Harvest Market

Springfield, IL

Niemann Foods selected DBS Group to convert its existing County Market store in Springfield, Illinois, into a Harvest Market store. The store closely matches the Harvest Market DBS Group designed and built in Champaign, Illinois, three years earlier. The project incorporated an approximately 15,000-square-foot expansion to the existing facility, including a 9,500-square-foot mezzanine area, a new storefront feature, a clerestory roof structure typical to a Harvest Market, the removal of the existing County Market storefront feature, a temporary store-set for the County Market to operate during a portion of the project and the conversion of the existing County Market interior into a typical Harvest Market. Construction began in fall 2019 and was completed on schedule in fall 2020.

    “We’ve worked with other developers and contractors in the past, and nobody is as organized as DBS was. They kept all of the subcontractors on task and on time and communicated with us throughout. They were on our side and gave us that personal touch. I feel like it’s more of a friendship now than a business transaction. If you want a headache-free experience and fair pricing, I definitely recommend them.”

    “This was my first time building anything, and I would 100% recommend/work with DBS again. They made the building process very easy and stress-free. I really enjoyed how inclusive they let me be throughout the design and construction process. My field manager, Kevin, was fantastic to work with. He kept everyone on task and was always happy to walk through and answer all my questions about the process. All in all, I could not have asked for a better company to help me build my family business to succeed for many years to come!”

    “DBS Group was very professional, and they really worked hard on getting our project done on time and within budget. If we had questions, they took care of us immediately. If we weren’t sure about something, they sat down and explained it all the way through. They were especially good at working with all the different contracts involved and keeping us up to date. I definitely recommend them.”

    “DBS Group made a large project for a small business very manageable. We were impressed with other similar grocery projects they had completed in the Midwest, and from the very first meeting, we were very pleased with the personal, but the professional approach they had to construction management, and we felt they would be a great fit to our second ground up grocery store project. Our job superintendent from DBS Group worked long hours to be there every step of the way, and we met regularly with the rest of the DBS team to ensure we stayed on time and on budget. We would enthusiastically recommend DBS Group for any commercial construction project and will certainly involve them on any future projects of our own!”
