At Equatorial Coca-Cola, we know that our success is tied up with that of our local communities and that when they thrive, so do we. That is why, we are committed to create lasting value for our communities, with a special focus on women and the youth, by investing in them and in their future by improving their health and livelihoods, and by cultivating their employability and skills. To do so, we will work to achieve our 2 main goals which will be driven by 5 action plans.
-

Let Your Eyes Enjoy!
In partnership with Elena Barraquer Foundation and CIONE Ruta de la Luz partnership, Let Your Eyes Enjoy! project is aimed to provide cataract surgeries and prescription glasses free of charge to members of our communities who otherwise would not have access to them.
-
RAIN Project
One of the requirements for projects sponsored by the RAIN program is that they empower women and youth in the communities where the project is deployed. This is because when families must travel long distances to get clean drinking water, women and children are disproportionately affected.
-
Dar L’Ftour
Every year during Ramadan, ECCBC and The Coca-Cola Company join hands to distribute thousands of ftours – the evening meal that breaks the daily fast during the holy month of Ramadan.
-
Project Last Mile
In partnership with The Coca-Cola Company, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and USAID, we leverage our supply chain capabilities to build up governments’ ability to deliver medical supplies to areas where they are currently unable to reach.
05 Sourcing
Make responsible decisions for our communities and our planet by supporting sustainable businesses across our value chain, from the farm to the table.
