Mokena - Perfect for Flex Warehousing

• Mokena, Illinois, has a developing industrial sector that benefits

from its strategic location in the Chicago Southland area,

particularly with convenient access to Interstate 80 and other major

transportation routes. While not as large as some of the more

established industrial hubs in the greater Chicago metropolitan

area, Mokena is actively working to promote and expand its

industrial presence.

Here's a breakdown of the Mokena industrial landscape:

Key Characteristics:

Location Advantage: Mokena's proximity to I-80 and other major

roads makes it attractive for logistics, distribution, and

manufacturing businesses that require efficient transportation of

goods. It's also within an hour's drive of Chicago's major airports

(Midway and O'Hare).

Growing Market: The Mokena industrial market has seen new

developments and continued interest, with industrial properties

frequently listed for sale and lease. There's a recognized demand

for functional warehouse and distribution spaces.

spaces to larger distribution centers.

Zoning for Industrial Development: The Village of Mokena has

established distinct industrial zoning districts (I-1 Limited Industrial,

I-2 General Industrial, and I-3 Intensive Industrial) designed to

accommodate a broad range of industrial development while also

considering proximity to residential and business uses. These

zones have specific regulations regarding lot size, setbacks,

building height, and permitted uses.

Focus on Planned Industrial Parks: The village's policy is to

promote industrial development within municipal planned industrial

parks, aiming to group compatible industrial activities and ensure

proper infrastructure and services. • Types of Businesses and Industries:

While a comprehensive list of all industrial businesses isn't readily

available, the types of industrial operations commonly found or

sought in Mokena include:

Manufacturing and Production: Industrial spaces are often tailored

for these activities, featuring reinforced floors, extensive power

systems, and specialized infrastructure for heavy machinery.

Warehousing and Distribution: This is a significant component, with

many spaces designed for storage and efficient logistics, including

tall ceilings and loading docks. Businesses like Darvin Furniture

Warehouse and Dunkin Donuts Distribution Center have a

presence here.
