Coke Florida is currently developing a new state-of-the-art facility for its Tampa Sales and Distribution Center in Brandon, Florida. The facility will sit on a 156-acre parcel located on U.S. Highway 301 between the Selmon Expressway and Causeway Boulevard. Coke Florida currently has 800 employees across sales, manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, fleet operations, and professional services. The new facility will bring new jobs and allow those in current positions together on one campus to improve the speed and accuracy of Coke’s operations. Groundbreaking was in June and construction is estimated to take 24 to 36 months.

Coke Florida was approved in March 2020 to move forward with its development plans. Coke Florida received approval for 1.8 million square feet of new commercial development, including retail, hotel, and office space. 1.4 million square feet of the 1.8 million approved will be used for Coke’s manufacturing, production, distribution, and fleet uses. Site plans will include the following uses:

• 344,956 square feet of product warehouse
• 341,582 square feet of distribution space
• 391,442 square feet of product packaging space
• 96,969 square feet of utilities space
• 38,638 square feet of office space
