Coca-Cola Wilrijk avoids 50,000 truck kilometres with new warehouse

Coca-Cola European Partners at Dynamicalaan in Wilrijk has a production and distribution facility that produces 413 million litres of soft drinks annually, in both PET and glass packaging. Distribution is done from a high-bay warehouse with a capacity of 21,000 pallets. That facility is being expanded with a second 12-storey high-rise automated warehouse with a capacity of 9,400 additional pallets of beverage containers. That is comparable to 360 loaded trucks. Works will start in January 2019, with the new facility expected to be operational by March 2020.
