Arca Continental's ratings reflect the solid business position of its beverage business, AC Bebidas, which is one of the largest bottlers of Coca-Cola products in the world with geographically diversified operations in Latin America and Southwestern U.S.

These ratings reflect the solid overall performance shown by the Arca Continental businesses in their territories.
