Probat has moved its North American operations to a newly constructed, customised industrial facility in Illnois.
Covering more than 10,000 square metres, the new facility on the corner of Half Day Road and Milwaukee Avenue – in the Lincolnshire Corporate Center – more than doubles the size of Probat’s previous United States location. The coffee roasting equipment and technology manufacturer says the will allow for its continued growth in North America.
“This new facility is ideal for a market leading engineering and manufacturing company like Probat, which is known for its precision craftsmanship, superior design. and world class customer service,” Probat President John Fortin says.
“It provides an excellent location to support our exciting strategic growth initiatives well into the future.”
Probat’s new North American home includes expanded fabrication and assembly space, on-site warehouse space, modern and expanded offices, and an adjacent showroom where clients can preview and test some of the manufacturer’s best technology and solutions for coffee roasting.
“This move was long overdue as a result of Probat’s expansion in the US market, and we actually began planning for the additional space over four years ago,” Fortin says.
“It was about finding the right location that would allow Probat to continue to grow our technological resources and our market leading service organisation, while providing the infrastructure to allow us to expand our manufacturing presence in the US for both the Probat and Burns coffee roasting equipment product lines.”
