The Coca-Cola Company has committed to investing $10 billion into its US infrastructure from 2026 through 2030, including new or expanded production, distribution and office facilities.

Projects have already been announced in several communities including Rancho Cucamonga, California; Colorado Springs, Colorado; Indianapolis, Indiana; Birmingham, Alabama; Coopersville, Michigan; St. Cloud, Minnesota; Orlando, Florida; and Webster, New York.

The commitment comes alongside an independent study commissioned by the company to measure the Coca-Cola system’s contribution in 2025 – including its network of 61 bottling partners – to the American economy and local communities.

Key findings showed that Coca-Cola contributed $85 billion to the US gross domestic product or approximately $10 million in US economy activity every hour.

It also found the company supported nearly 1 million jobs across the country, including direct jobs within the Coca-Cola system and indirect jobs with retail, foodservice and other goods and services partners.

The company spends approximately $37 billion with American suppliers and contributes $177 million in community programmes in the US together with the Coca-Cola Foundation and Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation, according to the study.

John Murphy, president and chief financial officer at The Coca-Cola Company, said: “This assessment reinforces what we see every day: the Coca-Cola system is deeply rooted in America and continues to deliver meaningful value for the people and communities we serve”.

He added: “Through a strong production network, local jobs, supplier partnerships and community investments, we are building on more than a century of impact while reinforcing the resilience of our system and communities across America”.
