Colliers Arranges Sale of 689,614 SF Distribution Center in Chattanooga

CHATTANOOGA, TENN. — Colliers has arranged the sale of a 689,614-square-foot, single-tenant distribution center located at 960 Wauhatchie Pike in Chattanooga. New York-based W. P. Carey purchased the single-tenant property from locally based logistics firm Kenco Group for an undisclosed price. Tyler Ziebel, Jack Rosenberg, Fred Regnery, Todd Steffan and Andy Cates of Colliers brokered the deal. The property is fully leased to Chattem Chemicals Inc., a subsidiary of the French multinational pharmaceutical company Sanofi Aventis. The company recently signed a long-term lease extension at the facility, which W. P. Carey plans to expand by 120,000 square feet. The warehouse currently features 79 docks, 30-foot clear height ceiling and 10,000 square feet of office space. Once the $18 million expansion is complete, the facility will be Sanofi Aventis’ largest distribution facility in the world, according to Colliers.
