Arca Continental has announced that its Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages subsidiary will build a new production and distribution plant in Houston.

Arca Continental, based in Monterrey, Mexico, is the first Latin American bottler to operate in the Coca-Cola system in the United States. The company has been in the system for a little more than a year, and is now investing $250 million in an almost 1 million square feet plant that is scheduled to begin operating in early 2020.
