Congratulations, Longwood University!

Thank you for your participation in the 2017 Coca-Cola College and University Best of the Best Competition.

This year, there were over 150 submissions that highlight impressive teamwork, strong customer relationships, and dedication to superior execution.  Each of these plays such an important role in making meaningful connections with college consumers and creating valuable partnerships with you, our customer.

A panel of judges, comprised of Coca-Cola Senior Leaders familiar with the College and University channel strategies, evaluated each campus on the following:

  • Amount of outlet execution across all dining and retail facilities (as indicated via a “scorecard” submitted by your local Coca-Cola sales team)
  • Quality of total campus activation (as represented in pictures submitted by your local Coca-Cola sales team)
  • Volume per student metric

Overall, Longwood University scored the highest in its class; and it is with great honor that your institution has been named the National Winner in the Tier 3 school grouping!
