CBRE Secures $55.5 Million in Financing for Acquisition of 100% Leased Warehouse in Gaffney, S.C.

CBRE Capital Markets’ Debt & Structured Finance has secured $55.5 million in acquisition financing on behalf of LRC Properties for Gaffney Distribution Center, a 1.03 million-sq.-ft. warehouse in Gaffney, South Carolina.

LRC Properties acquired the warehouse for $80.5 million in a sale-leaseback transaction with 3 years of term. The tenant was not disclosed. CBRE secured a 4-year floating rate loan with an option to extend through a life insurance company.


CBRE’s Brian Linnihan, Mike Ryan, Richard Henry and Taylor Crowder represented LRC Properties in the financing, which includes future funding.

“Gaffney Distribution Center is a special property with an exceptional tenant attached to it,” said Mr. Linnihan, Vice Chairman at CBRE in Atlanta. “The tenant recently expanded this facility to meet its growth needs and is committed to the location. We were able to secure financing by facilitating a relationship between our client and a lender who was able to offer flexible loan terms with additional funding.”

Located at 34 Commerce Drive, Gaffney Distribution Center was built in 1996 and is conveniently located just a mile of Interstate 85. It is fully leased to a single tenant. In 2021, the building was expanded by 486,486 sq. ft.

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.

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