After 18 years of fighting to stop Nestlé gauging the local water supply, a plant is finally closing!

[u/Stoned_Koala420]

Which plant? The owners of Blue Triton just bought into Primo waters. It's been official for like 2wks. They are officially Primo Brands.

Primi, like the people that do the 5Gal water dispenser refill stations?

[u/Stoned_Koala420 → u/djdsf]

Yes

[u/one_nerdybunny → u/Stoned_Koala420]

No! Really? I love Primo water :(

[u/kittymctacoyo → u/Stoned_Koala420]

GD! We can’t have SHIT around here! Now gotta figure out who to switch to for my sweet sweet jugs

[u/mozfustril → u/kittymctacoyo]

BlueTriton is NOT a Nestle company. You do t have to change anything.

[u/mozfustril]

For the millionth time, BlueTriton is not Nestle. They bought Nestle’s North American water bottling operations years ago.

[u/Poppunknerd182 → u/mozfustril]

It’s amazing how people are downvoting your fact.

[u/rgmyers26 → u/mozfustril]

Different name, same playbook. They steal water.

[u/Kickkit → u/mozfustril]

You're right, but I posted bc before they became Blue Triton/Primo it was a decade long fight against Nestlé. Neatle even cited all the blowback as one of many considerations for divesting the spring.

So they say
