Free Coca-Cola is available today at a handful of Chattanooga locations as Chattanooga Coca-Cola Bottling Company marks 115 years to the day of existing in the Scenic City.

At a groundbreaking ceremony this morning for Coke's new $62 million-dollar regional distribution center at the old Olan Mills site off W. Shepard Road, Chattanooga division vice president Darren Hodges announced that Chattanooga Coke is giving away Coca-Cola products at area Wal-Mart and Bi-Lo stores, in addition to Hamilton Place and the Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport.

The first 115 customers to Wal-Mart and Bi-Lo stores received free Cokes starting at 1:15 p.m.

Between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., free Cokes were given to folks at the airport.

Starting at 2 p.m., Coke United is giving Cokes to customers at Hamilton Place Mall. Freebies will be available there until 7 p.m. today.
