The property is a strategic distribution center and will be the foundation for continued expansion of our clients business," said Perdeck.The warehouse/distribution facility was built in 1982 and is located on a 9.5-acre site at 2875 Pomona Boulevard near the 10/57 interchange within Los Angeles County. The propertys sub-tenant Yamamotoyama is the oldest tea company in Japan, having been family owned and operated since 1690.We were extremely pleased with the teams at Lee & Associates, CBRE and Aries Capital. The citys convenient access to major freeways continues to attract ecommerce, packaging and national retailers and a lack of new, high-quality supply has spurred all-time high rental rates, waiting lists for prospective leases and top-dollar, off-market transactions.
