CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) - Officials with Coca-Cola Bottling Co. United are looking at expanding in Chattanooga.
The Chattanooga Times Free Press reported the company is looking for land to build a new state-of-the art facility for distribution and sales. Officials said they want to invest $67 million in a 290,000 square-foot facility, which would add 43 new jobs over the next year.
The Chattanooga Coca-Cola plant opened more than a century ago and was the first franchised bottler of Coke.
