Tradepoint Atlantic announces Samuel Son & Co. Inc. as new tenant

Tradepoint Atlantic announced Samuel Son & Co. Inc. is joining the New Cold Mill facility located on Bethlehem Boulevard. The long-term lease for a 130,000 square foot facility will nearly double Samuel’s footprint in the region, continuing to bring more jobs and opportunities to Baltimore.

The facility will process and distribute aluminum and stainless-steel flat-roll and long products, which will support HVAC businesses, defense contractors, and domestic metal fabricators. The Samuel facility is integral in the manufacturing process by cutting metals, which are sourced both domestically and through global supply chains, into specified shapes before sending them to specialized producers.

“As a result of our strategic investments in marine, rail, and roadway infrastructure, Tradepoint Atlantic is uniquely positioned to serve Samuel’s domestic and international logistics needs,” said Kerry Doyle, Managing Director of Tradepoint Atlantic. “We are thrilled to help Samuel, a leader in metals and industrial manufacturing, nearly double their footprint in the region. This expansion aligns with our mission to attract best-in-class logistics and manufacturing companies that bring jobs and economic opportunity to Baltimore."

George Dowell, General Manager of the Baltimore Samuel Facility, added, “Samuel is a sixth-generation family-owned company, and people are at the heart of everything we do. Our employees are the source of our strength and we look forward to expanding our business and workforce in Baltimore. Our current facility supports 34 jobs, and this new expansion will allow us to continue to create more jobs and opportunities in the region.”

“Samuel's decision to expand operations at Tradepoint Atlantic shows that Maryland is a prime location for business growth,” said Maryland Department of Commerce Secretary Harry Coker, Jr. “Bolstered by its strategic location and connections to transportation infrastructure, Tradepoint Atlantic is a true Maryland success story with a clear vision for the future. We are proud of and grateful for our partnership with Samuel and Tradepoint Atlantic, and this expansion is a testament to the exciting opportunities ahead for our state."

“Supporting a strong workforce creates better jobs for our residents and new opportunities for our communities,” Baltimore County Executive Kathy Klausmeier added. “Samuel’s new expansion at Tradepoint Atlantic will continue to support and grow a thriving local economy. We look forward to Samuel continuing to innovate, expand, and create jobs here.”

Samuel commenced operations at their new facility last month.
