GALT, CA—EL & EL Wood Products Corp has acquired a 20-acre industrial site in Galt, a city approximately 20 miles south of Sacramento along Hwy. 99. Cushman & Wakefield's Sacramento-based team of Matt Cologna, Bryce MacDonald and Dave Nicholson represented the seller, KMS Development. EL & EL Wood Products was represented by Tommy Ponder of Cable & Kilpatrick.

With the transaction, EL & EL Wood Products is set to construct a 220,000-square-foot wholesale distribution center for its line of moldings, doors and other building materials. The company, which currently employs 255 people and manages its own fleet of trucks throughout California, Nevada and Arizona, will bring 75 new jobs to the City of Galt.

“This is a win-win for everyone involved,” said Cologna. “The city will get new jobs – the City of Galt was an active participant in this transaction – and EL & EL, which initially expanded into Northern California in 2005, will have a building in which they can consolidate all of their Northern California distribution under one roof.”
