The world-famous ‘Share a Coke’ campaign has finally arrived on Singapore’s shores. Coca-Cola cans and bottles will now feature nicknames and phrases in place of the iconic Coca-Cola logo to inspire people to share a Coke with those around us.
In celebration with Singapore’s 50th anniversary, better known as simply SG50, from now till the end of August, Coke, Coke Zero and Coke Light cans and bottles will feature commonly-used Singaporean terms such as ‘Auntie’, ‘Uncle’, ‘Ah Boy’ and ‘Chiongster’; colloquial nicknames such as ‘BFF’, ‘Bestie’, ‘Babe’ and ‘Bro’; classic expressions such as ‘I Love You’ and ‘You’re the Best’ and favourite Singlish phrases such as ‘Gam Siah’, ‘Relak Lah’ and ‘Chiong Ah’. Crazy fun, we say!

“SG50 is a milestone year for Singapore and we wanted to do something special that celebrates Singapore’s unique identity and heritage, whilst strengthening the bonds that weave us together as a nation. ‘Share a Coke’ is all about giving people the opportunity to connect and we want friends, family members, work colleagues and even strangers to experience the special moments that are created through the simple act of sharing a Coke,” shared Gill McLaren, General Manager, Coca-Cola Singapore.
