MATERIALITY
In 2011, we undertook an internal and externalreview of our CRS aspirations and listenedto a wide range of stakeholders views andexpectations of how our business could
contribute to a more sustainable tomorrow.This work guided the development of oursustainability plan, Deliver for today; Inspirefor tomorrow (see Sustainability Plan below).The plan outlines our commitments andtargets in seven areas deemed to be of thegreatest materiality for CRS in our territories:Energy and Climate Change, SustainablePackaging and Recycling, Water Stewardship,Product Portfolio, Active Healthy Living,Community and Workplace. Progress againstour targets is measured by a set of KeyPerformance Indicators (KPIs). See Factsheet24 for 2013 KPI data.
Coca-Cola products are made by more than250 bottling partners worldwide on behalf ofThe Coca-Cola Company, which creates and
markets brands and trademarks andmanufactures syrups. As one of the licensed,independent bottling partners within theCoca-Cola System, CCE purchases, producesand packages beverages to sell and
distribute to retail and wholesale customers.Our relationship with The Coca-Cola Companyinfluences the way we work, our spheres ofresponsibility and how we determine ourmaterial issues. Our CRS commitments reflectour most significant sustainability impacts,as identified by our 2011 review, and arealigned with The Coca-Cola Company (seeA Joint CRS Vision overleaf).
We have made considerable progressagainst many of our commitments andhave learned a lot since our plan waslaunched. However, we also recognize that
CRS leadership has evolved. During 2014,we intend to review our plan to continueto develop our sustainability journey.

CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY ANDSUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2013/201402/25
INTERVIEW WITH JOHN F. BROCK
AND HUBERT PATRICOT
Q. In October 2014, CCEs sustainabilityplan will be three years old. Whathave you achieved so far?A. John F. Brock:When we launched oursustainability plan, we committed to becomea low-carbon, zero-waste business and
defined priorities for our sustainabilityleadership. The good news is weve madesome excellent progress and reducedthe absolute carbon footprint of our corebusiness operations by 23 percent(exceeding our original 15 percent target).
A. Hubert Patricot:In demonstratingleadership on sustainable packaging andrecycling, we made an important decisionto look outside of our traditional businessmodel. We invested $18 million in tworecycling joint ventures and, as a result,have significantly increased the amount
of PET plastic which can be reprocessedin Great Britain and France and secureda long-term supply of high quality recycledPET for our bottles.
Q. What have you learned andwhat challenges have you faced?A. Hubert Patricot:Weve learned a lot,particularly about the role that innovationand technology can play in accelerating thepace of change. Collaboration is critical we need to share intelligence, maximizeresources, and pool ideas if we are toaddress our challenges and create value
from our sustainability leadership. This wasthe focus of our first Sustainability InnovationSummit, held in October 2013. The eventprovided a valuable opportunity to learnfrom pioneers and influential thinkers.
A. John F. Brock:Our research has shownthat many in the wider business communitystill face hurdles in making the case for
sustainability. The companies that arecommitted to sustainability are seeingresults, but it still needs to be sold in tosome businesses. Additionally, whilewere ahead of plan in certain areas,weve found a number of our targets morechallenging to achieve than we originallyexpected. Renewable energy is a greatexample weve had some success, butare not currently on track to meet ourlong-term target. In 2014, well look againat our strategy and evaluate what successand leadership looks like.
Q. Why does sustainability remainat the heart of your business strategyin tough times?A. John F. Brock:We all face significantsocietal and environmental challenges suchas increased demand for natural resources,water scarcity and continued climatechange. Forward thinking businesseswill be able to turn these challengesinto opportunities. We are proud of theenvironmental leadership that weve beenable to demonstrate, yet we acknowledgethat stakeholder expectations continue to
increase, particularly on obesity, health andwell-being. We are making strides to createa positive impact through our support forlocal active lifestyle programs and our broadportfolio of no- and low- calorie beverages,but we know there is much more to do.
A. Hubert Patricot:Weve also seenmany business benefits from our work
on sustainability greater employeeengagement, enhanced efficiency andeffectiveness and stronger trust at a locallevel where we are proud to support ourcommunities and make a significantsocio-economic contribution.
Q. What role will technology play aspart of your sustainability agenda?A. Hubert Patricot:Technology is animportant enabler of collaboration, whichis becoming increasingly critical for asuccessful sustainability program. Ourpartnership with OpenIDEO enabled us
to utilize an open innovation platform todraw on the optimism, inspiration andideas of creative thinkers around the worldto develop powerful ideas about howto increase at-home recycling.
A. John F. Brock:Technology is also provingto be a powerful sustainability driver.Many companies are using smart, onlinetechnologies to measure and reduce theirenvironmental impact. Others are usingtechnology to design more sustainableproducts, packaging and services.

In thefuture, the most successful businesseswill be those that put sustainability at theheart of business decision-making andcreate value from sustainability.
A. John F. Brock:As business leaders today,we need to ask ourselves what we wantto be remembered for. We need to drivesustainability and inspire change throughoutour own organizations and simultaneouslyaddress the concerns of future generations.

Committee, a cross-functional group ofsenior leaders, and by similar committeesin each geographic business unit. Of the123 reported violations in 2013, 103 weresubstantiated and resulted in actionsranging from written or verbal warningsto dismissal.
RISK MANAGEMENT AND
BUSINESS PLANNING
Social and environmental risks areconsidered strategic business risks and areassessed annually as part of our enterpriserisk model. Incorporated within the 361risksin our risk register are global environmentalissues such as climate change, waterscarcity, waste and pollution, and globalhealth and well-being trends.
Other risks include health and safety,supplier management, ethics and
compliance, and trust and reputation. Ourtop 18 risks are assigned to specific Boardcommittees and members of the ExecutiveLeadership Team (ELT) who chair thosecommittees.
As the ELT member responsible for CRS,Laura Brightwell is accountable for socialand environmental risks. These are reviewedannually by the Boards CRS Committee andrisks that could materially affect our businessand financial results are disclosed in Form10-K in CCEs Annual Report and quarterlyfinancial reporting.
In accordance with the precautionaryprinciple, CRS is considered within thedevelopment process for any major project,product or new investment and is built intoour annual business planning process.Progress against our sustainability planis reported every year.
ETHICS AND COMPLIANCE
At CCE, we follow our RIGHT Way modelof ethical values. Our actions, decisionsand behavior must always be RIGHT maintaining Respect, Integrity, Good
judgement, Honesty andTrust. These valuesare the foundation of our Code of BusinessConduct and are qualities that underpinour decisions and working practices. In

OUR STRATEGY
Our sustainable manufacturing strategyfocuses on:
Manufacturing excellence:developingand adopting high standards consistentlyacross our plants.
Our people:working in collaboration to
continually drive better performance. Innovation and investment:developing
technology and process efficienciesand improvements.
MANUFACTURING EXCELLENCE
Our aim is to achieve and continually driveexcellence and high operating standardsin our plants. We focus on efficiency andeffectiveness through a harmonizedmanagement and operational approach,rolling out consistent standards, newinnovations and best practice across ourterritories. We call this the CCE Way.
As part of this system, all our plants arecertified to the food safety standard,FSSC 22000, and 16 are certified to theinternationally recognized standards forhealth and safety, ISO 18001, andenvironmental management, ISO 14001.
We continue to explore opportunities toinnovate and enhance our approach. Forexample, we have piloted the new energymanagement standard, ISO 50001, atWakefield and East Kilbride in Great Britain,Dunkerque in France and Chaudfontaine
in Belgium and plan to incorporate lessonslearned in our management system updates.
INTRODUCTION
We manufacture more than 40 brands including some of themost popular soft drinks in the world Coca-Cola, Diet Coke,Coca-Cola Light, Coca-Cola Zero, Fanta and Sprite. We operate17 manufacturing sites in six countries, which includes a total of87 production lines and more than 4,600 employees.
Manufacturing is at the heart of our business. Our focus is on
excellence and efficiency, providing quality and value for our customersand protecting the safety of our employees and the environment inwhich we operate. In 2013, we invested $65 million in process andequipment innovation and improvements. We have also developedSustainability Master Plans for all our sites. Well continue to seekfurther improvements within our operat ions and in collaborat ionwith our suppliers.
This factsheet provides an overview of our sustainability approachwithin our manufacturing operations. For more detail on our specificworkplace safety, energy and renewable energy, water stewardshipand water protection programs, see Factsheets 14, 16, 21 and 22.

We have also invested in low-carbon andrenewable energy with solar photovoltaicpanels installed in Great Britain at Edmonton,Sidcup, Wakefield and our new head office inUxbridge where they are linked to electriccar charging points.
In 2014, we plan to instal a CombinedHeat and Power (CHP) unit at Wakefieldin Great Britain and are continuing thepilot project between our Dongen plantin the Netherlands and a neighboringglass manufacturer, Ardagh, to testwhether we can capture and use wasteheat lost during glass production.
See Factsheet 16 for more detail on ourenergy and renewable energy strategy.
WASTE AND RECYCLING
We are committed to reducing andrecycling the waste at our manufacturingplants. The vast majority of this waste isreadily recyclable and for many years wehave operated a robust waste recyclingprogram based on raising awareness,monitoring waste data and separatingwaste at source.
In 2009, we set a target of zero wasteto landfill by the end of 2014. In 2013,14 sites had achieved this goal and99.5 percent of our overall waste wasbeing recycled or recovered compared
to 99.4 percent in 2012.
OUR PEOPLE
People and collaboration are key to oursuccess. We operate a strong networkof plant and national environment and safetymanagement teams, working togetherto focus on specific projects, corporategoals and targets as well as sharing newinnovations and efficiency measures.
We set environmental and safety targetsannually across the company. These aresupported by improvement plans andmonthly performance reviews at plant,country and senior leadership level. Plantdirectors and senior leaders are also madeaccountable and incentivized through theinclusion of CRS targets within personalobjectives and appraisals.
INNOVATION AND INVESTMENT
We devote a great deal of time, resourcesand investment to driving down our energyand water use. During 2013, we investedmore than $57 million in new productionlines and equipment and a further $8 millionin additional energy and water savingtechnologies, collectively providing savingsof $1.6 million, plus more than 7,200 tonnesof CO2e and 9,800 cubic meters (m
3) of water.This included new PET lines in Wakefield,Great Britain and Clamart in France.
We have invested in monitoring and targeting
systems and metering in our plants. Thisprovides operators with live data to monitorand benchmark water and energy use andidentify opportunities for improvement.
We have identified our top five techniquesfor saving water and energy and dedicatedteams are rolling these out across our plants.We have also adopted the Water and EnergySavers programs jointly developed by TheCoca-Cola Company and the World WildlifeFund (WWF) to help bottlers around the worldachieve new levels of efficiency. The waterprogram has been implemented at the
majority of our plants and six facilitieshave been certified as completing theenergy program.
WATER
Our water saving efforts focus on bothinnovation and encouraging the rightbehaviors. Recent projects include optimizingprocesses and procedures linked to watertreatment, manufacturing and cleaning, therinsing of containers and recycling andreclaiming water where possible.
As a result, in 2013, we were rated the mostwater-efficient bottler within the Coca-ColaSystem and achieved our lowest ever wateruse ratio of 1.35 liters of water used per li terof product produced, a 3.5 percentimprovement from 2012 (1.40l/l).
We seek both to conserve water withinour own operations and to protect our watersources. All our plants have completedSource Vulnerability Assessments (SVAs)
and Source Water Protection Plans (SWPPs)to ensure water is abstracted in asustainable way, whether from the groundor from the municipal supply.
In recognition of our high standards of watermanagement, we were the first to receivethe new gold-level European WaterStewardship (EWS) Standard at our facility inDongen in the Netherlands and our mineralwater plant in Chaudfontaine in Belgium.
See Factsheets 21 and 22 for more detailon water stewardship and water protectionand replenishment respectively.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND RENEWABLES
Fostering good behaviors is also at the heartof our energy-efficiency programs. We havea company-wide maintenance and air leaksurvey and repair program and carry outequipment upgrades to reduce energyuse. In 2013, these included installingenergy-efficient LED lighting, making ourbottle-blowers more efficient, convertingour packer ovens to gas, optimizing ourcompressed air systems and introducingconveyor sleep modes.
With these and other initiatives, in 2013 weachieved our lowest-ever energy use ratioof 76.83 kWh per 1,000 liters of manufacturedproduct, a reduction of nearly six percentsince 2012 (81.54 kWh).
CASE STUDY
Carbon Trust Standards
CCE holds the Carbon Trust Standard forgreenhouse gas reduction and in 2013was one of the first businesses to gainthe newly created Carbon Trust WaterStandard for efficient water use. Thesestandards are designed to recognize anorganizations commitment andachievements in carbon and water
management. Both awards applyacross our entireEuropeanoperation.
CASE STUDY
Manufacturing for the future
Between 2012 and 2013 we invested$100 million in our operations inNorway. Our plant has been completely
transformed with the installation of newlines, the latest in production equipmentand improvements to productionprocesses, enabling the plant to nowuse recyclable, non-refillablePET bottles.
Higher standards and more efficientequipment have had an outstandingimpact on both environmental and safetyperformance. Water and energy use in one
year have reduced by 13 and 14.5 percentrespectively and safety performance haschanged from being a plant with one ofthe highest accident rates in CCE in 2012to now having one of the lowest within CCEand the Coca-Cola System.

OUR STRATEGY
Our sustainable procurement strategyfocuses on three pillars:
Our people:training our procurementteams on sustainability.
Our procurement processes:ensuringour processes support sustainablepurchasing decisions.
Our suppliers:encouraging oursuppliers to improve their ownsustainability performance.
OUR PEOPLE
In CCE, we have developed a bespokemodular training toolkit to equip ourprocurement teams with a goodunderstanding of what we mean bysustainability and how this affects ourpurchasing decisions. The toolkitcomprises of:
Module 1 CCEs sustainability journeyand commitments.
Module 2 CCEs expectations of suppliersand how to use our supplier scorecard.
Module 3 sustainability issues related tospecific commodities.
In 2013, we rolled out this program toprocurement teams in all of our territories.All of our procurement managers workingdirectly with suppliers have now receivedthis training, enabling them to work withsuppliers to identify opportunities, furtherdrive our sustainability ambitions and helpbuild long-term supplier value.
75%of our procurement

Suppliers andSustainability
INTRODUCTION
We recognize that our suppliers are essential partners in oursustainability journey. From analyzing our water and carbon footprint,we found that our most significant environmental impacts occuroutside of our own business, in our value chain.
We believe collaboration and innovation throughout our supply chainare essential in advancing our sustainable growth. We want to inspireand drive sustainable change with those we work with as well asthrough our own organization. We have embedded sustainabilityinto our procurement processes and supplier relationships, and havedeveloped additional programs to support strategic opportunitiesfor collaboration.

SUPPLIERS AND SUSTAINABILITY
Bring suppliers togetherThis year we held our first ever suppliersustainability webinar as part of ourprocurement strategy. This was a greatopportunity to communicate ourexpectations and continue the dialoguewith our key suppliers. We want toencourage and help them to improve theirCRS performance and more specificallytheir carbon maturity, which is essential tohelp us reduce our carbon footprint acrossthe value chain.
Mlanie Leroy,
CCE Senior Manager, Strategic Procurement
A suppliers CRS Score is an important partof the SRM process, receiving the sameweighting as other SRM criteria. Outstandingperformance is recognized annually by ourSupplier of the Year awards. In 2013, our CRS
Supplier of the Year was one of our cold drinkequipment suppliers, ISA. Where the score islow, we work with the supplier to improvetheir score.
OUR PROCUREMENT PROCESSES
We have been working to embedsustainability criteria into all our procurementprocesses, from sourcing new suppliers totendering. We want to ensure that our
suppliers understand and adhere to ourown sustainability standards. To help us,we have a number of mechanisms in place.
Code of Business Conduct
Our Code of Business Conduct outlinesthe principles by which we operate withinCCE and how we work with our suppliers.The code is available on our website www.cokecce.com.
Supplier Guiding Principles
Our Supplier Guiding Principles (SGPs)set out the minimum requirements we
expect our suppliers to adhere to, includinglabor laws and regulations, health andsafety, human rights, environment andbusiness integrity (see below).
Our SGPs reflect and communicate ourown principles and emphasize theimportance of responsible workplacepolicies and practices, respect for humanrights and environmental protection.
SGPs are included in all new contractsand are being incorporated into currentmulti-year contracts during renewal. In 2013,
67 percent of our spend with suppliers wascovered by contracts containing our SGPs.The Coca-Cola Company works withindependent third-party auditors to regularlymonitor the SGP compliance of companieswhich supply to the Coca-Cola System. Inthe last three years, they have undertaken aseries of audits including over two thirds ofCoca-Cola Enterprises suppliers ofingredients and packaging.
Together with The Coca-Cola Company,CCE is a member of the AIM-PROGRESSforum a global group promoting
responsible sourcing practices and auditprogram design to align supplier audits andreduce duplication and costs for suppliers.Our audits are aligned with the forum andare recognized by its members. Similarly,
we recognize audits carried out on behalfof other signatory companies.
In 2013, we adopted The Coca-ColaCompanys Sustainable Agriculture GuidingPrinciples for suppliers of sugar beet andsugar cane as part of our sustainableagriculture program. We are now developingbespoke tools to support our sustainablesourcing strategy. (For more information seeFactsheet 23.)
OUR SUPPLIERS
Our aim is to work with our suppliers to
encourage them to improve their ownsustainability performance.
Our Supplier Relationship Management(SRM) process underpins the managementof our relationships with our key suppliers,helping to build collaboration and providemanagement focus. We use a frameworkto evaluate each suppliers performancebased on quality, cost and value, serviceand innovation, and corporate responsibilityand sustainability (CRS).
The CRS evaluation comprises two inputs:
Sustainability rating from an independentcompany, EcoVadis.
Results from our suppliers carbonchallenge.
EcoVadis
EcoVadis evaluates our suppliers on fourareas environmental, social, ethicaland supply chain management andundertakes a 360 degree review of theorganization. In collaboration with oursuppliers, this information is used to developaction plans to help them raise their ratingand create risk reduction plans.
Carbon Challenge
Our Carbon Challenge supports our carboncommitment. This three-stage program isdesigned to prioritize efforts and encouragesuppliers to progress along each stage oftheir carbon management journey.
The challenge starts by encouraging eachorganization to measure and manage itscarbon footprint, then to develop carbonimprovement plans and finally to sharecarbon information. Suppliers are directedtowards particular stages of the challenge to
reflect the carbon classification assigned tothe commodity or service they provide low,medium or high impact (see CCEs CarbonChallenge Process).

Supplier spotlight
In 2013, we held a virtualsupplier sustainability meeting andwebinar to bring together our keysuppliers and continue our CRScollaboration and innovation dialogue.
More than 140 suppliers and 300 peopleparticipated in the meeting, whichfocused on sharing experiences andsupplier examples to showcase howorganizations have improved theirsustainability performance andcarbon footprint.
To extend and continue our discussions,we launched our online sustainabilityhub. Hosted by 2degrees, a sustainabilitynetwork organization, the hub hasenabled us to share and collaborateacross our value chain even further.
Supplier Guiding Principles
Our SGPs outline minimum requirementsand address the following key areas:
Laws and regulations
Child labor
Forced labor
Abuse of labor
Freedom of association andcollective bargaining
Discrimination
Wages and benefits Work hours and overtime
Health and safety

THOUGHT LEADERSHIP
In 2013, we worked with the EconomistIntelligence Unitto explore how seniorbusiness leaders view the sustainabilitystrategies and commitments thatbusinesses are making and tounderstand what the key driversand barriers to success have been.
Sustainability Insights Learning from
Business Leaders 1highlighted that manycompanies are moving forward with theirsustainability activities, despite the recenteconomic downturn. The research alsohighlighted that:
Technology is proving to be a powerfulsustainability driver.
Leading companies are turning toa broader form of collaboration.
Innovative and disruptive businessmodels have the potential to impactthe way mainstream business
operates and address social andenvironmental challenges.
Building the right business caseremains challenging due to concernsabout the perceived high cost andlack of rate of return.
Our work with the Economist IntelligenceUnithas been important in highlighting theopportunities that exist as we progress onour sustainability journey.
INTRODUCTION
Innovate for the Future is one of three strategic priorities withinour sustainability plan. We are making good progress towards manyof our sustainability targets. However, we recognize that the sizeand scale of the sustainability challenges we face will require industryleaders to accelerate progress at a faster rate. We need to drive newopportunities for innovation, collaboration and partnership and inspirepeople to think differently both inside and outside our company.
OUR STRATEGY
We are focused on solutions that will take us beyond our four wallsbenefiting ourselves, broader industry and society as a whole through:
Thought leadership to explore and develop solutions to new issuesand challenges.
Collaboration and engagement with suppliers, customers andother stakeholders to drive innovation and unlock new ideasand opportunities.
Accelerating the pace of change by developing and harnessinginnovation and technology.

INNOVATE FOR THE FUTURE
COLLABORATION
The next era of sustainable business will bedefined by more meaningful collaboration with businesses working alongsidegovernment and civil society to identify the
innovation that is required for sustainability.We recognize that we are unable to meetour sustainability commitments by actingalone. In the search for solutions, we will bemore effective by looking outside our ownoperations and by working in partnershipacross our entire value chain. For thisreason, collaboration runs through allour sustainability activities.
As part of our Recycle for the Futureprogram, we continue to forge partnershipsto increase recycling. We have workedclosely with the University of Exeter to
understand recycling behavior and havelaunched a recycling challenge in partnershipwith OpenIDEO (see case study below).
Supplier collaboration is also a keycomponent of our sustainability strategy,whether in pursuit of low-carbon innovationwithin our manufacturing plants or indeveloping energy-efficient vendorsand coolers.
We are also working closely withmany different NGOs and communityorganizations. Projects include our river
replenishment work in Great Britain with
WWF-UK (see Factsheet 22) and our activelifestyle partnerships with the NorwegianRed Cross, the Swedish SwimmingFederation and Special Olympics (seeFactsheet 11).
ACCELERATING THE PACE OF CHANGE
Given the scale of the sustainabilitychallenges we face, we recognize theimportance of accelerating the pace ofchange. This will include consideration of howwe can use innovative new business models.
To support our commitment to reduce thecarbon footprint of the drink in your handby a third and to create a step-change inrecycling in two of our markets, we haveestablished two new joint business ventures.
Working with ECOPlastics in Great Britain
and APPE in France, we have invested over$18 million to create two new state of the artrecycling plants, Continuum in Great Britainand Infineo in France. As a result, at the endof 2013, we were able to include an averageof 32 percent recycled plastic (rPET) in ourPET bottles (see Factsheet 20).
We have also furthered our waterstewardship agenda by trialing innovativenew water-saving technologies includingthe use of electro-chemically activated waterand dry and semi-dry lubricants on ourmanufacturing lines (see Factsheet 21).

CASE STUDY
Sustainability Innovation Summit
In October 2013, we held our firstSustainability Innovation Summit,inviting an international group ofinfluential stakeholders to explorehow business can use innovation andtechnology, embrace new business
models and think differently as partof the shift to a low-carbon economy.
The event was attended by more than250 delegates including policy-makers,NGOs and industry leaders. Attendeesheard from a range of entrepreneurialand pioneering speakers from theEllen MacArthur Foundation, McKinsey& Co., Goldman Sachs, IBM andSalesforce.com.
The Summit explored howorganizations can drive the next era of
sustainable business and the importantrole that collaboration will have to play.
Our keynote speaker, Peter Schwartzfrom Salesforce.com, also highlightedthe important role of technology. Hesaid, The question of how we deploytechnology is quite fundamental to thequestion of sustainability.
Summit breakout sessions exploredtopics directly related to CCEs corebusiness including packaging of thefuture and how to drive consumerbehavior change on recycling.
The Summit provided an importantopportunity for CCE to hold a widerdiscussion about the role of businessand enable like-minded organizationsto share ideas and exploreopportunities for collaboration.
Today, we are responsible for workingoutside of conventional boundaries andconvening and leading a conversationthat will help to shape the future of ourbusiness and also the world aroundus, said Hubert Patricot, Executive
Vice President and President, EuropeanGroup, Coca-Cola Enterprises.
Video highlights from the Summit canbe found on www.cokecce.com
We will hold our second SustainabilityInnovation Summit in October 2014.
CASE STUDY
Recycle for the Future
Recycling is something in which everyonehas a role to play. It is arguably one of theeasier ways to contribute to protecting theenvironment. However, recycling rates intwo of our territories Great Britain andFrance still fall short of the Europeanaverage.
In 2013, we commissioned the Universityof Exeter to undertake a pioneeringsix-month study into recycling behaviors inthe home. The study observed 20households in Great Britain and France to
help understand the barriers to at-homerecycling. The study discovered that:
People dont make conscious decisionsabout recycling.
New thinking is required to helppeople form new habits.
Better information is needed toaddress common misconceptionsabout recycling.
There is an opportunity to leveragethe power of community throughdigital communication to encouragenew recycling habits.
In April 2014, we used the findings fromthis work to launch a new online recyclingchallenge in partnership with OpenIDEO,an online open innovation platform.
The partnership enabled CCE to drawinspiration from a wide variety of sourcesand generate a range of ideas andsolutions to encourage consumerrecycling at home.
Ideas will be evaluated by the OpenIDEOonline community and an Expert AdvisoryPanel, including representatives from
Casino, WRAP and Fostplus. We aim toselect at least one winning idea to bring tolife through a prototype, field-test or fullproject launch.

ProductPortfolio
In 2013,in Great Britain, welaunched Sprite withstevia, a zero-calorie
sweetener from naturalorigins, reducing the
sugar content by 30%.
OUR COMMITMENT
We will provide a wide variety of quality, refreshing beverageswith nutritional and ingredient information so consumers canmake informed beverage choices.
INTRODUCTION
We are fully engaged in the debate on obesity and the healthand well-being of the communities in which we operate. Whileno single food or drink is responsible for obesity, all caloriescount, including those in our products.
Obesity is a complicated problem. We are committed to playingour part and helping people find the right energy balance in theirdaily lives, balancing calories consumed and calories burned. Weare taking action by providing a wide range of product choices,including no- and low-calorie beverages in a variety of packagingsizes with clear nutritional information. We are also helping peopleto get active (see Factsheet 11).
OUR STRATEGY
Our product portfolio strategy hasthree priorities:
Offering greater choice: we areintroducing new products, reducingcalories and sugar across our rangeof products and raising awareness ofno- and low-calorie alternatives.
Providing more information: being openabout the calories and ingredients in ourproducts through clear guideline dailyamount labeling (see Factsheet 10).
Ensuring that our products are sold andmarketed responsibly (see Factsheet 10).
DEVELOPING OUR PORTFOLIO
We manufacture and distribute beveragesowned by other companies. To ensure asuccessful, balanced portfolio, we workwith The Coca-Cola Company and our otherbrand owners to develop and introduce newproducts and package sizes in line with ourstrategy. We try to ensure that each outlethas a range of choices available.
Our core sparkling brands such as Coca-Cola,Fanta and Sprite represent 29 percent ofthe products in our portfolio. We also havea wide range of no- and low-calorie softdrinks from Diet Coke, Coca-Cola Lightand Coca-Cola Zero to alternatives for themajority of our flavored drinks (nearly everyone of our full-sugar sparkling soft drinkshas a low-calorie alternative). The rest ofour portfolio consists of categories suchas waters, sports drinks, functional watersand energy drinks.
19%of our products arein small portion sizes(250ml packs or less)
54%of our full-sugarbrands haveno- or low-caloriealternatives1
1 CCEs full sugar brands, excluding water and hot drinks. Including water and hot drinks brands, this equals 56%. Our most popular
sugar brands (Coca-Cola, Fanta, Sprite) all have low-calorie alternatives and together these make up 90% of CCEs volume.

Another way we help consumers tomanage their calorie intake is to offer ourdrinks in smaller packages. 19 percent ofour products are now available in units ofless than 250ml, such as our 150ml cans,and we are looking to increase these smallerpackaging choices. In 2012, we introducedpocket-sized 375ml Coca-Cola, Diet Cokeand Coca-Cola Zero bottles to be soldalongside our 500ml bottles. In 2013,we launched a new 250ml can to help
consumers manage their calories (see casestudy below).
We have also limited our cup sizes forfountain beverages in France and Belgium,where we no longer sell branded cupslarger than 500ml in restaurants, leisureparks and most cinemas.
We continue to increase these percentagesby introducing reformulated versions of ourpopular drinks, by expanding sales ofour existing low-calorie products, and byensuring that no- and low-calorie products
are consistently distributed alongside ourregular soft drinks.
Since the European Union approved theuse of the naturally sourced, zero-caloriesweetener, stevia, in 2011, we have startedto use it in products such as Sprite andGLACEAU vitaminwater. We wil l continue toexplore opportunities to expand our portfoliousing stevia.
In 2013, no- and low-calorie reformulationsof existing products and additions whichhelp us to promote healthy choices included:
Sprite with stevia in Great Britain. Monster Absolute Zero.
GLACEAU vitaminwater, reformulatedwith stevia for 30 percent less sugar,and more recently with zero calories.
Since 2012, the Coca-Cola System inGreat Britain has voluntarily supportedthe British Governments calorie reductioninitiative, alongside a number of leadingfood retailers, restaurant chains and foodand drinks manufacturers. The initiative is akey part of the Public Health ResponsibilityDeal, enabling the Government, industry and
health groups to work together to tacklecomplex health challenges such as obesity.We have pledged that we will reduce the

We offer a wide product and packagingchoice so that people can decide whichof our beverages best meet their needsand lifestyles and we work with TheCoca-Cola Company to encourage peopleto make choices which balance theirnutritional needs.
The Coca-Cola Company is also using thepower and reach of its advertising to raiseawareness and provide information about
the calories in our products and what peopleneed to do to expend these. The 2013 Be OKadvertisement puts calories front and centerof brand communications to consumers,conveying that each can of Coca-Cola has139 calories and giving examples of some ofthe physical activities needed to burn theseoff, as well as promoting Coca-Cola Zero asa no-calorie alternative. The Grandfatheradvertisement encouraged our consumersto adopt a balanced lifestyle by taking thestairs and eating smaller portions, as ourgrandparents used to do.
The Coca-Cola Company will continue topromote the importance of energy balanceand active lifestyles in its 2014 advertising,particularly in conjunction with Coca-Colassponsorship of the FIFA World Cup in Brazil.
At CCE we continue to invest with TheCoca-Cola Company to develop grassrootsactive lifestyle and sports programs in everymarket in which we operate to ensure weare helping people to get active in theircommunities (see Factsheet 11).

CASE STUDY
ESFA reconfirmationof aspartame safety
Low-calorie sweeteners, if usedconsistently to replace caloricsweeteners, can contribute to weightloss and maintenance, and areimportant tools in the effort to tackleobesity. Aspartame is one of thesweeteners we use in no- andlow-calorie products such as Diet Coke,Coca-Cola Light and Coca-Cola Zero.It has been used in many everydayproducts, including confectionery,yogurt and soft drinks, for more than30 years and is made from two aminoacids that are also found naturally inhigh-protein foods like eggs and meat.
In December 2013, the European FoodSafety Authority (EFSA) published itsopinion on aspartame after a thoroughassessment of scientific research onthe sweetener, answering a requestby the European Commission tore-evaluate all food additives by 2020.EFSA reconfirmed aspartame is safeand that there is no need to change thecurrent Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) foraspartame. This opinion aligns with thatof the World Health Organization andmore than 200 international studies,making it one of the most thoroughlytested ingredients.
