Lineage Celebrates Third Expansion at Indiana Facility
Third expansion since 2008, site is now company’s largest North American facility serving multiple customers.
The Insights Survey shows technology adoption is closely tied to resilience efforts, with 60% of respondents ranking data and AI among the top forces transforming operations in 2026.
The existing Hobart facility is already home to one of the region's Velocities MVC programs and serves as a link in Lineage’s Canada cross border program. The expansion of the site will help centralize these operations and provide additional capacity for customers, improving efficiencies in supply chains to provide enhanced service and opportunities for growth.
Lineage, Inc., the world’s largest global temperature-controlled warehouse REIT, celebrated the latest expansion of its cold storage facility in Hobart, Indiana. The project added approximately 188,000 square feet of space and 58,000 pallet positions featuring next-generation automation technology to Lineage’s existing Hobart site.
This is the third expansion of the building since 2008, making it the company’s largest North American facility serving multiple customers.
“This Hobart expansion represents an investment in innovation and supply chain solutions connectivity that helps our customers succeed,” said Greg Bryan, chief integrated solutions officer at Lineage. “As part of our Velocities program, this project shows how we’re working alongside our customers to provide cost competitive and consistent delivery of less-than-truckload, temperature-controlled products to the marketplace.”
The fully automated Hobart expansion is equipped to efficiently handle thousands of cases of product daily and better serve customers participating in Lineage’s Velocities multivendor freight consolidation program. Velocities combines shipments from multiple vendors into shared truckloads shipping on a fixed sailing schedule to retailer and foodservice distribution centers across the U.S. and Canada. The program was designed to help food and beverage producers, retailers, and distributors reduce transportation costs, meet strict delivery windows and increase supply chain reliability.
