Coca-Cola Becomes National Partner of Special Olympics

We are very pleased to announce the partnership with Coca-Cola. As a National Partner, Coca-Cola supports the mission of Special Olympics to promote people with intellectual disabilities through sport and to advance social inclusion.

This important partnership underscores Coca-Cola’s long-standing social commitment to equality, diversity and tolerance in society. After the Coca-Cola Company has supported Special Olympics at a global level since its foundation, this commitment is now being supplemented in Switzerland at a national level. As a proud partner, Coca-Cola will not only provide financial support, but above all, through various initiatives, will bring the issue of inclusion through sport into the social spotlight.

“We at Coca-Cola are proud to support Special Olympics Switzerland as a National Partner,” explains Reyn ffoulkes of Coca-Cola Switzerland. “This partnership is a matter close to our hearts and represents a synergy with our values and our commitment to diversity and inclusion.” Bruno Barth, Managing Director of Special Olympics Switzerland, comments: “We are very pleased about the partnership with Coca-Cola and are convinced that together we can achieve great things. Especially with a view to the Special Olympics Winter Games, which will take place in Switzerland in 2029, we can expand our program thanks to the support of Coca-Cola and offer even more athletes the opportunity to realize their dreams.”
