COCA-COLA HBC DONATIONS

Every year, at Coca-Cola HBC Italia, we organise the Coca-Cola Markets at all our sites: a special opportunity to combine team spirit and solidarity. The Markets are dedicated to our employees and, in some cases, also open to family and friends when held during Family Day events.

During the initiative, it is possible to contribute to a good cause by purchasing exclusive items customised with the Coca-Cola logo and those of the other brands our company produces and distributes. All proceeds are donated — through the Coca-Cola HBC Italia Foundation — to support local charitable projects and associations.

This is an initiative much loved by colleagues, who participate enthusiastically every year, turning a simple gesture into a meaningful act of solidarity.

THE 2025 EDITION

On the occasion of the event celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Nogara plant, held on September 20, 2025, the proceeds from the Market were donated to the Auser Nogara Gabriele Olivieri Circle Association. Thanks to the amount raised, equal to €15,977.34, it was possible to support important initiatives in favor of the most vulnerable people in the local community. The funds were allocated to the “Filo d’Argento” project, a weekly phone call service that offers listening, support, and companionship to people who live alone, and to the “Custode Sociale” project, which provides home monitoring for individuals with particular vulnerabilities by a qualified professional. The project is carried out in collaboration with the Don Girelli Association of Ronco all’Adige, which provides the professionals involved, and with the Social Services of the Municipality of Nogara, responsible for identifying the beneficiaries. Part of the funds will also contribute to the purchase of a vehicle to expand the social transport service, making it possible to reach an increasing number of vulnerable people in the surrounding municipalities.

In December 2025, the Coca-Cola Markets took place at our sites in Gaglianico (BI), Oricola (AQ), Marcianise (CE), Rionero in Vulture (PZ), and Roccaforte di Mondovì (CN). The total proceeds of €31,944.09 were donated to the Fondazione Banco Alimentare, in support of the fight against food waste and food poverty.

The charity market at the Sesto San Giovanni branch raised €29,828.40, which will be donated to PizzAut, a project that promotes the employment inclusion of young people with autism. The proceeds will be used to support “CasaAUTentica”, an initiative launched by PizzAut Onlus. These are apartments and spaces where autistic boys and girls participating in the project can engage in activities that help them prepare for independent living. With the guidance of educators, they will have the opportunity to practice self-care and manage household tasks, such as making their bed, using a washing machine, or cooking. The ultimate goal is to foster autonomy, including preparation for life beyond parental support.
