Coca Cola India At the core of our business in India, as in the rest of the world is our production and

distribution network, which we call the Coca-Cola system. Globally, the Coca-Cola system includes our Company and more than 300 bottling partners. The Coca-Cola Company manufactures and sells concentrate and beverage bases. Our authorized bottlers combine our concentrate or beverage bases as the case may be with sweetener (depending on the product), water or carbonated water to produce finished beverages. These finished beverages are packaged in authorized containers bearing our trademarks -- such as cans, refillable glass bottles, non-refillable PET bottles and tetra packs -- and are then sold to wholesalers or retailers. In India, additionally, the Company also sells certain powdered beverage mixes such as Vitingo and Fanta Fun Taste. Our beverages reach our ultimate consumers through our customers: the grocers, small retailers, hypermarkets, restaurants, convenience stores and millions of other businesses that are the final points of distribution in the Coca-Cola system. What truly defines the Coca-Cola system, and indeed what makes it unique among businesses, is our ability to create value for our customers and consumers. In India, the Coca-Cola system comprises of a wholly owned subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company namely Coca-Cola India Pvt Ltd which manufactures and sells concentrate and beverage bases and powdered beverage mixes, a Company-owned bottling entity, namely, Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages Pvt Ltd; thirteen authorized bottling partners of The CocaCola Company, who are authorized to prepare, package, sell and distribute beverages under certain specified trademarks of The Coca-Cola Company; and an extensive distribution system comprising of our customers, distributors and retailers. Coca-Cola India Private Limited sells concentrate and beverage bases to authorized bottlers who are authorized to use these to produce our portfolio of beverages.These authorized bottlers independently develop local markets and distribute beverages to grocers, small retailers, supermarkets, restaurants and numerous other businesses. In turn, these customers make our beverages available to consumers across India.

In turn, these customers make our beverages available to consumers across India. The Coca-Cola Company has invested nearly USD 1.1 billion in its operations in India since its re-entry back into India in 1992. The Coca-Cola system in India directly employs over 25,000 people including those on contract. The system has created indirect employment for more than 1,50,000 people in related industries through its vast procurement, supply and distribution system. We strive to ensure that our work environment is safe and inclusive and that there are plentiful opportunities for our people in India and across the world. The beverage industry is a major driver of economic growth. A National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) study on the carbonated soft-drink industry indicates that this industry has an output multiplier effect of 2.1. This means that if one unit of output of beverage is increased, the direct and indirect effect on the economy will be twice of that. In terms of employment, the NCAER study notes that an extra production of 1000 cases generates an extra employment of 410 man days. As a Company, our products are an integral part of the micro economy particularly in small towns and villages, contributing to creation of jobs and growth in GDP. Coca-Cola in India is amongst the largest domestic buyers of certain agricultural products. As an industry which has strong backward and forward linkages, our operations catalysis growth in demand for products like glass, plastic, refrigeration, transportation, and Industrial and agricultural products. Our operations also lead to incremental growth for enterprises engaged in post production activities like merchandising, marketing and sales. In addition, we share best practices and technological advancements with our suppliers, vendors and allied industries which often lead to improvement in the overall standards of quality across industries. The Coca-Cola Company has always placed high value on good citizenship. Our basic proposition entails that our Companys business should refresh the market; enrich the workplace; protect and preserve the environment; and strengthen the community. We leverage our unique strengths to actively support and respond to local needs -- be it the need for education, health, water or nutrition. We have used our distribution network for disaster relief, our marketing prowess to raise awareness on issues such as PET recycling, and our presence in communities to improve access to education and potable water. The Coca-Cola India Foundation is now taking forward in the community at large, projects and programs of social relevance to carry forward the message of inclusive growth and development.
