Robinson Weeks Partners, an Atlanta-based real estate development and acquisition company, announced a new build-to-suit project with Cummins Inc. for 135,000 square feet at Gillem Logistics Center Building #300 in Forest Park, GA. The Class A industrial project is located in the south Atlanta industrial market. Cummins chose Gillem Logistics Center #300 as a location for its new regional distribution center, where it will provide parts to Cummins service locations and dealers in the southeast United States.

“When keeping your fleet on the road is central to your business, every moment counts. Our regional distribution center approach helps us better serve our customers, increasing our speed of fulfilment for parts orders. We piloted this approach here in Atlanta in 2012, and we’re thrilled with how it has worked,” said Samer Abughazaleh, President South Region, Distribution Business, Cummins Inc.

“We are very happy to have Cummins as a customer at Gillem Logistics Center Building #300,” said Forrest Robinson, CEO of Robinson Weeks Partners. “Gillem’s location, only 4.5 miles to the Atlanta Airport and less than two and a half miles to the Perimeter makes Gillem the perfect location for companies like Cummins that want to have great access to the airport, the interstates and Atlanta’s growing population.”
