Aug 6 (Reuters) - Coca-Cola Europacific Partners CCEP.O tempered its annual revenue forecast on Wednesday, citing softer demand in Indonesia due to geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and a challenging macroeconomic environment. The bottler, which operates across Western Europe, the Middle East, Australia and New Zealand, said Southeast Asia volumes were hit by brand boycotts in Indonesia, a Muslim-majority country, in response to the conflict in Gaza. Coca-Cola Europacific Partners expects annual comparable revenue to be between 3% and 4%, compared with a prior forecast of about a 4% rise.
