Microsoft plans to expand its footprint in Racine County with the purchase of 70 acres of land in the Village of Sturtevant.

The company plans to purchase the land from United Natural Foods which announced in March it was closing its facility at 3138 County Road H and laying off more than 400 workers.

After UNFI laid off workers and relocated, Microsoft began considering how to use that facility as a potential data center.

"Microsoft is considering the next phase of our data center investment in Racine County, and looks forward to beginning early and open conversations about a potential expansion into the Village of Sturtevant, adjacent to our holdings in Mount Pleasant," a Microsoft spokesperson said in a statement.

Microsoft has completed one massive hyperscale data center in Mount Pleasant and is constructing a second next to the first.

The company has been in contact with the Village of Sturtevant and is in the early stages of understanding what local ordinances or applications are needed to potentially make the facility into a data center.

It's unclear how much money Microsoft paid for the property or the size and scope of any potential data center in Sturtevant.

In July, Microsoft was sued by Sturtevant residents in federal court and the lawsuit cited comments and complaints received by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.

Microsoft is also evaluating 80 acres of land across three parcels currently owned by the Village of Mount Pleasant and Foxconn Technology Group.

The company recently changed its plans for its campus in Mount Pleasant, shifting from nine data centers to seven.
