PLANS, DESCRIPTION: Lake Alfred-based Growers Fertilizer Corp. purchased two warehouse buildings between Old Lakeland Highway and U.S. 98 for $995,000.
The price equated to $38 per square foot.
The 10.17-acre site features a 14,400-square-foot building and a 12,000-square-foot building.
The two buildings are replacing several smaller warehouses the company previously leased in Dade City.
“We were leasing about 10,000 square feet,” says Brent Sutton, company president. “ We had outgrown our space in those buildings. This [property] is much larger, and it's also much convenient. The other buildings were spread out.”
