Our collaboration with key retail customers like 7-Eleven, one of the largest retail networks in Hong Kong, will provide wider channels to support label-less bottled water so as to expand the outreach of our innovative sustainability efforts.”
“As Coca-Cola’s bottling partner, we will continue to apply our expertise to make every possible effort, including design, sourcing, production and delivery, to launch greener choices of beverage products and to steer a sustainable lifestyle,” says Connie Yeung, Director and General Manager of Swire Coca-Cola Hong Kong.
