CoLinx, LLC Expansion

One of the largest distribution centers in the Upper Cumberland, a new 300,000 square-foot facility located in Crossville, Tenn. J&S Construction partnered with the building owner to design a new site for CoLinx, LLC, a manufacturer-owned provider of shared e-commerce and logistics services.

The new center, adjacent to the facility’s current location off Genesis Road, is a pre-engineered metal building (PEMB) that spans almost seven acres and includes office space, a clerical area, restroom facilities, breakroom area, and sizeable maintenance space. 

Additionally, the facility’s automatic sprinkler system, pump house and PEMB roof all meet requirements of FM Global, a property insurance company whose capital, scientific research capability and engineering expertise are solely dedicated to property risk management and the resilience of its clients-owners.

Production needs of the owner called for a tight schedule and required the scope to be completed within a nine-month time frame.

During the course of construction, the building’s tenant, CoLinx, additionally contracted J&S Construction to perform a variety of significant system upgrades, including a mechanical/electrical room, IT room and fire pump room. J&S Construction successfully completed all work within the original project duration several months ahead of the scheduled completion date.

Founded in 2001, CoLinx has grown to include warehousing operations in four U.S. locations, two Canadian locations, and global e-commerce operations headquartered in Greenville, S.C. The company employs over 1,100 people billing over $100 million annually in service revenue.
