Coca-Cola has re-introduced its & quot;Share a Coke" campaign, in which customers can find different names on Coca-Cola bottles and cans.
The company said at an event recently that the brand relaunch would be on an
unprecedented scale of shareability and personalization for a new generation, pushing the
boundaries of innovative brand experiences.
In 2011, the brand launched this first-of-its-kind campaign in which you could find your name in
place of the logo – an industry-first in personalization. Now the brand wants customers to “share
a Coke” with their friends to celebrate friendship and create memories that will last a lifetime.
At an event held on 23rd October, 2025 the Company said the new campaign will have a focus on Gen Z, whom, according to the company, were very young when the first campaign hit the market in 2011. The company statement said further that it had found out that 72 per cent of Gen Z crave authenticity and want to connect with real people in everything they do, and the current campaign.
Valerie Odubogun, Director, Frontline Marketing, Coca-Cola Nigeria said: “In today's digital
world, it is important to celebrate the unique bonds of friendships and celebrate this important
human connection. ‘Share a Coke’ reminds us that memories happen when we come together
and experience the real magic of human connection; those spontaneous moments of laughter,
stories, and genuine connection, shared over a Coca-Cola can, make life so special."
Under the current campaign, the brand’s unique customisation platform offers more names to
choose from and the ability to add one’s personal touch and create a truly unique Coca-Cola
can or bottle to express appreciation for friends, family, and loved ones.
According to the statement. in a world where interactions online can feel momentary, sharing a
Coke offers a tangible way to show you care.
“Meaningful connections thrive both online and offline. While digital spaces keep us close, it’s
those shared moments in real life that make for long -lasting memories, yet the physical ‘third
spaces’ that nourish these meaningful connections are in decline. “Share a Coke” is celebrating
the connections and experiences that define this generation in spaces that allow moments of
togetherness to thrive, “ the company stated.
