PREMIER Begins Massive Industrial Project in Southern California

Collaboration and Transparency Keep Project on Track to Meet Aggressive Schedule

July 2, 2025 (Ontario, CA)–PREMIER Design + Build Group, LLC has officially broken ground on the South Ontario Logistics Center – Building 6 (SOLC), a nearly 700,000-square-foot industrial development in Ontario, California, by Real Estate Development Associates, LLC and Clarion Partners, LLC. Originally brought on for site preparation, PREMIER’s role quickly expanded to full oversight of this fast-tracked build, with delivery targeted for June 2026.

“We are excited to step up to the plate and see this project through to completion,” says Jeramy Mahfet, Southwest Market Lead. “Our deep experience in large-scale industrial developments—both in the Southwest and nationwide—positions us to deliver this facility on time and with precision.”

Designed to meet the evolving demands of modern logistics, SOLC will feature 113 dock doors, 261 trailer stalls, 445 parking spaces, and robust utility infrastructure including dual 2,000-kilowatt generators and a 16,000-amp electrical service.

Sustainability is a key component of development. The facility will include a solar array and a high-performance DUCTILCRETE® slab, an innovative concrete system engineered to reduce joints by up to 75% while maintaining strength. Its thinner profile also significantly lowers CO₂ emissions compared to traditional slab construction, supporting the client’s LEED certification goals.

To maintain momentum on this accelerated schedule, REDA and PREMIER are working in close coordination with the City of Ontario, whose commitment to expedited plan reviews and permitting has been instrumental in keeping the project on track.
