Boehringer Ingelheim To Purchase Amgen's Fremont (USA) Facility

San Francisco, CA /PRNewswire/ - Global Real Estate Consultants has helped Boehringer Ingelheim to strengthen their global presence with a new facility in Fremont.

Global Real Estate Consultants was retained by Boehringer Ingelheim to provide insight and transparency in the Fremont commercial real estate market specifically related to their purchase of Amgen Inc's 350,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art manufacturing facility with pilot plant and process development labs. "We looked for an international tenant representation specialist to help us undertake a real estate acquisition in a new geographical area. We chose Global Real Estate Consultants because we felt that their level of expertise would best represent our interest," states Dr. Maier-Erbacher of Boehringer Ingelheim.

"We provided Boehringer Ingelheim with unrivaled objective information and transparency," says founder and company principal Erich Struzyk. "At the end we were able to provide savings for our client which they initially did not expect. Boehringer Ingelheim especially appreciated the fact that we do not represent landlords and thus avoided the typical conflicts of interest inherent in the brokerage market."
