PHILADELPHIA, PA - June 2, 2025 – JLL announced today that CBS Food Program has signed a 16,808-square-foot warehouse lease at Velocity Venture Partners-owned Huntingdon Glen Business Campus, located at 1830 County Line Road. The deal represents an increase of approximately 12,000 square feet – enabling the nonprofit organization to significantly enhance its mission of providing nutritious and dependable food to children throughout Greater Philadelphia.
“CBS Food Program’s mission is vital to the Philadelphia region, and by increasing its footprint, the organization will be able to expand its operations, including installing a commercial kitchen to serve freshly prepared food – a difference maker for kids,” said Eric Berkowitz, Senior Associate, JLL. “It’s a privilege to partner with an organization that is doing so much tangible good for the region.”
Owned and operated by Velocity Venture Partners, the space is slated to open in time for back-to-school season this fall. “Our team could not be more excited to welcome CBS Food to the Velocity family as they expand their capabilities to provide vital resources to our hometown communities. Our construction team is hard at work to deliver the turnkey unit to CBS in the coming weeks, and we look forward to watching the organization continue to grow,” said Zach Moore, Founding Partner, Velocity.
“Our whole team is thrilled about our new space in Huntingdon Glen,” said Jonathan Shahar, Chief Executive Officer, CBS Food Program. “Last year alone, we served more than 2,000,000 free meals to children in the Philadelphia area.
