Strategically located for efficient East and West Coast distribution, it supports both low- and high-acid product lines for cold fill and features advanced aseptic and PET technology for cartons, bottles and more.

PCP is equipped to produce a broad range of beverage types, including juices, blended juices, fresh-brewed iced teas, plant- and nut-based milks, protein drinks, and electrolyte beverages. The facility is in full compliance with regulatory standards, ensuring an expedited path to production approval. 

Beyond day-to-day production, Pittston Co-Packers also offers product development and commercialization services, including R&D assistance (on-site pilot runs, plant trials, recipe formulation and ingredient sourcing), in-house coordination of graphic design and packaging development. 

The new operation was developed by seasoned industry veterans, including CEO, Christopher J. Reed, founder of Reed’s, Inc. and California Custom Beverage. Joining him is John P. Holzemer, a seasoned plant operator with over 38 years of experience managing beverage plants, previously of fairlife, LLC and The Coca-Cola Company. 

“Having founded a leading beverage brand and working in the industry for 38 years (and counting), I understand the unique challenges brands of all sizes are facing today,” said Reed. “At Pittston Co-Packers, we want to meet brands wherever they are in their journey and provide them with turnkey, scalable solutions to accelerate their growth.” 

Pittston is in the middle of contracting 25 million out of their 39 million case capacity of annual production, with a goal of adding 20 million more cases of production capacity by 2027. 

“When you’re producing at a national scale, there’s no room for shortcuts,” said Holzemer. “We’ve built our facility to meet the highest expectations — from compliance to consistency. We are investing to make this plant a world class facility.”
