A wholesale grocery company bought a 122,000-square-foot industrial property in Hialeah for a record $11.6 million.
Thirty Six Ninety LLC sold the property at 3690 Northwest 62nd Street to Alfoncito Investments. The buyer is tied to Rex Discount wholesale grocery, which will occupy the building, according to a press release.
Thirty Six Ninety is managed by Kurt Marshall, and Alfoncito Investments is managed by Jose Carrera. Miami-Dade County records show that Alfoncito Investments also recently sold a warehouse in Miami for $5.2 million.

According to Transwestern, the sale price set a record for a vacant building in the submarket. It sold for $95 per square foot.
