Production of "original" cola resumed in Turkmenistan

Coca-Cola production has resumed in Turkmenistan. Turkmenistan Coca-Cola Bottlers began distributing the popular beverage as "Classic" and "Zero" on the local market in early July.

New "colas" produced with the logo "Turkmenistan - the year of neutrality" are sold in the market almost 3 times cheaper than imported ones. Thus, locally produced "Classic" cola is available at a retail price of 10 manat per 1 liter, "Zero" - 8 manat per 1 liter.

In recent years, the local manufacturer of the popular beverage has temporarily suspended production of the aforementioned types. Note that the company, also, began production of the equally popular "Sprite" in 2019.

In 2009, 59.5% shares of Türkmenistan Coca-Cola Bottlers went to the Turkish company Coca-Cola İçecek (CCI).

Arzuw NEWS contacted the CCI office in Turkey, but has not yet received answers to questions about resumed production in Turkmenistan.

    • Where is it available? In Russia, 1.5L costs $1.5, and here $2.5 for 1 liter.

  • Where do they sell it? At the wholesaler, in supermarkets - only Russian, Kazakh and Azerbaijani. Where exactly can you buy it? I'll make a special trip. It's not even about price - our cola tastes better!

  • Dudes, it says what is available for a certain price, namely 10 manat. Not that the price is affordable, i.e., everyone can afford it.
