The Dominican Republic will supply the Gatorade demand in the Caribbean. A new manufacturing plant located in the Haina Industrial plant has been built with an investment of US$25 million. It operates using natural gas, and has hi-tech lighting. While taking US Ambassador Raul Izaguirre on a guided tour of the plant, company chairman Jose Luis Corripio told him that it was one of the most modern Gatorade bottling plants in the world with a bottling capacity of 800,000 units per day. As of next month it will begin exporting to Puerto Rico. "100% of the sales in Puerto Rico will be shipped from Haina and all Caribbean islands will source from the country," said Corripio.
