SteelCo USA Expands on the West Coast

West Coast Steel & Processing U.S.A. has acquired a 68,175-square-foot manufacturing facility in Chino, Calif., for $10.7 million. West Coast Steel divisions include SteelCo USA, Great Pacific Elbow, Mission Metals and Deluxe Building Products. Located at 13900 Sycamore Way, the property will serve as SteelCo USA’s sixth facility in the Inland Empire.
Built in 1986, the facility features 10,116 square feet of office space, 26-foot minimum clear height and eight ground-level drive-in doors with 1.83 acres of excess land. Its prominent location between Freeways 60, 71 and 83 provides excellent access to transportation routes serving Southern California.
Cushman & Wakefield’s Tim Pimentel, Chuck Belden and Kyle Kehner represented SteelCo USA in the transaction. “SteelCo purchased the property to support their expansion and it will be used to process and distribute product from one of their three divisions,” said Pimentel. “In their newly purchased facility, they will be better able to service their customers’ needs with added square footage.”
Prior to this acquisition, SteelCo USA most recently leased a 47,308-square-foot facility at 1350 Lexington Ave. in Pomona, Calif., in a deal also brokered by real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield. Combined with the newly acquired Sycamore Way, West Coast Steel & Processing and its divisions control approximately 300,000 square feet of manufacturing and warehouse space in the Inland Empire West.
