Award for the eighth consecutive year at the SLIM Nielsen People's
Choice Awards 2014, recently.
Coca-Cola has reached out to consumers and the youth in particular,
through sports, music festivals and various social causes.
From becoming a part of traditional festivals such as Avurudu, to
activating the Christmas Caravan during the festive season, Coca-Cola
has found ways to connect with consumers in a relevant and engaging
manner.

who tell us what they want and that makes our lives easier," he said.
