And yesterday, November 2, The Coca-Cola Company announced that they had bought the remaining 85% of the company and it is now completely under their control. The deal is worth $ 5.6 billion, making it Coca-Cola’s largest to date.
In 2007, 4.1 billion was paid for Glaceau, the producer of Vitaminwater, and in 2018, 5.1 billion for Costa Coffee.
Currently, BodyArmor is the second best-selling sports drink after Gatorade, which is held by Coca-Cola’s competitors – PepsiCo. Kobe Bryant will be the winner of the deal between The Coca-Cola Company and BodyArmor.
