Marble and Stone Firm Leases 94,000 SF in Pompano Beach

POMPANO BEACH, FL—Marble of the World has signed a 94,261-square-foot industrial lease at Pompano Business Center II here, becoming the first tenant at the newly-built property, for a new product warehouse and showroom facility.

The deal, reported by Cushman & Wakefield, will allow Marble of the World, a division of The Stone Collection, LLC, to have the new Broward County facility join the firm’s American Society of Interior Designers award-winning showrooms in Arizona, Texas, Utah and Florida. The new facility will bolster the brand’s reputation as one of the nation’s largest and most diverse suppliers of natural stone slabs.

The Stone Collection imports and distributes natural stone from over 35 countries worldwide and features nine locations in five states. In May of this year, The Stone Collection acquired Florida-based Marble of the World, adding three showrooms to its already existing locations in Denver, Dallas, Fort Worth, Phoenix, and Salt Lake City. At the time of the purchase, The Stone Collection, a subsidiary of The Adam Corporation/Group of College Station, TX, added three Florida showrooms in connection with the purchase in Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Palm City. Marble of the World was founded in 1985.

The Cushman & Wakefield industrial team of Chris Metzger, Richard F. Etner Jr., Christopher Thomson and Matthew G. McAllister represented building owner IDI Logistics in the lease negotiations. Colliers International’s Steve Wasserman and Erin Byers represented Marble of the World in the transaction.

“Pompano Business Center II provides ideal Turnpike visibility to a wide range of amenities immediately surrounding the site,” says C&W’s Metzger. “This location and building were uniquely suited to accommodate Marble of the World’s need for a new, larger, high-end showroom and distribution center at the crossroads for the Florida’s transportation network.”

Pompano Business Center II is a 133,814-square-foot building developed in 2019 on nearly 11.5-acre parcel located at 3001 West Copans Road. The property features built-to-suit office space, 32-foot clear heights, 92 auto parking spaces, 38 trailer stalls, 30 dock-high doors, two drive-in doors and a 130-foot truck court.

The property’s central location in the tri-county South Florida market offers access to Florida’s Turnpike and Interstate 95, allowing cost-efficient distribution throughout Florida and the Southeast U.S, Cushman & Wakefield reports.
