Project Details

Coca Cola Beverages began as a single bottling operation in Laconia, NH in 1977 and over the past 4 decades has grown into one of the nation’s largest Coco Cola bottlers with over 3,500 associates in 33 locations.  The company bottles, sells and distributes brands owned by Coca Cola Company, Keurig, Dr. Pepper, Monster Energy Corp, Fairlife and Body Armor.  Coca Cola Buffalo services Erie County and other Counties within New York State.  Kirin Holdings Company, Ltd is the sole shareholder of the company.

 

The project consists of two adjacent parcels of land located at 150 and 200 Milens Road in the Town of Tonawanda.  Phase I of the project includes the demolition of a 14,490 sq. ft. former trucking facility at 150 Milens Rd. followed by the construction of a building consisting of 20,000 sq. ft. of office space and 43,000 sq. ft. of new warehouse space on the site.  Upon completion of Phase I, CCBNE will transfer operations from the warehouse located at 200 Milens Rd. to the newly constructed warehouse at 150 Milens Rd.  Phase II of the project begins with the demolition of the existing 88,121 sq. ft. warehouse at 200 Milens Rd.  Following the demolition, a new 49,000 sq. ft. warehouse will be constructed on the site.  Evidence of lead paint and/or asbestos has been found within 2 buildings being demolished.

 

The investment of just over $21,000,000 into these two newly constructed, state of the art facilities will lead to an increase in overall efficiency and will allow for the retention of the existing 124 jobs.

 

The company has indicated that should additional sales growth be achieved in the future, additional job opportunities may become available .
