Situated on over four acres, the property is conveniently located in close proximity to one of New Jersey’s prime distribution markets offering easy access to the N.J. Ports and the Newark Liberty International Airport. Upon acquisition, Polarome International, Inc., a worldwide manufacturer and distributor of essential oils, aroma chemicals, fragrances, flavors, perfumes and raw materials, entered into a lease with Hampshire.
