The Coca-Cola Company
Gray Develops Customer Relationship over a Decade
For more than a decade, The Coca-Cola Company has trusted the Gray family of companies to provide engineering, technical, and management services for its manufacturing and research & development facilities. The latest project in this long and successful relationship was a new R&D facility.
Gray’s experience working with the world’s largest beverage manufacturer and distributor stretches back years. Over that time, the team developed a thorough knowledge of the customer’s processes and organizational structure to complement Gray’s expansive experience in the food & beverage industry.
This history with Coca-Cola includes dozens of larger projects and countless smaller orders for process engineering work. Much of this work has been focused in the Greater Atlanta area, where the customer’s corporate headquarters are located, which has opened the opportunity for close, frequent collaboration.
Through continuous collaboration, Gray has developed a knack for understanding Coca-Cola’s needs and goals. Having the opportunity to work with a customer so consistently over the years adds a special touch to the relationship—an aspect that reflects Gray’s core value of being customer and relationship driven.
“Having worked with Coca-Cola’s process development group for years, our team feels almost like an extension of the Coca-Cola team.” says Jeff Rehm, director of process engineering for Gray AES.
Coca-Cola’s latest project with Gray in Apopka, FL, required a wide array of services from Gray, from equipment specifications and vendor management to commissioning and startup.
