“We have seen that value continues to be something that cuts across every market and every consumer that we see all over the world,” Braun said.
Coca-Cola’s most recent initiatives around affordability include new price pack architecture in Western Europe, new single-serve packages in South Africa and expanded availability of single-serve packages in Vietnam, Braun said.
During the third quarter, Coca-Cola’s organic revenues grew 7%, net revenues grew 7% to $13.4 billion and global unit case volume grew 5%, according to a Tuesday press release.
Together with its Coca-Cola soft drink, the company offers other sparkling soft drinks, juice, value-added dairy beverages, plant-based beverages, water, sports drinks, coffee and tea, per the release.

Looking ahead, Coca-Cola’s full year 2026 guidance calls for at least 5% growth in organic revenues. The company will provide its full year 2027 guidance when it reports its fourth quarter earnings, according to the release.
“To sum it all up, while the global operating environment remains uneven, we are encouraged by the momentum across our business and believe in our ability to deliver more for more markets and more for more brands,” Braun said during the call.
