Overview

This approximately 4,000 square foot food production facility has been rebuilt from the shell up and extensively upgraded, with nearly $1,000,000 in capital improvements completed between 2016 and 2021. The layout is designed for operational efficiency and compliance, and it features upgraded electrical, gas, and water service throughout. The turnkey facility includes a HEPA-filtered air system and fully modernized sanitary infrastructure intended to meet strict regulatory standards. Cold storage is built in with a 12 x 12 walk-in cooler and a 14 x 12 freezer, supporting food processing and finished-goods handling in one location.

The property is zoned C-4 and is located in the Santa Cruz market, with regional connectivity to Highway 1 and Highway 17 and broader Bay Area demand drivers.

For operators seeking a ready-to-run, food-grade processing site, the combination of modern utilities, HEPA-filtered air, compliant sanitary systems, and dedicated refrigerated storage is a practical fit. The current occupant holds one of only two tuna canning licenses in California, underscoring the high barrier associated with this use. As presented, the building is set up to support regulated food production activities with the core infrastructure already in place.
