Bridge Net Lease, a Subsidiary of Bridge Investment Group, Acquires Manufacturing and Distribution Assets in Pennsylvania

Bridge Net Lease announced that it has acquired two off-market manufacturing and distribution assets located in Hazleton, PA, totaling 283,450 square feet. The assets, located at the intersection of two critical interstate highways, are 100% leased on 15-year absolute net leases with two additional 5-year options. The mission critical assets serve as the tenant’s sole US manufacturing and distribution facilities. The transaction was brokered by the CBRE National Partners Northeast team consisting of Mike Hines, Brian Fiumara, Brad Ruppel, Joe Hill, and Lauren Dawicki, along with Vincent Ranalli and Tony Gruenling.

“The investment is representative of our investment thesis of acquiring mission critical assets leased on a long-term basis to credit-worthy tenants in all material respects. The 15-year sale-leaseback of two manufacturing and distribution facilities for a packaging systems manufacturer should provide stable cash flow to our LPs. The properties sit directly on I-81 (40,000 cars a day) and are minutes away from the intersection of I-81 & I-80, providing an equidistant connection to New York City and Philadelphia (2.5 hours) and making them strategically located within a 4-hour drive to over 50 million people.” said Brandon Flickinger, Co-Chief Investment Officer of Bridge Net Lease.
