The Soda King franchise includes the setup of a complete bottling plant with a production capacity of 1 500 litres of carbonated cold drinks / water per hour.

The fully installed and commissioned factory plant is extremely simple and safe to operate, and requires minimum maintenance. The factory plant staff compliment of 13 x PAX is professionally trained by the plant supplier and the franchisor during commissioning.

In addition, the franchisee and the sales staff undergo a rigorous training programme prior to, during and after the commissioning of the plant. On-going support is also provided by the franchisor.

The production consists of combining water, syrup and CO2 – basically requiring electricity, packaging and manual labour. Soda King labels and concentrates are purchased from the franchisor, whilst the other raw materials (sugar, CO2, shrink wrap, bottles and screw-on tops) are purchased from franchisor nominated suppliers.

The final bottled products are either shrink-wrapped or packed in plastic crates to be distributed.

The PET plastic bottle stretch blow moulding machine enables franchisees to blow their own bottles, allowing a cost saving of 35% - 45% compared to purchasing bottles from an outside supplier. This also opens up a separate opportunity of blowing plastic bottles for other PET bottle users.

The required premise is only 400m² - 500m² and should be equipped with clean water supply and 380V & 220V electricity points. Soda King will assist franchisees with the appropriate site selection and rent negotiation.

The water purification systems entails an ultra-filtration system that purifies potable water from a public distribution system. It removes all impurities and bacteria present in the water to supply neutral tasting H2O. The system is currently one of the best available.

The bottling plant carries a six-month manufacturer's warranty. To view images of the factory process, click HERE.
