A M King, a leading Integrated Design-Build firm, was recognized by Associated Builders and Contractors of the Carolinas (ABC Carolinas) this month for its delivery of ALDI’s Regional Headquarters and Distribution megafacility in Loxley, Alabama

At the 2023 ABC Carolinas Excellence in Construction (EIC) Awards gala held on November, 9 in Charlotte, A M King was presented with a “Best in Class” Eagle Award – ABC’s highest-level award in the Industrial/Over $50 million category – and was singled out with the exclusive 2023 Carolinas Design-Build Award. Furthermore, A M King was a Finalist for ABC’s 2023 Project of the Year. 

A M King provided property consulting for ALDI U.S., one of America’s fastest-growing retailers, and designed and built their regional flagship facility, which will serve as a blueprint for future ALDI locations as the company expands in the Southeast and across the country. The nearly 600,000-square-foot Gulf Coast operation services more than 100 stores in southern Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and the Florida panhandle—marking the company’s presence in 38 states. 

“I want to congratulate our experienced design and construction professionals for a job well done in delivering this complex project while meeting our longtime client’s critical deadline for shipping product,” said A M King Vice President Dan Crist. “Winning the coveted ABC Eagle Award plus the Carolinas Design-Build Award is extremely rewarding for A M King and the entire Design-Build team.”

Having won at the Carolinas chapter level, A M King became eligible to compete in ABC’s National EIC Awards competition for which winners will be announced in March.
