Because when we help the world thrive, so do we.

Swire Coca-Cola, USA is committed to the sustainable development of our company. We strive to minimize the environmental impact of the production, sales and distribution of our products. We carefully consider all of our activities and the needs of our community so we can be good stewards of our planet and the communities in which we operate.

Our sustainability goals center around three areas – Planet, Product and People. 

Planet

Water: In collaboration with Coca-Cola North America, our projects in Swire territories return to communities and nature an amount of water equivalent to what we use in the production of our beverages.  

Water is the main ingredient in most of our beverages and it is essential to our manufacturing processes. Most importantly, water is the life-sustaining resource for the communities and ecosystems in which we operate, therefore it is paramount that we share and manage this precious resource together.

We approach our water stewardship goal through three strategies: risk management, conservation, and replenishment. First, it is important for us to understand where our source water comes from, so we ensure we map out the risks to the watersheds in which we operate. Second, our conservation projects work to reduce the amount of water used in the manufacturing process. We’ve reduced our manufacturing water consumption by almost one-third. Third, Swire Coca-Cola is aligned with The Coca-Cola Company to safely return to communities and nature an amount of water equal to what we use in our finished beverages.

Climate: We aim to reduce absolute carbon emissions from across our value chain and enhance our business resilience to climate change.

  • By 2026 we will generate 100% of the electricity we use from renewable sources.
