Thanks to companies like United Stationers Supply Co., Rivergate Industrial District has been one of the most successful industrial submarkets in the Portland area this year. United Stationers recently entered into a long-term lease at Rivergate Corporate Center III for 195,510 square feet.
United Stationers is a leading North American wholesale distributor of business products, including office products, computer supplies, office furniture and facilities and maintenance supplies. It is a publicly traded company based in Deerfield, Ill. Through its 64 distribution centers, the company provides next to second-day delivery in the U.S. and Mexico.
“This is another strong example of a regional distribution use that has chosen excellent real estate at an excellent location,” said Steve Sieber, vice president of development management for Trammell Crow Co.
