The celebration of Hispanic Americans began in 1968 as a weeklong U.S. holiday. Today, the recognition spans a 30-day period, September 15th to October 15th. Coke Florida joins our national in highlighting Hispanic culture, history, and achievements across North America. We are proud to employ a diverse group of professionals statewide, give back all of the communities we serve, and partner with businesses to provide iconic Coca-Cola beverages.

Coke Florida’s National Hispanic Heritage Month 2026 celebration focuses on programming aligned with two of our three community pillars: education and economic empowerment. Partnering with various organizations and community programs across the state, Coke Florida will donate more than 100 laptops to students and community partners, establish and upgrade tech labs, and host digital skills training sessions. Our campaign continues to expand in impact with technology and economic empowerment initiatives surpassing $1M to date.

Empowering Communities by Providing Access to
Educational and Technology Resources

During National Hispanic Heritage Month 2026, Coke Florida, a family-owned Coca-Cola bottler, will donate 100 laptops to ensure that students and adults served by community-based programs are equipped with reliable technology to support educational activities, conduct training workshops, and perform employment-related activities. These initiatives assist Floridians of all ages, ethnicities, and backgrounds.
