Building - Factory
Being handled by Leading Northern Victoria Agent & Director of Cardamone Real Estate, Peter Cardamone, this outstanding Food Processing Plant is expected to attract strong interest. Located on the corner of Lemnos & New Dookie Road, this 8004m² site (approximately 2 acres) offers room to expand and ticks all the right boxes. The Industrial 1 zoning permits manufacturing, storage and distribution, with no heritage overlays.
The sale includes extensive fixed infrastructure, featuring a York Series S Spiral Freezer that was fully reconditioned in late 2025 with an approximate replacement value of $1,000,000, as well as an IQF Tunnel Freezer that has been recently installed with its own independent refrigeration system. The facility also includes three blast freezer rooms complete with a full ammonia refrigeration plant, compressors and condensers, along with five holding freezer rooms supported by full refrigeration infrastructure.
An industrial boiler provides steam supply to all cooking equipment while a 354 kW solar system contributes to energy efficiency. All ammonia refrigeration plant, pipework, compressors, condensers and controls are included, along with a Tempscan temperature control system, CCTV with 16 cameras, and radar detection. Originally constructed circa 1978, the facility has undergone substantial capital investment over the past decade, with upgrades made across virtually every room and system. Much of this investment is not immediately visible from the street, making an on-site inspection essential to fully appreciate the scale and quality of the improvements. A standout feature of the property is its smoking capability.
The three on-site multipurpose ovens, accommodating a total of five trolleys, are capable of producing authentically smoked products.
This is a rare offering at a facility of this certification level and presents a genuine market differentiator, enabling large-scale production for food service and QSR channels—an area experiencing growing demand with limited industrial-scale supply in Victoria. These ovens are available by separate negotiation.
Peter Cardamone notes that with a full upgrade of the facility and over $30,000,000.00 invested, serious buyers are expected to act quickly. The property is currently returning $500,000 per annum, positioning it as a high-end ROI opportunity.
All interest is appreciated and Cardamone Real Estate's Director Peter Cardamone has on hand the offical IM for genuine interested parties.
