To achieve Coca Cola Refreshment’s real estate goals, Savills Studey negotiated a lease extension at 60 Deans Rhode Hall Road. The property encompasses a 230,000-square-foot, LEED Certified built-to-suit facility the company has occupied for approximately five years. In addition, due to the installation of a new, automated loading system, Coca Cola Refreshments leased an additional 45 acres of adjacent land at 90 Deans Rhode Hall Road. Forsgate Industrial Partners, the landlord of both 60 and 90 Deans Rhode Hall Road, agreed to improve the land for the company to use as both a parking and staging area. Forsgate was represented by Alex Klatskin, Steve Seiden and Andrew Moss, in-house.

Next, Coca Cola Refreshments extended its lease for 243,000 square feet at 118 Moonachie Avenue, in Carlstadt, NJ, an industrial property that features 25,000 square feet of office space and is used primarily as a distribution facility. The landlord, Prologis, was represented by Paul Rosen in-house.

Savills Studley then negotiated the sale of the beverage company’s 42,180-square-foot industrial site at 704 Route 35, in Neptune, New Jersey. The property includes 13 acres of land and was sold to M&M Development LLC for an undisclosed amount. Finally, Coca Cola Refreshments completed a sale of its 56,994-square-foot facility at 1500 Livingston Avenue in North Brunswick, New Jersey, which encompassed nine acres of land, also to M&M Development. M&M Development was represented by Jeff Lagowitz of Savills Studley.
