Axium Packaging has planted a new flag in the Columbus suburbs, closing on a newly built warehouse in Pataskala as the New Albany-area company keeps beefing up its regional footprint. The single-story facility at 12101 Worthington Road SW is set to add both manufacturing and distribution capacity as Axium scales up in Central Ohio.
What Axium Bought
The property is a roughly 255,000-square-foot speculative industrial building marketed as part of the Edge Industrial Phase I development. Listing materials highlight 32-foot clear heights, 28 dock doors and space ready for immediate occupancy. According to LoopNet, the building sits on about 15 acres and was delivered earlier this year as shell space that can be tailored for either manufacturing or distribution use.
Deal Close Confirmed
CoStar reported that Axium closed on the purchase of the Pataskala warehouse as the company moves to expand its manufacturing capacity in the Columbus market. The CoStar report also lists broker contacts tied to the building.
How This Fits Axium's Growth Plans
From its New Albany headquarters, Axium has been steadily adding capacity across the Midwest and details multiple recent openings and investments on its news pages, according to Axium Packaging. That regional momentum, including a previously announced $45 million investment near Worthington Road, helps explain why the Pataskala site would be an appealing play, as noted in a regional release from Columbus Region.
Who Brokered The Transaction
The property's marketing materials list Robert LeVeck of LeVeck Commercial Real Estate as the listing broker, according to the LoopNet offering. Deal materials also identify CBRE's Nick Tomasone as a project contact. His profile on CBRE lists him as a senior vice president on the firm's Columbus industrial team.
What Comes Next
As of today, Axium's news page does not include a company press release about the Pataskala purchase, and there are no immediate public filings indicating staffing plans or equipment timelines for the site. For now, the building is a big empty canvas in Pataskala. We'll watch for filings, company statements, and any moves from local officials and will add details if Axium or public records shed more light on what is coming to Worthington Road.
