Eugene-based Hummingbird Wholesale is putting the finishing touches on a newly renovated warehouse filled with sustainable materials.

Now the former warehouse — bought for $1.39 million last August — is two stories, “barn red,” fully insulated with rows of windows and rife with sustainable materials and hardware. Blueprints allot the company 19,000 square feet of floor space, while tenants and community areas will make up the rest.

In anticipation of the move, Hummingbird has already hired three new full-time and one part-time employees. This puts the growing business’ work force at 29, including two owners and six part-timers. [Owner Charlie] Tilt said the company will also likely need two more full-time employees in the coming year.
