The Philadelphia Regional Produce Market is a $218.5 million public-private project that is forecast to employ 1,500 people, and ring up to $1.6 billion in sales annually when it opens in southwest Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the fall of 2010. The new bulk produce market will be 686,000 square feet - nearly twice the size of its current facility - 20 acres of vendor spaces, loading platforms, and offices. It was two years in the making "for the team" for what has been called the " Gigantic Mall for Produce". Learn how the job was put together and about the bidding process and process and onsite management.
