A 99,000-square-foot industrial building is planned at a site in Kenosha near the Kenosha Regional Airport for Pleasant Prairie-based
Iron Mountain Refrigeration & Equipment. The building is planned for a site at 4415 88
th Ave., just east of the airport, according to documents submitted to the city.
The building would serve as the new headquarters for the company, which is currently located in a 50,000-square-foot space at 10550 86th Ave. in Pleasant Prairie, in the LakeView Corporate Park.
Iron Mountain Refrigeration & Equipment is a commercial and industrial refrigeration products company. It distributes the products, but does not manufacture them. The company needs more space to expand its product lines and wants to increase the size of its inventories, said founder and CEO
Trevor Crivello.
The new headquarters building planned in Kenosha for the company would be used primarily for refrigeration equipment distribution. It would include 5,500 square feet of office space and 94,000 square feet of space for refrigeration equipment storage. The general contractor for the project is Salem Lakes-based
Hagen Homes.
The 10.7-acre site has been listed for sale by
Tom Boyle of
Lee & Associates, who represents the seller of the property, Rosemont, Illinois-based
Transport Properties.
Iron Mountain Refrigeration & Equipment currently has 12 employees. The company is considering plans to acquire another business in order to add a service department, Crivello said. That move would result in doubling the company's employment, he said.
