A Clinton County construction company will soon break ground on a new corporate headquarters and warehouse slated to open next summer.

Breese-based Poettker Construction Company will break ground Monday, July 9, for their new 39,400 square-foot building just south of the company’s current headquarters on Germantown Road.

Company President Keith Poettker said the groundbreaking comes in its 38th year of business.

Poettker said in a press release that there was no better way to honor the culture, community and longtime employees than a beautiful new headquarters that reflects their roots in their hometown of Breese.

The company is working with St. Louis-based architecture and interior design firm Oculus Inc. to design the new facility.

The design of the future headquarters will be styled after German “bank barns,” or barns built into a bank or hillside.
Poettker Construction Company was established in 1980 and employs 124 full-time employees.
