Bussel Realty Corp. on Wednesday announced the successful sale of 203 Egel Avenue in Middlesex—a 6,080-square-foot specialized food production facility. The property was purchased by POC Realty LLC for $3.2 million.
Eric Koons, vice president at Bussel Realty Corp., represented both the seller, 203 Egel Avenue LLC, and the buyer, POC Realty LLC, in the transaction.
Certified by the USDA, FDA, and the New Jersey Department of Agriculture, the site allows for immediate food production and distribution without the significant time and capital investment typically required for retrofitting.
“Fully equipped, recently upgraded, and regulatory-approved food production facilities are unheard of in today’s market,” Koons said. “The buyer immediately recognized the value of acquiring a turnkey facility in a strategic location with exceptional access to transportation, labor, and distribution channels.”
Following an extensive retrofit in 2022, the facility features high-end infrastructure designed for high-volume operations:
- Production capabilities: Includes dedicated production areas, industrial-grade ovens, and substantial freezer and refrigeration capacity.
- Upgrades: Recent capital improvements include a new roof, extensive floor drainage, upgraded electrical and gas service, and the installation of backup generators.
- Design: The 6,080-square-foot site features 16-foot clear ceiling heights, one tailboard loading position, one drive-in door, and approximately 1,000 square feet of office space.
The property’s location in Middlesex offers major logistical advantages for food manufacturing and distribution. It is situated within close proximity to major thoroughfares, including Interstate 287, the New Jersey Turnpike, and Interstate 78. This positioning provides residents and businesses with access to Port Newark-Elizabeth and Newark Liberty International Airport within approximately 35 minutes, facilitating both regional and national distribution.
POC Realty LLC, a New Jersey-based real estate holding company, intends to use the site to expand its existing food manufacturing and distribution operations throughout the Northeast.
