Rosemont, IL December 13, 2021 – Brennan Investment Group (“Brennan”), a private real estate investment firm that acquires, develops, and operates industrial facilities throughout the United States, in partnership with Arch Street Capital Advisors (“Arch”), acting on behalf of a capital partner,  has announced the acquisition of a portfolio of eight industrial buildings totaling 1,633,716 square feet on 221.8 acres from a leading 100 year-old Tier 1 & Tier 2 critical parts supplier to the automotive, commercial truck, industrial, and agricultural industries. The buildings are utilized as foundries and will be leased back for 25 years.  The properties are located in the Midwest and Southwest and are spread across six states.
