Project: Superior Foods Co.

Location: Grand Rapids, MI

Square Footage: 26,000SF

Project Information: In addition to the standard processes of quality construction, building food production facilities comes with its elevated priority on cleanliness of materials, robust mechanical and electrical systems, employee workflow and security. FCC’s design build team was able to develop solutions to these challenges and met Superior Foods needs by building out a 26,000SF industrial shell space into one containing over 19,000SF of USDA and FDA certified food production space, complete with 4,500SF of office space to support these production activities. A unique combination of insulated metal panel and an internal steel substructure were utilized to provide not only a source of insulation, but an extremely cleanable surface as well. Evaporative cooling units and a forest of electrical and plumbing cord drops were installed to support the equipment.
