MIAMI—In a move to capitalize on foreign investment into Miami, Transwestern has added more manpower to its South Florida team. Andrew Fernandez has joined as an associate.

Fernandez joins as Miami continues to benefit from global capital and Latin American influence, and continues to make incremental strides towards recovery. At the same time, the anticipation of the Panama Canal expansion has fostered economic growth, driving international trade and infrastructure in South Florida.

“The fluid requirements of our clients are increasingly more broad in order to maintain and succeed within today's business environment,” says Walter Byrd, managing director of Transwestern's South Florida offices. “Ensuring we are expertly providing the data and research critical for that advancement is a key to our growth strategy.”
