Saval Foods Headquarters, Distribution Center Breaks Ground in Maryland

Foodservice distribution company Saval Foods, in partnership with Howard Hughes Communities, has broken ground on a new headquarters facility. The company is constructing a 230,000-square-foot space in Columbia that will include a new distribution center and a multi-story office building.

Saval Foods will retain its existing 391 full-time employees and create an additional 107 new full-time jobs in the state over the next four years. “Our state is home to a world-class food scene and, for nearly a century, Saval Foods has supported our food, restaurant, and tourism industries by delivering quality product and service to the region,” said Governor Moore of Maryland.

The new headquarters, located in Columbia Gateway, will bring Saval’s corporate operations and two existing Howard County businesses together in a single, larger facility. “Saval Foods has deep roots here in Howard County, and we’re excited to support their continued growth across Maryland, Washington, D.C., Virginia, Delaware and Pennsylvania,” said Howard Hughes Communities Senior Vice President of Development Gabe Chung.
