Washington, Kansas is the home of a small manufacturing company located in an industrial park on the south side of town. This company made Pet Treats for small animals until they lost their contract several months ago. The plant has been closed with all of the manufacturing equipment still in tack for quick start up by another company. If a new owner wants to start the manufacture of a different product the building can be purchased without the equipment.

The 50’X100’ building is 4 years old and is located on 3.1 acres and has room for expansion to almost any length. The all metal building is fully insulated for an efficient use of utilities. At one end is a loading dock that runs the full width of the building allowing at lease three large trucks to load or unload at the same time. This dock area is large enough to allow forklifts to maneuver their loads easily.

There are several features of this property make it unique in many ways. Let’s start with the large transport refrigeration unit located on the outside of the building and a cargo storage unit that is attached to the building through an overhead door. The building is also equipped with three overhead doors 12 and 14 feet tall with 16 foot side walls. A room within the building can work as a dry room or a clean room since it has its own ventilation and heating system and is serviced by an overhead door into the main part of the building.

Other features of the building include a floor drain that runs the length of the building including a large grease trap located outside the building. The facility is connected to the city water supply as well as city sewer. The electrical service is 3-Phase 400 amp.

All of the equipment still remains in the building that was used to make Pet Treats including a McKenzie Tray Dryer, mixers, trays, racks and other equipment needed for this process. If the buyer is interested, an Extrusion machine can be purchase in addition to the equipment in the plant.


Two large bathrooms with showers allow employees a chance to clean-up before they return home. A reception and administrative area and employee break room are also a part of the complex.

This community is very manufacturing orientated and has a stable work force that can be trained to accommodate other manufactures. The building is very well maintained and is located within an attractive community and industrial park. Any prospective buyer must take a look at this property which is attractively priced at $289,000 for the building and equipment and $229,000 for the building only.
