Orlando, Fla. (Feb., 5, 2026) – As demand grows for small-bay industrial space that supports local businesses while respecting surrounding neighborhoods, Foundry Commercial has closed on Edgewood Park of Commerce (EPOC), a 565,600-square-foot industrial development located on a 41-acre infill site near downtown Orlando. Situated on a portion of the historic Randall Knives manufacturing property, EPOC reflects both the site’s industrial legacy and a forward-looking approach to development in established urban corridors.
EPOC exemplifies Foundry Commercial’s focus on thoughtfully designed small-bay industrial projects tailored to local service businesses and light manufacturers. These tenant spaces, typically ranging in size from 10,000 to 20,000 square feet, serve companies such as HVAC suppliers, lighting distributors, and contractors – businesses that operate close to their customer base and help keep communities running.
Given the site’s proximity to established residential neighborhoods, the development was guided by a deliberate and design-driven planning approach. Following public hearings, the project ultimately received unanimous city approval. The approved plan includes six buildings designed specifically for small-bay users, with extensive landscaping, buffering, scaled building heights, and truck courts discreetly positioned between structures to reduce traffic, noise, and visual impacts.
“Edgewood Park of Commerce shows what’s possible when industrial development is approached with intention,” said Moses Salcido, SIOR, a Deal Principal within Foundry’s Development and Investments platform. “Small-bay industrial projects like this one are designed around local service businesses, allowing essential goods and services to reach nearby communities while remaining aligned with their context. That balance is critical for long-term success.”
The opportunity was sourced by both Salcido and Lawson Dann, Senior Vice President and a 30-year commercial real estate veteran with deep roots in Central Florida. His market knowledge and long-standing relationships were instrumental in identifying and advancing this highly nuanced infill opportunity. Also critical to this process was Foundry’s North Florida industrial brokerage team – Justin Ruby, Joey Woodman, and Travis Hammond – who provided underwriting support, tenant demand data, and real-time market intelligence that validated small-bay industrial as the site’s highest and best use. The closing also reflects the continued momentum of Foundry Commercial’s Development & Investments (D&I) platform, which closed 2025 with a $3.6 billion portfolio spanning multiple asset types and geographic markets. That performance earned Foundry recognition as one of Commercial Property Executive’s Top 10 Developers of 2025.
Edgewood Park of Commerce reinforces Foundry Commercial’s role at the forefront of a growing movement toward industrial development that is both market-driven and community-conscious. The development is slated to deliver in the second half of 2027.
