Scope Of Work
U.S. Waffle, an international food manufacturer of specialty waffles and pancakes, commissioned A M King to provide integrated design-build services for the renovation of a 310,000-sf building located in downtown Liberty, SC. The project consolidated two existing facilities in Greenville, expanded production capabilities and serves as headquarters for the growing company.
The new bakery houses five production lines with capacity for nine, positioning the company to explore and produce additional breakfast products. A M King’s scope of work included production line layout and design consulting; processing and packaging space build-out; HVAC selection to maintain positive pressure through different stages of the baking process, and electrical coordination.
The project, which exceeds sanitary and food safety standards, is an interesting study in not only how to adapt and reuse an existing building for a new purpose, but also the most effective way to source repurposed construction materials.
