CRG, the national real estate development and investment firm, announced that Hadrian, an advanced manufacturing company building AI-powered factories for America, will establish a large-scale manufacturing and software hub at the 269,500 square feet at Building A of The Cubes at Mesa Gateway. Known as Factory 3 (F3), the advanced manufacturing facility represents a $200 million investment by Hadrian and will create 350 new jobs in the region. F3 is slated to be fully operational by January 2026 — just six months from now — demonstrating Hadrian’s ability to launch new production capacity at unprecedented speed.
The new Mesa facility will bolster domestic manufacturing for critical aerospace and defense systems, strengthening U.S. supply chains in support of national security. Powered by Hadrian’s proprietary “Opus” software platform for production autonomy, the company’s highly automated factories are designed to come online in under six months. This rapid, automation-driven approach enables resilient supply chains and delivers mission-critical components faster than traditional manufacturing systems, while creating high-skill jobs for American workers.
“The Southeast Valley is booming with high-tech industries — from aerospace and defense to semiconductors and electric vehicles – but most of the area’s industrial inventory has historically catered to smaller users,” said Mark Sonnenberg, Executive Vice President and Partner, Southwest Region at CRG. “We’re delivering modern, secure industrial space with infrastructure specifically designed to support today’s advanced manufacturing operations. This includes generous above-market parking, a fully secured and expandable truck court, and robust power capacity — all features high-tech users like Hadrian need to scale quickly and operate efficiently in a single-tenant environment.”…
