Coca-Cola Egypt Announces its Sponsorship of COP27

In partnership with Egypt’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Coca-Cola system announced its sponsorship of the 27th Annual United Nations Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP27).

The United Nations conference, to be hosted on November 6-18, 2022, in Sharm-El Sheikh, provides a platform for governments, the private sector and civil society to discuss their role in creating solutions that help alleviate the adverse impacts of climate change.

The Coca-Cola Company’s bottling partner in Egypt announced in 2021 its commitment to reach NetZero emissions across their entire value chain in all markets where the company operate by 2040.
