Strong relationships and uncompromising quality are at the core of how Adler Industrial does business. Those values are once again on display with our latest acquisition and redevelopment project at Port Bienville Industrial Park in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. This comes as an expansion of our long-standing partnership with Point Eight Power, a Mission Critical Group company.
Following the successful completion of our work for JTS in Nampa, Idaho, the parent company, Point Eight Power, reached out to Adler Industrial with a new opportunity. With the success and the trust built through that project, Point Eight Power asked if Adler Industrial would consider purchasing and revitalizing a 72,000-square-foot facility that they currently occupy in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. Over the next 6 to 12 months, Adler Industrial will update and remodel the facility to meet modern operational standards and support long-term growth.
This opportunity underscores the power of connection. When projects are delivered with care, quality, and consistency, they lead to enduring relationships – and often, new opportunities to create value together.
A Strategic Acquisition at Port Bienville
The Hancock County Port and Harbor Commission (HCPHC) recently announced the successful sale of the Point Eight Power facility located within the Port Bienville Industrial Park. Adler Industrial acquired the property as the preferred development partner for Point Eight Power, marking an important milestone for the Port, its tenants, and the surrounding region.
As part of the transaction, Adler Industrial, Point Eight Power, and HCPHC formalized an agreement that includes a $2 million capital investment dedicated to facility improvements and necessary upgrades. These enhancements will be made with a clear focus on supporting the long-term operational needs of Point Eight Power and its customers. The work will ensure the facility remains efficient, reliable, and competitive for years to come.
This level of reinvestment reflects Adler Industrial’s approach to industrial real estate: acquiring assets with purpose, improving them with intention, and aligning development decisions with the operational realities of the companies that use them.
Investing in Long-Term Success
The planned improvements at the Bay St. Louis facility will modernize the building while reinforcing its role as a critical asset for Point Eight Power’s operations. By taking a long-term view and committing meaningful capital to upgrades, Adler Industrial is helping ensure the facility continues to serve as a foundation for workforce stability and operational excellence.
Blaine LaFontaine, Executive Director of the Hancock County Port and Harbor Commission, emphasized the importance of this partnership:
“HCPHC is grateful to have partners like Adler Industrial that are willing to invest in Port Bienville and give companies like Point Eight Power the facilities needed to secure its foundation and workforce in Hancock County.”
His comments reflect the shared goals behind this transaction of growth, stability, and a commitment to creating high-quality industrial environments.
Strengthening Regional Economic Impact
The sale and planned reinvestment also highlight HCPHC’s ongoing commitment to fostering an environment that attracts long-term tenants and high-value partnerships within Port Bienville Industrial Park. Strategic collaborations like this one reinforce the region’s economic strength by encouraging capital investment, supporting local jobs, and ensuring facilities evolve alongside the needs of modern businesses.
For Adler Industrial, this project represents more than a single acquisition. It is a continuation of a relationship built on trust, performance, and shared objectives. From Idaho to Mississippi, our work with Point Eight Power demonstrates how delivering quality solutions can open doors to new opportunities and long-term partnerships.
As redevelopment moves forward over the coming months, Adler Industrial remains focused on what matters most: creating durable, well-designed industrial facilities that support our partners’ success today and well into the future.
