The Sanford Logistics Center is a newly constructed, 113,149 square foot building with the modern characteristics desired by the current e-commerce tenants.

"Expanding our Orlando portfolio with Sanford Logistics Center adds another last mile location in a key market for Dalfen," says company President and Chief Investment Officer, Sean Dalfen.
