“It’s simple when you partner with best-in-class companies,” said Mike Turner, Cheney Brothers’ Florence facility president. “It’s been a pleasure working with A M King over the years while they have helped us grow our footprint here in the Carolinas with the best buildings in the industry. We truly appreciate their professionalism, attention to detail, and the commitment to excellence throughout this project. We know A M King and they know us. Relationship matters!”   

Warren Newell, Cheney Brothers’ Director of Development, stated, “I have worked with dozens of design-build and construction firms over the years, and I can honestly say that A M King is one of the finest. They designed and constructed a first-class distribution center for us in Florence, which will strengthen our ability to serve Southeast Atlantic coastal customers.”

A M King Vice President David Sawicki said, “We were thrilled to partner with Cheney Brothers to develop a facility of this magnitude and complexity. Our history of successful projects for CBI, along with our depth and breadth of food industry expertise, made this an ideal venture.”
