PREMIER Design + Build Group has completed the Midwest Warehouse expansion project located at 2885 Diehl Road in Naperville.
The full-service logistics facility now spans 478,917 square feet, which includes the 177,357-square-foot office and warehouse expansion conducted by PREMIER Design + Build Group LLC. Increasing distribution efficacy and maximizing space functionality were key objectives of the expansion, enabling Midwest Warehouse to better meet the needs of their customers.

A 6,200-square-foot segment of the expansion includes office accommodations, providing Midwest Warehouse with an additional three private offices, two separate break rooms, an open office area, restrooms and a conference room. Also featured, is a separate area exclusively for maintenance and repairs. The exterior is constructed of a precast façade and glass exterior walls.
