Nacogdoches Coca-Cola Plant to Lay Off 74 People

 

 

Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages (CCSWB) is committed to investing in our business in Texas. We remain focused on providing the highest quality products and best customer service.

 

Effective January 30, 2020, to optimize our supply chain network and bring greater efficiencies to our local operations, we are moving production volume from our Nacogdoches facility to our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Houston, Texas.   This will enable our company to more effectively utilize our production capacity.  While we are discontinuing use of four production lines within the manufacturing operations in Nacogdoches, our Distribution & Sales Center operations will continue for our frontline salespeople, warehouse, distribution, drivers, and merchandisers.  

 

We’ve informed our associates of this consolidation which could result in 74 job reductions, which will be made through attrition, filling roles in other locations, and where necessary, job elimination.   While difficult, these changes are helping us create a faster, leaner and more agile organization to accelerate growth in the local marketplace.  We do not take decisions about job impacts lightly and are committed to treating our people with dignity, fairness and respect throughout this process.

 

Eligible associates will be given an opportunity to apply for current open roles in our new Houston manufacturing facility and access job postings for roles at the Nacogdoches Distribution & Sales Center as well as across CCSWB.  

 

We remain committed to making a positive difference in the local Nacogdoches community where we live and work.  We’ll continue to support organizations and community initiatives as we’ve done for decades.
