Granger, IN
Honey Baked Ham has chosen Ancon Construction, premier design build construction firm, to build out their new location in Granger, IN. They will take over a tenant space within Toscana Park. This large upscale shopping complex is located near Gumwood and Cleveland Road just north of Heritage Square.
Honey Baked Ham is relocating from their long standing location off of Ironwood and Edison in South Bend to better serve their clients and take advantage of the new development happening near Toscana Park. The new space will occupy 2,800 square feet and will feature a sit down deli cafe as well as the traditional carryout & delivery services. Ancon Construction worked closely with commercial real estate broker Bradley Company to create and design the interior layout for their new home. Eric Jensen, architect for Ancon Construction, stated, “Having the client, commercial broker, landlord, design and construction team working together as one design|build team allowed us take our client’s vision and make it a reality while staying on budget and on schedule. Our team approach is what creates a unique customer experience for our clients”.
More Than Just a Pickup
Honey Baked Ham has become more than just a store to stop by and pickup your holiday treats…they now have a loyalty rewards program. They have also created a fundraising program for non profits to provide yet another way to give back to the community.
Construction is slated to begin early July. Look for more updates as the project progresses.

Apostolic Temple Church, located on Ironwood Drive in South Bend, IN and Architect/General Contractor Ancon Construction will begin Phase 1 of a building project which aims to improve building accessibility. The phased projects will have an initial focus on improving building accessibility.
Phase 1, overseen by Project Manager Ken Wright, will include a new entrance canopy, sloped concrete walk, expanded north lobby, and a new ADA restroom. “One of the most common ministry design challenge is overcoming barriers such as existing stairs/steps, lack of maneuvering clearance for wheel chairs, or original restrooms that do not meet current ADA compliance standards,” explains Ancon Designer Matthew VanSoest. “Solutions to these issues are typically very challenging since we have limited space to work with. We are dealing with existing conditions from the early to mid-1900’s and are trying to upgrade/modify many aspects of the built environment – bringing them to current standards and/or compliance.”

Day 1 Of Demo Underway!
In addition to new construction and renovation we also specialize in tenant improvement (TI) also known as tenant build out. Our demo crew is working on the first of over 50 new workout locations planned for Indiana and southern Michigan. The first location for our new fitness client takes us down to Logansport, IN where we are demoing an 8,000 sqft retail space and re-building to meet our client’s national construction and brand specs. The picture shown was taken after our first day of demo!
Working with national brands and ensuring compliance takes a construction firm with experience. We have worked with many Fortune 500 companies and their construction/brand standards over the years and excel at exceeding their requirements. Our success is based on having licensed in house architects, experienced project managers and dedicated construction crews. Combined with the way we communicate and constantly update our clients, national brands prefer to use ANCON Construction when their business or franchise comes into our region. Who is the new fitness chain you ask? You will have to follow us as we update the project right up until opening day!
