The most serious of Coke’s many offenses is their implication in the murder of workers at their bottling plant in Columbia. SINALTRAINAL, the major union representing Coca-Cola workers in Columbia, has attempted to take Coca-Cola to court to hold them accountable for the numerous and credible reports that Coca-Cola bottling plant managers in Columbia not only allowed paramilitary death squads to murder, torture and kidnap SINALTRAINAL leaders and members in an effort to crush their union, but they financially supported and actively colluded with them to Read More

I agree with Ryan and given the explanation of the T.A. Coca-Cola is not just a soda brand. Most restaurants are contracted to Coca-Cola to serve it on tap and generate revenue for them (T.G.I.F., McDonald’s, etc.)
