The change will take effect on March 31, the company said.

Quincey, 60, has held the top job at the beverage giant since 2017. During that time, he oversaw the refranchising of Coke’s bottling system, the company’s navigation through the Covid pandemic and its focus on beverages perceived as healthier.

Braun, 57, has held various roles at Coke since joining the company in 1996. He became COO at the beginning of the year.
