The building offers nearly 30,000 SF of functional cold storage and distribution space. Seller also owns the adjacent property, providing incoming tenants with flexibility to scale operations and the potential to utilize additional space as business needs grow. Originally purpose-built for freezer and food storage use, the facility includes existing racking as part of the lease, further reducing startup time and upfront capital costs.
