Modern Sprout Will Bring All Operations Under One Near West Side Roof
Modern Sprout, which has operated in an incubator space in the Kinzie Corridor, is expanding its footprint by 70%. The startup geared toward urban gardening will occupy a 38,997-square-foot space at Manna Capital Partners’ 2145 W. Grand Ave. On Chicago’s Near West Side.
The new space, which will house offices, production and fulfillment, will be Modern Sprout’s first self-contained facility. Previously, the company occupied multiple spaces spanning 23,000 square feet at an Industrial Council of Nearwest Chicago incubator space.
“After doubling in size in 2021, we reassessed our space and needs as a company, and it made sense for us to consolidate our team into one unit and build out a more efficient workspace,” said co-founder Sarah Burrows. “We are committed to staying in Chicago’s Near West Side as we love the neighborhood and it’s where so many of our team members live.”
