Lödige Industries modernises Swire Coca-Cola HK’s logistics backbone to boost throughput and operational efficiency

Lödige Industries, a leading provider of logistics systems, has successfully completed the comprehensive upgrade and refurbishment of the vertical pallet transport system at Swire Coca-Cola HK’s manufacturing facility in Shatin, Hong Kong. Completed in March 2026, the modernisation project increases throughput by enabling higher travelling speeds for hoists and conveyors, supporting the operational demands of one of Swire Coca-Cola’s largest and most critical beverage distribution hubs in Hong Kong.

To mark the completion of the project, Swire Coca-Cola HK hosted an official ceremony on May 28, 2026. Nicholas Tripptree, Managing Director of Asia-Pacific for Lödige Industries, joined the ribbon-cutting ceremony to offer his congratulations. Tripptree praised the close, collaborative partnership between the two companies and highlighted the newly modernised system’s role as a highly resilient backbone for Swire Coca-Cola HK’s daily logistics operations.

As the fifth-largest bottling partner of The Coca-Cola Company globally, Swire Coca-Cola HK holds the exclusive franchise rights to manufacture, market, and distribute Coca-Cola products across multiple key territories, including Greater China. The manufacturing facility in Shatin has been in operation since 1991. To support newly renovated, high-throughput production lines, the facility’s material transportation infrastructure, which previously relied on 11 legacy hoists and a conveyor system over 20 years old, required a comprehensive modernisation to eliminate operational bottlenecks.
