Niagara Bottling began construction of its Elsmere facility in early 2025 at the C5 Airport East Logistics Center. The 52-acre site was developed by CORE5 Industrial Partners and supported by state and local officials. The new facility includes over 436,000 sq. ft. of advanced manufacturing space, including beverage production and distribution operations.

“Kentucky’s leading manufacturing industry and companies like Niagara Bottling are investing in our people and helping fuel our record-breaking success,” says Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear. “I want to congratulate the company’s leaders on this wonderful milestone and look forward to seeing their success here in the commonwealth.”

Niagara Bottling, headquartered in Diamond Bar, California, is a family-owned and operated company founded in 1963, when Andrew Peykoff Sr. started bottling high-quality, low-cost water in 5-gallon glass containers for home and office delivery. Niagara has since grown into a beverage manufacturer that works closely with some of the largest beverage brands, retailers, grocers, club and convenience stores throughout the country. The company produces a variety of beverages, including bottled water, sparkling, vitamin and flavored water, sports drinks, ready-to-drink tea and coffee and protein drinks. 

In addition, Niagara Bottling can receive resources from Kentucky’s workforce service providers. Those include no-cost recruitment and job placement services, reduced-cost customized training and job-training incentives.
