Red Rock to Break Ground on First Phase of Smith Farms Industrial Park in Upstate South Carolina

SPARTANBURG, S.C. — Red Rock Developments will soon break ground on the first phase at Smith Farms Industrial Park in Spartanburg County. The Columbia, S.C.-based developer first unveiled plans for the 5.9 million-square-foot project, located at the intersection of Highway 101 and Reidville Road, in March. Phase I will include two speculative buildings totaling 610,000 square feet. Building I will be a 400,000-square-foot, cross-dock facility that will suit the needs of warehouse/distribution users. The second building will be a rear-load facility totaling 210,000 square feet. The building will be suited for non-distribution or smaller tenants, according to Red Rock. Smith Farms is located roughly three miles from Interstate 85, providing access to BMW’s Spartanburg plant, Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport and the Greer Inland Port. Red Rock expects to wrap up construction on the first two buildings in the second quarter of 2019. NAI Earle Furman is handling the project’s leasing assignment.
