Crown Celebrates Opening of Beverage Can Facility in Mexico

Crown officially opened its new beverage can plant in Monterrey on August 29, 2017, expanding its operations in Mexico and supporting growing demand for metal packaging from consumers and brand owners. A special grand opening event drew corporate members of the Company, regional and state officials, customers, as well as vendors and suppliers.

The plant, the Company’s fourth beverage can facility in Mexico, supplies aluminum two-piece beverage cans in multiple sizes to customers in the region, which is experiencing dynamic economic expansion.

The construction of the Monterrey plant supports the local economy by creating new jobs, and also fulfills the needs of Crown’s customers in the beer and soft drink markets, some of which took part to celebrate the grand opening.

The new plant joins four other Crown Mexico locations that produce aluminum ends and caps, glass bottles, food cans, industrial cans and aerosols.
