The Truth About the Coca-Cola Company Around the Globe

Coca-Cola Colombia: Labor Releations

Most of The Coca-Cola Company's beverages are produced, distributed and sold in Colombia by our bottling partner FEMSA. FEMSA is a Latin-American owned company that was founded in 1979 in Mexico. FEMSA employs more than 2,000 workers at its six plants in Colombia, which are unionized at about 9 times the national average. The company has permanent relationships with multiple Colombian unions, including SINALTRAINAL, SINALTRAINBEC and SINTRAINDEGA, the largest unions in the country representing bottling plant workers. Anyone who works for FEMSA must be at least 18 years old, and wages and work hours are regulated by national law and reinforced in collective bargaining agreements. All workers - permanent employees and contractors alike - are paid at least 30 percent above the nation's minimum wage.
