Read MoreHide Full Article
Owens-Illinois, Inc. (OI - Free Report) recently secured a multi-year contract from Reed’s, Inc. (REED - Free Report) to supply glass containers. Per the contract, Owens-Illinois will provide bottles in order to expand the reach of Reed’s all-natural craft beverages.
Based in Los Angeles, CA, Reed's develops, manufactures and markets top-selling sodas in natural foods markets. The latest deal with Owens-Illinois will simplify Reed's supply chain and drive significant cost savings.

In addition to the above, the contract will assist Owens-Illinois to cope with contraction in the beer market and negative impact of hurricanes in North America sales in the fourth quarter.

For 2017, Owens-Illinois remains on track to achieve all financial targets, including volume growth, margin, adjusted earnings, and cash flow. Its focus on simplifying the organization and boosting productivity will drive long-term growth.
Moreover, the company continues to successfully execute its strategic initiatives in commercial activities, end-to-end supply chain management and working capital reduction.
