Mainline Printing planning a commercial business park at site of ... - The Topeka Capital-Journal

The former site of White Lakes Mall may be vacant, but it's now under new ownership.

Mainline Development Group LLC will buy the land at 3600 S.W. Topeka Blvd. from KDL Inc. The deal was finalized Wednesday.

John Parker Jr., chief operating officer of Mainline Printing, said Mainline's goal has been to acquire the property. He said the deterioration of the former White Lakes Mall was a "very difficult process."

"That building was attached to our manufacturing facility," Parker said. "So, we've been hoping to get control of it and finally are in a position to have that."

Mainline Printing sued KDL in March 2021, alleging it neglected the former White Lakes Mall property and failed to keep it in "attractive and good condition."

What are the plans for the vacant lot where White Lakes Mall stood?

Parker said the plan is to revitalize the area into a commercial business park.

"It may have components of warehousing, light manufacturing," he said. "A sort of development like that will be a really positive fit for city of Topeka and Shawnee County."

Demolition of the former White Lakes mall began in the beginning of 2022 and was done by former property owner KDL Inc., which itself is owned by Topeka real estate developer Kent Lindemuth. KDL contracted with McPherson Wrecking Inc. for the project.

Brian Lensing, the listing agent for KDL, said the sale was a good decision and the "owner is happy and the buyer is happy."

Mainline Printing was awarded up to $250,000 in incentives to expand into the former Gordman's building at 3245 S.W. Topeka Blvd. Parker told The Capital-Journal the company will be in the Gordman's building "some time this year, with new equipment."

"This commercial business park is just another piece of that investment," Parker said.

He said Mainline Printing is in good shape spacewise between its current location and the Gordman's location.

The lot of the former White Lakes Shopping Mall is 21.07 acres and was appraised at $743,620.

In the early months of 2020, as COVID-19 left many small and medium-sized businesses struggling in its wake, Virginia Tech Pamplin College of Business alumnus and Jives Media founder Jay Ives saw an opportunity to serve his local community. "Businesses were hurting, and I wanted to do everything in my power to support them," Ives said. What he couldn't have foreseen is how taking this opportunity to serve would, over the course of just two years, rapidly transform his career and earn him a spot on Forbes' 30 under 30 list among the world's top marketers. The 29-year-old entrepreneur and CEO started his professional journey as a marketing management major at Virginia Tech, completing his undergraduate degree in 2016.

He chose to enroll in Pamplin for the world-class education he knew he woul

Top ICT tenders: Eskom looks to customer engagement - ITWeb

Image
With president Cyril Ramaphosa's State of the Nation Address due to take place on Thursday, and rumours of an imminent cabinet shakeup abounding, it's unsurprising that National Treasury's eTender Portal is relatively quiet this week. That's not to say there's little of interest in the issue though. In fact, a notice from beleaguered Eskom is likely to attract attention from all sectors of society. In the tender, the utility states it wishes to replace its existing customer relationship management (CRM) solution, including the CS Online web portal and MyEskom customer mobile application. The tender documentation notes Eskom's existing applications and architecture are "fragmented with limited functionality and do not provide a holistic, omni-channel customer engagement experience that is seamless across channels (telephony IVR, web portal, mobile app)". What's more, it says it would like to move as many of its costly telephony interaction
