ARCO partners with Winstanley Enterprise to
complete 501,500 s/f cold storage facility

Enfield, CT ARCO National Construction (ARCO) partnered with Winstanley Enterprises to complete a 501,500 s/f cold storage facility for end-users Agri-Mark and Eppendorf. Agri-Mark, a premier dairy farmer cooperative in the Northeast, occupies 260,500 s/f of the facility, with the remaining portion occupied by Eppendorf, a life science company that develops and sells instruments, consumables, and services for liquid, sample, and cell handling in laboratories worldwide. 

The strong demand for industrial space combined with speed-to-market prioritization from end-users has led to increased development throughout Connecticut due to its land availability and access to major population centers. The facility is strategically located between Boston and New York City along I-91, central Connecticut’s primary north-south corridor connecting Hartford, New Haven, and points south within Vermont and western Massachusetts. 

“We continue to see a strong pipeline of industrial projects, including cold storage, throughout New England, with an increasing number of developments taking place in less land-constrained markets west of Boston like those throughout Connecticut,” said Jason Grant, principal at ARCO National Construction. “ARCO has also seen a growing number of developments focused on specialty end-users such as those in the food and beverage and life science industries. As demand continues for these types of facilities, we look forward to bringing even more best-in-class projects to the local market.”

“ARCO National Construction was our preferred contractor from day one and delivered an amazing project through a period of high inflation and product scarcity on time and on budget. They pay attention to the details of the schedule and budget and are great to work with throughout the construction process,” said Adam Winstanley, principal for Winstanley Enterprises. 

Construction details include a 176,460 s/f warehouse, 34,678 s/f 0°F freezer, 20,969 s/f 35°F cooler, 19,256 s/f dry dock, 6,149 s/f 45°F cold dock, and 3,420 s/f office.
