Coca-Cola Co may set up a plant in Sri Lanka to feed demands in India, which has the highest demand of the firm’s products in South Asia, the Sri Lankan finance ministry on Monday said.
Coca-Cola’s interest was expressed by the Asia Pacific chiefs of the company when they met the finance minister Ravi Karunanayake here over the weekend, it said in a statement.
“They pointed out that Sri Lanka could be developed into a production hub to re-export their products to India. India has the highest demand for Coca Cola products in the South Asian region.”
The non-alcoholic beverages market in India is said to be around $5 billion, according to the data available on the website of Indian Beverage Association, which is formed by firms with direct and allied interests in the non-alcoholic beverage industry.
