Certco held a groundbreaking ceremony May 18 for a 150,000-s.f. cooler addition to its existing freezer building at 4802 Femrite Drive in Madison, Wisconsin.

The existing building is 172,285-s.f. and opened in 2010. The expansion will allow Verona, Wisconsin-based Certco to increase its natural, organic, specialty and refrigerated offerings to independent supermarkets in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois and Iowa.
