Link Logistics has acquired four infill industrial buildings totaling 697,276 square feet across Dallas-Fort Worth and Atlanta, adding existing distribution properties to two of its largest U.S. markets.
The acquisition includes three Texas buildings totaling 448,276 square feet and a 249,000-square-foot property in Suwanee, Georgia.
Oxford Properties Group was the seller, according to independent reporting from FreightWaves. Link did not identify Oxford in its announcement, saying only that JLL represented the seller.
The largest property is a 294,795-square-foot building at 2800 Valley View Lane in Irving, Texas.
Link also acquired 1002 Avenue T in Grand Prairie, totaling 100,868 square feet, and 1920 Hutton Court in Farmers Branch, a 52,613-square-foot property.
The Atlanta-area component is 1075 Satellite Boulevard in Suwanee, along the Northeast I-85 industrial corridor.
Together, the four buildings give Link additional infill holdings in markets where it already operates at substantial scale.
The company says its Dallas-Fort Worth portfolio exceeds 34 million square feet, while its Atlanta holdings exceed 38 million square feet.
That makes the acquisition an incremental expansion of established regional portfolios rather than Link’s entry into new logistics markets.
It also does not create 697,276 square feet of new warehouse capacity.
The properties already exist, and no new construction or physical expansion has been announced as part of the transaction.
Link describes the buildings as last-mile assets, reflecting its investment focus on industrial properties close to population centers and transportation infrastructure.
That classification is the company’s description of the portfolio. The current tenant operations and shipment profiles needed to establish the precise logistics function of each building have not been disclosed.
The three Texas properties span the Upper Great Southwest, DFW Airport and Valwood submarkets.
The Suwanee building gives Link another asset along Atlanta’s Northeast I-85 corridor, where the company has also been buying property separately from the Gateway transaction.
Earlier in September, Link announced the acquisition of 460 Horizon Drive in Suwanee, a 230,530-square-foot industrial property.
That building is not part of the Gateway portfolio and should not be included in its 697,276-square-foot total.
The two transactions nevertheless show Link adding multiple properties in the Northeast Atlanta industrial corridor within the same month.
The Gateway acquisition also has a more complicated transaction history than its four-building composition might suggest.
JLL previously marketed the Gateway Infill Growth Portfolio for Oxford as a larger eight-property offering totaling 962,563 square feet.
That original package contained five Dallas-Fort Worth properties, two Chicago properties and one Atlanta asset.
JLL described the eight-property portfolio at the time as 94% leased to 15 tenants with an average 3.6 years of remaining lease term.
Link ultimately announced the acquisition of four buildings under the Gateway portfolio name: three in Dallas-Fort Worth and the Atlanta property.
Available sources do not establish whether the portfolio was formally divided before closing, whether other buyers acquired the remaining assets or whether those properties were withdrawn from the sale process.
The earlier eight-property occupancy and lease figures therefore should not be applied to the four buildings acquired by Link.
Current occupancy, tenant identities and lease expirations for Link’s four-building acquisition have not been disclosed.
Physical warehouse information is similarly limited across the portfolio.
The most detailed specifications available relate to 2800 Valley View Lane.
A recent property marketing document identifies the Irving building as 294,795 square feet with 36-foot clear height.
For a 105,255-square-foot portion marketed within that building, the document lists 24 dock-loading doors, 26 trailer spaces, LED lighting and ESFR sprinklers.
Those specifications apply to the marketed portion and should not be treated as whole-building figures or extended to the other three properties.
There is no comparable current specification set for the entire acquired portfolio.
Link has not disclosed portfolio-wide clear heights, dock counts, trailer parking, yard dimensions or pallet capacities.
Nor is there evidence that the acquisition includes a warehouse-automation program.
No AS/RS, robotics, AMRs, AGVs, automated sortation or other material-handling systems have been identified as part of the transaction.
The buildings also should not be characterized as cold storage. No refrigerated or frozen capacity has been established in the available property information.
Link’s rationale instead centers on location.
The company says it targets infill properties supported by long-term distribution demand and views Dallas-Fort Worth and Atlanta as markets benefiting from population growth, business investment, labor access and major transportation networks.
Those are Link’s assessments of the markets rather than demonstrated outcomes from the acquisition.
The company already has the scale to incorporate the buildings into large existing regional portfolios.
Link says its North American platform approaches 500 million square feet across approximately 3,000 properties, with more than 5,500 customers.
Against that backdrop, the Gateway acquisition is small relative to Link’s overall holdings but adds specific infill positions in two markets where the company has already accumulated tens of millions of square feet.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
The available sources also do not provide the acquisition price per square foot, capitalization rate, financing structure or closing date.
Link has not announced redevelopment, major capital expenditure or operational changes for the four properties.
For warehouse users, the next useful information will be property-level rather than portfolio-level: who occupies the buildings, how the space is configured and whether Link plans physical upgrades as it integrates the assets into its Dallas-Fort Worth and Atlanta holdings.
