Shareholder Benefit Program
Shareholder Benefit Program
Due to business conditions and other factors, in March 2020 the Company discontinued its shareholder benefit program, which provided mainly Company products to shareholders. However, with the Company's current business performance steadily progressing in line with the Strategic Business Plan “Vision 2028” and ability to deliver shareholder benefits at lower shipping costs by fully utilizing Coke ON® drink tickets, the decision has been made to reintroduce the shareholder benefit program in a new form. This is in addition to measures announced in November 2024, namely dividend increases and a share repurchase.
The Company believes that having our shareholders hold our shares over the medium to long term and fostering greater appreciation for the Company and Coca-Cola products will contribute to an increase in corporate value. The Company will continue to strive to be an attractive choice for investment.
