The investment will be the biggest single investment ever made in the company’s Australian manufacturing network to deliver more beverages with greater efficiency to more customers
Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP) has announced plans to invest an additional $105.5 million for a new Warmfill Line at the Moorabbin plant in Victoria, Australia. This substantial investment marks the largest single contribution to the company’s Australian manufacturing network, reinforcing its commitment to delivering high-quality beverages with enhanced efficiency to a broader customer base.
The new Warmfill Line that will produce Powerade and Fuze Tea is central to CCEP’s overall ambitions across investment, growth and sustainability in Australia. Sports Drinks are projected to be one of the fastest growing categories in non-alcoholic ready-to-drink (NARTD) in the future as consumers continue to focus on health and wellbeing, particularly in no-sugar variants which have experienced significant recent growth.
In response to the increased demand for products from these production lines, the new Warmfill Line upgrade will form part of the existing state-of-the-art manufacturing facility at Moorabbin and will boost the capacity of the Warmfill network in Australia, delivering more beverages with greater efficiency to customers across Victoria, Tasmania, and South Australia.
