Red Fox Bakery Announces Oak Addition Area

(McMinnville, OR) -  Red Fox Bakery, a locally owned retail business, has announced the purchase of an existing building in the Oak Addition area on Alpine Street in McMinnville, near the Granary District. The building was previously used to manufacture pet beds. The Red Fox Bakery team will soon start to make improvements to the new site, and plans to complete various phases over the next few months. Leased space will be available starting in December and will be built to suit, contact Laurie or the McMinnville Economic Development Partnership for more information.

 “We are thrilled to help develop the neighborhood,” stated Laurie Furch. As well as leasing areas of the facility, the building is also slated to eventually help expand the Red Fox line. Red Fox Bakery will continue to run the retail business on 328 NE Evans Street.

“We are working to bring in tenants to our new facility that are complementary to our long-range strategic plan,” said Jason Furch.

A portion of the space has already been leased to a local graphic designer Krista McCallum and her husband Brad Speer, a ceramic artist who designs mugs, dishes, and art for the home. Speer will have a showroom in the space and possibly a kiln.  

 “It’s exciting to see this expansion for two local business owners,” stated Jody Christensen, Executive Director for McMinnville Economic Development Partnership.  “The development is being called “The Oak Park Project”.  The name is a result of the exciting work being done on the Northeast Gateway Project.”
