Winery General Contractor Project In Lodi, CA
The Trinchero Family (Sutter Home) facility in Lodi, CA has been developing and expanding for over 15 years with FDC at their side. The 297 acre site for this plant was specifically chosen for the ability to expand over the years. The high volume facility houses tanks ranging from 2,500 gallons to 360,000 gallons and has a total capacity of 50 million gallons of juice. It is able to receive 125,000 tons of fruit annually. This processing plant also houses a 660 KW PV system, a new waste water treatment plant, administration buildings, and a variety of service and equipment buildings.
The bottling and warehouse facility was recently completed as part of the latest phase of this project. The bottling facility, totaling roughly 240,000 SF, is riddled with state-of-the-art bottling lines. One line alone processes 600 bottles per minute and the facility is capable of producing 17 million cases annually. The warehouse facility provides roughly 420,000 SF of automated palletized storage and 20 truck docks – more than the Trinchero Family needs at the moment but it does leave room for growth.
