Consolidated Construction Company in conjunction with NAI Pfefferle and Sheboygan SouthPointe Development, LLC, broke ground on a new facility that will be leasable for manufacturing on December 8. The 100,000 square-foot located in the SouthPointe Industrial Park campus at 3327 Horizon Drive in Sheboygan plans on being complete by July 2023, with potentially an additional 100,000 square-feet of expansion also planned to double the facilities developed. New North, Inc., a regional marketing and economic development firm, says that there is urgent need for the additional capacity to support the Sheboygan area’s burgeoning manufacturing, transportation and logistics, and light- and heavy industrial markets.
“As not only the design-builder but also an investor, Consolidated Construction is confident about the bullish economy in the manufacturing and industrial sector in the Sheboygan market,” said Mark Schwei, Executive Vice President of Consolidated Construction. “It is a great example of a successful public-private partnership that started with market demand awareness brought forward by the City of Sheboygan and NAI Pfefferle. We look forward to working with local businesses looking to expand and it’s a great project to jump start the Southpointe Industrial Park.”
The manufacturing boom in Sheboygan is not an aberration, as in August 2020, globaltrademag.com listed Sheboygan County as number 10 for their annual “Made In America, 20 Top U.S. Cities for Manufacturers” ranking. That growth and potential for growth should only increase as the worst of the Covid-19 pandemic continues to wane and more people are re-entering the manufacturing industry at a full capacity.
