Join radio personalities Larry Whitler and Robin MacBlane on another captivating journey as they explore the dynamic transformation of Ocala's landscape in our latest episode of "The World Spins Fine On Her Own." In this installment, we delve into the exciting shift from the old Pepsi-Cola Distribution Center to its impressive new location within the Florida Crossroads Commerce Park.

Last month, Pepsico marked a significant milestone with the grand opening of its expansive facility at 13570 SW 57th Avenue Rd in Ocala. Situated strategically just across from the Dollar Tree and Family Dollar Distribution Centers, the new Pepsi building dwarfs its predecessor in size and functionality.

For years, Pepsi Bottling Group operated out of a modest 24,005 square-foot property at 525 SW 16th Street. But now, with the unveiling of the new 251,000 square-foot facility, Pepsico has stepped into a new era of efficiency and scale.

Florida Crossroads Commerce Park, conveniently located a mere two miles from I-75, holds a pivotal position in Ocala's economic landscape. With its proximity to major cities like Jacksonville, Orlando, and Tampa, each just a one- to two-hour drive away, the park serves as a strategic hub for distribution and commerce.

Join us as we uncover the story behind Pepsico's expansion and discover the driving forces shaping Ocala's future. Don't miss out on this insightful exploration on "The World Spins Fine On Her Own." Subscribe now for more fascinating insights into the ever-evolving world around us!
