Brazil's orange juice pipeline to Team USA... Coke Engineers Its Orange Juice—With an Algorithm businessweek.com A short walk from Coke’s Auburndale plant, massive storage tanks encased in insulated buildings rise high above the flat Florida landscape. The silos are full of fresh-squeezed juice, chilled to a slushy 30F to 34F. The tanks are owned by Coca-Cola’s Brazilian partner in the juice wars, Cutrale, the global fruit procurer that processes the oranges that go into Coke’s juice brands. Together the companies buy almost a third of the 145 million boxes of oranges grown by more than 400 Florida growers. Coke and Cutrale educate growers on best practices and ensure that oranges are grown to Coke specifications. Cutrale’s experts use satellite imaging to monitor crops in Brazil, so they can order growers to pick their fruit at the optimal time dictated by Black Book. The companies constructed a 1.2-mile underground pipeline from Cutrale’s Orlando-area processing operation to Coke’s packaging plant to transport juice that previously required 70 tanker-truck trips daily.
