Rockefeller Group, a real estate developer, owner and operator, announced Sept. 20 it is developing a 1.02 million-square-foot distribution center in Spartanburg.
The facility, Spartanburg 221, will be situated on 87.7 acres off of S.C. Highway 221 and will include:
- 40-foot clear ceiling heights
- 56-foot by 53-foot column spacing
- Up to 530 parking spaces
- Up to 237 trailer stalls
“Spartanburg 221 lies in the heart of the I-85 Corridor in the Greenville-Spartanburg industrial market, which has been recognized as one of the nation’s fastest growing industrial markets due to population expansion, business friendly environment, ample transportation infrastructure, broad regional accessibility and a skilled work force,” said Steven McGee, vice president, southeast development for Rockefeller Group. “While the automotive industry has chosen to make significant investments in the community, with BMW and Volvo, there is an increase in demand for quality distribution and manufacturing space from companies that supply to the auto industry, like Boysen USA and Winar Connection, who have already chosen to locate and invest in Spartanburg.”
Construction on Spartanburg 221 began in early 2023 and the project is expected to be delivered in the fourth quarter of 2024.
