H. J. High was the prime contractor on the expansion of the production facility for Martin’s Famous Pastry Shoppe, Inc.® in Valdosta, Georgia. Martin’s® is known world-wide for their delicious potato rolls. When it came time to expand their operation, they found that they shared many cultural similarities to H. J. High. That made a partnership between Martin’s and H. J. High a perfect fit.
The 14-month project expanded their existing facility by 120,000 sf.
The addition consisted of both one- and two-story exterior and interior tilt walls, precast columns and beams, and precast roof planks. We utilized white concrete for the floor slab. Interior areas included production, packaging, oven containment, and a cooling spiral. We installed ten large rooftop HVAC units. Site work included storm and sanitary utilities, asphalt paving, and an expansion of the loading dock. The project commenced in October 2017 and was completed in December 2018.The contract value was $17,900,000.
