In addition, over 160,000 consumers will get a chance to win prizes worth Rs. 3.8 million and over 100,000 free bottles of  Coca-Cola.

Speaking about the initiative, Patrick Pech, Country Manager, Coca-Cola Beverages Sri Lanka, said: “We at Coca-Cola Sri Lanka have always endeavorured to find innovative ways to refresh our consumers. Our latest ‘Brrr Wenna Swiss Yanna’ initiative is a testament of this effort. Through this unique initiative we are giving our consumers the perfect opportunity to experience the infectious ‘Brrr’ by consuming icy cold soft drinks in a perfect setting like Switzerland. Additionally, consumers will also get a chance to win cash prizes worth Rs. 3.8 million and over 100,000 free bottles of Coca-Cola.

“This initiative is an extension of the earlier launched ‘Brrrr’ campaign through which we aim to magnify the connect of Coca-Cola with the consumers. After winning the SLIM awards for ‘Most Popular Beverage Brand of the Year’ and ‘Most Popular Youth Beverage Brand of the Year,’ we look forward to organizing such exciting initiatives in the future and refreshing our loyal consumers with the unparalleled magic of Coca-Cola.”

To participate in this exciting initiative, consumers just need to purchase a bottle of Coca-Cola, Fanta Orange, Fanta Portello, Fanta Cream Soda or Sprite with special green coloured promotional crowns and look for a prize or a nine digit unique code under the bottle’s crown. The consumers then need to redeem the prize from the shopkeeper or SMS ‘Brrr’ followed by the nine digit unique code to 2580 from their mobile phones to win a full expense paid couple trip to Switzerland. The winners will be chosen through a computer generated lucky draw. This initiative is applicable on 175 ml, 300ml and 500ml returnable glass bottles.
