Coca-Cola is the most popular and biggest-selling soft drink in history. An icon of all times, Coca-Cola is the best-known product in the world. Created in Atlanta, Georgia, by Dr. John S.

In 1951, the refreshing wave of Coca-Cola arrived in Nigeria and has remained a hit with consumers across the country.
