Seefried Industrial Properties have recently delivered a brand-new, state-of-the-art distribution center near Stone Mountain, Georgia. Exhibiting record-breaking size and functionality, the 640,000-square-foot facility, whose code name was "Project Rocket," stands over 70 feet tall and contains nearly 3.0 million square feet of fulfillment space. Apart from its vast capacity, the building boasts 4 functional stories fitted with cutting-edge material handling and product retrieval systems which are extremely useful when serving the fast-growing e-commerce market. At full operations, the project is expected to create 1,000 jobs.

Greg Herren, COO of Seefried, had this to say about the project: "We are proud to deliver the first Robotic fulfillment center in Gwinnett County and the state of Georgia. The completion of this project is exceptional in every way and is yet another testament to Seefried's ability to deliver the most complex distribution and fulfillment buildings leveraging strong relationships with vendors and contractors."

Seefried has a strong history with the Seattle-based retailer, having built several other developments nationwide, including other Georgia facilities in Macon and near Augusta.

The general contractor on the project was The Conlan Company; the civil engineer was Eberly & Associates and the architect was Macgregor Associates.
