Griffco Completes 495,000 SF Cold Storage Campus in Union City, GA

Griffco Design/Build was selected as Saxum Real Estate‘s design/build partner on a state-of-the-art cold storage facility in Union City, Georgia. The campus spans 495,000 total SF across two buildings: Building 1 covers 306,402 SF with 46 dock positions, while Building 2 offers 188,455 SF with 36 dock positions. Both buildings feature convertible freezer and cooler spaces ranging from -20°F to +40°F.

The Griffco team collaborated with a specialty foods company to deliver tenant improvements in Building 2, including office spaces, customized finishes and a demising wall with a frost ribbon to ensure regulated temperature controls between freezers. Building 1 was previously completed, designed and constructed to support Arcadia Cold Storage’s high-volume throughput storage and handling services.

This strategic location allows food distribution to 5+ million people within an hour’s drive and reaches more than 20% of the U.S. population within a day’s drive. Griffco is proud to be at the forefront of the growth in America’s cold supply chain.
