Jacksonville Cold

Jacksonville Cold marks a significant milestone for DSI South and a benchmark for complex industrial construction in the Southeast. Delivered through a design-build approach for national developer Karis Cold, the ±265,264-square-foot facility brings much-needed cold storage capacity to Florida’s logistics corridor.

Located on a 24-acre site at 10105 Pritchard Road, the property offers exceptional logistical advantages. It is situated just 6 miles from the CSX intermodal facility, 8 miles from Norfolk Southern’s intermodal facility, and 24 miles from the FEC intermodal terminal. The site also provides direct access to major highways including I-95, I-295, and I-10, ensuring efficient regional and national distribution. Jacksonville Cold is positioned just 15 miles from JAXPORT and 17 miles from Jacksonville International Airport (JIA), making it an ideal choice for users seeking a high-performance, accessible cold storage solution.

The facility includes a fully convertible freezer/cooler environment (ranging from -10°F to 55°F), 40,536 pallet positions, 50-foot clear height, 32 dock doors, 10,200 square feet of office space, and ample parking for trailers and vehicles. Built to meet the evolving needs of food users, 3PLs, and cold chain operators, the project reflects DSI Group’s technical capabilities and attention to detail.

From preconstruction through delivery, DSI South led all phases of execution—coordinating thermal envelope detailing, cold slab construction, and insulated panel integration. The result is a state-of-the-art, market-ready cold storage facility designed to support fast-moving, temperature-controlled operations. Jacksonville Cold represents both a successful project delivery and a significant step in the continued growth of DSI South.
