Cushman & Wakefield Arranges Sale of Fairview Industrial Park in Central PA

Buyer Recognized Value-Added Opportunity Driven by Appetite for Flex Space

Cushman & Wakefield Arranges Sale of Fairview Industrial Park in Central PA

LEWISBERRY, PA, June 9, 2017 - Cushman & Wakefield orchestrated the sale of six flex buildings that comprise Fairview Industrial Park from Allegiancy of Richmond, VA, to Louisville, CO-based Real Capital Solutions.

The buildings, 509, 515 and 540 Industrial Drive and 621, 629 and 631 Distribution Plaza, total 270,168 square feet and sold for $11.75 million, said Cushman & Wakefield Executive Director Gerry Blinebury, who represented Allegiancy and led the Central Pennsylvania team of Robert Yoshimura, Joseph Hill, Jr. and Pat McBride.


"Fairview Industrial Park is 80 percent leased and the properties have some older construction features, so the new owner will have opportunity to make improvements, making this a good value-add investment," Blinebury said. "This transaction demonstrates the increased appetite for flex product in central Pennsylvania from the investment community. The growth in bulk distribution centers is driving additional demand for well-located industrial flex products." Tenants also enjoy good access to major highways.

"The park is in the Central Pennsylvania submarket within the I-81/I-78 distribution corridor and offers exceptional visibility and direct access to I-83 at the Fairview exit. It is across the street from a regional FedEx hub, which is a primary driver for tenants to locate there," said McBride. "It has a very diverse mix of tenants, from construction companies to R&D operations to quasi-industrial, retail and some manufacturing."

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.

How green is your glue?

If you’re looking to make the packaging process more eco-friendly, the obvious place to start is with the box itself. And that’s exactly what Salt Lake City-based Packsize did when it made its initial foray into sustainable packaging back in 2002. That year, the company launched its first product, an innovative on-demand packaging system designed to reduce cardboard waste (and the need for filler material) by creating a right-sized box for each shipment.

Now the company is ready for the next step: greening up the glue.
