future for our communities and our planet. We’re doing this by taking a hard look at data and setting goals for our company based in science. In 2019, we provided consumers more beverage choices with less sugar. We continue work to reduce package sizes and provide clear nutrition information. We removed approximately 350,000 tons of added sugar on an annualized basis through approximately 275 product reformulations in 2019. We are making significant progress in our World Without Waste initiative. We now have 16 markets offering beverages packaged in 100% recycled PET bottles, with more to come. Coca-Cola Sweden announced it would be the first market in the world to transition to 100% recycled PET for all plastic bottles made in-country. We made key investments, including in a cutting-edge bottle-to-bottle recycling facility in the Philippines and, in the United States, we teamed with industry partners and major competitors to launch the “Every Bottle Back” program. This includes a new $100 million industry fund that will be used to improve sorting, processing and collection in areas with the biggest infrastructure gaps to help increase the amount of recycled plastic available to be remade into new beverage bottles.
