The beverage giant the Coca-Cola Company's performance in China continues to drive long-term growth as the company reports solid results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2025.

During the earnings call, Henrique Braun, executive vice-president and chief operating officer, said of the importance of the Chinese market, "We have China being one big market for us."

"We took a strategy there to build this for the long-term, and we continue to have a good inroad on the quality leadership on the core, and we continue to win in that. It's more of a long-term market, we continue to invest ahead of the curve," said Braun.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, Coca-Cola's global net operating revenues increased by 2 percent to $11.82 billion. The company's consolidated net income rose 5 percent to $2.32 billion.

For the full year 2025, the company achieved net operating revenues of $47.94 billion, up 2 percent, and consolidated net income of $13.14 billion, up 23 percent. The company's global unit case volume for the year remained flat year-over-year.

In China, the company continues to leverage deep local insights, focusing on consumer engagement during key cultural moments like the Spring Festival.

To mark the occasion, Coca-Cola China has rolled out the limited-edition "Year of the Horse Firework Can", blending traditional symbols with contemporary design elements such as firework motifs and embroidery art — furthering the brand's connection with Chinese consumers.

"Our performance in 2025 showed both the resilience and momentum that define our business," said James Quincey, chairman and CEO of the Coca-Cola Company. "Looking ahead, we will focus on executing our strategy even better and positioning our system for long-term success."
