Coke Summership 2017 Completed

The second generation of trainees successfully completed the Coca-Cola summer practice program 

The Coca-Cola summer practice program Coke Summership 2017 was completed on 26 September 2017. At the final event, program participants and Coca-Cola HBC B-H Sarajevo mentors presented the project results they worked on and shared the impressions gained during the six-month practice.

The Coke Summership summer practice program is a unique combination of lectures, interactive workshops and trainings, as well as fieldwork and practical activities with mentors on real Coca-Cola HBC B-H Sarajevo projects. Encouraged by the results of last year's opening Coca-Cola Summership after which thirteen trainees were employed, six of them in Coca-Cola HBC BH Sarajevo and seven in partner and other companies, Summership was continued this year with the goal of empowering young people in Bosnia and Herzegovina by providing them with the first post-graduate work experience.
