CCSWB is all about our Heroes! On October 4th, we hosted the 2nd annual CCSWB Service Anniversary Gala at the Hilton Anatole in Dallas, Texas. We were excited to honor heroes who have been a part of our team for 30+ years and has laid the foundation for our company’s culture. Our favorite part of the evening? Watching so many family members celebrate the accomplishments of their loved ones. The celebration included a live band, dancing, a delectable dinner and associates receiving an award for their tenured service.

In Austin, the vibrant capital city of Texas, the glory days of the American Frontier collide with a present-day culture thriving on blazing new trends and being the epicenter of “weird”.

In Tyler, Texas, where everyone seems to know each other, Coca-Cola isn't just a drink - it's a crucial part of the community. From the iconic big red trucks to the bustling facility, everyone has a Coke story. Take Tommy Nichols, for example. He grew up down the road from the facility, held various roles including truck driver and is now Sales Center Manager of the facility. Nowadays, Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages offers training programs for drivers, like their CDL Academy. This helps drivers like Joseph Warren get the skills he needed to drive for them and support his family. See how in Tyler, it's clear: CCSWB and the community are as refreshing together as a cold Coke on a hot summer day. https://lnkd.in/gVhAwzzn #UnderTheCap #WhatConnectsUs

What stirs your memory? A smell? A song? A taste? For artist David Maldonado, he remembers listening to Los Panchos and other bolero Latin singers after his grandfather returned from his construction job. His grandma greeted him with a warm dinner and ice-cold Coca-Cola. Those memories and more inspired David in his creation of this artwork for Hispanic Heritage Month.
