A global brand has secured a prime industrial facility at 67-71 Geddes Street, in an off-market deal brokered by Colliers' Richard Wilkinson, Steph Archer and Jonathan Mercuri, highlighting the increasing demand for owner-occupier opportunities as businesses seek greater financial certainty.
Colliers Director | Industrial & Logistics Richard Wilkinson said, "We're seeing a clear trend of tenants transitioning to owner-occupiers due to rising outgoings and rental costs. At the same time, landlords are choosing to sell as the cost of holding and leasing increases. This deal exemplifies the shift in market dynamics and the strong appetite for quality industrial assets in Melbourne's East."
The purchaser, an internationally recognised brand, is relocating from Noble Park to capitalise on the Monash employment hub's connectivity, workforce, and amenities.

The deal was brokered by Knight Frank's Stephen Kelly, Tom Ryan and Nick Bisset in conjunction with Colliers’ Jozef Dickinson, Philip Heberling and Alex Browne on behalf of the vendor, German Club Tivoli.
