Just curious if they have any tourist attractions at the plant on Grand River. Their website doesnt say much. |

You might have better luck looking for the Gratiot plant. |

Got an address on Grand River?
Faygo on Grand River?
Or do you mean Flukie's Party Store has Faygo's?
(Gimme some of that old fashioned Rock n' Rye.)

Call em up on the phone. You might even be able to just drive to it and ask someone at the front desk (is there a front desk?).
If they don't give tours they really should, even if it was only for a limited time. I think if they advertised tours, a lot of people would like to go, since a lot of people like faygo, just because it's faygo. It's not as "cool" as Jones Soda, but it's cooler than pepsi. |

Talked to a friend of mine tonight, who's worked at Faygo for a number of years.
Faygo discontinued the tours after a number of spurious "Slip and Fall" lawsuits by visitors in the 90's. According to him all of the tours were observed by security cameras, and, generally the suits were dropped after the plaintiff's attorney observed the tapes. |
