Start-Up Description
Investment opportunity to participate in the development of a large-scale port container staging and industrial outdoor storage facility located on approximately 70 acres of industrial-zoned land in King County, Washington, strategically positioned to support container overflow and logistics operations serving the Seattle/Tacoma port complex.

This project is designed to address the increasing demand for container staging, overflow storage, and logistical support services for freight owners, drayage carriers, and import/export operators experiencing congestion and capacity limitations at port terminals and surrounding infrastructure.
The planned facility will support a minimum throughput capacity of approximately 600 containers per day, with additional capacity achievable through vertical stacking (subject to local zoning and height regulations). Revenue will be generated through container storage fees charged on a daily per-container basis, as well as additional service fees including container retrieval, yard handling, and optional container delivery to customer warehouses or distribution facilities.

The underlying real estate asset provides substantial intrinsic value and collateral support for the investment, while the operational model provides recurring revenue potential tied directly to port activity and freight demand.

This business is structured to be qualified as a Section 1202 Qualified Small Business Corporation (QSBS), offering investors the potential for significant federal capital gains tax exclusion upon exit, subject to IRS requirements and holding period compliance.

Ownership equity is being offered in exchange for development capital, with investment terms structured based on investor participation level. The ownership group is open to both individual and institutional investors seeking exposure to logistics infrastructure, industrial outdoor storage, and port-related real estate development.

Capital & Financing: This project is seeking $45,000,000 in development and operational capital. Equity participation will be negotiated individually with investors. Funds will be used for land acquisition, site development, operational setup, staffing, and infrastructure. No royalties or franchise fees apply. Customer revenue will come from container storage, handling, and optional delivery services.
About the Business
Facilities & Assets
Planned acquisition and development of a 70-acre industrial-zoned site in King County, Washington near the Seattle/Tacoma port complex. The undeveloped property will be improved for container staging and industrial outdoor storage, including secured access, truck circulation, and yard infrastructure. The large-scale site provides significant hard asset backing and scalable capacity to support high-volume container storage and long-term logistics revenue.
Market Outlook / Competition
Port congestion, limited terminal space, and increasing import volumes have created strong demand for off-port container storage and staging near the Seattle/Tacoma port complex. Industrial outdoor storage supply is limited due to zoning restrictions and scarce available land. Competition exists but is constrained by land availability and location. A strategically located 70-acre facility is well positioned to capture growing demand from importers, exporters, and logistics providers requiring flexible container storage solutions.
About the Sale
Transition Support
Ownership team will oversee development, launch, and operational setup, including site development, vendor coordination, staffing, and customer acquisition. Investors will receive ongoing reporting, operational transparency, and strategic support. Full transition and long-term management structure will be established to ensure successful operations.
