Coca-Cola to spend $70M on upgrades to Calgary plant

Coca-Cola Canada Bottling Ltd. has committed to spending $70 million for upgrades to its bottling plant in Calgary.

The money marks the company’s biggest single investment in a facility since at least 2018, and will be used to “build a new, state-of-the-art, on-site, high-density warehouse,” according to a news release.

The upgraded plant will feature a new inventory management system and increased capacity, which the company believes will improve customer service and reduce emissions.

The non-alcoholic beverage sector has seen significant growth in recent years as people look to options other than alcohol.
