Highland Group to Serve as Design-Builder for an Industrial Facility in Defuniak Springs, Florida

The Highland Group is proud to serve as the Design-Builder for Monolithic Building Systems’ manufacturing facility at the Mossy Head Industrial Park in Defuniak Springs, Fla. The 6 acre site will feature a 40,000 square foot manufacturing facility where Monolithic Building Systems will manufacture their Emmedue (M2) concrete panel building systems for the Southeastern United States.
