JLL arranges $50M sale of Class A logistics center in Louisville, KY
CHICAGO, Jan. 30, 2026 – JLL Capital Markets announced today the $50 million sale of Bullitt II Logistics Center, a 436,716-square-foot Class A logistics center located at 251 Buffalo Run Rd. in Shepherdsville, Kentucky.
JLL represented the seller, Core5 Industrial Partners, in the sale to LaSalle Investment Management.
The property, delivered in the fourth quarter of 2022, represents best-in-class industrial construction designed specifically for modern logistics operations. This cross-dock distribution facility features 36-foot clear heights, fully circulating truck courts with up to 185-foot depths, 50 dock doors, 63 designated trailer parking spaces and over 14,000 square feet of office space including specialized training facilities.
Bullitt II Logistics Center is fully leased to a subsidiary of Dorman Products (NYSE: DORM), an aftermarket automotive parts supplier that manufactures and distributes components across undercar, engine, and body systems to HVAC, electronics and steering. The tenant serves the fast-growing aftermarket automotive industry, made up of both name-brand manufacturers and private repair shops across the county.
The facility's strategic location provides immediate access to I-65, positioning users for both regional and national connectivity. Within just 20-minutes of critical transportation infrastructure, including UPS Worldport, the world's largest fully automated package handling facility and the CSX Louisville Intermodal Terminal, this location has become a hot-spot for a variety of other well-known users such as Amazon, Walmart, Best-Buy and UPS, among others.
The JLL Capital Markets team representing the seller included Senior Director Ross Bratcher, Senior Managing Directors Sean Devaney and Dennis Mitchell and Managing Director Kurt Sarbaugh accompanied by the local JLL Brokerage partners including Senior Managing Director Powell Spears and Matt Hartlage.
"Louisville continues to be one of the most compelling industrial markets across the Midwest, and this sale demonstrates strong institutional appetite for quality assets in supply-constrained submarkets," said Bratcher. "Bullitt County's strategic location off I-65 coupled with a strong blue-collar labor pool has helped Louisville become a premier gateway location for national users due to its central proximity between the Southeast and Midwest markets."
