Situated on more than 15 acres, the property is conveniently located in one of New Jersey’s prime distribution markets, offering easy access to the Port of New York/New Jersey, the New Jersey Turnpike, and Newark Liberty International Airport.

Richard & Sons’ desire to acquire the building came at the perfect time, making this transaction very ideal for us," said Vincent Dougherty, a Senior Investment Manager for The Hampshire Companies. "The building’s superior location and retail / warehouse features continue to be an excellent fit for P.C Richard’s business."
