Jebcore Companies has purchased a 69-acre site in Ruskin for $4.5 million and plans to transform the land into a multi-use waste management campus that will support future growth in Hillsborough County<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The acquisition includes a $3 million land purchase from Yu An Farms and $1.5 million in planning and due diligence costs. <\/p>\n

The parcel<\/a> is valued at more than $40 million based on its zoning, location and development potential.<\/p>\n

The site at 3030 Cockroach Bay Road is now fully entitled. Jebcore plans to either triple-net lease the property to qualified operators or sell it.<\/p>\n

What happened<\/p>\n

Jebcore Companies acquired the land through its development arm, JBCC Development. The firm said the property offered a rare chance to control a large site with approvals in place for several high-demand industrial uses.<\/p>\n

The planned campus will support municipal solid waste, recycling, composting and construction and demolition debris operations. <\/p>\n

The goal is to make the site move-in ready for operators while supporting jobs and economic activity in the surrounding area.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis project presented a unique opportunity given its zoning complexity, high barriers to entry and the scale of potential uses,\u201d said Clint Conway, Managing Member at JBCC Development. \u201cWe want to create a campus that is ready for operators and delivers long-term value for the community.\u201d<\/p>\n

Why it matters<\/p>\n

Ruskin continues to attract investment due to its location between Tampa<\/a> and Bradenton and its access to major transportation routes. Hillsborough County\u2019s growing population and expanding housing base are increasing demand for regional waste and recycling services.<\/p>\n

The 69-acre site sits near key roadways, rail lines and industrial activity. Jebcore leaders say these advantages make it well-positioned for end users seeking modern facilities with room to expand.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s next<\/p>\n

Jebcore has started marketing the site to operators and investment partners. With approvals in place and infrastructure planning complete, the firm expects strong interest from companies that need large-scale, well-located industrial sites with long-term growth potential.<\/p>\n

The project marks another step in Jebcore\u2019s strategy to deliver high-impact, region-shaping developments across the East Coast.<\/p>\n
