On behalf of Ownership, Jones Lang LaSalle America, Inc. (“JLL”) has been retained as the sales representative for the Old Augusta Commerce Center Building 1 (the “Property”). This state-of-the-art, Class-A distribution facility spans 442,606 SF and is situated in the thriving industrial market of Savannah, Georgia. Boasting a prime location just 10 miles away from Savannah’s Garden City Terminal and in close proximity to the key I-95 & I-16 intersection, the Property offers exceptional accessibility to Savannah’s major logistical thoroughfares.
The Property is fully leased with a remaining term of 8.3 years and annual escalations of 3.50%. The lease is guaranteed by Loctek Ergonomic Technology Corporation (SZSE: 300729, 2023 Rev $545 million) – a prominent manufacturer of ergonomic desk solutions. Lecangs, a 3PL subsidiary of Loctek, operates within the building and provides warehousing and logistics services for Loctek.
The industrial market in Savannah is experiencing remarkable growth, fueled by record cargo volumes at the Port, expansion projects, and extensive logistical connectivity. In terms of tracked tenant demand as a percentage of inventory, Savannah ranks first from 2022 through 2023. In 2023 alone, the market witnessed a net absorption of 13.2 million square feet, placing Savannah second in terms of percentage of inventory and more in total than Atlanta. The strong performance has continued into 2024 H1, with over 9.8 million square feet of leases signed (up 156% year-over-year), roughly 730,000 sf shy of 2022's record volume at the mid-year mark.

REIT Share - These assets are held by entities taxable as REITs, and an acquisition of the assets will need to be structured as acquisition of the shares of the REITs, instead of an acquisition of the underlying real estate. Ownership has not established an asking price for the REIT shares, but is a market-oriented Seller with expectations that are consistent with the quality of the assets and the unique nature of the opportunity.
