Coca-Cola Wins Twin Awards in Sri Lanka Amid 65-Year Anniversary Celebrations

Coca-Cola has marked its 65th year in Sri Lanka by winning two prestigious awards at the Calin Popular Awards 2026 and SLIM DIGIS 2.6. The brand was named 'Most Popular Beverage Brand of the Year' at the Calin Popular Awards, solidifying its position as a consumer favorite. This recognition is particularly significant given Coca-Cola's long history in Sri Lanka, with the brand having been part of the country's culture for six decades.

At SLIM DIGIS 2.6, Coca-Cola's Real Magic campaign was recognized for 'Best Use of Experiential & On-Ground Digital Amplification'. This award highlights the brand's ability to connect with consumers through innovative digital experiences. The campaign, which is part of Coca-Cola's anniversary celebrations, has been a major success in engaging with Sri Lankan consumers.

Mario Perera, Country Head, Sri Lanka and Maldives, The Coca-Cola Company, attributed the brand's continued popularity to its ability to adapt to changing consumer preferences. 'These recognitions are especially meaningful as we celebrate 65 years in Sri Lanka,' he said. 'Generations of Sri Lankans have continued to choose Coca-Cola, and that trust is something we never take for granted.'
