South Korea-based CJ Logistics has signed a lease for a new industrial building in the Phoenix metro.

The global third-party logistics firm will occupy 331,683 square feet at the Commerce @ 303 in Glendale and use the facility to distribute products for a Fortune 100 company, according to the developer of the facility, California-based SteelWave LLC.

"We designed a state-of-the-art class A industrial building with 40-foot clear heights meant for a tenant like CJ Logistics, who will be distributing well-known consumer products throughout the Southwest," said Gregg Hall, managing director of acquisitions for SteelWave.

Andy Markham, a vice chairman with Cushman & Wakefield, said the company was considering several buildings but decided this was the best option and that Commerce @ 303 had several offers and letters of intent before CJ Logistics was secured. Markham, Mike Haenel, Phil Haenel, Brandon Borsheim, Foster Bundy, Kristin Schwartz and Katie Repine, all of Cushman & Wakefield represented the landlord in the lease.
