Airport Commerce Center is nearing construction of the NXTPoint Logistics headquarters north of Jacksonville International Airport in North Jacksonville.
The city is reviewing site development plans for owner The Suddath Cos. to prepare 76.64 acres for an industrial development of two buildings that total 821,720 square feet of space.
The master site plan of the phased project shows Building E at 566,720 square feet and Building F at 255,000 square feet.
Jacksonville-based Suddath said previously the park will start with a distribution center for its NXTPoint Logistics subsidiary, a distribution, warehouse and fulfillment company.
Evan Walton, Suddath senior vice president of real estate and construction, said March 19 that NXTPoint Logistics would establish its headquarters in a roughly 566,000-square-foot building on the Phase 2 property. The estimated 250,000-square-foot building would be for use by NXTPoint or another tenant.
England-Thims & Miller Inc. is the project’s civil engineer.
Called Airport Commerce Center Phase 2, the two buildings appear to be the first to be built in the industrial park.
Airport Commerce Center is designed for five industrial buildings totaling about 3 million square feet of space west of Pecan Park Road and south of Arnold Road, also called Gold Star Family Parkway.
The property is west of Interstate 95 and west of the Jacksonville Port Authority North Jacksonville marine terminals.
Since August 2025, a Suddath property subsidiary has paid more than $20 million for 312 acres to create Airport Commerce Center. The company said 200.7 acres are upland, meaning they are above the wetland and can be developed.
Less than two weeks after buying the final parcel to create Airport Commerce Center, Suddath began efforts toward road and utility site work. Evans General Contractors LLC of Jacksonville is the contractor for the estimated $15 million project, according to a permit created in the processing system March 30.
Through Airport Commerce Center LLC, Suddath wants to start horizontal development with construction of a spine road and utilities for future warehouse construction. The address is 14710 Pecan Park Road.
The master site plan refers to an internal road called Airport Commerce Drive.
Suddath, a Jacksonville-based logistics company, said March 19 it closed March 18 on the final Phase 3 land purchase at Airport Commerce Center, meaning it could start to develop the industrial park.
Phase 1A comprises mass grading, site clearing, infrastructure and utilities.
Phase 1B can fit up to 1.1 million square feet among one or several buildings, depending on demand.
Phase 3 is a nearly 1.08 million-square-foot building. No tenant has been identified.
The city issued four permits Dec. 16 for horizontal development to start work toward the three-phase development. The permits were for site clearing, timber harvest and mass grading.
Established in 1919 in Jacksonville, The Suddath Cos. said it has grown into a $900 million global transportation, relocation management and logistics company, serving 180 countries with 2,000 employees worldwide.
“As a 106-year-old, Jacksonville-based company, we’re proud to continue investing in our hometown and the airport corridor. We will use the development of our own building for our NXTPoint Logistics subsidiary as a springboard for the development of the overall industrial park,” Chairman Steven Suddath said in an Aug. 22 news release.
