Monster Beverage Corporation is the company behind Monster Energy. The Coca- Cola Company holds a minority stake in Monster (approximately 19%–20%), a result of a strategic partnership formed in 2015. Coca-Cola does not own Monster outright; Monster remains a standalone public company with its own management and board, while Coca-Cola provides distribution scale and support as a significant investor. In addition to Coca-Cola, Monster's ownership is dispersed among institutional investors and retail shareholders, with executives like Rodney Sacks (Chairman/Co-CEO) and Hilton Schlosberg (Vice Chairman/Co-CEO) retaining meaningful stakes to align incentives with company performance.
