JLL arranges sale of Class A industrial park in Tampa Bay's fastest-growing logistics corridor

MIAMI, July 10, 2026 – JLL Capital Markets announced today the sale of Manatee County Logistics Center, a two-building, 375,801-square-foot light industrial park strategically positioned in one of the Tampa Bay region's fastest-growing logistics corridors.

JLL represented the seller, a partnership between Imminent Ventures | Development and Barron Collier Companies, in the transaction. AEW Capital Management acquired the asset on behalf of a separate account client.

Delivered in 2024, the property is currently 75% leased to a diversified tenant base spanning specialty vehicle manufacturing, wholesale distribution and commercial building materials. The property's versatile design accommodates suite sizes ranging from 24,000 to 188,000 square feet across 16 divisible bays with 220-foot building depths, providing multiple value-creation pathways through lease-up of the remaining 95,271 square feet of available space.

Manatee County Logistics Center occupies a strategic position along U.S. Route 301 with direct frontage and immediate access to Interstate 75, enabling last-mile distribution capabilities to three of the nation's fastest-growing metropolitan areas: Tampa, Sarasota-Bradenton and Cape Coral-Fort Myers. The location provides access to 4.9 million people within a 90-minute drive and sits within 25 minutes of Port Manatee, 10 minutes from Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport and 45 minutes from Tampa International Airport.

The JLL Capital Markets Investment Sales team was led by Senior Managing Director Luis Castillo, Managing Director Cody Brais, Associate Taylor Osborne and Analysts David Orta Jr. and Mian Gian.

"The combination of stable cash flow from an investment-grade-backed anchor tenant and immediate upside through value-add lease-up drove exceptional interest from qualified investors, validating the strength within one of Tampa Bay's strongest submarkets where institutional-quality product commands significant premiums," said Castillo.
