Belle Aire Creations Announces Expansion with “Porter East” Facility
Support Continued Growth and Innovation
Belle Aire Creations is proud to break ground on Porter East, a 27,400-square-foot expansion designed to strengthen operational excellence and support the company’s continued growth. Located directly across the street from Belle Aire Creations’ existing operations and manufacturing facility in Round Lake Park, Porter East will serve as a dedicated material storage warehouse with advanced inbound and outbound logistics, quality control testing labs, and modern employee collaboration spaces.
Set to be fully operational by May 2026, Porter East represents a strategic investment in efficiency, safety, and innovation. The new space will feature dedicated staging areas, a separate quality control lab for raw material testing and approval, along with expanded storage capacity — all designed to maintain Belle Aire Creations’ industry-leading 4–5 business day lead times.
“This expansion is a reflection of our ongoing commitment to excellence and the continued trust of our customers,” said Stacey David, CEO of Belle Aire Creations. “Porter East allows us to optimize operations, enhance product quality, and create an inspiring workspace for our growing team — all while continuing to deliver the creativity and speed that define who we are.”
The facility will include several employee-focused features, including an outdoor patio, walking path around the pond, café, and modern office and conference spaces, emphasizing Belle Aire Creations’ dedication to fostering a connected and collaborative workplace.
From an operational standpoint, Porter East is designed with built-in infrastructure for robust Wi-Fi coverage and a seamless Warehouse Management System (WMS), enabling directed put-away, optimized picking paths, and real-time location tracking. These upgrades will further improve accuracy, visibility, and speed across the supply chain.
The new facility is expected to add 10 new positions to support Belle Aire Creations’ expanding production and logistics capabilities.
“Porter East isn’t just a new facility — it’s a bold step forward for Belle Aire Creations and a major win for Round Lake Park and Lake County,” said Kevin Considine, the president and CEO of Lake County Partners. “This expansion reinforces the company’s deep roots in the community while setting the stage for innovation, growth, and new high-quality job creation. We appreciate this investment as it’s a signal of Belle Aire Creations’ long-term commitment to our community.”
The Ribbon Cutting Ceremony to break ground will take place on October 13, 2025, with Round Lake Park Mayor Robert Seminary, Kevin Considine and the Lake County Partners team, city officials, and company leadership in attendance to celebrate this milestone in Belle Aire Creations’ growth journey.
