culmination of a careful review during the past six months of each of our
business functions. The world in which we operate has changed dramatically,
and we must change to succeed. This realignment will better enable the Company
to serve the changing needs of its customers and consumers at the local
level and ensure that Coca-Cola complements the local culture in every community
where it is sold. Our success depends on our ability to make billions of
individual connections each day in every community around the world. With
the pace of change in global markets increasing every day, we have to redouble
our efforts to remain close to the customers and consumers we serve.
