Adam Griggs reposted thisOur latest commercial… #America250 The Coca-Cola CompanyAdam Griggs reposted thisDrink In America More often than not, a moment chooses a person (and not vice versa). For most of us trying to polish a brand like Coca-Cola just a bit more every day, the moment - 250 years of USA - caught us. A privilege that we all take with humility. Crafting this message was a labor of passion, reflection, authenticity and perseverence. Crafting this was all about craft. Every word. Every sound. Every moment! This is an attempt to contribute just a verse to the incredible history of this glorious nation. Thanks to our incredibly talented creative & brand team, our partners at WPP and many others who shaped this work in small and big ways.

Adam Griggs reposted thisAdam Griggs reposted thisI had the opportunity to visit Atlanta last week, where I met with some of our dedicated store associates and also attended The Coca-Cola Company's "One System" meeting. I was excited to share Walmart's priorities with the group and highlight the critical role suppliers like Coca-Cola play in helping us serve even more customers faster. It was great to engage with Coca-Cola's bottlers and discuss the supply chain, service model, and strategic innovations that will be essential for meeting the evolving needs of our customers in the future. As we continue to shape the future of retail, I'm grateful for the partnership and collaboration with suppliers like Coca-Cola that will help us stay ahead of the curve and deliver exceptional value to our customers.

Adam Griggs reposted thisThank You to Seth Dallaire, Latriece Watkins, John Laney, Melody Richard, and Will McDonald for the opportunity to reflect on our shared partnership journey and on how our innovation strategy around technology and data continues to help modernize the customer experience.

Adam Griggs liked thisAdam Griggs liked thisA milestone is worth celebrating. A mission worth continuing matters even more. It was a privilege to mark NextUp’s 25th anniversary and to see The Coca-Cola Company continue to stand behind a mission centered on developing leaders and building a community where more people can thrive. As a founding member, Coca-Cola has remained committed to that mission for 25 years, a commitment carried forward by generations of leaders and ambassadors across our Company. As fellow NextUp Board members, Dagmar Boggs and I have had a close view of what is possible when leaders invest not only in their own success, but in the success and potential of others. I am especially grateful to the many Coca-Cola ambassadors and leaders who bring this partnership to life through their time, advocacy, and commitment. Twenty-five years is a meaningful milestone. Just as important is the work still ahead. Proud that Coca-Cola continues to be a part of that work. Honored to celebrate the NextUp community that continues to move it forward. #BuiltForThis #NextUpIsNow #NextUp25th #NextUpLW26 #CocaColaNextUpLW26 #CocaCola Lisa Baird Dagmar Boggs Barbara Poremba Brigid McGovern Amye Michalek Adam Francis Roshni Ved Katie Rollins DelSignore Katie Grabosky Audrey McCracken Hanna Jon Lewis Eileen Thanner

Adam Griggs liked this$85 billion in annual economic impact. Nearly 1 million jobs supported. $177 million invested in community programs. $10 billion in planned U.S. infrastructure investment through 2030. The numbers are significant. But the bigger story is what sits behind them. For more than 140 years, Coca-Cola has grown alongside the communities we serve. Leading North America Retail, I see every day that scale alone does not create impact. Partnership does. Our customers, bottling partners, suppliers, and communities help create jobs, strengthen local businesses, and build economic opportunity across America. Scale creates opportunity. Partnership turns it into impact. Proud of what we contribute today and energized by what we can continue to build together. The Coca-Cola Company #localcommunities #privilegetoserve #locallymade #nationallylovedAdam Griggs liked thisIn local economies and communities across America, impact takes shape every day. Today, we're sharing the results of our new, independently verified U.S. Economic & Community Impact assessment, highlighting how the Coca-Cola system serves as a powerful engine for American economic growth while supporting opportunity at the local level. Powered by 61 independent bottling partners, local suppliers and businesses of all sizes, our system contributed $85 billion to U.S. GDP in 2025, supported nearly one million jobs, and kept 98 cents of every beverage dollar circulating in the American economy. Together with funding support from The Coca-Cola Foundation and The Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation, the Coca-Cola system also contributed $177 million to U.S. community programs rooted in shared opportunity and resilience. These findings reflect the power of a locally rooted system operating at a national scale, supporting jobs, strengthening communities and helping drive economic growth across all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico.

Adam Griggs liked thisAdam Griggs liked thisI've always believed that the best partnerships create value far beyond the transaction. Incredibly proud of The Coca-Cola Company ‘s system, as we generate $58.7 billion in economic activity and support 860,000 jobs across the United States. Behind every number are local communities, family-owned businesses, restaurants, retailers, suppliers, bottlers, and countless people whose success is connected to ours.  Creating value beyond beverages has never been more important, and it's a privilege to be part of a system that contributes to America's economic growth every day. #EconomicImpact #CustomerValue #Growth #CocaCola https://lnkd.in/eKE825HR

Adam Griggs liked thisAdam Griggs liked thisEleven years ago I joined a smaller Cincinnati company built around an unusual idea: hire the people everyone else screens out. Recently, I stepped away from Nehemiah Manufacturing Company after eleven amazing years. Bittersweet doesn't quite cover it. Thank you to Daniel Meyer, who built something genuinely rare and trusted me to help grow this powerful mission. And thank you to the Nehemiah Family — I watched people rebuild their lives (from surviving to thriving) all while the business grew exponentially. Anyone who tells you those two things are in tension has never worked at a place that proved otherwise. Building brands. Creating jobs. Changing lives. Being a part of this incredible mission has truly changed my life, and it isn't something I'm leaving behind — it's the standard I'm taking with me. To everyone who has reached out recently: thank you. It means more than you know. On to the next chapter. More to come soon.

Newell Brands cuts 900 workers, closes Yankee Candle stores Newell Brands plans to lay off more than 900 employees—about 10% of its professional and clerical workforce—as part of a cost-saving initiative, The Wall Street Journal reports. The company, which makes Sharpie markers and Coleman camping supplies, will also close about 20 Yankee Candle stores in North America. The restructuring is expected to incur charges of up to $90 million but aims to save as much as $130 million annually. Newell has been struggling with declining sales and rising costs from tariffs and inflation. #morelayoffs #badtiming #thankstariffs

Conagra Brands reports declines in net sales and profits in Q1 fiscal 2026 as it works to restore service levels. 📉 The company said operational efforts to rebuild retailer service levels weighed on near‑term results, contributing to the drop in both sales and earnings. 🏭🛒 The recovery work remains a near‑term focus as Conagra seeks to stabilize shelf availability and rebuild retailer relationships. The quarter highlights the short‑term trade‑offs CPG companies face when prioritizing service recovery over immediate profitability. https://lnkd.in/gRk6vUsd #ConagraBrands #CPG #PackagedFoods #SupplyChain #RetailGrocery #FoodIndustry #Earnings
