FEC Signs Braintree Manufacturing Space with HRP  

Hilco Redevelopment Partners (HRP) has announced that The First Electronics Corporation (FEC) has become the first tenant to occupy the newly redeveloped 400 Wood Road, a 157,000-square-foot Class-A GMP/advanced manufacturing facility in Braintree, MA. FEC specializes in custom electrical assemblies for harsh environments.

“We attribute the successful establishment of so many manufacturing engineering businesses to our location, workforce access, quality utility services … we hope over the next few years more businesses and amenities populate this underutilized corridor of Wood Road to provide even more opportunities for workers to enjoy their time on your campus here,” said Mayor Erin Joyce.  

HRP acquired the property in August 2019, and FEC’s move will create over 200 permanent jobs. 400 Wood Road, visible along I-93, now enjoys full occupancy, with Integra LifeSciences building out its 100,000 square feet.
