In the heart of Mumbwa District, Angela Mukuni, a passionate businesswoman, never expected that a simple Coca-Cola bottle would hold the key to a life-changing opportunity. Angela, one of the first winners of the Wina Na Kapendelo ka Coke promotion, once thought such promotions were just marketing gimmicks, designed to clear stock and exploit consumers’ curiosity. But her story would prove otherwise.
Initially, Angela’s skepticism was high. She had grown wary of flashy promotions after witnessing countless scams and betting schemes that promised quick riches but ultimately led to disappointment. “I thought it was just another trick,” she recalls. But one day, driven by a spark of curiosity, Angela decided to test her luck. After drinking her Coca-Cola, she checked under the metal crown and found a code. Instead of dismissing it, she dialed the number provided—38424#—and was greeted with a surprise: she had won K25,000!
At first, disbelief took over. “It must be a mistake,” Angela thought. However, when the prize was confirmed, her skepticism turned into overwhelming joy. The win was not only an unexpected stroke of good fortune, but it also presented Angela with a life-altering opportunity.
Angela didn’t waste any time. She immediately used her winnings to improve her business and her family’s well-being. The first step was investing in a deep freezer and significantly restocking her grocery shop at Fourways Bus Station. This move not only improved her business operations but also attracted more customers, many of whom were inspired by her story and eager to try their own luck with Coca-Cola bottles.
Her newfound financial stability also allowed Angela to give back to her family and community. She used part of the prize money to support her children’s education, ensuring a brighter future for them. Additionally, she addressed a long-standing issue at home by restoring the water supply, greatly improving her family’s quality of life.
The Wina Na Kapendelo ka Coke promotion is more than just a competition for prizes—it’s a celebration of loyal Coca-Cola consumers and a testament to how a little luck, combined with optimism and hard work, can bring about extraordinary change. For Angela, that simple Coca-Cola bottle turned an ordinary day into an extraordinary journey of hope, success, and generosity.
Today, as her thriving shop buzzes with activity, Angela’s story continues to inspire her community, reminding everyone of the powerful impact that opportunity, when paired with determination, can have.
