Exeter Property Group picked up a 730,000-square-foot distribution center in Joliet, adding to the investment firm’s extensive industrial portfolio in the Chicago area.
Exeter acquired Laraway Distribution Center from Clarion Partners for roughly $45 million. Colliers International’s Jeff Devine and Steve Disse represented the seller, and announced the deal. Built in 2008, the Class A Laraway warehouse is located at 1151 East Laraway Road. It encompasses 34 acres and is fully leased to three tenants.
Distribution centers have been a hot commodity during the pandemic as e-commerce sales have surged. Companies like Amazon and others have leased and acquired last-mile facilities and other industrial properties statewide and across the country.
