In one of the biggest leasing deals for the Richmond region in the past year, Jones Lang LaSalle announced that Hill Phoenix Inc. is taking 334,950 square feet at the former SuperValu distribution facility in Chester.
Hill Phoenix, based in Conyers, Ga., is a designer and manufacturer of refrigeration and electrical equipment sold primarily to the supermarket industry.  It’s taking over space that was vacated by International Paper Co. 

JLL’s Managing Director Charlie Polk and Assistant Vice President Scott Keeton in the company’s Richmond office represented SuperValu. “We are pleased to have assisted SuperValu backfill their space quickly so that there was no down time between tenants,” Polk saiid in a statement. “The negotiations had many moving parts, took almost a year to get done and had a very successful outcome for all involved.”

Located on West Hundred Road less than a mile from Interstate 95, the SuperValu Distribution Center is a 490,345-square-foot facility.
