Another Delay for Pitco Development in Concord

Three years after the city first approved the idea, Bow-based Pitco asked for and received another extension on its proposal to build a huge manufacturing facility off Manchester Street in Concord, saying it needs the time to place a conservation easement on 15 acres of the property.

The manufacturer of commercial fryer equipment wants to build a 365,000-square-foot facility at 15 Integra Drive, combining the company’s three existing locations in Bow, Concord and Pembroke into one complex with offices, manufacturing and warehouse space.

The announcement to consolidate operations was hailed as a huge economic win for Concord, even though it came at the expense of neighboring Pembroke and Bow.
