Arca Continental Announces 1M-SF Coca-Cola Facility Development

Monterrey, Mexico-headquartered Arca Continental announced its intent to build a one-million-square-foot distribution and production plant in Houston, TX, through its subsidiary, Coca-Cola Southwest Beverage (CCSWB). Arca, the first Latin American bottler to operate in the U.S., will invest $250 million in the facility in building the first Coca-Cola production plant in a decade.

According to the Houston Chronicle, the new plant will be at Pinto Business Park, a Hines-developed industrial park at Beltway 8 and Interstate 45, on Houston’s far north side. The factory is scheduled to begin operating in early 2020, and will offer five production lines, in-line blow molding and distribution facilities, warehouse and sales. The facility will allow CCSWB to serve the southeast Texas market.

Pinto Business Park is a 971-acre industrial park. When fully developed, it will accommodate up to seven-million square feet of build-to-suit and user-owned distribution, light manufacturing and corporate campus space.

The Connect Industrial conference will take place July 11. For more information, or to register, log on here.
