and then make sure they are where they need to be...”
“So where do we fit into that big US company you’ve heard so much about? Well, we’re
a subsidiary of Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc – the world’s largest producer and distributor
of the Coca-Cola Company’s products. Their head office is in Atlanta in the USA.
Our head office is little nearer to home – Uxbridge, Middlesex to be precise.” More
