OCALA, FL. – Transwestern Development Company (TDC®), in partnership with QuadReal Property Group, has leased Building One at Trailhead Logistics Park in Ocala, Florida, to a third-party logistics provider serving a global ecommerce company. The 943,426-square-foot, full-building deal is one of the largest industrial leases in the Central Florida market year to date.
“Trailhead Logistics Park combines a strategic interstate location with access to a skilled labor pool, making it a rare opportunity for large-scale distribution operations,” said Steve Kros, Regional Partner at TDC.
The Class A cross-dock facility features 40-foot clear heights, ESFR sprinklers, and abundant trailer and car parking. The site’s location along I-75, with direct access to Hwy 484, provides exceptional connectivity across Central Florida, including Tampa and Orlando.
