In the next 5years, Taikoo Coca Cola, the world's biggest soft drink bottler, plans to invest 5.5 billion yuan to promote business growth in mainland China.

In an exclusive interview from Foodinc, Dang Jian, CEO of Taikoo Coca Cola China, said that 5.5 billion would be largely used to invest in plants and production lines.

As the biggest market of Taikoo Coca Cola, mainland China generated a revenue of HK $28.774 billion last year.

The company will seek growth from excellent execution, digital innovation, and better product portfolio.

He also mentioned that with the rise of sugar free drinks, Taikoo Coca Cola has launched more related products. Now, low sugar and zero sugar are available in about 60% of beverage brands in mainland China.
