Master Provisions is scheduled to break ground on its expanded facility on June 27.
The ceremonial groundbreaking will take place at the 3.7-acre building site on 10205 Toebben Drive in Independence from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. The event will include a celebration of Master Provisions’ 30th anniversary of service.
Originally started in 1994 to assist Ukraine after the fall of communism, Master Provisions has now grown to partner with over 270 local nonprofits. This collaborative approach ensures over 81,000 people across Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana and West Virginia are fed each month.
Master Provisions also supports nine international partners with needed clothing and supplies.
So far, Master Provisions has raised $5.2 million to enable them to build an expandable facility starting with approximately 30,000 square feet. Increased vertical racking capacity and more efficient workflow designs will expand warehouse operations and storage space.
