Coca-Cola Jamaica has granted St Mary resident Berton Williams $100,000
worth of grocery items as the winning prize for his participation in Coca-Cola’s PAN 2019 raffle competition on Sunday, October 27 at Grizzly’s Plantation Cove in St Ann.
Coca-Cola Jamaica, distributed locally by Wisynco Group Limited, sponsored the annual event for the second consecutive year.
Brand Manager of Coca-Cola Jamaica, Amoye Phillpotts-Brown expounded on the reason for its continued support of PAN. “We like to highlight the versatility of the brand and how it pairs perfectly with meals. A meal that is authentic to Jamaicans is jerked chicken, so we thought it was the perfect fit for us.
Generally, foods with jerked seasonings go well with the refreshing taste of Coke,” explained Phillpotts-Brown. “We had a palate display of groceries in our 360° bar and so the winner actually took away his groceries
on spot,” she added.

At the event, each purchase of Coca-Cola qualified as an entry into the raffle for the special prize. The hundreds of attendees at PAN were extremely excited by the enticing display of groceries on location. The stocked display of groceries included snacks, cereal, juices, sodas, and many more. An elated Berton Williams expressed his immense gratitude to Coca-Cola.
“Everything I won is very useful and handy. I said to my wife “I am a lucky guy,” he shared. “It’s a good thing that I drive a pick-up, so it was able to hold everything. I have a lot of family and friends and co-workers, so I shared with everybody. It’s so much, I don’t think I need to buy sodas for the Christmas,” chuckled Williams.
