Holland Flower Market purchased a 91k sf, Class A industrial facility in the City of Commerce for $34.1 mil ($375/sf). The freestanding building is located at 5555 East Slauson Ave, just east of the 710 Fwy and the Los Angeles River.
The state-of-the-art industrial facility features 32-foot minimum clear heights, a 10k sf, two-story office component, ESFR fire sprinklers and a fully secured truck court. The building includes six dock-high loading positions and one grade-level door, offering efficient functionality for high-throughput distribution operations.
Situated on approximately 3.5 acres in the City of Commerce, the property benefits from immediate access to Interstates 5 and 710 and proximity to Downtown Los Angeles, key rail yards and the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, positioning it as a highly strategic logistics hub.
Newmark Executive Managing Director Jeff Cannon, Senior Associate Sage Segal and Senior Managing Director Greg Tippin represented the buyer in the transaction. The acquisition supports Holland Flower Market’s continued expansion as a leading floral distributor serving major grocery retailers across the Western United States. The company has experienced significant growth in recent years and required a larger, more advanced facility to support increasing demand, operational scale and continued investment in automation.
“This acquisition reflects a broader trend across Southern California, where owner-users are capitalizing on unique opportunities created by market dynamics,” said Segal. “Over the past 24 months, softer leasing conditions have led some institutional owners to divest assets, creating a window for growth-oriented occupiers to secure high-quality facilities in prime infill locations. Holland Flower Market recognized this opportunity and moved decisively to establish a long-term operational hub in one of the region’s most critical logistics corridors.”
According to Newmark Research, the Los Angeles industrial market has demonstrated resilience amid shifting economic conditions, with vacancy holding at a relatively low 4.2% and leasing activity rebounding in the first quarter of 2026. The market continues to benefit from strong underlying demand drivers tied to port activity and consumer spending, while a sustained “flight-to-quality” trend has driven occupiers toward newer, high-performance facilities. At the same time, a 26% correction in infill contract rents from peak levels, combined with elevated concessions, has created more favorable conditions for tenants and owner-users alike, further supporting strategic acquisitions such as Holland Flower Market’s expansion in a highly supply-constrained, infill logistics corridor.
