Coca-Cola to maintain Mexico investment goal

The Coca Cola Company said it would maintain its roughly $1 billion a year investment in Mexico, its largest market outside the United States, until 2020.

The company, which co-owns bottler Coca Cola FEMSA, said its investment between 2014-2020 would be more than $8.2 billion, or $1.17 billion, per year.

"For the last 10 years the Coca Cola System has invested an average of $1 billion a year and we are reaffirming that promise until 2020," Francisco Crespo, president of Coca Cola Mexico said.
