One of the nation\u2019s largest bottlers of Coca-Cola products is planning to spend $42 million to expand its operations on San Antonio \u2019s East Side. Arca Continental Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages said Wednesday the project includes a warehouse expansion, new parking lot and installation of a new can line. The investment is needed to accommodate increasing production at its facility at 1 Coca-Cola Place near the Frost Bank Center.
\u201cOur territory is one of the fastest growing regions in the United States,\u201d Jean Claude Tissot, president of Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages, said in a statement. \u201cOur expansion plans are aligned with the ongoing growth we are experiencing in San Antonio and beyond. We want to ensure we are keeping up with the demand in the communities we serve.\u201d The Dallas-based company said it bottles Coca-Cola products for more than 31 million customers in Texas, parts of Oklahoma, New Mexico and Arkansas. It employs nearly 800 people in San Antonio and more than 8,800 at seven production plants and 37 distribution facilities across the United States. It\u2019s part of publicly traded Mexico holding company Arca Continental, the second-largest Coca-Cola bottler in Latin America. The Monterrey-based company says it serves more than 125 million consumers in northern and western Mexico, Ecuador, Peru, northern Argentina and the Southwestern U.S. It also distributes salty snacks under the brands Bokados in Mexico, Inalecsa in Ecuador and Wise in the United States. Through the first nine months of 2024, Arca Continental reported a sales increase of more than 5% and net income up more than 10% from the same period in 2023. A year after acquiring the Southwestern U.S. territory in 2017, the company began construction of a $250 million production and distribution plant in Houston that opened in 2020. Last year, it began a three-year, $168 million expansion of its plant in Fort Worth. Construction in San Antonio is expected to begin March 5. \u201cOur current priority is to be a people-driven, digital bottler,\u201d Tissot said. \u201cThe investments we are making at our San Antonio facility will help us continue to achieve this goal and better serve our customers.\u201
