COCA-COLA Singapore Beverages (CCSB) will close its bottling plant in Tuas by February next year, but it has also committed to invest over US$100 million in its Singapore operations over the next five years to move up the value-chain.
About 200 employees in Singapore will be affected by the plant's closure, said CCSB, which will be moving its bottling plant operations to Malaysia.
