The 26-acre site with Interstate 65 frontage is located in a Chicago submarket with immediate interstate highway access.

The upgrades in warehouse equipment reiterate the company’s commitment to ongoing improvements.  

The expansion will transform the current Hobart site with the addition of a fully automated warehouse spanning more than 188,000 square feet.

The facility, to be leased exclusively by FreezPak Logistics, spans over 20 acres, offering 53,000 new pallet positions. 

The cold storage provider has formally changed its brand name from Lineage Logistics to Lineage.

Lineage’s North and Southbound cross-border program enables both TL (truckload) and LTL (less-than-truckload) shipments between the U.S. and Canada, while connecting shippers to the company’s strategically located warehouses that comprise its North American LTL multi-vendor consolidation network. 

 Regions worldwide reported increased capacity and several new companies joined GCCA in the past year. 

At 262,000 square feet, the Charleston facility boasts convenient proximity to Interstates 26 and 95 for convenient transportation access to and from the port as well as interior U.S. destinations.

This is the first of three phases included in the project.

Expected to be finished this fall, the facility will span approximately 386,000 square feet and include 85,000 pallet positions.
