CONSHOHOCKEN, PA -- Preferred Real Estate Investments, Inc. ("Preferred") has acquired the former Giant Foods Headquarters Campus at 6400 Sheriff Road in Landover, Md. Located inside the Beltway, within one mile of Washington, D.C., the newly named National Commerce Park will yield over 1.5 million square feet of industrial space and approximately 350,000 square feet of modern office space on over 100 acres.
National Commerce Park will provide a much-needed supply of industrial and office space into the booming Washington-Baltimore corridor, which has a vacancy rate of less than five percent. Preferred plans to pursue both leasing and sales opportunities with the site.
"This is a key acquisition for Preferred," said Michael G. O'Neill, CEO of Preferred. "We believe that this project will generate hundreds of millions of dollars in investment, bring jobs to the region and give rise to a major revitalization of the site."
In 1936, Giant Foods opened the first "supermarket" in Washington, D.C. The Landover site was built in 1955 to serve as the company's headquarters and distribution center.
