Pilgrim’s Pride — Cold Storage Facility

Jackson, Mississippi

Pilgrim’s Pride

Cold Storage Facility

Bought vacant out of bankruptcy. Sold to a REIT.

A vacant cold-storage facility in Jackson bought out of bankruptcy at a foreclosure sale — about half a million dollars in, roughly $6 per square foot — fitted up for Pilgrim’s Pride, an investment-grade poultry processor, and sold to a national REIT for more than $5 million as the lease commenced: a 600% return on the deal.

Return on the Deal

  • Bought vacant at a bankruptcy foreclosure sale — about half a million in, roughly $6 per square foot.
  • Pilgrim’s Pride signed: investment-grade credit, long-term need.
  • Sold to a national REIT for more than $5 million as the lease commenced.

While the Bass Pro and Braves deal was finishing in Mississippi, Craig went looking for industrial projects — and acquired a cold-storage facility in Jackson out of bankruptcy, at a foreclosure sale, vacant. About half a million dollars went in — roughly $6 a square foot.

The strategy was a commercial fix-and-flip: re-tenant it and sell it to an investor. Craig found the tenant — Pilgrim’s Pride, an investment-grade credit that processes chicken and needed cold storage — fitted the building up, and put them in.

As the lease was commencing, the building was sold to a national REIT for more than $5 million — a 600% return. The lesson Craig took from it: don’t judge the building by its cover. Look at who needs it, what they need to operate, and how a long-term lease with corporate credit behind it can change the value of the real estate overnight.

In His Own Words

Craig tells the story1:23

“You can’t judge the book by its cover.”

Who needs the building, what they need to operate — and a credit lease that changes the value overnight.

What Makes This Different

Few operators can point to a track record like this.

Not because they aren’t qualified —
but because the system was never built for them.

Distressed acquisition, credit tenant, institutional exit
Value created by the lease, not the building
Fast cycle — sold as the lease commenced

No middlemen. No gatekeepers.

Direct access to institutional-grade wellness real estate.
