GMB North America, a subsidiary of global auto parts manufacturer GMB, will relocate its headquarters and North America distribution operation from Middlesex County to Crow Holdings at 6A, located at 1804 River Road in Burlington, N.J. The 156,000-square-foot lease signing comes as Crow Holdings Development puts the finishing touches on the new, 294,000-square-foot, Class A industrial building.
Newmark’s Kyle Eaton and Rob Loderstedt represented GMB North America in the transaction. In operation since 1943, Japan-based GMB is one of the largest global original equipment and aftermarket automotive components manufacturers.
Cushman & Wakefield’s Jules Nissim and Kimberly Bach with NAI Mertz’s Scott Mertz and Theresa Amato serve as leasing agents for Crow Holdings at 6A.
Crow Holdings at 6A features every Class A industrial design feature and is poised to earn LEED certification.
“We welcome GMB North America to Crow Holdings at 6A; the GMB and Newmark teams have been a pleasure to work with through the lease process,” said Crow Holdings Development’s Clark Machemer, senior managing director. “Our new tenant shares our commitment to environmental citizenship, which – combined with the property’s outstanding location – made it a clear choice for their evolving space needs.”
Crow Holdings Development is the development platform of Crow Holdings, a privately owned real estate investment and development firm with 75 years of history, $33 billion of assets under management, and an established platform with a vision for continued success. The company specializes in multifamily and industrial development across high-opportunity markets in the United States, with a newly launched office development platform as well.
