John laid out each store exactly alike so that people could find things in any store once they learned the layout.

If, for instance, he was figuring on a yearly production of 150,000 cases, he would need to allow 720 sq. ft. for the bottling room, 364 sq. ft. for the conference room, 152 sq. ft. for toilets, stairs, etc. The company also advised him and his staff what machines to buy (including water purification apparatus on which Coca-Cola insists) and how to run them.
