We integrate innovation to offer a broad product portfolio

At Coca-Cola Andina, suppliers are a fundamental part of our value chain. Therefore, we seek to foster ongoing collaboration and communication with each of them.

Sustainable sourcing plan

This initiative, reviewed and approved by the Company’s senior management, is based on the principles set forth in The Coca-Cola Company’s Supplier Guiding Principles and on Coca-Cola Andina’s internal policies, including the Supplier and Third-Party Code of Ethics, the Corporate Procurement Policy, and the Coca-Cola Andina Human Rights Policy.

Recognizing the importance of aligning on sustainability matters, the Company has incorporated Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria into its bidding processes, assigning them a specific weighting that influences the final evaluation. This approach, which has also been formalized through the updated Supplier and Third-Party Code of Ethics, together with spending, criticality, and supply chain risk analyses, enables the Company to prioritize suppliers and allocate resources more efficiently to advance its sustainable sourcing strategy with each of them.

To ensure ongoing monitoring and oversight, the Company conducts training sessions and workshops with its key suppliers to align knowledge, jointly implement improvement plans, and provide technical support. In this regard, during 2025, the Company held 11 Sustainable Sourcing training sessions for buyers and suppliers, continuing the work carried out in previous years.

In addition, the Company conducts on-site audits performed by accredited and independent external parties, complemented by surveys that allow it to assess adherence to ESG principles and identify risks associated with the products and services provided by suppliers.

Every year, the Sustainable Sourcing Committee is held in person, bringing together procurement managers from the four operations along with buyers. This forum not only enables teams to define medium- and long-term plans, but also reinforces the role of buyers as the main ambassadors of the ESG practices implemented by the Company with its suppliers.

 Supplier Management

Suppliers are expected to comply with the minimum standards of conduct established by the Company and must act in good faith while complying with all applicable legal, administrative, and regulatory requirements in the countries where they operate.

Accordingly, the Company prohibits suppliers from engaging in any activities related to money laundering, terrorist financing, or bribery involving public officials. It also encourages suppliers, through various communication channels, to report any potential conflicts of interest that may arise during a negotiation process.

 Critical supplier audits

Audits of critical suppliers (Tier 1) are conducted using a SMETA-type methodology developed by The Coca-Cola Company, with the objective of assessing compliance with the Supplier Guiding Principles.

In addition, ingredient suppliers are required to adhere to the Sustainable Agriculture Guiding Principles. In this context, during 2025, 35.45% of the sugar used by the Company was certified under Bonsucro, an international standard that promotes the responsible production of sugarcane, while 100% of the soy sourced came from RTRS-certified suppliers (Round Table on Responsible Soy), a global initiative that promotes sustainable cultivation practices.

During 2025, nine cases of non-compliance with minor adverse impacts were identified. Improvement plans were implemented in each case, enabling suppliers to address and overcome these impacts while avoiding their exclusion from the supply chain. The Company does not have indirect critical suppliers (Tier 2).

 Supply Risk Management

Risk monitoring processes, which incorporate country-specific risks, enable the Company to identify its most relevant and critical suppliers and subsequently assess them based on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria.

This approach aims to mitigate risks associated with commodity suppliers, particularly those related to the structure of the supply chain for key raw materials, labor conditions, resource intensity, energy consumption, and emissions.

Coca-Cola Andina applies the Kraljic Matrix to classify suppliers according to their impact on the business and supply risk, distinguishing among strategic, critical, leverage, and non-critical suppliers.

As part of this process, the Company incorporates ESG criteria to assess the sustainability, ethics, and compliance performance of each supplier. This enables Coca-Cola Andina to prioritize strategic relationships with suppliers that not only ensure supply continuity, but also demonstrate responsible performance aligned with the Company’s sustainability commitments.
