  據(jù)菲律賓《商報》9月5日報道，總部設(shè)在亞特蘭大的可口可樂公司重整了菲律賓可口可樂公司和它屬下兩個附屬公司，以期在菲律賓市場取得更大份額。　　 

  菲可口可樂公司、大同汽水公司和菲飲料伙伴公司周一宣布完成重組計劃。它們創(chuàng)造了1000份新職位和聘用了2000名新銷售人員以促進(jìn)效率和奪取市場份額。　　 

  該公司說，作為一個商業(yè)組織，它希望通過將公司重點(diǎn)轉(zhuǎn)向市場拓展和客戶服務(wù)，以進(jìn)一步促進(jìn)市場和財務(wù)增長。

  Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc. (CCBPI) and its subsidiaries Cosmos Bottling Corporation (CBC) and Philippine Beverage Partners Inc. (PhilBev) have announced reorganization plans.

  The reorganization will create an additional 1,000 new jobs across the Philippines. CCBPI will directly employ as much as 7,367 people in the Philippines.

  CCBPI Public Affairs and Communications Director JB Baylon said: "As a business organization, we want to further drive both our market and financial growth by refocusing our organization towards market development and customer service".

  Under the plan, Cosmos Bottling Corporation will transfer the manufacturing requirements of its plants located at Cauayan, Isabela; San Jacinto, Pangasinan; San Fernando, Pampanga; Iloilo, and Cebu to specified plants of Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc.

  It is expected that about 1,500 Cosmos workers will be made redundant with the closure of the 5 facilities.

  However, "many existing CBC and PhilBev sales employees will be redeployed to other specified CCBPI installations. Those, who cannot be redeployed, will receive a good and fair separation package," CCBPI said in a statement.

  The Coca-Cola Company fully acquired CCBPI in February. Coca-Cola bought San Miguel's 65% stake in the bottling firm for USD 590 million. FLEXNEWS initially reported the acquisition in November 2006.

  San Miguel and Coca-Cola jointly acquired CCBPI in July 2001 from Coca-Cola Amatil Ltd. of Australia.
