Book Description
Excerpt from Regional Wholesale Distribution Facilities for Blair County, Pennsylvania To accommodate the 21 wholesalers needing new facilities, the following buildings are suggested: Two multiple-occupancy buildings containing 39 units, with square feet of first floor space for 10 wholesale firms, and 10 single-occupancy buildings containing square feet of first floor space for three grocery wholesalers, one produce wholesaler, two frozen food wholesalers, and four dairy firms. In addition, 30 acres of land are provided for development of a food chain distribution warehouse. Space is also provided in the distribution center for a central energy plant for the heating and refrigeration needs of firms located here. These facilities, with space for future expansion and for other wholesalers and allied industries that may wish to locate in the center in the future, would require about 150 acres of land. Three sites were evaluated: Watts Farm, Fort Fetter, and Barnhart. Advantages and disadvantages of each are outlined.
