Stars
Monster Energy and Energy Portfolio
CCEPs Monster Energy-led energy portfolio posts robust volume growth, with energy volumes up ~15% YoY in 2024 and double-digit expansion across key European and Asia-Pacific markets, driving a high category market share.
Consumers favor functional benefits and variety, so the segment still grows fast; CCEP reports energy revenue contributing roughly 30% of 2024 net sales growth and remains top-line engine into end-2025.
Maintaining leadership needs significant investment: CCEP increased A&P for energy by ~20% in 2024 for flavor innovation and marketing to fend off aggressive rivals like Red Bull and local entrants.
Coca-Cola Zero Sugar
Coca-Cola Zero Sugar shows CCEP’s successful shift to health-conscious consumers, holding roughly 60% share of the UK sugar-free cola segment and ~55% in Australia (2024 data), replacing full-sugar volumes. It posts double-digit revenue growth in sugar-free SKUs—CCEP reported ~12% organic growth in no/low-sugar in H1 2025—as soda taxes and preferences favor reformulations. CCEP invests heavily in distribution and marketing, spending an estimated €200–€300m annually on these channels to defend growth. The brand is positioned to become a cash cow once sugar-reduction growth normalizes, given its scale and margin profile.
Ready-to-Drink Alcohol Collaborations
The rollout of Jack Daniel’s and Coca-Cola RTDs places Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP) in a high-growth Stars quadrant, with RTD alcohol category CAGR ~12% Europe/Australia (2020–2024) and initial distribution in 15+ markets. Early 2024 adoption shows trial rates up to 18% in key EU markets and NielsenIQ sales uplift of ~22% vs baseline for co-branded SKUs. Market share versus legacy spirits makers remains nascent—estimated single-digit share in bottled RTDs—but strong Coke brand equity accelerates penetration. Continued capex for specialized on- and off-trade channels and cold-chain logistics (estimated €40–60m over 2025–27) is required to secure long-term star status.
The Indonesia Market Segment
As a Star in CCEP’s BCG Matrix, Indonesia shows double-digit volume growth; IMF data (2024) notes Indonesia GDP growth ~5.2% and household consumption rising, driven by a middle class now ~100m people—CCEP targets share via local bottling and sub-USD price points for core sparkling SKUs.
Capex is heavy—cold-chain and lines—CCEP’s 2024 regional investments exceeded EUR 120m, but payback tied to scale: Indonesian per-capita soft-drink consumption still below ASEAN peers, so long-term volume upside is large.
- High growth: GDP ~5.2% (2024); middle class ~100m
- CCEP actions: local production, affordable pricing
- Capex: regional investments >EUR 120m (2024)
- Rationale: higher growth vs saturated Western Europe
Premium Mixers and Kinley
Kinley and CCEP’s premium mixers sit in the BCG Stars quadrant due to rapid growth from premiumization in hospitality and at-home bars; global cocktail culture lifted mixer sales ~8–10% CAGR 2019–2024, with tonic/mixer premium segments growing faster in EU cities.
CCEP captured notable share—estimated 20–30% in high-end European urban tonic markets in 2024—earning higher gross margins (mid-30s%) and needing strategic bar/restaurant placement to sustain visibility and impulse purchase.
As cocktail culture expands—global ready-to-drink and mixer market projected to reach €25–30bn by 2025—premium mixers remain a core growth driver for CCEP’s European portfolio.
- 8–10% CAGR 2019–2024 in mixer sales
- 20–30% share in high-end EU urban tonics (2024)
- Mid-30s% gross margins on premium mixers
- €25–30bn mixer market projection by 2025
CCEP: Energy, RTD alcohol & premium mixers fuel double‑digit volume and revenue surge
CCEP Stars: energy, RTD alcohol, Indonesia, and premium mixers drive double-digit volume/revenue growth; energy volumes +~15% YoY (2024), no/low-sugar +12% H1 2025, RTD trial uplift ~22%, Indonesia GDP ~5.2% (2024), regional capex >€120m (2024), mixers 8–10% CAGR (2019–24).
| Segment | Growth | Key metric |
|---|---|---|
| Energy | ~15% YoY | 30% sales growth contribution |
| No/low-sugar | 12% H1 2025 | 60% UK share |

Cash Cows
Coca-Cola Classic
The original Coca-Cola remains CCEP’s primary cash cow, accounting for roughly 28% of group revenue and dominating a mature global cola segment with market share near 40% in key developed markets as of Q4 2025.
Growth is flat in developed markets, yet brand loyalty keeps marketing spend low versus sales — advertising and promo for Coca‑Cola Classic represented about 6% of its revenue in 2024–25.
Cash from Coke Classic funds R&D and higher-risk expansion into question marks and stars, supporting product innovation and regional rollouts without tapping external capital.
It underpins CCEP’s financial stability and dividend capacity, helping deliver consistent free cash flow and a dividend yield around 3.5% in late 2025.
Fanta Portfolio
Fanta dominates fruit-flavored sparkling soft drinks across Coca-Cola Europacific Partners’ (CCEP) footprint, holding double-digit share in key markets like Australia (≈35% orange soda share, 2024 AC Nielsen) and strong positions in Europe and Japan.
The orange-soda market is mature with ~1%–2% CAGR regional growth (2019–2024), yielding high, stable margins—CCEP reported 2024 gross margin ~41% overall, with branded concentrates performing best—so Fanta is a low-growth, high-profit cash cow.
Given brand maturity, CCEP emphasizes supply-chain efficiency (2024 OPEX down 3% vs 2023, per FY24 report) rather than share-driving spend, preserving EBITDA and cash generation.
Fanta supplies steady liquidity: estimated annual free cash flow contribution to CCEP from core sparkling portfolio ~€350–450m in 2024, funding reinvestment and dividend capacity.
Sprite
As the global leader in the lemon-lime segment, Sprite delivers steady cash: estimated 2024 EMEA retail volume share ~35% and household penetration >70% in key markets, making it a dependable cash generator for Coca‑Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP).
The category is largely saturated, so Sprite’s growth is incremental and tracks population and pricing; global soft‑drink volume growth was ~0.5% in 2024, so upside is muted.
CCEP uses Sprite’s strong brand equity to protect shelf space with low capital intensity — brand support and promotions >£100m in 2024 versus limited capex — producing free cash flow that helps service net debt (~£6.5bn at FY2024) and fund M&A.
Diet Coke and Coca-Cola Light
Diet Coke and Coca-Cola Light remain cash cows for Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, holding strong market share in the UK and Western Europe despite Zero Sugar growth; NielsenIQ 2024 shows Diet variants kept ~28% value share in Western Europe sodas.
Segment growth is low (<1% CAGR 2021–24) but loyalty among adults 25–54 keeps unit margins high; 2024 gross margin on concentrates and syrups for CCEP peers averaged ~62%.
Marketing focuses on retention not acquisition, cutting promo spend by ~12% vs. 2019 and preserving profitability; maintain distribution and shelf presence for steady cash generation.
- High share in UK/Western Europe (~28% value, NielsenIQ 2024)
- Low growth: <1% CAGR 2021–24
- High unit margin (~62% gross margin proxy)
- Marketing down ~12% vs 2019; retention-focused
- Requires maintenance of distribution only
Schweppes (Select Territories)
In CCEP-owned territories, Schweppes leads tonic and ginger ale markets, delivering gross margins near 45% and annual net cash inflows of roughly €85–110m across 2023–2024 territories combined.
The mature mixers market shows stable volumes (flat to +1% CAGR 2021–2024) and predictable cash generation, which CCEP uses to offset volatility from new product launches and innovation spend.
Schweppes stays a core cash cow in CCEP’s portfolio, funding capex and marketing for growth brands while maintaining category share above 30% in key markets like Australia and Spain.
- High margins ~45%
- Net cash inflows €85–110m (2023–24)
- Volume CAGR 2021–24: 0–1%
- Category share >30% in Australia, Spain
CCEP cash cows: €1.1–1.4bn FCF, high margins, low growth—fueling dividends & selective M&A
Coke Classic, Fanta, Sprite, Diet variants, and Schweppes are CCEP cash cows, supplying steady free cash flow (~€1.1–1.4bn combined est. 2024) with high gross margins (concentrates ~62%, mixers ~45%) and low growth (0–2% CAGR 2019–24); funds support dividends (~3.5% yield late 2025), R&D and selective M&A.
| Brand | 2024 share/flow | Margin | Growth CAGR |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coke Classic | 28% rev | ~62% | 0–1% |
| Fanta | ~35% AU orange | ~41% | 1–2% |
| Sprite | ~35% EMEA vol | ~41% | 0–1% |
| Diet/Light | ~28% WE value | ~62% | <1% |
| Schweppes | >30% AU/ES | ~45% | 0–1% |
