(Daily Sabah) Coca-Cola Norway on Friday debuted a special edition of its classic fizzy beverage to commemorate the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, adding the Islamic crescent moon symbol to its logo for the first time in the Scandinavian country.
Coca-Cola has a long tradition of Christmas editions of Coke in Norway, and this year, the company says it wanted to celebrate Ramadan with Muslims in Norway.
“In Muslim countries we have a long history of observing Ramadan, just like we in this country have a tradition with Christmas campaigns. Now we want for the first time in Norway to celebrate Ramadan together with Norwegian Muslims,” Johanna Kosanovic, marketing head at Coca-Cola Norway, told the Dagbladet newspaper.
