Coca-Cola is building a new distribution centre in Kingston’s east end.
The $1.5-million facility will be built at 800 Innovation Dr. near the Pittsburgh Machin Soccer Fields.
The current facility is located on Railway Street, and employs 80 people.
According to Kate Lucynzski, general manager of Coca-Cola Canada Bottling Ltd., the new facility will be “job neutral,” meaning no positions will be added or eliminated.
