NEW DISTRIBUTION FACILITY
Berkeley County, SC

Piggly Wiggly commissioned FDG to undertake a Distribution Planning Study to determine its future distribution needs and to evaluate how its existing facilities could be used to support those requirements. The culmination of the study provided building and site layouts and led Piggly Wiggly to select FDG to provide architecture and engineering services for their new facility.
