Newmark President &amp; Global Head of Industrial &amp; Logistics Capital Markets, Jack Fraker, and Senior Managing Director, Ryan Bellows, worked on behalf of the buyer<\/p>\n<p>This acquisition incorporates more than 2.5 million square feet of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialcafe.com\/industrial\/us\/tn\/memphis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Memphis industrial space<\/a> across 13 buildings and represents a significant expansion of the firm\u2019s holdings. It also reflects Provident Industrial\u2019s steadfast confidence in one of the nation\u2019s most strategically vital logistics markets.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most established distribution and logistics corridors in the country, Memphis is an essential global intermodal hub and is home to one of the world\u2019s busiest cargo airports.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMemphis occupies a truly unique position in the global supply chain,\u201d Van Lare said. \u201cIts role as a world-renowned logistics hub, combined with the strength of its intermodal infrastructure, creates the kind of sustained, long-term demand from high-quality tenants, like the ones in our new portfolio.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In alignment with Provident\u2019s disciplined approach to identifying and maintaining assets in high-demand, supply-constrained markets, the firm reportedly plans to hold the portfolio as a long-term investment.<\/p>\n<p>At the close of March, Memphis had the lowest average asking rent per square foot among major U.S. industrial markets. At the same time, the Tennessee market had one of the highest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialcafe.com\/blog\/national-industrial-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">vacancy rates in the Southern U.S.<\/a> (11.5%) and roughly 2.8 million square feet of new stock under construction.<\/p>\n<p>Adding to the firm\u2019s existing offices in Houston, Phoenix, Philadelphia, and its Dallas-based headquarters, the Memphis portfolio acquisition expands and strengthens Provident Industrial\u2019s footprint of high-performing logistics markets across the Southeast. This aligns with the firm\u2019s commitment to delivering durable, risk-adjusted returns for its investor partners.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Provident Industrial&#8217;s
