About the Company

Coca-Cola Refreshments

We Make, Market and Distribute Happiness!

How do you make "happiness"?

It all depends on how you define it. To us at Coca-Cola Refreshments, it's those everyday moments when people reach for one of our products, open it, take a drink and say, "Ahhh."

That may seem like a small goal. But consider that every second of every day, thousands of Coca-Cola Refreshments teams are doing just that. So the challenge we face – to make, market and distribute great Coca-Cola products throughout North America – is a big one.

It began with the first Coca-Cola beverage ever poured in Atlanta in 1886. That year, about nine drinks a day were sold. We continue to carry on that promise and, today, the worldwide Coca-Cola system sells 1.8 billion servings a day.

Our quest continues with the commitment to make sure your favorite Coca-Cola brand of sparkling beverages, juices and juice drinks, water and water beverages, sports drinks, teas and energy drinks is always available in North America where you want it, when you want it.

If you share our passion for helping people enjoy life a little more each day, and you are excited by the opportunity to learn and grow while you do it, you should explore a career with Coca-Cola Refreshments now. Then, when people ask what you do, you can say that you help make, market and distribute happiness!
