Congresswoman Shontel Brown (D-11) recently visited ABARTA Coca-Cola’s Bedford Heights bottling facility, an important part of Ohio’s beverage industry and local manufacturing economy. During the tour, COO Jim Dinderman and members of the ABARTA Coca-Cola leadership team highlighted more than $20 million in recent investments at the facility, including new production equipment that has helped increase output to more than 8 million cases of product and counting.
Visits like this give policymakers a firsthand look at the jobs, innovation, and community impact supported by Ohio’s beverage companies. We appreciate congressional leadership that recognizes the value of a predictable regulatory environment and helps keep Ohio an attractive place for businesses to invest, grow, and serve communities across the state.
