We had the opportunity to enjoy the cold, crisp taste of Coca-Cola today in West Memphis, Arkansas! Coca-Cola Consolidated announced plans to invest $25 million in its West Memphis facility, bringing their job count to 200. Thanks to Morgan Everett, Vice Chair of Coca-Cola Consolidated for making the trip to Arkansas for this great ribbon cutting. The City of West Memphis honored Morgan with a proclamation, recognizing today as Coca-Cola Consolidated Day, and highlighting the impact that this fifth-generation family business has on the community and on our state. Companies like Coca-Cola Consolidated are growing in Arkansas because of Arkansas’ competitive business costs, strong workforce, and the sound public policy enacted in Arkansas under Governor Sarah Sanders’ administration. Life tastes good in Arkansas - and it tastes even better with a Coke.- +1
