Real Estate Supply Chain Strategy

Real Estate

Real estate plays a vital role in overall supply chain strategy. Nearly every warehousing or distribution center decision features a real estate component. When properly aligned with corporate objectives, a well-executed real estate strategy can make significant contributions toward achieving operational and financial targets.

Exel is one of the largest commercial property owners in the United States, and we use our size, locations, and knowledge to your advantage. We have the expertise and resources to consider every operational and cost variable that could affect your real estate solution.

Location assistance We can help you find the right locations for your supply chain needs. With more than 400 acres of development land and a portfolio of 100 million square feet of distribution space in the Americas, we can craft a solution for any size program. We also have vast experience in negotiating real estate contracts, achieving governmental approval and, where possible, obtaining tax incentives.

Specific needs Do you require heightened security? Temperature-controlled areas? Close proximity to transportation hubs? We have a solution for nearly any specialized real estate need — staffed by experienced professionals who can respond to your unique logistics requirements fast.

Flexibility The flip side to our scale: we'll never push you into a location where you don't want to be. Some of our clients need less space, but still want the advantages of a full-service warehouse operation. Maybe seasonality dictates your space needs. We offer shared-use warehousing so you can leverage our scale for maximum efficiency.
