Apply Supply Chain and Industrial Expertise

Reducing occupancy costs and improving service and profitability across the supply chain are vitally linked to a company’s real estate. A property’s physical features, site location, and market conditions affect manufacturing, warehousing, transportation and delivery, and other logistical operations. Cresa’s supply chain specialists bring the requisite industrial expertise to help clients identify, evaluate, and resolve issues that can impact supply chain efficiency, including:

  • Financial implications of site and logistics
  • Location relating to supply chain efficiency
  • Physical requirements of the property including clear height, truck courts, docks, and rail
  • Interior efficiency of the manufacturing or product flow
  • Utility costs and facilities management
  • Intermodal capabilities, connections, and interdependencies
  • Economic incentives offered by city, county, or state entities

Enhance Supply Chain with Effective Real Estate Solutions

With seasoned insight, the technical tools, and a full spectrum of company resources available, Cresa’s supply chain specialists create and implement real estate solutions that meet business needs. Cresa builds long-term business relationships to advise clients on when and how to:

  • Expand or optimize distribution networks
  • Renegotiate or renew leases to drive down occupancy and unit costs
  • Relocate, reposition, or dispose of existing facilities
  • Build-to-suit specialized facilities
  • Initiate sale/leaseback negotiations

Align the Right Team and Tools to Facilitate Supply Chain Implementation
