February 25, 2020

Work has commenced on a distribution center and packaging center totaling 1.6 million square feet at Trammell Crow Company’s (TCC) ChicagoWest Business Center (CWBC) in DeKalb, IL. Ferrara Candy Company committed to 106 acres in the center of the ChicagoWest Business Park, and will occupy the two recently-completed buildings, a 1.2 million-square-foot distribution center and a 466,000-square-foot packaging center, located at 801 E. Gurler Rd. and 1001 E. Gurler Rd., respectively, for its operations.

“The Ferrara team had the challenge of developing a facility plan that would meet the evolving needs of its growing business, and we’re grateful that they picked Trammell Crow Company and ChicagoWest Business Center to do so,” said Grady Hamilton, a managing director with TCC.

VP Joe Grimes with TCC will oversee the design and construction of the project. Matt Mulvihill and Kevin Segerson of CBRE represented Ferrara in the transactions.
