Delivering on its promise of progress in Tarlac

Coca-Cola Europacific Aboitiz Philippines Tarlac plant breaks ground in September 2025 on its new 42-hectare, state-of-the-art manufacturing hub within TARI Estate.

The 384-hectare Tarlac Agro-Industrial Growth Corridor (TARI) Estate is steadily realizing its vision of progress with major milestones and global investments. In just over a year, TARI Estate has attracted multiple locators occupying more than 60 hectares, led by two global manufacturing giants-Coca-Cola Europacific Aboitiz Philippines (CCEAP) and Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation (APC).

CCEAP is the official bottling partner and distributor of Coca Cola products in the Philippines and currently building a state-of-the-art 42-hectare manufacturing facility at TARI Estate. This project is considered to be among the largest Coca-Cola investments globally and a major milestone for Central Luzon's industrial growth.
