Design build construction management firm Dacon Corp. has started construction on a 135,000-square-foot industrial facility for Monogram Food Solutions, a leading manufacturer of value-added food products for their new location in Creek Brook Park in Haverhill, MASS.

Founded in 2004, the Memphis-based Monogram has experienced a 620% sales rate increase, creating over 3,000 jobs since its inception. Monogram has plant and warehousing facilities in Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, Virginia and Wisconsin. Paradigm Properties is the owner and developer of the facility and this is Dacon’s second partnership with them in Haverhill. Paradigm owns over 3 million square feet of property in its markets and provides a range of services for third-party owners and clients.

The facility will focus on optimizing production to meet consumer demand.  Six areas – freezer, cold storage, cool dock, dry goods storage, production and offices – are configured to accommodate 300 employees. Process engineering, critical for operational efficiency, includes a state-of-the-art ammonia refrigeration system. Loading dock areas and parking have been configured to maximize a restricted site plan.
