TMG’s client who provides shipping solutions for eCommerce companies, needed to grow its footprint to service the northeast United States.  The search began at the height of the COVID-19 shutdowns posing widespread challenges.  The client sought a state-of-the-art facility in a very competitive market with limited options.

The TMG Supply Chain Solutions team led by Dan Smolensky, SIOR kicked in the MTS (Maximizing Tenant Strengths) process.  It started with a clear definition of the requirement by all stakeholders, then an analysis of the client’s existing employees drive-times, then reviewing property options.  COVID-19 presented several unique challenges, none more difficult than the travel restrictions to inspect properties. from a very hands-on leadership team.  The TMG team created a virtual tour consisting of customized photos and videos of all the properties providing the client’s stakeholders the opportunity to understand and evaluate the properties and surrounding area without a physical tour.

Despite the challenge of few options, the client approved the TMG team to pursue every option in the market to create a competitive environment.  The result was a 176,000 SF lease in a new building with above standard building improvements including enhanced warehouse lighting, material handling systems, and higher end office finishes.
