Coca-Cola HBC AG, a growth-focused Consumer Packaged Goods business and strategic bottling partner of The Coca-Cola Company, today announces its Q1 2026 trading update.
We delivered a good start to the year, with organic revenue growth of 11.6% and ongoing share gains, representing high quality results despite challenging macro conditions. Strong underlying volume growth was in line with our plans, and was further strengthened by additional selling days over the period. We made progress against our strategy, investing in our unique 24/7 portfolio, activating Coke & Meals campaigns across our markets, and launching innovations for Monster and Powerade. We continue to invest in our bespoke capabilities, which enabled strong segmented execution across all markets.
Sustainability remains at the core of our strategy, and we were pleased our achievements were further recognised as we were confirmed for the ninth time as the world’s most sustainable beverage company in the Dow Jones Best‑in‑Class Indices.
Despite heightened geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty, we remain confident that our portfolio, capabilities and people position us to win in the market, and we are reiterating our 2026 guidance today. Thank you to our teams, customers, The Coca‑Cola Company and all our partners for their ongoing support.
Zoran Bogdanovic Chief Executive Officer of Coca-Cola HBC AG
