Cushman & Wakefield announced today that Dedeaux Properties in a joint venture with Ledo Capital Group has closed on a purchase of a 2 acre site in Vernon, CA. The acquisition came in tandem with a lease to an undisclosed national restauranteur who owns and operates several concepts in multiple locations throughout Southern California and New York. Their new 46,968-square-foot (sf) headquarters facility is an expansion of their commercial kitchen space in Downtown Los Angeles.
Cushman & Wakefield’s Brandon Gill, Brandon Burns, and Jae Yoo represented the landlord in the transaction.
3520 E. Vernon Ave. is centrally located at the corner of East Vernon Avenue and Alcoa Avenue. The VEMzoned, state-of-the-art facility spans 2.06 acres of land and will feature 32’ minimum clearance, seven dock high doors, one ground loading door, and 47 parking spaces. Construction for the specialized food facility is currently underway and slated for completion in early 2020.
“As downtown gets redeveloped, a high volume of industrial tenants are relocating to Vernon, a user-friendly city that offers larger and more modern industrial facilities,” said Mr. Brett Dedeaux, President at Dedeaux Properties. “3520 E. Vernon was the perfect size and location to accommodate the tenant’s expanding business. We’re happy to have secured a well-established, thriving tenant along with the acquisition of the site in a highly soughtafter infill industrial market.”
“Ledo Capital has shared a long and successful relationship with the Dedeaux Properties team and is pleased to have structured this unique venture with an experienced first-class operator,” said Anthony J. Brent, Managing Partner at Ledo Capital Group.
“This is the fourth transaction that we have successfully completed with Dedeaux Properties in Vernon, each of which has been seamless and resulted in satisfied clients. We are very pleased to welcome another client to a Dedeaux Properties project,” said Mr. Gill, Executive Director at Cushman & Wakefield.
Dedeaux Properties’ development was Vernon’s only build-to-suit opportunity in 2018, a market with a 1.5% overall vacancy rate, according to Cushman & Wakefield Research.
