Coca-Cola Europacific Partners Surges to 294th in Daily Rankings with 2.84 Billion Trading Volume

On March 28, 2025, Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP) saw a trading volume of 2.84 billion, marking a 40.05% increase from the previous day. This surge placed CCEP at the 294th position in the daily stock market rankings.

CCEP has recently announced a strategic investment in Avalo, a startup dedicated to developing more sustainable crops through innovative AI-based technology. This technology aims to breed seeds that require less water and fertilizer, thereby enhancing crop efficiency in various environments. The partnership, funded by CCEP Ventures, will integrate Avalo into a growing portfolio of climate innovators, helping CCEP reduce carbon emissions across its value chain.

One of the key areas of focus is the reduction of the carbon footprint associated with sugarcane used in CCEP's products. The company plans to test Avalo's technology within its Australian supply chain in the near future. Agricultural ingredients account for a significant portion of CCEP's value chain emissions, approximately 28%. Avalo's lower-input crops offer a solution to this challenge by addressing the environmental costs of sugar cultivation, including the substantial use of nitrogen and water.

Avalo's approach leverages broader gene pools, wild varieties, and natural pollination, combined with predictive modeling and interpretable machine learning. This method accelerates the development of crop varieties that require fewer inputs while maintaining healthy crop yields. The investment aligns with CCEP's sustainability action plan, This is Forward, which aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 30% by 2040 and achieve net-zero emissions by 2040.
