"This opportunity comes as the existing lease at 3200 Wildwood Plaza expires at the end of the year and is part of the ongoing enhancement and consolidation of facilities made possible by The Coca-Cola Company’s acquisition of Coca-Cola Enterprises’ former North America operations in 2010," according to a Coca-Cola memo posted on the Atlanta Business Chronicle's website. "The move will combine most of our IT teams currently located at the 3200 Wildwood building and the Atlanta Office Complex (AOC) in a new office location near the AOC."
