The caravans will now travel to different towns across the country where they will surprise residents with an assortment of items including assorted gifts, soft drinks, and food items to help them prepare for the Christmas and New Year celebrations.

The real magic of Christmas invites us to experience a higher sense of appreciation for loved ones, a sense of community, and our need to be present with each other this Christmas, above all else.
“December is the season when loved ones, families, friends, and neighbors come together to share laughter, stories and bond over meals and drinks. We want to be part of your celebration! We hope the caravan experience will enrich the festivities and sprinkle some magic to it,” remarked Arthur Akankwasa, Franchise Manager Uganda Coca-Cola East and Central Franchise.

For almost three decades, since they first lit up the small screen in a TV ad in the mid-1990s, Coca-Cola has built its Caravans truck asset as a powerful and tangible icon of Christmas across the globe.
The brand will be curating a truly magical, festive experience centred around sharing meals with an ice-cold Coca-Cola drink. to bring communities around Uganda together for festive cheer.
Isaac Sekasi, Commercial Director, Coca-Cola Beverages Uganda reminded Ugandans of the magic of family, and shared experiences.

Coming for a two-year lockdown where people experience different hardships, this is a reminder to celebrate the magic around us; family loved ones and happy moments. We invite you to refocus on the magic within us, it takes a different lens to see magic. Use a red lens!”
