ABC Awards
Merritt Construction Services was awarded ABC Baltimore Awards of Excellence for our work with Holly Poultry ($5-$10 Million New Project) and Cask & Grain ($500,000-$1 Million Interior Fitout), and Awards of Merit for our work with Omega Healthcare (Interior Fitout Over $1 Million) and United Foods ($1-$5 Million Renovation). Holly Poultry In 2014, Holly Poultry was looking to expand its poultry processing capabilities due to a rapid increase of product demand over several years. Merritt Construction Services was hired to identify sites that could allow them to expand their Baltimore operations and build a new 37,500-square- foot state-of-the-art food-processing facility. Cask & Grain In early 2016, Merritt began work on a design-build project to convert a 2,250-square-foot early 1900’s row house, a former residence turned salon, into a farm-to- table restaurant. Construction included two dining areas, a kitchen, a bar, a façade facelift, new roofing and structural reinforcing, and new mechanical, electrical, and fire suppression systems. Less than a year from the start of construction, Cask & Grain Kitchen opened to the public on January 7, 2017 with rave reviews.
Omega Healthcare Tenant Omega Healthcare chose the second floor of 303 International Circle in Hunt Valley to house their new headquarters. The 27,176-square-foot office was previously vacant, allowing Omega to create a space specifically formatted for their needs. Merritt Construction Services began renovation to create a modern, open feel in October 2016. Today, the space consists of higher ceilings, 21 private offices with glass doors on the window line, 46 workstations, four confer¬ence rooms, a 1,340-square-foot board room, a front reception area featuring a stone accent wall, and a large break room featuring a full kitchen. United Foods The United Foods project involved the renovation of 39,000 square feet of an existing industrial warehouse, converting it into a full-size, food-processing facility. The facility includes three preparatory rooms, wet and dry production and packaging areas, a refrigerated cooler and freezer, an equipment storage area, and space dedicated to shipping and receiving. It also features space for the storage of ingredients and a 7,820-square-foot front office with restrooms, locker rooms, a break room, a kitchen, private offices, two conference rooms and areas for research and development.
