SAUK RAPIDS - A Sauk Rapids refrigeration company is moving this week into a bigger building, with plans to expand.  Carlson & Stewart Refrigeration is moving from their current location on 9th Avenue South to a building at 189 Industrial Boulevard.

Operations Manager Cory Schreifels says they're hoping to have the move completed by this Friday. Their new location, which is former "Closet Logic" building along Highway 10, is almost double the size of their previous two buildings.

Schreifels says they have 22 employees now, and their plan is to add more service technicians as soon as this summer.

Their two old buildings on 9th Avenue South have already been sold.

Carlson & Stewart Refrigeration bought the Sauk Rapids company two years ago. They provide industrial and commercial refrigeration service, including short-notice, emergency service, 24 hours a day, seven days a week to the meat packing, poultry, dairy, beverage, bakery, and cold storage industries as well as refrigeration equipment for supermarkets.  The company was founded in 1935 in Marshall, Minnesota.
