When the historic Candler Trophy — a cherished symbol of the St. Andrews Bay Yacht Club for nearly 90 years — was lost in a fire, Coca-Cola Bottling UNITED stepped in to help restore a beloved piece of Panama City history.
A.C. Candler, who purchased the rights to the Coca-Cola recipe in 1888 and later founded the company, shares deep ties with the Panama City area and this gesture beautifully honors that legacy.
Thank you to Coca-Cola Bottling UNITED for helping preserve this local tradition and to Paul Corbin, FBA Board Member and Area Sales Manager at Coca-Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated, for sharing the story!
