We are pleased to announce the successful lease of a 24,913 sq ft industrial unit at 125 Engelhard Dr (Unit 1) in Aurora, where we acted as exclusive representative for the tenant, a multi-national distributor of bath products.
For a distribution operation of this scale, maximizing both cubic storage efficiency and regional transit access is essential. Located within Aurora's established Commercial/Industrial district near Industrial Parkway and Vandorf Sideroad, the facility provides our client with strategic connectivity across York Region and the broader GTA logistics corridor.
The property features a highly functional layout that checked every operational box for a modern distribution user:
- Optimized Vertical Storage: 28-foot clear ceiling height, allowing for high-efficiency racking and maximum pallet density per square foot.
- Versatile Shipping Infrastructure: 3 truck-level shipping doors equipped with mechanical dock levelers, complemented by 2 drive-in doors for flexible loading and distribution.
- Turnkey Office Component: 2,714 sq ft of partially finished office space and two bathrooms, ideal for supporting administrative operations and product display.
Strategic Value Negotiation: As part of the lease negotiations, we secured the 1,418 sq ft rear mezzanine space rent-free for the duration of the lease, delivering immediate and significant occupancy cost savings for our client.
We are proud to have secured a prime facility that aligns perfectly with our client's supply chain and long-term growth objectives while negotiating favorable lease terms in a competitive market. Congratulations to our client on their new Aurora distribution center - it was a pleasure representing you on this transaction!
