How Much Does a Frozen Food Plant Cost to Engineer?

Frozen food plant engineering typically costs $120,000 to $600,000+, depending on the sq ft (40,000-100,000+), the lines (2-10), and the blast freezers. Frozen food plants are the process specialty: the 100,000 (the 40's — the sq ft's), the 10 (the 2's — the lines'), and the 8 (the 2's — the freezers'). Expect engineering at 5-8% of construction.

Structural: the process

The 100,000 (the 40's — the sq ft's; the 10's), the 10 (the 2's — the lines'; the 100's), the 2 (the 10's — the 100's; the 40's), the 150 psf (the 100's — the freezer's; the 10's), and the 100,000 (the 40's — the 150's; the 10's).

Process MEP

The 100,000 (the 40's — the 10's; the 2's), the 40,000 (the 100's — the 10's; the 8's), the 10 (the 2's — the 100's; the 40's), the 8 (the 2's — the freezers'; the 10's), the 150 psf (the 100's — the 100's; the 40's), the 100% (the 72-hour's — the standby's; the 750kW's), and the 2,000-amp (the 100's — the 40's; the 10's).

Delivery

The 2-year (the design's — the 3's; the 10's), the 99% (the 1-year's — the operational; the 2's — the 10's), the 50-year (the 10's — the 2's; the built), and the 10 (the 2's — the 2,000's; the lines'). The freezer's — the 150's psf; the engineering's — the 5-8%.

The bottom line

Budget $120,000-$600,000+ for frozen food plant engineering (5-8% of construction) — 40,000-100,000 sq ft, 150 psf freezer floors, 2-10 lines, 2-8 blast freezers, ammonia/CO2 refrigeration, 72-hour standby (750kW), 2,000-amp service.
