We award a wide moat to Arca Continental. We think brand intangibles from its status as a top five bottler to wide-moat Coca-Cola, coupled with cost advantages given its large manufacturing and distribution scale, should support the firm’s competitive standing and excess investment returns for more than 20 years.
Arca is poised to drive volume growth in under-penetrated Latin American markets, leveraging Coke’s brand prowess and a strong product lineup in sodas and noncarbonated drinks.
We expect health awareness-driven headwinds to soft drink demand will likely gain traction in Latin America, posing a threat to Arca’s long-term growth.
