Coca-Cola beverages are now available in Culver’s stores in the United States. This comes after the restaurant chain decided to ditch Pepsi and switch to Coca-Cola products.
Culver’s confirmed to WISN 12 News on Wednesday, Jan. 18, that it has replaced Pepsi products in its almost 900 restaurant outlets across 26 states. The company said that while it is switching to Coca-Cola beverages, other favorite drinks in its stores will still be available.
This means that customers will have to swap Pepsi and Mountain Dew with Coke and its diet varieties when dining for their favorite ButterBurger and cheese curds. Culver's spokesperson explained that this shift is currently in progress and will probably take time before the switch is completed in more than two dozen states.
As per Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, some of the drinks that will still remain as Pepsi drinks depart include Culver's Signature Root Beer, Dr. Pepper, Diet Root Beer, and freshly brewed sweetened and unsweetened tea. In any case, when asked when the transition started, the company did not provide an answer.
There is no information about the time frame for the completion of the switch as well. It was further noted that Culver’s did not say why it made the decision to replace Pepsi with Coca-Cola products.
"We would like to remind our guests that in addition to Coca-Cola products, many favorites including Culver’s Signature Root Beer, Diet Root Beer, Dr. Pepper, and fresh brewed sweetened and unsweetened tea are also available to enjoy with their fresh, never frozen ButterBurger," Eric Skrum, Culver’s spokesman, said in a statement.
Meanwhile, it was reported that customers’ expressed different reactions regarding Culver’s move to ditch Pepsi for Coke. Some liked the idea as Coca-Cola has more diet and zero varieties, but others were not thrilled about the change.
