Coca-Cola FEMSA Informs About Recent Events in Rio Grande do Sul

 

Mexico City, Mexico – May 10, 2024 – Coca-Cola FEMSA, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV: KOFL; NYSE: KOF) (the “Company”, or “we”), informs that after this week’s floods affecting the southern state of Rio Grande do Sul in Brazil, the Company has suspended operations in its plant of Porto Alegre. We are in contact with the vast majority of our personnel in the region with, fortunately, no reported casualties.

 

The Company is now assessing the timing and investments needed to reopen this facility, as well as alternatives to supply product and receive support from its other operations in Brazil and adjacent territories. Based on current estimates, the Company does not expect to suffer a material financial impact derived from this incident.

 

At this moment the top priority of the Company is the safety and wellbeing of our employees and their families, as well as providing support to local communities.
