LANCASTER, PA 17603

Positioned along a key corridor in Lancaster City, this 32,625 SF purpose-built cold storage facility offers a rare, near turn-key leasing opportunity for cold storage operators, food distributors, and freezer users seeking to establish or expand operations in the Lancaster market. With existing racking, substantial power capacity, and a strategic location, the property can dramatically reduce the time, capital expense, and risk associated with building a new facility. The building offers nearly 30,000 SF of functional cold storage and distribution space. Seller also owns the adjacent property, providing incoming tenants with flexibility to scale operations and the potential to utilize additional space as business needs grow. Originally purpose-built for freezer and food storage use, the facility includes existing racking as part of the lease, further reducing startup time and upfront capital costs. The space likely requires installation of new cooling equipment to return to service, as the original ammonia-based refrigeration system (circa 1996) remains in place but is not operational. This allows an incoming tenant the flexibility to install a modern refrigeration system tailored to their specific operational requirements. The primary ±32,625 SF building is configured as follows: ±19,840 SF freezer space with 38-foot clear ceiling heights and existing racking; previously supported 2,000 pallet positions at 28°F and 230 pallet positions at 0°F ±8,785 SF dry storage, shipping, and handling space ±4,000 SF office, restroom, and cafeteria space supporting on-site operations Six loading docks, including one drive-in door, with 11' x 8' dock doors to support efficient refrigerated logistics and truck circulation 19 dedicated parking spaces included, with additional spaces available at $50 per month. For tenants with high energy demands, the property offers a major advantage. A combination of UGI natural gas and PPL grid power provides more than 20 MW of capacity already in place, with the ability to expand. This makes the site particularly well suited for cold storage, food distribution, food processing, and other power-intensive operations. The property is located in a tax-advantaged Opportunity Zone and within Lancaster’s CRIZ district, creating potential advantages for businesses establishing or expanding operations in the city. Its position in a redeveloping area just minutes from downtown Lancaster provides convenient access to transportation routes, workforce, and the region’s growing industrial and logistics market. This is an outstanding opportunity for cold storage operators, food distributors, or freezer users looking to enter the Lancaster market quickly without the delays and expense of ground-up construction. With existing infrastructure, expansion potential, and exceptional power capacity, the property offers a strong foundation for a modern cold storage or distribution operation.
