What happened
Coca-Cola Bebidas de Colombia and Industria Nacional de Gaseosas, the Colombian bottlers for Coca-Cola FEMSA, announced they were leaving the Chamber of the Beverage Industry within ANDI. This decision was effective upon receipt of the letter. Separately, three sugar-industry firms—Incauca, Ingenio Providencia, and Sucroal—also informed ANDI they were departing.
