Feinblum sets warehouse/distribution center division
Clint Engel -- Furniture Today, April 2, 2006
Plainview, N.Y. — Julius M. Feinblum Real Estate is launching a division to find and broker warehouse and distribution center locations for furniture suppliers and retailers.
Steve Halper, who joined Feinblum this past fall, is president of the new warehouse/distribution division. A 36-year veteran of retailers Seaman's Furniture and Levitz, he held various merchandising and operations management posts, including warehouse/distribution, customer service and real estate. Halper is a licensed New York State real estate salesperson.
The division will work out of Feinblum's Plainview headquarters, and possibly its Santa Monica, Calif., office.
President Julius Feinblum said he sees big growth potential for the new division, which will assist retailers and suppliers looking for warehouse space or land to buy or lease to build new warehouses.
He said the division will partner with leading trucking companies in the furniture industry to provide the logistics support and information that some clients will need.
Feinblum wouldn't name the trucking companies because he is still in negotiations.
His decision to launch the division was driven by growing furniture imports and the related warehousing/distribution needs.
The company already does warehouse real estate deals for existing clients, but the new division will seek new business, Feinblum said.
