Researched by Industrialinfo.com (Industrial Information Resources, Incorporated Houston, Texas). Privately held produce distributor, Caito Foods Service Incorporated (Indianapolis, Indiana) is constructing a new refrigerated warehouse and office on property at the company’s headquarters in Indianapolis.

Construction kicked off around the middle of June 2005 on a 126,000 square foot building on North Post Road that will provide the region's leading produce distributor with plenty of room to grow, both physically and financially.

Plans call for the creation of a new structure that will provide the company with an additional 106,000 square feet of refrigerated storage area and docks, as well as a brand new 10,000 square foot office area.

The estimated $12 million project was awarded to Tippmann Construction Incorporated (Fort Wayne, Indiana), and the contractor is currently on-site, preparing footings and foundations for the building.

Construction is scheduled to take ten to twelve months to complete and will require the hiring of about 27 new employees.

Caito Foods Service Incorporated has been providing a complete line of produce items and services to retailers and other wholesalers throughout the Midwest since 1965. The company is an industry leader in service, technology, distribution, marketing, and logistics. It also operates FreshLine Fresh Cut Produce in Newcomerstown, Ohio, which recently underwent a 42,000 square foot expansion.
