Fremont Beverages has been quenching the thirst of new Pepsi generations for almost 47 years. Thanks to a chance meeting with a Denver Pepsi-Cola bottler in 1945, Newell Sargent decided to leave his employment at George W. Clayton College for Boys and venture into the soft drink business. A two year search for a small bottling plant led Mr. Sargent and his wife, Mabel, to Worland, Wyoming. The Sargents sold their home and borrowed money from both their parents and an Aunt, and purchased the Worland Bottling Plant. They opened for business as Pepsi-Cola Bottling Company in June of 1947. The one-production-line operation bottled two flavors - Pepsi-Cola and Nesbitt Orange. In the early days at 821 Pulliam in Worland, Mr. Sargent batched and Mrs. Sargent ran the twelve spout Diamond filler. Two full time employees completed the work force that produced, sold and distributed 1100 cases a week. It was a modest beginning to a Company that now employs over 1000 people with 29 facilities operating in a five state region, and producing 48 flavors and brands in bottles, cans and juice packs.
Among the many flavors produced and distributed by Fremont and Admiral Beverages are: Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Caffiene Free Pepsi, Mountain Dew, 7UP, Dr. Pepper, Crystal Pepsi, A&W Root beer, Slice, Nehi grape, Sunglo, Orange Crush and many more.
