Posted : 09/07/2012

CBRE, Inc.’s Industrial Services team of Vincent Ranalli, Vice President, and Joseph McDermott, Senior Vice President, represented E.S. Kluft and Company in the lease of 99,000 SF of manufacturing/distribution space at 1104 North Park Drive, Hazleton, PA in the Humboldt Industrial Park.  The terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
 
E. S. Kluft & Company, maker and distributor of Aireloom and Kluft brand mattresses, has already begun to recruit 50 new employees and expects to start production in mid October. Kluft expects to double the number of jobs during the initial term of its lease. 
 
1104 North Park Drive is a newly constructed state-of-the-art production space that was built speculatively more than 3 years ago and had never been occupied.  Kluft selected Hazleton after the careful evaluation of several other markets.  According to Ranalli, Hazleton benefits from a top-quality labor force and an excellent location along I-81, with quick connections to I-80.
