The Coca-Cola System in Nigeria, comprising Coca-Cola Nigeria, CHI Limited and Nigerian Bottling Company, has reiterated its commitment to promoting
sustainable ecosystems and ocean preservation through its Annual System Beach Cleanup exercise in furtherance of its World Without Waste vision. Through this vision, the company is investing in the planet and in its packaging with a goal to collect and recycle a bottle or can for every one it sells globally – regardless of where it comes from – by 2030.
Speaking at the event, the Managing Director, CHI Limited, Eelco Weber, remarked, “For The Coca-Cola System in Nigeria, sustainability remains at the very core of all of our operations. We have set ambitious goals to facilitate this, and we are taking a leading role in Nigeria by collecting and recycling the equivalent of every bottle or can we sell by 2030.
She added, “Ultimately, we recognize that we can’t achieve our goals alone. Addressing plastic waste and recycling challenges requires collaboration between the industry, the public sector, and civil society. Through effective collaboration as well as partnerships with NGOs such as the Food and Beverage Recycling Alliance , National Plastic Action Partnership , Ellen MacArthur Foundation and World Wildlife Fund , we can help accelerate impact”.
