CRE Market Beat Take
An $84 million reinvestment into an existing Orlando distribution asset highlights how some occupiers are prioritizing modernization and automation within current footprints over new ground-up expansion.

Coke Florida has wrapped up an $84 million overhaul of its distribution and bottling center in Orlando, delivering a fully revamped industrial facility designed around modern production and logistics needs.

The 180,000-square-foot building at 3095 Eunice Ave. was taken down to the shell and rebuilt to accommodate new state-of-the-art equipment. The full gut renovation reflects a shift toward more technologically advanced beverage distribution and manufacturing environments, with the existing footprint reconfigured to align with updated process flows.

According to reporting from the Orlando Business Journal, the upgraded Orlando facility now incorporates advanced automated warehouse technology. The automation is intended to enhance the speed and accuracy of order handling while supporting more reliable service levels for customers across the region.

The Eunice Avenue property is one of multiple assets in Coke Florida’s Orlando-area industrial network. The company also operates a 392,000-square-foot facility at 2900 Mercy Drive, which originally delivered in 1969. While that nearby building remains in use, the newly renovated site provides an updated platform for production and distribution within the same market.

Coke Florida is described as the sixth-largest Coca-Cola bottler in the U.S., with more than 5,000 employees across its operations. Its statewide footprint includes four manufacturing facilities and 18 sales and distribution centers, underscoring a broad logistics and production presence within its territory.

Central Florida accounts for nearly 1,000 Coke Florida associates working across sales, manufacturing, distribution and professional services roles. The investment in the Orlando renovation is positioned to support those functions by aligning the facility with current equipment standards and automated warehouse capabilities.

In addition to its size within the bottling system, the company is noted as the eighth-largest private beverage fleet in the U.S. This transportation capacity, combined with the modernized Orlando distribution hub, is intended to support more efficient product movement and service coverage across Coke Florida’s Central Florida market.
