As its business continues to grow, Bay Food Brokerage is in need of additional square footage. The company recently purchased an office building in Tampa, Florida, for $4.3 million. This will nearly double the size of Bay Food’s existing office space on Memorial Highway in Tampa.
“We’re thrilled to have found a building in a location that really meets all our needs and will allow us to grow into the next generation of Bay Food Brokerage,” said Cammie Chatterton, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We’re also excited to move from Hillsborough County into the City of Tampa, the city we love and support through many charitable endeavors.”
According to a press release, Bay Food Brokerage will renovate the new building to make cosmetic and floor plan changes. Move-in is anticipated for March 2025.
“We’ve been on a fairly steep growth trajectory for the past decade, and it was time to upgrade the size, location, and amenities of our headquarters,” said Chris Chatterton, Executive Vice President. “Our rapid growth in recent years—in terms of revenue and employees—prompted a need for space that’s comfortable for our team and also can support our growth into the future.”
The building has a full-service, commercial kitchen as well, a boon for any company needing to test products for consumers.
