Coca-Cola Bottlers Japan announces CSV targets

Coca-Cola Bottlers Japan Holdings (Headquarters in Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President Calin Dragan; hereafter "CCBJH") on August 7 announced "THE ROUTE to Shared Value", CCBJH's ESG-related initiatives and commitments toward creating shared value (CSV) with society, as an integral part of the five-year strategic business plan announced today. CCBJH Group has developed deep and long-lasting connections with the local communities in which we operate across Japan, and we consider these CSV goals to be important in demonstrating our responsibilities and commitments to creating shared value for our company and with society.

Under the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDG's)" put forward at the United Nations in 2015, companies are considered to have a responsibility for addressing social issues. Toward realization of a more sustainable future, CCBJH Group is promoting specific actions throughout the Group while placing "Creating Shared Value" at the center of its actions.

"THE ROUTE to Shared Value" addresses CCBJH's commitments in the areas of Environment, Society and Governance (ESG). This includes our strong commitment toward creating a "World Without Waste", new environmental targets announced by Coca-Cola (Japan) Company, Ltd. on July 12, 2019. The Coca-Cola system in Japan is undertaking activities built on the three pillars of "Design, Collect, and Partner" to resolve the problem of packaging waste, and we aspire to become a model case for plastic resource recycling in the world by deepening collaboration with excellent resource recycling schemes in Japan.
