You got to love the way companies play the system. How much we can squeeze for free. SPC Ardmona is owned by Coca Cola Amatil, hardly a company running short on cash and more and more taking over Austria (yes, Austria!) It's simple, if you can't run your company at a profit, sell it or close it. I'm all for locally made government competitive concessions, but not cash handouts. Even more-so when the parent company can support it.
