Description

CCE (Coca Cola Erfrischungsgetränke), the largest German bottler of Coca Cola products, is owned by three German companies and The Coca Cola Company (35%). On 14 February 2007, the company announced its plans to implement a restructuring programme to return to profits. CCE, which currently employs a total workforce of 9,300 people across 65 German locations, is planning to create 300 new sales jobs by the end of 2007. In order to increase the number of customers among beverage retailers, both the sales staff and the marketing budget will grow.
