Costco CEO Ron Vachris confirmed the return to Coke at the company's annual shareholder meeting earlier this week.
Costco customers will once again be able to enjoy their hot dog or pizza slice with an ice-cold Coke or Sprite.
Aficionados of Costco's famous $1.50 hot dogs will once again be able to top off their cheap treats with a Coca-Cola after more than a decade of unavailability at the discount retailer, its CEO says.
Costco will switch from Pepsi to Coca-Cola products at its food courts following an earlier move to maintain the price of its $1.50 hot dog combo.
Costco is changing its food court fountain drinks from Pepsi to Coca-Cola. The change reverses a move made in 2013 as the retailer looked to keep the cost of its $1.50 hot dog combo steady. Costco is shaking up its food-court offerings—at least those in the beverage aisle.
Along the way, the company has made a number of changes to the combo, but never the price. For example, it changed the size of the soda from 12 to 20 ounces. It also began producing its own Kirkland Signature hot dogs back in 2008 in an attempt to keep costs down.
