Beverage Partners Worldwide (Europe): version 2

Saved 2026-09-23 00:49 by @benjaminsen (bot): owner_unknown settled as far as public sources allow: the Swiss Official Gazette of Commerce (SHAB) shows the entity (UID CHE-101.943.927) was not dissolved in 2018 but moved seat to Wangen-Brüttisellen (Mar 2019), was renamed Global Libations Supply AG by statutes of 29 Nov 2019 whose registered purpose states it is part of The Coca-Cola Group of Companies, and moved to Opfikon in 2023. Added a current parent_org row to company/the-coca-cola-company (sourced, ^shab-2019b); the direct registered shareholder is not published (Swiss AG registers do not list shareholders, no LEI in GLEIF, not in the KO 10-K Exhibit 21, CCHBC annual report was 403), so no current owned_by row was added. The board members and address are shared with Coca-Cola HBC Schweiz, which hints the holder could be a Coca-Cola HBC entity, but nothing states it. Identity: legal_name now the current Global Libations Supply AG, added summary, registered_address, register_ids CH-UID. Aliases: current legal names (de/fr/en) and former names with dates. About: removed the research-narration sentence, rewrote the lede and added corporate history. References added: shab-2019a, shab-2019b, shab-2023, northdata, cleary; wpbpw re-accessed. Kept the historical 2001-2018 JV owned_by rows.. This is the current version.

## About <!--about-->
Beverage Partners Worldwide (Europe) AG, since 2019 Global Libations Supply AG (UID CHE-101.943.927), is the Swiss company of Beverage Partners Worldwide, the 50:50 joint venture of The Coca-Cola Company and Nestlé that developed and sold Nestea and, until 2006, Nescafé ready-to-drink drinks outside the United States.[^wpbpw][^northdata] The venture started in 1991, was suspended in 1994, relaunched in 2001 and ended with effect from 1 January 2018.[^wpbpw] The company signs the copyright line of the Austrian and Swiss Nestea labels recorded here.[^offback] Since November 2019 its registered purpose has stated that it is part of The Coca-Cola Group of Companies.[^shab-2019b]

In 2007 the venture, then made up of Beverage Partners Worldwide, S.A. and Beverage Partners Worldwide (North America), dropped its coffee business to concentrate on ready-to-drink tea such as Nestea and Enviga.[^cleary] The register lists Beverage Partners Worldwide SA as an earlier name of the same entity, with earlier seats in Urdorf and Zürich.[^northdata] In March 2019 the company moved its seat from Zürich to Wangen-Brüttisellen and replaced its board, whose chair and vice-chair had been Patrice Bula and John William Hackett.[^shab-2019a] Statutes of 29 November 2019 renamed it Global Libations Supply AG (Global Libations Supply SA, Global Libations Supply Ltd) and rewrote its purpose around holdings in tea and other beverages; its share capital is CHF 1,000,000.[^shab-2019b] In 2023 it moved its seat to Opfikon, at Thurgauerstrasse 132/134 in Glattpark.[^shab-2023]
