Earlier this summer, I had the pleasure of visiting Traverse City, MI with my husband and daughter. There are 33 wineries on the two peninsulas near Traverse City, and we visited a few to check out what's being produced and bottled. What goes into wine-making and bottling? While I did not have the pleasure of a plant tour on this trip, we did secure a plant story for this issue from The Wine Group in Livermore, CA. The Wine Group is one of the largest wine producers in the world, distributing more than 60 million cases of wine each year. In this case study on page 28, you can read about the group's recent purchase of accumulation and end of line packaging, all to increase efficiency and minimize downtime.
