Cargo Food Authority

We always look forward to projects that provide a design challenge. So, when we got the chance to work on Brian Ingram’s latest project in downtown Minneapolis – Cargo Food Authority – we were really excited! The goal was to create a food hall just outside of the Target Center using old shipping containers. As you might imagine, working within the constraints and limitations of the containers required some creative problem-solving.

The first step was to find and purchase the containers. With the help of Mark Palm at Chameleon Concessions, we sourced five of them and cut in doors, windows, and holes in the ceilings for exhaust ventilation. Getting them inside the main hall proved to be the most difficult aspect of our project. Each container had to be carefully craned on-site and then forklifted into place inside the building. We had just 3/4″ of height to spare between the top of the containers and the ceiling!
