Seaboard-Triumph is a ‘Cover Star’

The Sioux City, Iowa Economic Development group publishes a semi-annual magazine covering the latest events in and around Sioux City. And, on the cover of The Fall 2015/Winter 2016 issue is one of the largest projects weve ever undertaken as a Design-Builder the Seaboard Triumph Foods Pork Processing Plant. This 245-acre, $264M, 750,000 square foot facility is currently under construction with this facility expected to be completed in mid-2017.

To give you a sense of the size of this project heres the floorplan for Seaboard Triumph superimposed over an aerial photo of the site that was taken last week:

In addition to coverage of our project, Progress also provides some interesting factoids about Iowas place in the pork industry. For instance, Iowa is the #1 pork producing state in the US and its also the top state for Pork Exports (over $1.4B annually) to countries like Japan and South Korea as well as our neighbors to the North and South Canada and Mexico.

Heres a high-res scan of the article with all the details on the Seaboard Triumph project and Iowas role as a pork processing powerhouse in the United States:

Additionally, well be publishing monthly photos of this site over the coming months and you can see how construction is progressing on this massive facility.
