NEW YORK CITY, Nov. 5, 2025 –  JLL Capital Markets announced today it secured $71.7 million refinancing for Gordon Logistics Center, a 1,039,018 square-foot, Class A advanced manufacturing facility in Adairsville, Georgia.

JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, Thor Equities, to secure a floating-rate, two-year loan (with three, one-year extension options) through Benefit Street Partners.

The property is a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility with top-of-the-line specifications and heavy utility infrastructure. Delivered in 2023, Gordon Logistics Center features 40-foot clear heights, 179 dock high doors, four drive-in doors, 200 trailer spaces (expandable to 306), 393 auto spaces (expandable to 567), a 185-foot truck court depth and 5,095 square feet of built out office space.

Gordon Logistics Center sits in a key industrial location servicing the Northwest Georgia I-75 corridor, the state's largest freight corridor. The property is well located for a variety of manufacturing and distribution focused tenants given its proximity to multiple residential nodes and connection to Atlanta, Chattanooga and the Appalachian Regional Port (direct rail connection with Port of Savannah).

The JLL Debt Advisory team was led by Senior Managing Director Peter Rotchford, Managing Director Bobby Norwood, Senior Director David Sitt, Director Christopher Pratt, Associate Hamp Gibbs and Analyst Streeter Simmons.

“This submarket was unlocked a few years ago when the county enacted the freeport inventory tax exemption. Development has been vigorous, and tenant demand is matching it thanks to the strategic location and deep, reliable labor pool,” said Norwood. “This, coupled with the lower number of groundbreakings over the past two years, will lead to success for the property in the coming years.”

“The refinancing of Gordon Logistics Center reflects Thor’s ongoing commitment to developing and managing high-performing assets that deliver long-term value for our partners and investors,” added Joe Sitt, Chairman of Thor Equities Group. “Industrial demand across the Southeast remains exceptionally strong and we look forward to further expanding our platform.”
