"Guadalajara's diverse industrial base and population density makes this a dynamic market and lends strength to the area," said Luis Gutierrez, AMB's managing director, Mexico. "The quality of our portfolio and our customer focus contributed to this recent leasing success. We are pleased to welcome this valued new customer to our development in AMB Los Altos Industrial Park."

"Summa Company required new distribution space in Guadalajara to accommodate its growth, and AMB provided the ideal solution because of their in-depth understanding of logistics real estate. AMB Los Altos Building 2's modern configuration is operationally efficient, and the facility is within a fully enclosed, access-controlled environment which is important to our business in Mexico," commented Carlos Ortega, Summa Company's director of operations.

AMB Los Altos Industrial Park is located in the well-established El Salto industrial submarket in Guadalajara, with rapid access to the main ring highway that connects the property to downtown Guadalajara and Guadalajara International Airport, approximately three miles from the site. The park totals more than 1.6 million square feet (152,700 square meters), of which approximately 1.2 million square feet (107,000 square meters) is operating and fully-leased.
