VITAL STATISTICS
AMZL LAX
9785 S. Bellanca Ave., Los Angeles
Deal Value: Confidential
This transaction stands out as one of the most significant industrial deals in Los Angeles County in 2025 due to its scale, complexity, and strategic importance. The property encompasses 18.9 acres and features a newly constructed 141,360 square foot logistics facility with a rooftop parking deck and extensive excess parking – an exceptionally rare configuration in the South Bay market, which is known for its high barriers to entry and limited availability of Class A industrial space.
The site’s transformation adds to its uniqueness. Previously a manufacturing facility, it was sold by CBRE National Partners in 2020. The owner then undertook a complete demolition and developed a built-to-suit facility for Amazon, delivering the project to market in 2024. This redevelopment required navigating entitlement, design, and construction challenges in a highly constrained infill location adjacent to LAX, one of the busiest airports in the world.
The brokerage team, led by Mike Longo and Barbara Perrier of CBRE, executed a highly competitive bidding process in one of the tightest industrial markets in the country. Despite economic headwinds and cautious investor sentiment, the team achieved the highest price for a single asset sold in Los Angeles County this year. This outcome reflects exceptional market knowledge, negotiation skill, and execution under challenging conditions.
