Arvada

What Arvada does

Arvada Corp is a privately held container construction company headquartered in San Juan, Puerto Rico (Calle Hoare, 00921), founded in 2016 and operating with 1–10 employees. The company repurposes steel shipping containers into finished residential and commercial structures — including homes, lofts, studios, kiosks, restaurants, classrooms, laboratories, and offices — using an integrated design-build process that delivers turnkey units with electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, cabinets, and interior/exterior finishes included as standard.

The product portfolio spans multiple residential models (RINCÓN, MI ENCÁNTO N1/N2, DREAM N1/N2, and PARADISE) at varying complexity and price points, alongside a custom commercial structures line for businesses and institutions. Arvada markets directly to end customers via phone (787-914-8034, 787-387-8033) and email ([email protected]), with Facebook and Instagram as the primary lead-generation channels. Pricing is quote-based per project, and the company has no disclosed resellers, channel partners, or third-party distribution.

Revenue mechanics are entirely project-based, one-time sales bundled into finished container structures (design fees, materials, and construction services). The company is not capitalized by external equity beyond a 2020 Parallel18 accelerator participation recorded as a $0 funding event, and no investor relationships, management team details, patents, awards, or financial disclosures are available. Operations are confined to Puerto Rico with no stated geographic expansion plans.
