Pepsi Cola plant marks 20 years of growth and expansion
The Pepsi-Cola Bottling Co. marks its 20th anniversary with a grand opening of a new Louise Street plant at 18th and Louise. The facility, designed by local architects, features a 21,000 square foot one story building housing bottling equipment capable of 450 cases an hour. Beecher Kurtz, president, and his wife Ruth, lead the company which began at 1736 Pearl St. in Tipton County and now produces Squirt and Pepsi-Cola drinks with a fleet of 12 trucks. The firm expects a sharp rise in annual sales over the two-decade span.
