The production unit, which will include storage areas and the company’s offices, will have a total surface of some 50,000 square meters.
The factory will be developed in three stages, and in the first stage, which will be concluded in the second quarter of 2008, will involve the construction of the buildings and the startup of the new production lines.
With investments worth $40 million, the first stage will allow the company the produce canned noncarbonated soft drinks, a range currently imported from the Czech Republic.
In the next phase, which will be complete before 2010, currently functional production lines will be brought in, either from the QAB factory in Bucharest, or from the unit in Covasna, or from other production units of the company.
In the last phase, the company will widen the storage areas and auxiliary areas in the Militari factory.
