The investment includes the construction of a new 360,000-square-foot- facility which will provide the company with enhanced accessibility to its beverage distributors in the Southern region. Operations are scheduled to begin in the second half of 2025.
“We are proud to contribute to the economic development of Montgomery, and deeply grateful to the city, state, and community leaders for their continued support,” said Marsha McIntosh, President of North America Supply at Diageo. “The new facility will not only bring our business closer to our customers and distributors in the South, but also enable our broader supply network to operate more efficiently and sustainably. This investment underscores our commitment to building greater resiliency into our supply chain across North America.”
Diageo’s brands include Johnnie Walker, Crown Royal, J&B and Buchanan’s whiskies, Smirnoff, Cîroc and Ketel One vodkas, Captain Morgan, Baileys, Don Julio, Tanqueray and Guinness.
“As an industry giant with operations that span the globe, Diageo represents an impressive addition to Alabama’s business community,” noted Ellen McNair, Secretary of the Alabama Department of Commerce. “Diageo’s decision to establish this production facility in Montgomery signals the company’s confidence in Alabama as a prime location to help accelerate its growth plans.”
“We are proud that Diageo has chosen a CSX Select Site for their new beverage distribution plant,” added Christina Bottomley, CSX Vice President of Business Development and Real Estate. “This partnership highlights the value of rail’s efficiency and sustainability in meeting growing demand, creating jobs, and strengthening the local economy. It also underscores CSX’s dedication to supporting our customers at every stage, from site selection to ongoing service and beyond.”
