LONDON, November 15 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

We are proud to announce that Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP) has been 
listed on the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) ( 
https://www.spglobal.com/spdji/en/documents/indexnews/announcements/20211112-1445046/1445046_pr-2021djsireviewresults.pdf 
) – the world's leading business sustainability benchmark – for the sixth year 
running.

In total, over 5,000 companies were evaluated for inclusion. CCEP will be 
listed on both the DJSI World and DJSI Europe Indices, and received a maximum 
score in areas including Packaging, Environmental Policy & Environmental 
Reporting, Social Reporting, Policy Influence and Innovation Management.

Sustainability remains a key priority for our business. Our continued listing 
on the DJSI and Net Zero 2040 ambition ( 
https://www.cocacolaep.com/sustainability/this-is-forward/action-on-climate/ ), 
is testament to CCEP putting environmental impact at the heart of its decision 
making.

Damian Gammell, Chief Executive Officer of CCEP, said: "Taking bold action on 
sustainability is urgent and pressing -- for society and for business. We take 
this seriously at CCEP, and the DJSI helps hold us accountable for making 
tangible progress. The world needs industry to go further and faster, and we 
will continue to push ourselves to accelerate where we can make a difference."

Through our sustainability action plan This is Forward, we are taking action on 
six key social and environmental areas – drinks (https://bit.ly/2tq1L1Q ), 
packaging (https://bit.ly/2rT2UKS ), society (https://bit.ly/2IvTaNV ), water 
(https://bit.ly/2GvpgaC ), climate (https://bit.ly/2IOqwLg)  and supply chain.

The DJSI, including the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI World), were 
launched in 1999 as the pioneering series of global sustainability benchmarks 
available in the market. The index family is comprised of global, regional and 
country benchmarks.

The DJSI World applies a transparent, rules-based constituent selection process 
based on the companies' S&P Global ESG Score resulting from the annual S&P 
Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA). The CSA consists of a 
rigorous questionnaire assessing both public and non-public data submitted by 
participating companies. This year, more than 10,000 publicly traded companies 
were invited to participate in the S&P Global CSA.
