This project repurposed a warehouse into a Kroger distribution center, including an expansion. The renovation was tailored to suit the unique program needs, including modernizing approximately 217,000 SF of dry grocery storage warehouse, truck maintenance space, office, employee break area, and dock. It also converted approximately 150,000 SF to perishable cooler space and added 45,000 SF to include a freezer, cooler, and mechanical room.

Kroger also identified the crucial need to address the cost of employee retention within its new facility. Implementing a strong workplace strategy for the project was imperative. The team focused on increasing brand identity through a fresh and vibrant palette and emphasizing key employee amenities to increase “pride-of-place.”
