Coca-Cola HBC AG, the parent company of the Nigerian Bottling Company Limited (NBC) and group bottler in 27 European countries said 2018 full year revenue grew by 2.1% to €6.7bn.
Sales growth was driven by a 4.2% volume growth across all segments, buoyed by Sparkling beverages. However, Italy and Nigeria saw volume declines, with the company faced with a competitive environment in Nigeria.
