Campanelli is also hard at work on a 9,000 s/f expansion for Zildjian, a world renowned, centuries-old manufacturer of musical cymbals. Zildjian, founded nearly four centuries ago, is the largest manufacturer of cymbals in the world. The company currently occupies a 75,000 s/f facility in Norwell. "We are thrilled to be named general contractor on these projects, helping two great companies expand their facilities on the South Shore," said Jeff DeMarco, president of construction at Campanelli. , "Both Symmons and Zildjian have a strong presence in our community, and it's exciting to be working with them as they grow." Campanelli Construction is actively working on construction projects across the United States. Most recently they broke ground on a 250,000 SF warehouse and distribution center for Victory Packaging in Bellingham, Massachusetts. Other current construction projects include an 83,000 SF facility for Edesia in North Kingston, Rhode Island, and a 262 unit multi-family development at Upland Woods in Norwood, Massachusetts.
