How many Coca-Cola bottling plants closed in 2025 and where were they located

1. What the record says: three confirmed 2025 closures and two more cited by outlets

Multiple contemporaneous reports identify American Canyon (Napa County) as slated to close by June 30, 2025, affecting 135 jobs (San Francisco Chronicle / SF Gate coverage summarized by reporting) ^{[1] [6]}. Earlier notices and reporting show the Modesto facility’s shutdown affected 101 jobs and was slated for early 2025 after a WARN filing ^[2]. Local coverage also records Reyes Coca‑Cola Bottling’s permanent closure of its long‑running Salinas distribution site in mid‑2025, putting dozens of jobs at risk ^[3]. Several outlets — Yahoo, Geekspin and others — aggregate these and other actions and count five U.S. production and distribution sites closed or closing in 2025, spanning California, Florida and Massachusetts ^{[4] [7] [8]}.

2. Locations and job counts cited in reporting

The most specific location and workforce figures are: American Canyon (Napa County), California — 135 jobs impacted, closure by June 30, 2025 ^{[1] [6]}; Modesto, California — 101 jobs, plant closure effective in early 2025 per the WARN filing ^[2]; Salinas, California — a Reyes Coca‑Cola distribution site permanently closed with “dozens” of jobs affected ^[3]. Aggregators and local outlets report additional sites (including a Florida closure earlier and a Northampton, Massachusetts facility long flagged for shutdown) bringing some tallies to “five” sites and “nearly 900” workers affected when combined ^{[7] [4] [8]}.

3. Northampton, Massachusetts: planned but delayed, still in flux

Reporting going back to Coca‑Cola’s restructuring shows Northampton was flagged for closure in previous years and continued to be characterized as at risk in 2025, with some outlets projecting up to ~300 positions exposed and characterizing the closure as long‑anticipated but delayed ^{[8] [9]}. Some 2025 summaries list Northampton among the five U.S. sites involved in the broader wave of cuts, but local closure timing and definitive 2025 shutdown confirmation vary across sources ^{[4] [8]}.

4. A Hawaii site reported in December 2025 coverage — outside mid‑year reporting but included in later accounts

A Star‑Advertiser item reports the 65‑year‑old Mapunapuna bottling plant in Honolulu will be decommissioned at the end of January (publication notes December 3, 2025) and that 25 employees will be affected; that report is in the results you supplied but is dated late in the year and therefore part of the broader 2025/2025 reporting cycle rather than the mid‑2025 wave ^[5]. Available sources do not mention whether that closure was counted in the mid‑2025 five‑site total (not found in current reporting).

5. Why these closures are happening, per reporting

Sources attribute the closures to Coca‑Cola’s “asset right” or restructuring strategy: shifting production to third‑party co‑packers, greater automation, and concentrating on brand management rather than direct bottling. Reporting cites company statements and regulatory notices indicating production volumes will move to co‑packers such as Refresco or regional partners ^{[1] [10] [11]}.

6. Numbers diverge across outlets; scale vs. local impact

National news summaries and aggregators put the tally at five U.S. sites and “nearly 900” jobs affected, reflecting combined impacts across several closures and WARN notices ^{[4] [8]}. Local outlets provide site‑level precision (e.g., 135 jobs in American Canyon, 101 in Modesto) but do not uniformly confirm every closure listed by aggregators; that produces the reporting range from three clearly documented 2025 shutdowns to as many as five closures counted by some outlets ^{[1] [2] [3] [4]}.

7. Limits of available reporting and what’s not yet documented

Available sources do not mention a single, company‑published master list counting every 2025 closure or reconciling the discrepancies between local WARN notices and aggregator tallies; Coca‑Cola’s own consolidated statement listing exact site closures in 2025 is not found in current reporting (not found in current reporting). Some items in your results reference earlier or later years and planned closures that were delayed, so timing and inclusion in the 2025 count vary by source ^{[9] [12]}.

8. Bottom line for readers

If you need a conservative, source‑verifiable count, cite the three sites with explicit 2025 closure notices in local reporting: American Canyon (Napa County), Modesto and Salinas (all in California) with job impacts of roughly 135, 101 and “dozens,” respectively ^{[1] [2] [3]}. If you prefer the broader industry summaries frequently cited in national aggregation pieces, note that multiple outlets report five U.S. production/distribution sites and nearly 900 jobs affected, including additional listings such as Northampton, Massachusetts and a Florida site ^{[4] [7] [8]}.
