International beverage manufacturer Frucor Suntory is set to open a new +$400 million beverage manufacturing facility in Swanbank with support from the Queensland Government.
Frucor Suntory is considered a market leader in the energy drinks category and has a wide variety of beverages in its portfolio.
Once complete, the facility will have the immediate capability to produce up to 20 million cases of drinks each year, with the ability to be significantly scaled up in the future.
The multi-beverage facility will include beverage processing, packaging, warehousing and distribution, strengthening the company’s ability to service its customers and the growing Australian market.
The project will create approximately 450 construction and installation jobs, and once operational in mid-2024 will support 160 long-term roles.
Frucor Suntory has huge growth plans and CEO Darren Fullerton tells us why they are building their future here in Queensland.
