UMBERTON, NJ — WHPounds Commer- cial Real Estate, LLC in joint venture with OPAS, Inc. recently represented J Grato Enterprises in the sale of its 120,000 s/f single tenant industrial building located in Lumberton. WH- Pounds brought in OPAS, Inc. to team up in the marketing of the property. WHPounds had initially represented J Grato Enterprises in the 2002 sale of the former FMP 40,000 s/f headquarters located in Marl- ton. Concurrently, WHPounds conducted a site search for a new building, which resulted in the purchase of a 12.7 acre lot on the Mount Holly By- pass in Lumberton and then facilitated the build-to-suit of an 80,000 s/f new distribution facility. In 2011, the 80,000 s/f facility was expanded to 120,000 s/f. Earlier this year, the owner requested WH- Pounds and OPAS to offer the property for sale on a national basis. “One of the strengths of our company is long standing client relationships.
