Coca-Cola Consolidated is deepening its long-term commitment to Indianapolis, USA, with a USD 35 million investment that will expand local manufacturing capabilities.
The company plans to add a new bottle production line to its Indianapolis facility specifically for bottling beverages in glass bottles. Construction of the new line is anticipated to begin in late 2026.
This expansion is expected to create 15 to 20 new full‑time jobs and initiate additional economic activity through construction, suppliers and local services. This local investment by Coca-Cola Consolidated positions Indianapolis as a key production hub within the Coca‑Cola System, making this facility one of only three in the nation to bottle beverages in glass.
“This expansion is another example of how we strategically invest in our business to build a solid operational foundation and create opportunities for our teammates in the communities where they live and work.” said Dave Katz, President and Chief Operating Officer at Coca-Cola Consolidated. “We are excited about the impact this investment will have in the local community and look forward to continuing our long-standing relationships with dedicated community partners.”
Operating since 1968, the Indianapolis facility currently houses four production lines, two PET and rPET bottle lines and two can lines. It also includes a production warehouse and champions the company’s sustainability focus areas.
