Overview

Coca-Cola is a global beverage company that sells concentrate and brands to a worldwide bottling network. Its strength is an unrivaled portfolio of brands and a distribution system that reaches almost every market on earth.

It is a classic slow-and-steady compounder: modest growth, high margins, and a long history of rising dividends. The central debate is whether shifting consumer tastes away from sugary drinks threaten its long-term volume growth.
