Coca-Cola
Store Orlando Invites Guests to
Shop
Refreshed at Disney Springs
|
Orlando, FL – July
2016 / Newsmaker Alert / Coca-Cola
Store Orlando opened July 2 at Disney Springs, allowing guests to experience
the world’s most iconic beverage brand at a new immersive retail destination.
Just as Disney Springs is a one-of-a-kind Disney experience delivering
great dining, shopping and entertainment, Coca-Cola Store Orlando is uniquely
designed to showcase Coca-Cola
branded merchandise and entertaining experiences that inspire the senses.
Coca-Cola
Store Orlando is modeled after a 1920s Coca-Cola bottling plant. Celebrating
the history of Coca-Cola, the inviting brick exterior gives a nod to the
brand’s heritage while the glass-accented entry pays tribute to the iconic
Coca-Cola green glass bottle. Inside, guests are welcomed by a 30-foot-wide
blown-glass chandelier crafted from repurposed Coca-Cola bottles – just
one example of how this unique retail experience was designed with the
environment in mind. The store – one of only three retail locations operated
by The Coca-Cola Company in the United States – features a broad assortment
of Coca-Cola branded merchandise. A line of sustainable fashion apparel
and other handmade items crafted from recycled materials showcase the 5by20™
collection – an array of items created by women artisans from around the
world.

Coca-Cola Company.

both brands hold a special place in people’s hearts and minds. Now we’re
raising a glass to Coca-Cola Store Orlando, where Disney and Coca-Cola
