Based on the recent communications circulating in the media regarding Serbian products, or other countries, such as Turkey, Poland, etc., which come for sale in Albania in an unauthorized manner, we announce that Coca-Cola Bottling Albania is the only official Partner authorized by The Coca-Cola Company to produce, fill and distribute its product portfolio in the Albanian territory.

As such, we guarantee compliance with local laws by offering products with labels in the Albanian language, important for knowing the ingredients, the production time, the expiration date and the safety of transport under the right conditions, in every market and to every consumer. Likewise, the products produced in Albania create an increased economic contribution to the Albanian market. A sustainable business model that generates income, jobs, which directly affect the growth of GDP in the country.

In this regard, we emphasize once again that our only goal is to be a dignified company that acts in accordance with the law to serve Albanian consumers.

Of course, it is worth mentioning that any product that circulates illegally, frequently without any label in Albanian, uncontrolled by the state, brings a negative impact on the country’s economy.

Coca-Cola Bottling Albania supports local production by having it as a guiding compass in daily practices, in the selection of Albanian suppliers, workers, partners and distributors and by offering products that are “more Albanian than you think”.

We are very sorry that Albanian consumers are exposed to such an uncontrolled offer of products. In this regard we guarantee our full cooperation with Albanian authorities and Consumer Associations to ensure a swift and quick resolution
