Coca-Cola Consolidated Exceeds America250 Meal Goal

Coca-Cola Consolidated has exceeded its goal of providing 250,000 meals in support of America's 250th anniversary celebrations. The company, which is the largest Coca-Cola bottler in the US, worked with various partners to deliver nearly 300,000 meals across 14 states and Washington D.C.

The initiative was part of a broader effort by Coca-Cola Consolidated to address food insecurity in the communities it serves. Brent Tollison, Chief People and Public Affairs Officer for Coca-Cola Consolidated, said, 'Giving back to the communities where we do business is a fundamental part of who we are at Coca-Cola Consolidated, and we believe there's no better way to recognise the America250 milestone than by serving those struggling with food insecurity.'

The company partnered with various organizations, including Second Harvest Food Bank, Capital Area Food Bank, and Nashville Soccer Club, to pack meals for those in need. Additionally, local elected officials joined Coca-Cola Consolidated teammates in meal-packing activities as part of America250 celebrations.
