The facility, overseen by the Boston-based firm Rhino Capital Advisors, is slated for completion next summer.
Currently, the 1,029-acre Myles Standish Industrial Park already hosts tenants ranging across the technology, manufacturing, distribution and warehouse spheres.
In a statement, Dan Charest, JC&A partner and project executive, called the upcoming development “a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation.
“We are thrilled to be part of a project that will bring significant economic and social benefits to the Taunton community,” Charest said.
Michael Olson, managing principal at Rhino Capital Advisors, also spoke on the project’s economic potential in the community.
“The start of construction here at Myles Standish represents more than just a new building; it symbolizes progress and a commitment to creating high-paying jobs that enhance the quality of life for both employees and the community,” Olson said.
