Coca-Cola’s Bottling Partners Bolster India’s Logistics Network with Fleet, EV Expansion, and Welfare Push

Coca-Cola, together with its bottling partners, is advancing green logistics in India by expanding one of the nation’s largest truck fleets, now featuring more than 5,000 electric vehicles. This investment strengthens Coca-Cola’s distribution reach across urban and rural markets, supports job creation, and highlights the company’s focus on operational excellence and social impact.

Every day, Coca-Cola products travel hundreds of kilometers to reach consumers nationwide, powered by a vast logistics network and thousands of dedicated truck drivers. The ongoing fleet expansion not only enhances delivery efficiency but also provides stable employment opportunities, reinforcing Coca-Cola’s role as a key contributor to India’s supply chain. Sundeep Bajoria, Vice President, Coca-Cola India, said, “India’s logistics landscape is evolving and we’re evolving with it, responsibly. Our trucking ecosystem is a living engine of economic opportunity and impact-led progress. It creates livelihood opportunities across states, fuels micro-economies in transport hubs, and ensures that our beverages reach every lane and locality, from metro cities to rural kirana stores. As we scale our capabilities, we remain equally focused on enabling the people who power this network with safety, skill-building, and support.”
