Fitch Ratings has affirmed Coca-Cola İcecek's ("CCI") Long-Term Foreign-Currency and Long-Term Local-Currency Issuer Default Ratings ("IDRs") and senior unsecured long-term rating at 'BBB-', while revising the rating outlook to "Positive" from "Stable".

The Positive Outlook reflects continued improvement in CCI's financial profile, including materially higher operating profitability in 2020. The ratings continue to be supported by our company's leading positions in its core markets, resilient nature of the soft drinks business sector and CCI's strong financial profile.

In its report Fitch mentions that CCI's performance during the pandemic was one of the strongest among soft drinks bottlers globally. Additionally, healthy cash flow generation on the back of stronger operating margn with disciplined working capital management as well as conservative financial policy with increasing natural hedge against potential FX risks were also cited as key rating drivers. The strategic relationship with The Coca-Cola Company was also cited as a positive factor.
