Staff Report From Georgia CEO

Monday, June 23rd, 2025

 Cushman & Wakefield announced today that Dallas-based Chill Development (Chill Development) has selected the firm to lease a new 334,467-square-foot speculative freezer/cooler facility at South Park Industrial Park near Atlanta. This marks Chill Development’s third facility, joining existing locations in Denton, TX, and Plainfield, IL.

Cushman & Wakefield’s Chris Copenhaver, Senior Director and Co-lead of the firm’s National Food & Beverage Advisory Group, will lead marketing efforts for Chill Development’s new building. 

Located at 3200 South Park Blvd. in Ellenwood, Georgia, the new development is fully freezer-capable and designed to be divisible, with 50-foot clear storage heights. Temperature for the building can range from -10°F to +70°F in zones based on tenant requirement. The building includes 52 dock doors and two ramps as well as 185-foot truck court depth, trailer storage and 63 trailer-parking spaces. 

“In metro Atlanta and across the U.S., we’re seeing a shortage of freezer/cooler space that is exacerbated by increasing demand from wholesalers, retailers, restaurants and food and beverage companies,” Copenhaver said. “Chill Development’s speculative facility will provide state-of-the-art freezer/cooler development in a market lacking new, modern product and provide a solution for that pent-up demand.”
