Swire Coca-Cola entered the Southeast Asia market in July last year by purchasing the manufacturing line of Coca-Cola in Vietnam and Cambodia for over $1 billion.
Leaders of Swire Coca-Cola considered the Vietnam purchase successful as it had made considerable contributions to the company, while its unit in Cambodia is posting a loss.
Coca-Cola entered Vietnam in 1994, producing its beverage in three factories.
