Ground Broken for $20M Facility at Fenton Logistics Park

Ground was recently broken for the new $20-million, 182,400-square-foot facility that 1st Phorm will occupy at Fenton Logistics Park in Fenton, Missouri by early next year.

Once complete, Building V will house more than 400 employees and feature an auditorium, a state-of-the-art gym, locker rooms, media rooms, a podcast room, basketball court, full kitchen and more. 1st Phorm is on track to outgrow its current space, and the new one-story, tilt-up building will provide the room it needs to continue to expand operations and staffing. The facility will feature both office and warehousing space, and company sales representatives and coaches, customer service representatives and warehouse employees will all work from the new space.

The project team includes CBRE, M+H Architects, Stock & Associates and Kadean Construction.

Plans are being finalized for Building VII, which is slated to be a 192,800-square-foot facility. As it continues to be built out and additional tenants are lined up, Fenton Logistics Park is expected to feature nearly 1.5 million square feet of manufacturing, logistics and warehouse space; 480,000 square feet of office/warehouse and flex space; 182,500 square feet of retail, restaurant and hotel space and 105 acres of land owned by the BNSF Railway for anticipated additional railroad services. The overall development has the potential to result in 2,500-3,000 permanent jobs, pumping an estimated $135 million in wages to the region.
