Thank you for this! KOF looks compelling.
I think KO traded assets with what is now the large European bottler. I'd looked into Coca-Cola Enterprises (CCE) at one point, and had lost track: In 2010 KO bought CCE's North American operations, and KO spun off their European bottling operations to "New CCE". Someone clearly had a sense of humor with naming companies. New CCE merged with two other European bottlers and is now Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (
