Every visit to the Coca-Cola Christmas Truck will also count towards supporting those experiencing food poverty. The theme this year is Your Presence is Your Present as Coca-Cola Great Britain will donate the equivalent of up to 100,000 meals to those in need throughout the festive season.
Laura Moon, Coca-Cola Company, Great Britain’s senior brand manager, said: “Coca-Cola has always been synonymous with Christmas, particularly the iconic Truck tour and Holidays Are Coming advert. This year, the magic of Christmas is needed more than ever, and we are excited to bring back our famous truck tour to fans nationwide.”
For every person who attends the Coca-Cola Truck Tour, Coca-Cola Great will fund the equivalent of one meal for a person in need. Kickstarting the ambition, the equivalent of 100,000 meals have already been donated to FareShare by Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, with the ambition of funding the total equivalent of 200,000 meals.
Lindsay Boswell, FareShare’s chief executive officer, said: “We’re incredibly grateful for the support from Coca-Cola. Their donation will help us get more good-to-eat surplus food to people across the UK most impacted by the cost of living crisis. We hope as many people visit the Coca-Cola Truck Tour this Christmas so that we can get more food to people who need it during what are challenging times for many.”
