– Its two factories will become modern, multifunctional production, service and logistics centers.
– The start up of the plan means a 4.4 million Euro investment.

Santa Cruz de Tenerife, October 5, 2011 – Compa??a Cervecera de Canarias has decided to give a new boost to the modernisation of its two factories in Santa Cruz and Las Palmas, to increase business and customer service competitiveness as well as its presence in the local and mainland markets. The modernisation includes an advanced storage system adapted to the new business tendencies.

The start up of the plan represents a 4.4 million Euro investment in its two factories in Tenerife and Gran Canaria. The factories will become modern multifunctional production, service and logistics centers and will be better integrated into their surroundings.

The modernisation project will be carried out in several stages. It stands to save more than three million Euros in the production process through new machinery allowing a reduction in energy consumption and the production of new formats for its brands.

Other important parts of the plan include embellishing the facilities’ exteriors in order to achieve a better integration with their surroundings, as well as a 1.3 million euro investment in a new storage system, which will mean the installation of new machinery. This will increase the storage area by up to 18,840 square feet with a capacity of 2,750 pallets. Also, it will prepare the facilities for the possibility of outsourcing the warehouse management, contributing to the industrial development of the islands.

With this measure, the Company increases its potential for development, enabling the development of new projects like exports to mainland Spain and other markets. It also facilitates future growth, assuring employment, investment and activity in all its work places.
