An auto parts retailer has taken more than 444,000 square feet of modern industrial space along the New Jersey Turnpike in Cranbury, in a deal arranged by The Blau & Berg Co. and JLL.
The business, Titanium Plus Auto Parts, is leasing the space at 26 Hightstown-Cranbury Station Road under a deal with Clarion Partners, according to a news release. The 444,470-square-foot facility will serve as a new East Coast distribution hub for the company — an ecommerce retailer that also has a brick-and-mortar footprint — providing cross-docking capabilities that will deliver major operational efficiencies, faster fulfillment times and expanded market reach.
Blau & Berg’s Alessandro (Alex) Conte, Jason Crimmins and Peter Murano Jr. represented the City of Industry, California-based user, which specializes in high-quality after-market automotive parts. JLL’s Nate Demetsky represented ownership in the long-term deal.
“Our team was excited to not only find a building that checked all the boxes for Titanium but were able to meet all of Titanium’s timing requirements,” said Conte, Blau & Berg’s president. “We are finding our tenant representation side of the business nearing 2022 highs and continue to be optimistic about the future. We extend our sincere thanks to the Titanium Plus team for their professionalism and collaboration, which made this transaction seamless and efficient for the landlord from start to finish.”
Located at Exit 8A, 26 Hightstown-Cranbury Station Road has 40-foot clear ceiling heights, 135 loading docks and four drive-in doors. The facility sits on 39.94 acres and is part of a multibuilding complex.
