Cambodia Investment Review

Coca-Cola Cambodia Beverage Company is bringing back the Zero Riel Market this Khmer New Year as part of its ongoing commitment to supporting families in need.

For 33 years, Coca‑Cola has been part of everyday life in Cambodia, creating moments of refreshment and connection for families across the country. Proudly made by Cambodians, for Cambodians, Coca‑Cola continues to stand alongside local communities through programs that support togetherness and shared celebration.

Following the success of last year’s Zero Riel Market during Pchum Ben, the initiative returns for Khmer New Year 2026. In 2025, the program supported 1,800 families, enabling them to shop freely and choose the items they need. Building on this impact, Coca‑Cola aims to support more than 2,000 families in need through the program this year.

As part of the “Buy Coca‑Cola to Support the Zero Riel Market” program, consumers are invited to take part in a simple act of kindness. From February 1 to February 28, 2026, for every case of Coca‑Cola purchased (330ml, 380ml, 580ml, 1.5L, or 2.25L), 500 riels per case will be contributed to a dedicated community fund, which will be administered by local NGO partners to provide essential food items and daily necessities to families in need during the Khmer New Year period.

Made by Khmer hands for the Khmer people. Every day we share moments of refreshment and togetherness with Khmer consumers all over Cambodia. The Zero Riel Market program reflects our commitment to giving back to the communities we are in celebrating the true spirit of Khmer New Year.”

Guided by the belief that small acts of kindness can bring people closer, Coca‑Cola continues to develop community programs that turn everyday moments into shared support.
