WHAT HAVE THE BRANCHES BEEN UP TO?

SACRAMENTO BRANCH:

The Cool Port Oakland project is a 375,000 sq. ft. cold storage facility sitting on 22 acres at the Port of Oakland.

The facility has two docks each being 753’ long with 45 truck doors as well as 9 rail doors. The working temperature of the docks will be 35 degrees. The main freezer is 110,000 sq. ft. alone and has a working temperature of -10 degrees. As we understand, the primary function is to receive fresh product, deep freeze it, then place into shipping containers and it send out to other countries.

This project broke ground in June of 2017 and is scheduled to be finished by the end of August 2018.

Nathan Parker is the general foreman at Cool Port Oakland with an amazing team of three foremen, thirteen journeymen, and seven apprentices.

Keep up the great work TEAM!

CORPORATE/METRO BRANCH:

Corporate Estimators, Jorge Sahagun and Nabieha Miqbel coordinated and hosted a World Cup soccer party potluck this past week in the Corp./Metro upstairs lounge and watched Croatia beat England 2-1 as everyone cheered and had a great time.

Rich Oliveira, Journeyman & Nick Abbott, Apprentice installed three Big Ass Fans (two in Prefab & one in the Metro warehouse) this week.

Perfect timing for the upcoming heat wave.
