Embotelladora Don Jorge S.A.C. is a corporation involved in the manufacturing, distribution and marketing of nonalcoholic beverages based out of Lima, Peru. Its headquarters are located in the San Miguel District, Lima.[1]

[edit] History

In 1947 the company started bottling Coca-Cola in the Ica Region. In 1973 the military government threatened to ban the Coca-Cola brand from the Peruvian market and as a precaution the company started to bottle Inca Kola instead. In 2000 after the buy-out of Inca Kola by the Coca-Cola Company, Don Jorge decided as of that date to produce its own brands. Shortly after that in 2002 the company moved its plant and headquarters to Lima.[1]
