CJ Logistics America to Open Cold Storage in Kansas City

CJ Logistics America will open a new cold storage warehouse in New Century, Kansas, just 30 miles outside of Kansas City. Developed in a joint venture by Yukon Real Estate Partners, a national cold storage developer, and BGO, a global leader in cold storage real estate, the project boasts a rail-served 291,000-square-foot warehouse complete with Alta EXPERT refrigeration and is targeted to open in 2025.

The new warehouse facility will be attached to Upfield’s New Century production plant through an above-ground conveyor bridge being constructed by Upfield. This will allow Upfield’s finished product to be delivered directly into the warehouse. There is also currently 100,000 square feet of additional warehouse space available.

The New Century cold storage facility is ideally positioned less than four miles from Interstate 35 and 11 miles from the newly developed BNSF Railway transcontinental line intermodal facility. The project is strategically located to take advantage of best-in-class access throughout the Midwest.
