Coca-Cola is jointly hosting “JOC Olympic Athlete Training Support Program with Coca-Cola” with a public interest incorporated foundation Japanese Olympic Committee (JOC) to support training of athletes who are thriving to compete in the Olympic and to encourage Olympic Movement. As part of the program, we started installation of “JOC Olympic Support VM” in January 2016.

(HQ: Minato Ward, Tokyo and Representative Director & President: Tamio Yoshimatsu) was able to install “JOC Olympic Support VM” on the premise of Global fitness & studio as the first “JOC Olympic Support VM” in Tsuyama City, Okayama . It was made possible by Global fitness & studio that resonated with the concepts of the program to support training of athletes who are expected to shine in Tokyo Olympic in 2020.   

Coca-Cola Bottlers Japan Inc. will continue making efforts to expand JOS Olympic Support VM and promote our activities to users so we can gain support for improving training of potential athletes of Tokyo Olympic 2020 and create a more exciting atmosphere.
