The North American distribution center for the world leader in the manufacture and supply of industrial ball products is constructing a new facility with 37,600 square feet of floor space near the Port of Savannah. Preciball USA has engaged the Dewitt Tilton Group of Savannah to build the structure at the Westside Business Park in Pooler, Ga.
“We provide products manufactured all over the world to customers in the U.S., Canada and Mexico from our Savannah distribution center, so the geography and proximity of this location to the airport, the port, I-95 and Highway 80 were important in our decision to relocate,” said Don Peak, general manager for Preciball USA. “Not only is this project a good example of effective land use, a thoughtful design process and energy efficient construction, but it should also have a favorable impact to the area’s economic development potential.”
Preciball is expected to occupy about half of the building and make the remaining space available for lease. Suites incorporate both warehouse and office space.
“The building has a number of unique aspects in that it provides this flexible space, and is adaptable to Preciball’s rapidly expanding growth,” Peak added. “Other key benefits include the building’s high efficiency warehouse lighting and HVAC equipment, as well as dock-high loading doors and dock levelers. The warehouse space is also pillar-free with clear span truss construction.”
“One of the more interesting aspects of this project was placing the character of the building design on a very challenging site,” remarked Chris Tilton, president and co-founder of Dewitt Tilton Group. “But we were able to come up with a design that fits well in the space and provides for convenient in and out truck traffic. We are honored that Preciball selected us for this project.”
The business is scheduled to move from its current location on King George Blvd. in Savannah to the new facility in late summer.
