As a gold partner, Coca-Cola Bottlers Japan Inc. is sponsoring the Signature Pavilion for the Expo and has installed “Expo Support Vending Machines” throughout Japan. A portion of proceeds from these vending machines will be donated to The Japan Association for the 2025 World Exposition. To further build momentum for the Expo, Coca-Cola Bottlers Japan Inc. and U.S. Department of State are collaborating to promote awareness of the pavilion.

 

Leveraging the Coca-Cola System's expertise in international events, we will work with the United States of America to create momentum for the Expo. As the first Expo in Osaka in 55 years, it represents a unique opportunity to symbolize economic recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic.
