General Bottle Supply Company Takes 20,000 SQFT in San Leandro

(EDITOR’S NOTE: The lease for the light industrial space was for 20,550 square feet, lasting 122 months.)

Walnut Creek (June 19, 2019) – TRI Commercial/CORFAC International announced today it has secured a lease for the entire building located at 1910 Fairway in San Leandro to long term Oakland tenant General Bottle Supply, a west coast bottle distributor. Edward F. Del Beccaro, executive vice president and East Bay regional manager, and Jaimi Trunick, industrial associate, represented the landlord, Ray and Liz Gallagher. The Gallagher’s, owners and entrepreneurs, are most recognized for the popular Bay Area restaurant chain, Scott’s Seafood. General Bottle Supply was represented by Kolby Mitnick of Townsend Commercial.

“Despite rising industrial rents Bay Area-wide, we still see a number of traditional warehouse tenants wanting to remain and continue doing business in the East Bay. The warehouse property is a rare find, well-located with over an acre of paved and lit yard,” said Del Beccaro.

According to Del Beccaro, the San Leandro submarket has become increasingly popular with technology and maker-tech tenants over the past several years with the expansion of its broadband network through Lit San Leandro. Historically warehouse and light manufacturing tenants propagated the area as a secondary ring outside to Oakland’s main distribution and manufacturing hub. However, with Oakland rents more than 10% higher, many of these tenants are looking elsewhere but still seeking functional space close to main highway trucking arteries and the Port of Oakland.  The San Leandro warehouse market currently sits at a 6% vacancy rate.
