforward and easy to understand product information, and promote responsible marketing with no advertising of our products to children under 13, or an older age limit in specific regions aligned with local regulations.
Producing safe and high quality products that our consumers can trust is essential to what we do. We adhere to The Coca-Cola Operating Requirements (KORE), which define operational controls and prioritise the sustainable sourcing of ingredients.
Our ambitions
To have brands that people love and to be category leaders with great tasting drinks for every occasion.
To achieve that we are investing in:
- strong and aligned partnerships with brand partners
- producing and delivering high quality and great tasting drinks
- a broad price pack architecture
- channel diversification

Our sales volume within the energy category increased by 14% versus previous year supported by solid distribution and exciting innovation. For example, we launched Monster Zero Sugar in France, Great Britain, the Netherlands and Sweden to promote choice and meet the growing consumer demand for a no calorie and no sugar variant of Monster Original with the same full-flavoured taste.
Key focus area for CCEP
At CCEP, we have an engaging workplace, enabling our great people to do great business for our customers today and tomorrow.
We promote wellbeing, inclusion, diversity, development, innovation and respect, helping to ensure that our people at every level can be heard, grow and have a great experience.
We’re committed to having a positive impact on our people and their communities by supporting economic mobility, and building resilience.
Some people in our local communities face significant socioeconomic barriers, including inequality, social exclusion and unemployment, while environmental challenges affect their daily lives. Across CCEP, we’re tackling these issues and helping to remove people’s barriers to the workplace.
Through our volunteering policy we empower our employees to engage with their communities.

Key focus area for CCEP
We’re working to deliver great execution for customers. We’re driving growth, creating value and delivering results through close support and collaboration, while identifying new channels and implementing transformative new ways to do business.
To ensure we maintain high quality products and services for our customers we must promote reliability, consistency and sustainability throughout our supply chain.
We recognise the importance of having ethical and sustainable procurement practices that support our business and sustainability goals.
As a business, we rely upon a sustainable supply of ingredients like sugar, coffee, tea and juices as well as the raw materials we use for our packaging like glass, aluminium, plastic, pulp and paper. That’s why we continue to invest in our capabilities and the long-standing and supportive relationships we have with our supply chain to provide even better service for our customers.
Our ambitions
Customers
- Strong and supportive customer service, known for our agility and flexibility.
- Great digital tools enabled by high quality data and analytics, known to be easy to do business with and for our world class execution.
Suppliers
- A well invested supply chain and optimised portfolio.
- 100% of our main agricultural ingredients and raw materials sourced sustainably.
- 100% of our suppliers to be covered by our Supplier Guiding Principles (SGPs) – including sustainability, ethics and human rights.
Achievements in 2023
Customers
- Our online customer portal, MyCCEP.com, received a new look and feel to make it easier to use for customers. New tools and functionalities are constantly being added to MyCCEP.com including point of sale materials and consumer insights to help customers grow their businesses.
Suppliers
- Following the launch of our Responsible Sourcing Policy (RSP) in 2022, we focused on actively engaging and communicating with our suppliers across our markets in Europe and API and aiming for 100% of our suppliers to understand and comply with our policy.
- To reduce our Scope 3 emissions, we continued to engage with our carbon strategic suppliers, asking them to set their own science based targets and transition to 100% renewable electricity. This will ensure more of our suppliers have strong SBTi targets in place across our territories and help to reduce their GHG emissions.
Key focus areas for CCEP
We are committed to decarbonising our entire business.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has highlighted the need for urgent climate action(A). We take our responsibility seriously, and have set GHG reduction targets aligned to climate science.
We are taking urgent action to reduce the impact of our packaging.
Waste and pollution, particularly from plastic packaging, are significant global challenges and we are reinventing the way we do business to progressively move away from a linear model and the waste it creates, towards a full circular model.
We have adopted a value chain approach to water stewardship.
Water is vital to our business. It is the main ingredient in our products, essential to our manufacturing processes and crucial for the agricultural ingredients we use. We prioritise water efficiency in our own operations, while safeguarding the sustainability of the water sources our business, communities and suppliers rely upon.
