Shanghai - May 23, 2006
Coca Cola Plant
| The
Coca-Cola Company first opened bottling plants in Shanghai and
Tianjin in 1927. A third plant opened in Qingdao in 1930.
After a 30-year absence from the country, The Coca-Cola Company
re-entered China in 1979, following the re-establishment of
relations between China and the United States. Coca-ColaŽ was
the first American consumer product to return to China.
The first new Coca-Cola plant in China following re-entry was
built in Beijing in 1980. The Coca-Cola system now has a total
of 28 bottling companies and 34 bottling plants in China. We were not allowed to film inside the plant but we were able to walk through and see it operating. For more information: http://www2.coca-cola.com/ourcompany/cfs/cfs_china.html |

 All that Coke, so little time. |
