180,000 SF on 7 Acres at CityNorth

Wespac Construction, Inc. has officially begun work on the future headquarters for Sprouts Farmers Market, a mixed-use development located in north Phoenix’s CityNorth district near 56th Street and Loop 101. The expansive seven-acre campus will feature more than 180,000 square feet of new construction, anchored by a four-story, 144,500-square-foot Class A office building that will house Sprouts’ expanding corporate workforce. The project will also include a 25,000-square-foot flagship Sprouts grocery store, 11,000 square feet of upscale retail and dining options, and a three-level parking structure to support the site.

Wespac Construction, Inc. is proud to officially break ground on the new Sprouts Farmers Market Headquarters, a dynamic mixed-use campus in the heart of north Phoenix. This milestone marks the beginning of an exciting journey alongside our valued project partners: Sprouts Farmers Market, Trammell Crow Company, RSP Architects, Keyser, and JLL.

Located within the CityNorth development near 56th Street and the Loop 101, the future Sprouts campus will span more than 180,000 SF across seven acres. The centerpiece is a four-story, 144,500 SF Class A office building that will become the new home for Sprouts’ growing corporate team. Also included are a 25,000 SF flagship Sprouts grocery store, 11,000 SF of high-end retail and restaurant space, and a three-story parking garage.

“This project represents a major investment in the future of north Phoenix,” said Kirk Jonovich, Principal and Vice President at Wespac. “We’re proud to partner with Sprouts and Trammell Crow Company to build a headquarters that not only supports Sprouts’ continued growth, but also brings high-quality jobs, community-focused retail, and thoughtful design to one of the Valley’s fastest-growing corridors. The new campus will be a cornerstone for innovation, wellness, and economic development in this region for years to come.”

The groundbreaking ceremony, held last month, brought together leadership from Sprouts and all project collaborators to celebrate the launch of a headquarters designed to elevate employee wellness and customer engagement alike. Plans for the campus include modern amenities such as an on-site gym, yoga studio, top-floor deck, Press Coffee café, culinary kitchens, tasting rooms, and even a garden for chef-driven meals and community events.

As one of the nation’s fastest-growing specialty grocers, Sprouts has nearly 450 locations across 24 states and is continuing its expansion with 33 new stores opening in 2024 and at least 35 more planned for 2025. The new headquarters will support that growth by fostering in-person collaboration and deeper community engagement.

Sprouts will transition from its current 96,000 SF space to the new location by August 2026.

The project is being developed by Trammell Crow Company, with architectural design by RSP Architects, and brokers from Keyser and JLL.

@honeywell_aero announced plans to invest $500 million in a new 300,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Tempe. The expansion will help the company meet growing demand from commercial aviation and defense customers. The advanced facility will feature robotics, automated inspections, digital production systems, and digital twin technology. These capabilities will improve manufacturing efficiency and support next-generation aerospace technologies.

Located near the Honeywell Aerospace global headquarters in Phoenix, the facility will expand precision machining capabilities and strengthen supply chains. It will also increase production of advanced systems, including Assure actuation systems and Attune cooling subsystems. The expansion will support existing customer programs, $15 billion in new Control Systems program awards, and critical defense technologies.

Honeywell Aerospace expects to open the facility in late 2028. The investment will eventually create approximately 600 permanent jobs and expand the company’s skilled workforce. Additionally, construction will support more than 1,000 local jobs, providing a significant economic boost to @tempegov. #honeywellaerospace #tempeaz #advancedmanufacturing #silicondesert #metrophx #metrophoenix

According to @azcommerce, a delegation of more than 30 Arizona legislative, business and economic development leaders completed a four-day trade mission to Ireland. The visit focused on expanding partnerships in high-tech industries, research, innovation and workforce development. Arizona and Ireland share strengths in semiconductors, medical technology, artificial intelligence, quantum technology, pharmaceuticals and clean energy. Trade between Arizona and Ireland exceeded $850 million in 2025.

The delegation met with officials from the U.S. Embassy in Dublin, Ireland’s Department of Foreign Affairs and IDA Ireland. Members also visited Dublin City University and Trinity College Dublin to discuss research and workforce partnerships. At Intel Ireland, the group toured a campus that employs nearly 5,000 people and includes Fab 34, Europe’s first high-volume semiconductor facility to use Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) lithography. Intel’s Fab 52 in Chandler also uses EUV technology and will manufacture Intel 18A chips, highlighting the semiconductor connections between Arizona and Ireland.

Additional visits included the Guinness Enterprise Centre, Enterprise Ireland and a roundtable hosted by the American Chamber of Commerce Ireland. The delegation also visited the Irish Parliament in Dublin, where lawmakers formally recognized the Arizona group during a parliamentary session. #ireland #irishdelegation #trademission #silicondesert #metrophx
