Lublin Coca-Cola Bottlers Ltd.

MIGA issued guarantees for $2.7 million to Ringnes A.S., a Norwegian company and Coca-Cola franchise holder, for its investment in a marketing and distribution company in Lublin, Poland. The company will distribute soft drinks procured from Ringnes's two other joint venture bottling companies in Warsaw and Bydgoszcz, Poland, also previously insured by MIGA. The project is expected to generate about seventy jobs. Ringnes will provide both classroom and on-the-job training in sales, marketing, and distribution for its new employees.
