Elion Partners acquires last-mile industrial asset in New Jersey for $29.7m

Elion Partners has acquired a 207,000-square-foot last-mile industrial asset located at 1000 Jefferson Avenue in Elizabeth, New Jersey, two miles from the Newark Liberty International Airport for $29.7 million.

“The New Jersey industrial market dynamics support our investment strategy of sourcing in supply-constrained locations with strong demographic demand drivers,” said James Lambert, Senior Managing Director of Industrial Investments at Elion. “We look forward to continuing the expansion of Elion’s logistics portfolio across the northeast.”

The firm plans to continue to pursue an investment strategy focused on first, middle, and last-mile industrial logistics asset, targeting core, infill coastal markets exhibiting positive growth and demographics.
