Atlanta-based Seefried Industrial Properties acquired 75 acres in Oxnard from Sakioka Farms and AMS Craig, LLC. for an undisclosed amount. The buyer plans to develop a 1.5-million-square-foot fulfillment center for Amazon within Sakioka Farms Business Park.

Sakioka Farms’ Jeremy Sakioka says, “We are excited to kick off the first phase of our park with a regional Amazon distribution center and a locally owned, state-of-the-art, cold storage facility.”

Newmark’s John DeGrinis, SIOR, Patrick DuRoss, SIOR and Jeff Abraham, SIOR represented the sellers. Cushman & Wakefield represented the buyer.

DeGrinis says, “This transaction validates the strength of the Ventura County industrial market and its labor force and will significantly bolster the local economy, creating approximately 1,500 jobs.”
