Today, Coca-Cola Beverages Czech Republic (CCB), member of Coca-Cola HBC Group is a sole Coca-Cola franchise operator for the Czech market. It is a total beverage company, producing, distributing and selling all categories of non-alcohol drinks.

In the Czech Republic, CCB operates one production facility in Kyje and 10 sales and administration centres around the country. The production, distribution and sales of its beverages directly gives an employment to almost 1300 people. The heart of the Coca-Cola Beverages Czech Republic production is located in Prague’s Kyje district, where the company operates its bottling plant.
