Crown Holdings, Inc. announced that it will build a new beverage can manufacturing facility in Bowling Green, KY. The state-of-the-art plant will supply beverage cans for a variety of categories including sparkling water, energy drinks, carbonated soft drinks, teas, nutritional beverages, hard seltzers, craft beers and cocktails.

“Beverage can growth in North America is being driven by the growing proportion of new products being introduced in cans versus other packaging, as both customers and consumers recognize the inherent portability, durability and sustainability of the beverage can,” said Timothy J. Donahue, president and CEO. “This new facility demonstrates Crown’s commitment to support its customers in meeting this growing demand.”

Located in the Kentucky Transpark, the 327,000 square foot facility is expected to begin operations in 2Q 2021 and create 126 new jobs.
