Accordingly, the global beverage giant intends to - offer low- or no- calorie beverage options in every market; provide transparent nutrition information, featuring calories on the front of packages; support physical activity programs in every country, and market responsibly, including no advertising to children under 12 anywhere in the world.

The company will continue to offer its wide range of beverages in portion-controlled packages and with new, natural zero-calorie sweeteners like stevia.

Coca-Cola chairman and chief executive officer Muhtar Kent said that the company will be part of the solution for global obesity concern by working closely with partners from business, government and civil society.

"Today's announcement is another step forward on our journey, as we take action with scale and reach across every country and continent where we operate," Kent added.

It also supports hundreds of active, healthy living programs in more than 115 countries reaching millions of people, and is putting calories on the front of nearly all its beverages worldwide.

Coca-Cola offers non-alcoholic beverages in a range of beverage categories - from sparkling beverages to water, enhanced and flavored water beverages, tea, coffee, juice and juice drinks, sports beverages and energy drinks.
