Coca-Cola United to Invest $48 Million In Mobile

Coca-Cola UNITED has announced plans to invest $48 million in its Mobile location to grow its business along the Gulf Coast. The 119-year-old Birmingham-based company will expand its existing warehouse by 120,000 ft2, optimize its distribution operations and install an advanced Vertique warehousing system it says “will benefit its associates, customers and communities in the Mobile area and along the coast.” Upon completion by the end of 2022, it expects an increase in jobs at the facility, which will continue to serve as a hub to distribute products and services to customers and other Coca-Cola UNITED sales centers along the Gulf Coast. Construction is to begin in mid-2021.
