just got word that my area coca-cola will be distributing Vault bib's starting mid-june to early july. just FYI.

I am not up on all the lingo. I'm just curious what is a BIB?

Great! I have been wondering when this would happen and was going to ask on the board if anyone had heard anything.

BIB is bag-in-the-box. It is the syrup that is used for fountain drinks.

Frozen Vault has already been spotted in Maryland, both at 7-11 and Royal Farms (Baltimore area c-store/gas chain).

If these ever go to Burger King fountains, the resturants owned by carrols corp. will NOT get Vault. I think I should start a petition?

They never had Surge, so I don't have much hope.

So, is it known what resturants will be getting fountain Vault?

The chain stores most often get their BIBs from a foodservice distributor, who gets them direct from Coca-Cola. Smaller accounts are generally serviced by the local bottler.

The original poster on this thread works for a bottler.. so my assumption would be that small mom & pop type pizza joints and such would be the first to get Vault BIBs.

Hey, keep us posted when these launch! I might talk to a local mom and pop pizza joint and see. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Contacts I have say Subway will be seeing VAULT for sure come July. Though I figure most places will replace MY with VAULT when availible.

if coke wants to seriously take-on mountain dew, then they'll have to start selling vault in fountains (mcdonalds, subway, 7-11, etc).

I usually go to the gas station at the end of my street to get my 95 cent Vault. But today I went to this beverage corner store about two miles from here, and to my suprise, they were charging $1.89 a bottle for Vault there. And $2.75 for a Red Bull.

Too expensive...
