Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--As U.S. shoppers continue to tread carefully amid inflationary pressure, many producers of food and other commercial products are optimizing their supply chains with additional logistics capacities. Industrial Info is tracking more than $4.6 billion worth of active and proposed warehousing and distribution projects across the U.S. that are set to begin construction in the fourth quarter, the bulk of which is attributed to projects set to kick off in December.
Click on the image at right for a graph detailing the top 10 parent companies for U.S.-based warehousing and distribution projects slated to kick off from October through December, by total investment.
Perhaps the world's best-known developer of distribution centers, Amazon.com Incorporated (Seattle, Washington) is sprucing up its logistics operations across the U.S. South. The company expects to begin construction in October on its $20 million DSG4 distribution center in Augusta, Georgia, and its $15 million last-mile delivery station in Fort Smith, Arkansas, both of which are expected to run into the second half of 2026. Amazon's "last mile" centers are smaller facilities that better direct packages to customers after they leave larger distribution centers.
Subscribers to Industrial Info's Global Market Intelligence (GMI) Industrial Manufacturing Project Database can read detailed reports on Amazon's Georgia and Arkansas projects.
The Food & Beverage Industry always accounts for a large portion of investment in the warehousing and distribution sector. Producers of alcoholic beverages account for much of the related development slated to begin in the fourth quarter, including Green River Distilling Company (Owensboro, Kentucky), which proudly calls its product "the whiskey without regrets." In a U.S. state famous for the distilled delight, Green River is preparing for the $16 million addition of two barrel-aging warehouses at its complex in Lewisport, Kentucky, as part of a broader plan to add a total of eight warehouses. The project is expected to run through the first quarter of 2026.

Companies more specifically geared toward the storage and distribution of alcoholic beverages also are building out capacity. Commercial real estate manager Buzz Oates Development (Sacramento, California) already has started site preparations for its $65 million warehouse at the Giovannoni Logistics Center in American Canyon, California, to accommodate wine storage in the heart of the legendary Napa Valley, while Standard Sales Company LP (Odessa, Texas) is preparing for a $7 million expansion of its beer distribution center in Lubbock, Texas. Subscribers can read detailed reports on the California and Texas projects.
Solid foods also need a place to stay before they arrive in Americans' pantries. Labatt Food Service (San Antonio, Texas) is preparing to begin work on a $42 million dry and refrigerated storage center in Jarrell, Texas, about 40 miles north of Austin, while the increasing popular snack food maker LesserEvil (Danbury, Connecticut) is converting a vacant building into a $6 million warehouse in Brewster, New York. Subscribers can read detailed reports on the Texas and New York projects.
Transportation-related projects also make up a sizable chunk of the related investment, among them Bartlett Maritime Corporation's (Cleveland, Ohio) $80 million renovation of its shipyard depot in Lordstown, Ohio. The facility is designed to produce materials used in the overhaul of submarines and other vessels for the U.S. Navy. Subscribers can learn more from a detailed project report and plant profile.
Bartlett Maritime is not alone in this corner of the market: U.S. shipyards are at work on more than $3 billion worth of active and proposed projects, many of which cater to the armed services.
