Speaking about his vision for Coca-Cola Pakistan, Volkan Öngüç said, “I believe Pakistan is a country of immense potential with over $1 billion invested in the country by the Coca-Cola System. This is truly a second home and has many similarities with my home country Türkiye, such as our love for music. I witnessed it with the launch of Coke Studio Season 15, the iconic musical platform showcasing the incredible talent and diversity of Pakistani music and culture. Coca-Cola Pakistan is as local as it gets; from Turkey-owned Coca-Cola Içecek8217;s operations; to hiring locally, to local raw materials and working with the sugarcane farmers. Our community investments this year will focus on water – both replenishment and clean drinking water for the millions we serve across the country. I want to thank the people here for warmly welcoming me. I now consider myself an honorary Pakistani.”;
