The socio-economic impact of companies within the Coca-Cola System in our country is equal to a contribution of 0.5% of the country’s GDP, or in other words – each BGN 1 spent on Coca-Cola drinks leads to BGN 0.75 revenue for Bulgaria. In 2021, the two production plants in Kostinbrod and Bankya manufactured 355 million liters of beverages, and the System purchased goods and services worth BGN 131 million from domestic suppliers.
The System pays BGN 41 million in taxes and supports BGN 237 million indirectly. The amount equals 1/2 of the state budget for culture or the annual educational expenses of more than 95 000 students.
