Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Pronouncements	1. Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Pronouncements The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of Coca‑Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated and its majority-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal, recurring accruals, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented: • The financial position as of October 1, 2017 and January 1, 2017. • The results of operations and comprehensive income for the 13 week periods ended October 1, 2017 (“third quarter” of fiscal 2017 (“2017”)) and October 2, 2016 (“third quarter” of fiscal 2016 (“2016”)), and the 39 week periods ended October 1, 2017 (“first three quarters” of 2017) and October 2, 2016 (“first three quarters” of 2016). • The changes in equity and cash flows for the first three quarters of 2017 and the first three quarters of 2016. The consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The accounting policies followed in the presentation of interim financial results are consistent with those followed on an annual basis. These policies are presented in Note 1 to the consolidated condensed financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The preparation of consolidated condensed financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant Accounting Policies In the ordinary course of business, the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of results of operations and financial position in the preparation of its consolidated condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The Company included in its Annual Report on Form 10‑K for 2016 under the caption “Discussion of Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and New Accounting Pronouncements” in Part II, “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” a discussion of the Company’s most critical accounting policies, which are those most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company did not make changes in any significant accounting policies during the third quarter of 2017. Any changes in critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company during the quarter in which a change is contemplated and prior to making such change. Recently Adopted Pronouncements In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2017 and there was no impact to the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11 “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” The new guidance requires an entity to measure most inventory “at lower of cost and net realizable value” thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2017 and there was no material impact to the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements. Recently Issued Pronouncements In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” which The new guidance is effective for the annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated condensed financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01 “Clarifying the Definition of a Business,” which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The impact to the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements will depend on the facts and circumstances of any specific future transactions. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases,” which requires lessees to recognize a right-to-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all leases (other than leases meeting the definition of a short-term lease). The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods beginning the following fiscal year. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements. Additionally, the Company is evaluating the impacts of the standard beyond accounting, including system, data and process changes required to comply with the standard. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which revises the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain fair value changes in financial liabilities measured at fair value. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements. Over the past several years, the FASB has issued several accounting standards for revenue recognition: • ASU 2014‑09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” was issued in May 2014, which was originally going to be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. • ASU 2015-14 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date” was issued in August 2015, which deferred the effective date to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. • ASU 2016-08 “Principal Versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross Versus Net)” was issued in March 2016, which amended certain aspects of ASU 2014‑09. • ASU 2016-11 “Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting” was issued in May 2016, which amended certain aspects of ASU 2014‑09. • ASU 2016-12 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients” was issued in May 2016, which amended certain aspects of ASU 2014‑09. • ASU 2016-20 “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers” was issued in December 2016, which clarified the new revenue standard and corrected unintended application of the guidance. The Company does not plan to early adopt this guidance and is in the process of determining whether to adopt a full retrospective approach or a modified retrospective approach. The Company has started its assessment of the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements by identifying and performing detailed walkthroughs of key revenue streams, including high level contract review. The Company will continue its assessment with detailed contract reviews for all revenue streams in order to evaluate revenue recognition requirements and prepare an implementation work plan. Based on the Company’s current assessment, it does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements.

The Revolving Credit Facility, the Term Loan Facility and the Private Shelf Facility include two financial covenants: a consolidated cash flow/fixed charges ratio and a consolidated funded indebtedness/cash flow ratio, each as defined in the respective agreements. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of October 1, 2017. The indentures under which the Company’s public debt was issued do not include financial covenants but do limit the incurrence of certain liens and encumbrances as well as the indebtedness by the Company’s subsidiaries in excess of certain amounts. All outstanding long-term debt has been issued by the Company and none has been issued by any of its subsidiaries. There are no guarantees of the Company’s debt.

Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Financial Instruments	12. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company is subject to the risk of increased costs arising from adverse changes in certain commodity prices. In the normal course of business, the Company manages these risks through a variety of strategies, including the use of derivative instruments. The Company does not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. All derivative instruments are recorded at fair value as either assets or liabilities in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheets. These derivative instruments are not designated as hedging instruments under GAAP and are used as “economic hedges” to manage certain commodity price risk. Derivative instruments held are marked to market on a monthly basis and recognized in earnings consistent with the expense classification of the underlying hedged item. Settlements of derivative agreements are included in cash flows from operating activities on the Company’s consolidated condensed statements of cash flows. The Company uses several different financial institutions for commodity derivative instruments to minimize the concentration of credit risk. While the Company would be exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by these counterparties, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by these parties. The following table summarizes pre-tax changes in the fair value of the Company’s commodity derivative financial instruments and the classification of such changes in the consolidated condensed statements of operations. Third Quarter First Three Quarters (in thousands) Classification of Gain 2017 2016 2017 2016 Commodity hedges Cost of sales $ 2,042 $ 401 $ 2,066 $ 2,695 Commodity hedges Selling, delivery and administrative expenses 1,359 (13 ) 475 1,503 Total gain $ 3,401 $ 388 $ 2,541 $ 4,198 The following table summarizes the fair values and classification in the consolidated condensed balance sheets of derivative instruments held by the Company: (in thousands) Balance Sheet Classification October 1, 2017 January 1, 2017 Assets: Commodity hedges at fair market value Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ 3,153 $ 1,289 Commodity hedges at fair market value Other assets 679 - Total assets $ 3,832 $ 1,289 Liabilities: Commodity hedges at fair market value Other accrued liabilities $ 2 $ - Total liabilities $ 2 $ - The Company has master agreements with the counterparties to its derivative financial agreements that provide for net settlement of derivative transactions. Accordingly, the net amounts of derivative assets are recognized in either prepaid expenses and other current assets or other assets in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheets and the net amounts of derivative liabilities are recognized in other accrued liabilities or other liabilities in the consolidated condensed balance sheets. The following table summarizes the Company’s gross derivative assets and gross derivative liabilities in the consolidated condensed balance sheets: (in thousands) October 1, 2017 January 1, 2017 Gross derivative assets $ 4,166 $ 1,297 Gross derivative liabilities 336 8 The following table summarizes the Company’s outstanding commodity derivative agreements: (in thousands) October 1, 2017 January 1, 2017 Notional amount of outstanding commodity derivative agreements $ 77,752 $ 13,146 Latest maturity date of outstanding commodity derivative agreements December 2018 December 2017

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Values of Financial Instruments	13. Fair Values of Financial Instruments GAAP requires assets and liabilities carried at fair value to be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories: • Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. • Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair values of its financial instruments. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between levels in any period presented. Financial Instrument Fair Value Level Method and Assumptions Deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities Level 1 The fair value of the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan for certain executives and other highly compensated employees is based on the fair values of associated assets and liabilities, which are held in mutual funds and are based on the quoted market value of the securities held within the mutual funds. Commodity hedging agreements Level 2 The fair values of the Company’s commodity hedging agreements are based on current settlement values at each balance sheet date. The fair values of the commodity hedging agreements at each balance sheet date represent the estimated amounts the Company would have received or paid upon termination of these agreements. The Company’s credit risk related to the derivative financial instruments is managed by requiring high standards for its counterparties and periodic settlements. The Company considers nonperformance risk in determining the fair value of derivative financial instruments. Non-public variable rate debt Level 2 The carrying amounts of the Company’s non-public variable rate debt approximate their fair values due to variable interest rates with short reset periods. Non-public fixed rate debt Level 2 The fair values of the Company’s non-public fixed rate debt are based on estimated current market prices. Public debt securities Level 2 The fair values of the Company’s public debt securities are based on estimated current market prices. Acquisition related contingent consideration Level 3 The fair values of acquisition related contingent consideration are based on internal forecasts and the weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) derived from market data. The following tables summarize, by assets and liabilities, the carrying amounts and fair values by level of the Company’s deferred compensation plan, commodity hedging agreements, debt and acquisition related contingent consideration: October 1, 2017 Carrying Total Fair Value Fair Value Fair Value (in thousands) Amount Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Deferred compensation plan assets $ 30,968 $ 30,968 $ 30,968 $ - $ - Commodity hedging agreements 3,832 3,832 - 3,832 - Liabilities: Deferred compensation plan liabilities 30,968 30,968 30,968 - - Commodity hedging agreements 2 2 - 2 - Non-public variable rate debt 546,354 547,000 - 547,000 - Non-public fixed rate debt 124,814 126,000 - 126,000 - Public debt securities 456,679 482,600 - 482,600 - Acquisition related contingent consideration 308,933 308,933 - - 308,933 January 1, 2017 Carrying Total Fair Value Fair Value Fair Value (in thousands) Amount Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Deferred compensation plan assets $ 24,903 $ 24,903 $ 24,903 $ - $ - Commodity hedging agreements 1,289 1,289 - 1,289 - Liabilities: Deferred compensation plan liabilities 24,903 24,903 24,903 - - Non-public variable rate debt 451,222 452,000 - 452,000 - Public debt securities 456,032 475,800 - 475,800 - Acquisition related contingent consideration 253,437 253,437 - - 253,437 Under the Final CBA, the Company will make a quarterly sub-bottling payment to CCR on a continuing basis for the grant of exclusive rights to distribute, promote, market and sell specified covered beverages and beverage products in the Expansion Territories. This acquisition related contingent consideration is valued using a probability weighted discounted cash flow model based on internal forecasts and the WACC derived from market data, which are considered Level 3 inputs. Each reporting period, the Company adjusts its acquisition related contingent consideration liability related to the Expansion Territories to fair value by discounting future expected sub-bottling payments required under the Final CBA using the Company’s estimated WACC. These future expected sub-bottling payments extend through the life of the related distribution assets acquired in each Expansion Territory, which is generally 40 The acquisition related contingent consideration is the Company’s only Level 3 asset or liability. A reconciliation of the Level 3 activity is as follows: Third Quarter First Three Quarters (in thousands) 2017 2016 2017 2016 Opening balance - Level 3 liability $ 319,102 $ 228,768 $ 253,437 $ 136,570 Increase due to acquisitions - - 46,086 68,039 Payments/current payables (4,944 ) (2,995 ) (13,730 ) (12,261 ) (Favorable)/unfavorable fair value adjustment (5,225 ) (7,365 ) 23,140 26,060 Ending balance - Level 3 liability $ 308,933 $ 218,408 $ 308,933 $ 218,408 The fair value adjustments to the acquisition related contingent consideration liability during the third quarter of 2017 and the first three quarters of 2017 were primarily driven by a change in the risk-free interest rate The anticipated amount the Company could pay annually under the acquisition related contingent consideration arrangements for the Expansion Transactions is in the range of

This one-time fee was recorded as a deferred liability and will be amortized as a reduction to cost of sales over a period of 40 years. As of October 1, 2017, $2.3 million of this fee was recorded in other accrued liabilities, $88.0 million of this fee was recorded to other liabilities and $1.2 million was amortized during the first three quarters of 2017 on the consolidated condensed financial statements.

Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	15. Commitments and Contingencies Manufacturing Cooperatives The Company is a shareholder of South Atlantic Canners, Inc. (“SAC”), a manufacturing cooperative in Bishopville, South Carolina. All eight shareholders of SAC are Coca‑Cola bottlers and each has equal voting rights. The Company receives a fee for managing the day-to-day operations of SAC pursuant to a management agreement. Proceeds from management fees received from SAC were $6.9 million in the first three quarters of 2017 and $7.0 million in the first three quarters of 2016. The Company is obligated to purchase 17.5 million cases of finished product from SAC on an annual basis through June 2024. The Company purchased 22.6 million cases and 23.2 million cases of finished product from SAC in the first three quarters of 2017 and the first three quarters of 2016, respectively. The Company is also a shareholder of Southeastern Container (“Southeastern”), a plastic bottle manufacturing cooperative from which the Company is obligated to purchase at least 80% of its requirements of plastic bottles for certain designated territories. The following table summarizes the Company’s purchases from these manufacturing cooperatives: Third Quarter First Three Quarters (in thousands) 2017 2016 2017 2016 Purchases from SAC $ 37,267 $ 39,831 $ 111,408 $ 115,563 Purchases from Southeastern 29,344 20,530 80,301 57,839 Total purchases from manufacturing cooperatives $ 66,611 $ 60,361 $ 191,709 $ 173,402 The Company guarantees a portion of SAC’s and Southeastern’s debt, which resulted primarily from the purchase of production equipment and facilities and expires at various dates through 2023. The amounts guaranteed were as follows: (in thousands) October 1, 2017 January 1, 2017 Guaranteed portion of debt - SAC $ 23,938 $ 23,297 Guaranteed portion of debt - Southeastern 8,551 9,277 Total guaranteed portion of debt - manufacturing cooperatives $ 32,489 $ 32,574 In the event either of these cooperatives fails to fulfill its commitments under the related debt, the Company would be responsible for payments to the lenders up to the level of the guarantees. The following table summarizes the Company’s maximum exposure under these guarantees if these cooperatives had borrowed up to their aggregate borrowing capacity: October 1, 2017 (in thousands) South Atlantic Canners, Inc. Southeastern Container Total Manufacturing Cooperatives Maximum guaranteed debt $ 23,938 $ 25,251 $ 49,189 Equity investments (1) 7,327 17,768 25,095 Maximum total exposure, including equity investments $ 31,265 $ 43,019 $ 74,284 (1) Recorded in other assets on the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheets. The members of both cooperatives consist solely of Coca‑Cola bottlers. The Company does not anticipate either of these cooperatives will fail to fulfill its commitments. The Company further believes each of these cooperatives has sufficient assets, including production equipment, facilities and working capital, and the ability to adjust selling prices of its products to adequately mitigate the risk of material loss from the Company’s guarantees. The Company holds no assets as collateral against the SAC or Southeastern guarantees, the fair value of which is immaterial to the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements. The Company monitors its investments in SAC and Southeastern and would be required to write down its investment if an impairment was identified and the Company determined it to be other than temporary. No impairment of the Company’s investments in SAC or Southeastern was identified as of October 1, 2017, and there was no impairment identified in 2016. Other Commitments and Contingencies The Company has standby letters of credit, primarily related to its property and casualty insurance programs. These letters of credit totaled $35.6 million on October 1, 2017 and $29.7 million on January 1, 2017. The Company participates in long-term marketing contractual arrangements with certain prestige properties, athletic venues and other locations. As of October 1, 2017, the future payments related to these contractual arrangements, which expire at various dates through 2030, amounted to $124.4 million. The Company is from time to time a party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. With respect to all such lawsuits, claims and proceedings, the Company records reserves when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not believe that any of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, would be expected to have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company maintains liability insurance for certain risks that is subject to certain self-insurance limits. The Company is subject to audits by tax authorities in jurisdictions where it conducts business. These audits may result in assessments that are subsequently resolved with the authorities or potentially through the courts. Management believes the Company has adequately provided for any assessments likely to result from these audits; however, final assessments, if any, could be different than the amounts recorded in the consolidated condensed financial statements.

Income Taxes	16. Income Taxes The Company’s effective tax rate, as calculated by dividing income tax expense by income before income taxes, was 34.8% for the first three quarters of 2017 and 35.6% for the first three quarters of 2016. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by a reduction in the valuation allowance resulting from the Company’s assessment of its ability to use certain loss carryforwards and a reduction to the Company’s uncertain tax positions resulting from the expiration of the statute of limitations. The Company’s effective tax rate, as calculated by dividing income tax expense by income before income taxes minus net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, was 38.8% for the first three quarters of 2017 and 39.4% for the first three quarters of 2016. The Company had uncertain tax positions, including accrued interest, of $1.8 million on October 1, 2017 and $2.9 million on January 1, 2017, all of which would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized. While it is expected the amount of uncertain tax positions may change in the next 12 months, the Company does not expect such change would have a significant impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements. Prior tax years beginning in year 2002 remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, and various tax years beginning in year 1998 remain open to examination by certain state tax jurisdictions due to loss carryforwards.

Benefit Plans	19. Pension and Postretirement Benefit Obligations Pension Plans There are two Company-sponsored pension plans. The primary Company-sponsored pension plan (the “Primary Plan”) was frozen on June 30, 2006 and no benefits accrued to participants after this date. The second Company-sponsored pension plan (the “Bargaining Plan”) is for certain employees under collective bargaining agreements. Benefits under the Bargaining Plan are determined in accordance with negotiated formulas for the respective participants. Contributions to the plans are based on actuarial determined amounts and are limited to the amounts currently deductible for income tax purposes. The components of net periodic pension cost were as follows: Third Quarter First Three Quarters (in thousands) 2017 2016 2017 2016 Service cost $ 150 $ 28 $ 450 $ 85 Interest cost 2,978 3,031 8,936 9,093 Expected return on plan assets (3,399 ) (3,458 ) (10,197 ) (10,373 ) Recognized net actuarial loss 807 741 2,421 2,222 Amortization of prior service cost 7 7 21 21 Net periodic pension cost $ 543 $ 349 $ 1,631 $ 1,048 The Company contributed $10.0 million to the Primary Plan and $1.6 million to the Bargaining Plan during the third quarter of 2017. The Company does not anticipate making additional contributions to the Company-sponsored pension plans during the fourth quarter of 2017. Postretirement Benefits The Company provides postretirement benefits for a portion of its current employees. The Company recognizes the cost of postretirement benefits, which consist principally of medical benefits, during covered employees’ periods of active service. The Company does not pre-fund these benefits and has the right to modify or terminate certain of these benefits in the future. The components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost were as follows: Third Quarter First Three Quarters (in thousands) 2017 2016 2017 2016 Service cost $ 572 $ 350 $ 1,716 $ 1,050 Interest cost 910 778 2,732 2,333 Recognized net actuarial loss 648 587 1,944 1,762 Amortization of prior service cost (745 ) (840 ) (2,237 ) (2,520 ) Net periodic postretirement benefit cost $ 1,385 $ 875 $ 4,155 $ 2,625 There was $14.7 million postretirement benefit obligations related to territory exchanges and acquisitions that closed on October 2, 2017, which was classified as held for sale as of October 1, 2017. Refer to Note 24 for additional information. Multi-Employer Benefits Certain employees of the Company whose employment is covered under collective bargaining agreements participate in a multi-employer pension plan, the Employers-Teamsters Local Union Nos. 175 and 505 Pension Fund (the “Teamsters Plan”). The Company makes monthly contributions to the Teamsters Plan on behalf of such employees. Certain collective bargaining agreements covering the Teamsters Plan expired on April 29, 2017. These agreements were renewed and will now expire in April 2020. The remainder of these agreements will expire on July 26, 2018. The risks of participating in the Teamsters Plan are different from single-employer plans as contributed assets are pooled and may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers. If a participating employer stops contributing to the Teamsters Plan, the unfunded obligations of the Teamsters Plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers. If the Company chooses to stop participating in the Teamsters Plan, the Company could be required to pay the Teamsters Plan a withdrawal liability based on the underfunded status of the Teamsters Plan. The Company does not anticipate withdrawing from the Teamsters Plan. In 2015, the Company increased its contribution rates to the Teamsters Plan, with additional increases occurring annually, as part of a rehabilitation plan, which was incorporated into the renewal of collective bargaining agreements with the unions effective April 28, 2014 and adopted by the Company as a rehabilitation plan effective January 1, 2015. This is a result of the Teamsters Plan being certified by its actuary as being in “critical” status for the plan year beginning January 1, 2013.

Pursuant to the NPSG Governance Agreement, The Coca‑Cola Company and the RPBs have formed a national product supply group (the “NPSG”) and agreed to certain binding governance mechanisms, including a governing board (the “NPSG Board”) comprised of a representative of (i) the Company, (ii) The Coca‑Cola Company and (iii) each other RPB. As The Coca‑Cola Company continues its multi-year refranchising effort of its North American bottling territories, additional RPBs may be added to the NPSG Board. As of October 1, 2017, the NPSG Board consisted of The Coca‑Cola‑Company, the Company and seven other RPBs, including CCR. The stated objectives of the NPSG include, among others, (i) Coca‑Cola system strategic infrastructure investment and divestment planning; (ii) network optimization of all plant to distribution center sourcing; and (iii) new product/packaging infrastructure planning.

The Company currently has the right to designate one of the members of CONA’s board of directors and has a percentage interest in CONA of approximately 19%.

The Company is obligated to pay the Service Fees under the Master Services Agreement even if it is not using the CONA System for all or any portion of its operations in the Territories.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	24. Subsequent Events On October 2, 2017, the Company closed the following transactions and entered into the following agreements, each as described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8‑K filed with the SEC on October 4, 2017. Acquisition of Arkansas Expansion Territory and Memphis and West Memphis Expansion Facilities in exchange for the Company’s Deep South and Somerset Territory and Mobile Facility (“CCR Exchange Transaction”) On October 2, 2017, the Company (i) acquired from CCR certain of CCR’s exclusive rights, associated distribution assets and liabilities, and working capital relating to the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale of The Coca‑Cola Company-owned and -licensed beverage products and certain cross-licensed brands in territory located in central and southern Arkansas and two regional manufacturing facilities previously owned by CCR in Memphis, Tennessee and West Memphis, Arkansas and related manufacturing assets and certain associated liabilities (collectively, the “CCR Exchange Business”) in exchange for which the Company (ii) transferred to CCR certain of the Company’s exclusive rights, associated distribution assets and liabilities, and working capital relating to the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale of The Coca‑Cola Company-owned and -licensed beverage products and certain cross-licensed brands in territory located in portions of southern Alabama, southeastern Mississippi, southwestern Georgia and northwestern Florida and in and around Somerset, Kentucky, as well as a regional manufacturing facility previously owned by the Company in Mobile, Alabama and related manufacturing assets and certain associated liabilities (collectively, the “Deep South and Somerset Exchange Business”), pursuant to an asset exchange agreement between the Company, certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries and CCR dated September 29, 2017 (the “CCR Asset Exchange Agreement”). During the third quarter of 2017, the Company paid CCR $16.9 million toward the closing of the CCR Exchange Transaction, representing an estimate of the difference between the value of the CCR Exchange Business acquired by the Company and the value of the Deep South and Somerset Exchange Business acquired by CCR, which such amount remains subject to final resolution pursuant to the CCR Asset Exchange Agreement. As it is impracticable at the time of the filing of this report, the Company has not yet completed the calculation to allocate the purchase price to the individual acquired assets and assumed liabilities or to determine the fair value associated with the acquired assets and assumed liabilities related to this transaction. Additionally, the Company has not completed the calculations to determine whether a gain or loss will occur as a result of the CCR Exchange Transaction, however, following the Company’s preliminary assessment, the Company expects to record a gain related to this transaction during the fourth quarter of 2017. This transaction will be accounted for as a business combination under FASB ASC 805. The payment for the CCR Exchange Transaction reflects the agreement of the Company and The Coca‑Cola Company to apply the remaining $4.8 million of the aggregate valuation adjustment discount of $33.1 million on the purchase price for the Expansion Facilities (the “Expansion Facilities Discount”), pursuant to a letter agreement between them dated March 31, 2017 in connection with the Company’s acquisitions of the Expansion Facilities and the impact on transaction value from certain adjustments made by The Coca‑Cola Company to the authorized pricing under the Final RMA (as defined below) on sales of certain beverages produced by the Company at the Expansion Facilities and sold to The Coca‑Cola Company and certain U.S. Coca‑Cola bottlers (the “Manufacturing Facilities Letter Agreement”), representing the portion of the Expansion Facilities Discount applicable to the two Expansion Facilities acquired in the CCR Exchange Transaction. Following the closing of the CCR Exchange Transaction, no amounts remain outstanding under the Manufacturing Facilities Letter Agreement. Acquisition of Memphis Expansion Territory (“Memphis Territory Acquisition”) On October 2, 2017, the Company acquired from CCR certain of CCR’s rights, associated distribution assets and liabilities, and working capital relating to the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale of The Coca‑Cola Company-owned and -licensed beverage products as well as certain cross-licensed brands in and around Memphis, Tennessee (the “Memphis Territory”), including in portions of northwestern Mississippi and eastern Arkansas, pursuant to an asset exchange agreement between the Company and CCR dated September 29, 2017 (the “Memphis Purchase Agreement”). During the third quarter of 2017, the Company paid CCR $39.6 million toward the closing of the Memphis Territory Acquisition, which represents the cash purchase price and remains subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Memphis Purchase Agreement. As it is impracticable at the time of the filing of this report, the Company has not yet completed the calculation to allocate the purchase price to the individual acquired assets and assumed liabilities or to determine the fair value associated with the acquired assets and assumed liabilities related to this transaction. This transaction will be accounted for as a business combination under FASB ASC 805. Acquisition of Spartanburg and Bluffton Expansion Territory in exchange for the Company’s Florence and Laurel Territory and Piedmont’s Northeastern Georgia Territory (“United Exchange Transactions”) On October 2, 2017, the Company and Piedmont Coca‑Cola Bottling Partnership, a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Piedmont”), completed transactions in which (i) the Company acquired from Coca‑Cola Bottling Company United, Inc. (“United”), an independent bottler that is unrelated to the Company, certain of United’s exclusive rights, associated distribution assets and liabilities, and working capital relating to the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale of The Coca‑Cola Company-owned and -licensed beverage products and certain cross-licensed brands in territories located in and around Spartanburg, South Carolina and a portion of United’s territory located in and around Bluffton, South Carolina and Piedmont acquired from United similar rights, assets and liabilities, and working capital in the remainder of United’s Bluffton, South Carolina territory (collectively, the “United Distribution Business”), in exchange for which (ii) the Company transferred to United certain of the Company’s exclusive rights, associated distribution assets and liabilities, and working capital relating to the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale of The Coca‑Cola Company-owned and -licensed beverage products and certain cross-licensed brands in territory located in parts of northwestern Alabama, south-central Tennessee and southeastern Mississippi previously served by the Company’s distribution centers located in Florence, Alabama and Laurel, Mississippi (collectively, the “Florence and Laurel Distribution Business”) and Piedmont transferred to United similar rights, assets and liabilities, and working capital of Piedmont’s in territory located in parts of northeastern Georgia (the “Northeastern Georgia Distribution Business”), pursuant to an asset exchange agreement between the Company, certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries and United dated September 29, 2017 (the “United Asset Exchange Agreement”) and an asset exchange agreement between Piedmont and United dated September 29, 2017 (the “Piedmont – United Asset Exchange Agreement”). Each of the United Asset Exchange Agreement and the Piedmont – United Asset Exchange Agreement provides that, to the extent the value of the portion of the United Distribution Business acquired by the Company or Piedmont, as applicable, is not equal to the value of the Florence and Laurel Distribution Business or the Northeastern Georgia Distribution Business, as applicable, acquired by United (as such values are finally determined under the United Asset Exchange Agreement or the Piedmont – United Asset Exchange Agreement), the party receiving assets and distribution rights with the greater value is obligated to make a cash payment to the other party equal to the difference between the values. At closing, the Company and Piedmont paid United a net cash purchase price of $3.4 million, representing an estimate of (i) the difference between the value of the portion of the United Distribution Business acquired by the Company and the value of the Florence and Laurel Distribution Business acquired by United, plus (ii) the difference between the value of the portion of the United Distribution Business acquired by Piedmont and the value of the Northeastern Georgia Distribution Business acquired by United, which such amounts remain subject to final resolution pursuant to the United Asset Exchange Agreement and the Piedmont – United Asset Exchange Agreement, respectively. As it is impracticable at the time of the filing of this report, the Company has not yet completed the calculation to allocate the purchase price to the individual acquired assets and assumed liabilities or to determine the fair value associated with the acquired assets and assumed liabilities related to these transactions. Additionally, the Company has not completed the calculations to determine whether a gain or loss will occur as a result of the United Exchange Transactions, however, following the Company’s preliminary assessment, the Company expects to record a gain related to these transactions during the fourth quarter of 2017. These transactions will be accounted for as a business combination under FASB ASC 805. Amendments to Final Comprehensive Beverage Agreements and Final Regional Manufacturing Agreement On October 2, 2017, in connection with the CCR Exchange Transaction, the Memphis Territory Acquisition and the United Exchange Transactions (collectively, the “October 2017 Expansion Transactions”), (i) the Company, Piedmont and CCBC of Wilmington, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, entered into an amendment to comprehensive beverage agreements (the “CBA Amendment”) with The Coca‑Cola Company and CCR to amend each of the final comprehensive beverage agreements between The Coca‑Cola Company and CCR, on the one hand, and each of the Company, Piedmont and CCBC of Wilmington, Inc., on the other hand, and (ii) the Company and The Coca‑Cola Company entered into an amendment (the “RMA Amendment”) to the final regional manufacturing agreement among them dated March 31, 2017 (as amended, the “Final RMA”), each to reflect the effects of the October 2017 Expansion Transactions. In the CBA Amendment, the Company agreed to make a quarterly sub-bottling payment to CCR with respect to the Memphis Territory on a continuing basis, based on sales of certain beverages and beverage products that are sold under the same trademarks that identify a Covered Beverage, Related Product (as those terms are defined in the Final CBA) or certain cross-licensed brands. Summaries of the Final CBA and the Final RMA are provided in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 4, 2017 and the Company intends to file the CBA Amendment and the RMA Amendment with its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017. As of October 1, 2017, the business being exchanged in the CCR Exchange Transaction, which is included in the Nonalcoholic Beverages segment, met the accounting guidance criteria to be classified as held for sale. As such, the Company evaluated the assets and liabilities to determine whether the carrying value exceeded the fair value less any costs to sell based on the agreed-upon sale price. No impairments were recorded as of October 1, 2017 and the aggregate assets and liabilities held for sale have been presented as separate line items in the consolidated condensed balance sheet. The business being exchanged in the CCR Exchange Transaction did not meet the accounting guidance criteria to be classified as discontinued operations. The remaining October 2017 Expansion Transactions were not considered material for additional disclosure. Following is a summary of the CCR Exchange Transaction balances included in assets held for sale and liabilities held for sale: (in thousands) October 1, 2017 Inventories $ 12,479 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 1,608 Property, plant and equipment, net 38,412 Other assets 416 Goodwill 12,727 Distribution agreements, net 63,321 Total assets held for sale $ 128,963 Other accrued liabilities $ 5,306 Pension and postretirement benefit obligations 14,661 Total liabilities held for sale $ 19,967

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies	Significant Accounting Policies In the ordinary course of business, the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of results of operations and financial position in the preparation of its consolidated condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The Company included in its Annual Report on Form 10‑K for 2016 under the caption “Discussion of Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and New Accounting Pronouncements” in Part II, “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” a discussion of the Company’s most critical accounting policies, which are those most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company did not make changes in any significant accounting policies during the third quarter of 2017. Any changes in critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company during the quarter in which a change is contemplated and prior to making such change.
Recently Adopted Pronouncements	Recently Adopted Pronouncements In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2017 and there was no impact to the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11 “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” The new guidance requires an entity to measure most inventory “at lower of cost and net realizable value” thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2017 and there was no material impact to the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements.
Recently Issued Pronouncements	Recently Issued Pronouncements In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” which The new guidance is effective for the annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated condensed financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01 “Clarifying the Definition of a Business,” which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The impact to the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements will depend on the facts and circumstances of any specific future transactions. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases,” which requires lessees to recognize a right-to-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all leases (other than leases meeting the definition of a short-term lease). The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods beginning the following fiscal year. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements. Additionally, the Company is evaluating the impacts of the standard beyond accounting, including system, data and process changes required to comply with the standard. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which revises the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain fair value changes in financial liabilities measured at fair value. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements. Over the past several years, the FASB has issued several accounting standards for revenue recognition: • ASU 2014‑09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” was issued in May 2014, which was originally going to be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. • ASU 2015-14 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date” was issued in August 2015, which deferred the effective date to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. • ASU 2016-08 “Principal Versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross Versus Net)” was issued in March 2016, which amended certain aspects of ASU 2014‑09. • ASU 2016-11 “Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting” was issued in May 2016, which amended certain aspects of ASU 2014‑09. • ASU 2016-12 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients” was issued in May 2016, which amended certain aspects of ASU 2014‑09. • ASU 2016-20 “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers” was issued in December 2016, which clarified the new revenue standard and corrected unintended application of the guidance. The Company does not plan to early adopt this guidance and is in the process of determining whether to adopt a full retrospective approach or a modified retrospective approach. The Company has started its assessment of the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements by identifying and performing detailed walkthroughs of key revenue streams, including high level contract review. The Company will continue its assessment with detailed contract reviews for all revenue streams in order to evaluate revenue recognition requirements and prepare an implementation work plan. Based on the Company’s current assessment, it does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements.
