WebstaurantStore continues Lyon County investment with 620,000 square-foot Dayton facility

DAYTON — Lyon County’s industrial development is about to welcome its largest commercial project thanks to WebstaurantStore. Miles Construction, a Carson City based diversified general contractor, is working with the restaurant equipment supplier on an expansion of their Dayton distribution facility with construction of a new 620,000 square foot building, making it the largest such project in the county.

WebstaurantStore has seen continued success with its Lyon County operations, creating the need for this additional building on the heels of an expansion that was completed on their original building across the street earlier this year. Upon completion of this structure, WebstaurantStore will have a more than 900,000 square feet of infrastructure, putting Lyon County on the map for future large-scale industrial projects.

“Northern Nevada and Lyon County have proven to be an ideal location for our business,” Scott Stevens, director of operations – West for WebstaurantStore, said. “With the support of Miles Construction and their construction management expertise, they have been invaluable in helping us navigate our builds and supporting us in our work with Lyon County. We’re proud to invest back into this community and continue to see potential down the road.”

Pursing a project of this scope in the current construction climate demonstrates how serious WebstaurantStore is in their efforts. With construction and material prices escalating daily, the scope of the project continues to climb. However, WebstaurantStore remains committed to the community and the business-friendly environment of Lyon County and Nevada.

“We have worked with WebstaurantStore managing the construction of their facilities, beginning with construction of their original distribution center in 2016,” Cary Richardson, vice president of business development at Miles Construction, said. “We bring a whole team approach including supporting the business services side of the project from the ground up in addition to being their boots-on-the-ground for permitting and county related details. We are proud to work with a company that has such great values, invests back into the local economy and strives to do more.”

Groundwork is currently being completed with a tentative construction start date later this month and targeted completion by fall 2022.
