Construction is underway on a new distribution center for Nestlé USA Inc, the world’s largest food and beverage company with a robust U.S. footprint. The new multi-story building, which will be more than 700k sf, will be located on an approximate 58-acre parcel of land on the east side of Tejon Ranch Commerce Center (TRCC), owned by Tejon Ranch Co.
Nestlé USA’s new, fully automated facility will serve its ambient portfolio and will be built with flexibility to support future growth and expansion plans. Though no official opening date has been announced, Nestlé is targeting 2025 for initial completion of construction and 2026 for commencement of operations.
“Nestlé is building a supply chain that’s fit for the future and able to drive long-term value for our business,” said Pete Spanos, Chief Supply Chain Officer of Nestlé North America. “Tejon Ranch is the ideal location for us to build our next-generation distribution center due to its central location that gives us an efficient route to market on the West Coast.”
More than 8 msf of commercial and industrial space at TRCC has already been absorbed, approximately 40% of the thriving development’s 20 msf of entitled space. In the last 24 months alone, there have been transactions involving four building sites at TRCC representing more than 2.5 msf of industrial space either under construction or completed. Other firms at TRCC include IKEA, Dollar General, Famous Footwear, Caterpillar, Camping World and L’Oréal.
Tejon Ranch Commerce Center continues to be a driver of economic growth in Kern County and the surrounding region. To date, more than five thousand jobs have been created and hundreds of millions of dollars invested in this gateway between southern and northern California.
