AVENEL, NJ —Sitex Group will develop a spec 200,000 state-of-the-art cross-dock distribution facility on the 20-acre site it acquired at 215 Blair Rd. in the Exit 12 submarket in New Jersey. The property already includes a 175,000-square-foot warehouse facility with four acres of trailer parking that the firm will renovate.
"This was a rare opportunity in one of the most active submarkets in the country," said Blake Chroman, a senior vice president at Sitex. "Inventory is tight while new construction is extremely rare. We're excited to be able to add a property with so much potential to our growing portfolio in Northern New Jersey."
Sitex, known for converting older, functionally obsolete properties into modern, core assets, will put its expertise to work at the former C&S Wholesale Grocers/White Rose Foods warehouse, immediately embarking on a multimillion dollar rehab project. When complete, the facility, which has 24' to 32' ceiling heights, ESFR sprinkler system and 37 loading docks, as well as a truck maintenance garage on site, will be transformed into a contemporary, distribution center featuring a new roof, façade and docks; new HVAC and lighting systems; repaved parking and loading areas; and updated office space.
