Groundbreaking for Ferguson Facility in Belgrade, MT
Outlaw Real Estate Partners, based in Big Sky, Montana, has officially broken ground on a new industrial development for Ferguson, a leader in the plumbing supply industry, located on Frank Road in the quickly developing Belgrade area. This project marks a significant step in addressing the industrial space demands created by the region's substantial growth over the past decade.
Strategic Location and Development Plans
The new facility, situated on a spacious 21.36-acre lot, is strategically positioned to provide easy access to key transportation links. Located just south of Interstate 90 and mere minutes from Yellowstone International Airport, this site is at the heart of Belgrade's booming industrial corridor. The first phase includes a modern 88,000-square-foot facility that will serve as Ferguson's warehouse, distribution center, office space, and showroom, showcasing their extensive range of bathroom, kitchen, and lighting products.
“The Bozeman valley has been experiencing robust population growth, and the demand for high-quality industrial space is at an all-time high. We are proud to help meet this need,” said Mike Magrans, Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer at Outlaw Real Estate Partners.
Construction Oversight by Vardaman Construction
Overseeing the construction of this groundbreaking project is Vardaman Construction, known nationally for its expertise in industrial development. Paul Vardaman, the company's president, expressed his excitement about growing their presence in Montana. “Partnering with Outlaw allows us to deliver exceptional industrial space in this exciting market, and we look forward to providing a facility that meets industry demands,” he said.
Future Developments
In addition to the first phase, the master plan for the Frank Road Development includes a second phase that spans just over ten acres and is set to accommodate an additional 125,000 square feet of Class A industrial space. Potential tenants can expect the construction of this future phase to begin in the spring of 2026, with occupancy planned for the summer of 2027. This expansion not only speaks to Outlaw's commitment to supporting growth within the community but also highlights their foresight in meeting the anticipated industrial needs of the area.
