This move is set to bolster the production of Powerade and Fuze Tea, catering to the growing demand for sports drinks and no-sugar variants. 

Construction of the new warmfill line will include a 4,200 square-metre manufacturing hall and a high-speed 640 bottles per minute Nitro-Warmfill line. The new line will be able to produce up to 17.8 million unit cases annually.

It will also involve significant upgrades to existing infrastructure such as water treatment and electrical systems.

CCEP Australia managing director Orlando Rodriguez said: “By installing a new line in Moorabbin (VIC), we will be able to increase the capacity of the warmfill network in Australia and continue to distribute more of our great products locally. 

“Our commitment to supporting growth within the sports category is integral to our overall expansion goals, underlining our steadfast belief in this sector.
