Coca-Cola Beverages Africa (CCBA) and Genpact announced they are partnering to accelerate CCBA's competitive growth. The partnership is aimed at streamlining CCBA's operations, leveraging Genpact's deep process expertise, combined with digital technology and analytics, to enable real-time business decision making. Genpact will establish a multi-function, digitally enabled shared services organization to centralize and automate CCBA's finance, procurement, data management, and other functions, to create intelligent operations that improve customer service and allow CCBA to focus more on its core business. The initial phase of the multi-year engagement involves CCBA's South Africa operations, and is expected to expand to other countries in Africa. CCBA employees in South Africa working in the areas covered by the partnership will transfer to Genpact, with new career path prospects that take advantage of Genpact's expertise in finance and process transformation. Genpact will open a second delivery center in Johannesburg, South Africa, expanding its footprint in the country from its existing sites in Johannesburg and Durban.
