In terms of innovation and infrastructure, the project has an area of 43,500 square meters (which is more than 5 times the area of the Doroteo Guamuch Flores National Stadium), a capacity of over 12,000 pallets (6 times the current storage capacity), 29 dispatch doors, and a product selection system via automated voice command

Attached to customer demand, a large complex was built that guarantees the productivity and efficiency of operations, composed of full web structures, lattice structures, and large-scale spatial structures.

The project was developed with the advice of the Guatemala Green Building Council, a sustainable building council that seeks to promote best design practices in the country.

This distribution center will generate 22 percent of its energy through solar panels, and the remainder through other renewable energy sources. Additionally, it features waste management, a water treatment plant, and a 45 percent water efficiency system. The foregoing translates into 46 percent energy efficiency, with which this new PepsiCo facility will be applying for LEED certification.

STRUCTURE
