Cushman & Wakefield of Oregon Inc. is serving as the broker in the property transaction with the Port. Iron Mountain is in the midst of a 60-day due diligence period. "We're still two months away from closing," a port source tells GlobeSt.com.
Boston-based Iron Mountain has been in the area since 1997 and already employs 125 people in the Portland area. The new warehouse will employ an additional 20 people. The company recorded nearly $1 billion in sales in 2000.
